EDITORS COMMENTS

Alessandro Volta (1745-1827), a renowned Italian physicist, left an indelible mark on the world of science with his groundbreaking discoveries in electricity. One such discovery was captured in an intriguing engraving from 1856 titled "Galvanization of the corpse of a hangman with the pile of Alessandro Volta: under the influence of electricite, the corpse seems to come back to life. " This captivating image depicts how Volta's invention, known as the electric battery or electro-motor, had transformative effects even beyond its intended purpose. In another scene depicted in this collection, we catch a glimpse of a courtyard adorned with a statue honoring Alessandro Volta. Erected in 1878, this sculpture stands tall as a testament to his significant contributions to scientific progress. It serves as a constant reminder that innovation and dedication can leave an enduring legacy. Volta's brilliance did not go unnoticed by influential figures of his time. In 1801, he presented his revolutionary creation to consul Napoleon Bonaparte himself. The meeting between these two visionaries must have been awe-inspiring - witnessing history unfold before their very eyes. The passion for experimentation burns brightly within Volta's soul as we observe him engrossed in scientific exploration. A scientist is caught in action; it is likely our protagonist himself delving into yet another fascinating experiment that pushes boundaries and expands human understanding. His most famous invention, the voltaic pile or electric battery invented in 1800, revolutionized electrical studies and paved the way for future advancements. These piles are showcased at Milan's Museum of Science and Technology - silent witnesses to Volta's ingenuity and unwavering pursuit of knowledge. Another remarkable moment immortalized through art captures Alessandro Volta presenting his capacitor concept to none other than Napoleon Bonaparte. Engaging with one another on matters pertaining to electricity demonstrates both men's intellectual curiosity and their shared desire to harness the power of this newfound force.
