EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures Antoine Laurent de Jussieu (1748-1836), a pivotal figure in the history of French natural science. A renowned botanist and taxonomist, Jussieu's contributions to the field of botany were groundbreaking and influential. He is most famous for establishing the Jussieu system of plant classification, which was widely used in Europe and beyond for over a century. Born in Paris, Jussieu was the son of a botanist, and he showed an early interest in the natural world. He began his studies at the Jardin du Roi (now Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle), where he worked closely with his father and other prominent naturalists of the time. In 1778, he was appointed professor of botany at the École des Mines, a position he held until his retirement in 1812. Jussieu's taxonomic work focused on the classification of flowering plants, and he published several influential works on the subject, including "Genera Plantarum" (1789) and "Tabulae Generum Plantarum" (1789-1805). His system of classification was based on the morphology of flowers, and it provided a more logical and consistent way of organizing the vast array of plant species then known to science. Despite his many accomplishments, Jussieu's life was not without challenges. He faced financial difficulties and personal hardships, including the loss of his wife and several of his children. Nevertheless, he continued to work tirelessly on his taxonomic studies, leaving a lasting legacy in the field of botany and natural science. This portrait, taken in 1836, provides a fitting tribute to a man who dedicated his life to the study of the natural world. With his keen intellect and unwavering dedication, Antoine Laurent de Jussieu remains an inspiration to generations of botanists and naturalists.
