EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the distinguished figure of Alexander Dallas Bache, an eminent American geophysicist from the 19th century. Born in 1806, Bache's lineage traced back to Benjamin Franklin himself, adding to his illustrious reputation. In 1843, he was appointed as the superintendent of the US Coast Survey, a position that showcased his expertise in geophysics. Bache's contributions to science were highly regarded during his time. He played a pivotal role in establishing the American National Academy of Sciences and served as its first President from its inception in 1863 until his passing. This portrait engraving showcases Bache's commanding presence with a full beard adorning his face—a symbol of wisdom and authority. The image exudes professionalism and intellect, reflecting Bache's dedication to advancing scientific knowledge within America. His work with the US Coast Survey allowed him to contribute significantly to mapping coastlines and understanding Earth's physical properties. As we gaze upon this print by Alexander Dallas Bache himself (not related to any company), we are reminded of the remarkable achievements made by individuals like him who shaped our understanding of geophysics during that era. It serves as a testament not only to Bache's legacy but also highlights America’s rich history in scientific exploration and discovery.
