EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the bronze medallion of Antoine Laurent de Jussieu, created by renowned sculptor David d'Angers. The profile portrait showcases the distinguished features of this esteemed scientist, known for his significant contributions to botany. Antoine-Laurent de Jussieu (1748-1836) proposed a groundbreaking natural classification system for flowering plants, solidifying his place in botanical history. As the nephew of Bernard de Jussieu, he inherited a passion for plant study and went on to become an influential figure in the field. In this low relief medal, we see a balding yet wise-looking elderly man with a serene expression. The tondo shape adds elegance to the composition while emphasizing his head as the focal point. This intimate portrayal reveals not only his dedication to science but also hints at his profound knowledge and experience. The print beautifully captures every intricate detail of this remarkable artwork housed at Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France. It is a testament to Bridgeman Images' commitment to preserving and sharing fine art from around the world.
