EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the eminent German chemist, Christian Friedrich Schonbein, circa 1898. Known for his groundbreaking research on ozone, Schonbein's scientific contributions were truly remarkable. Born in 1799 and passing away in 1869, he dedicated himself to unraveling the mysteries of chemistry during the 19th century. In addition to his work with ozone, Schonbein delved into various other areas of study within the chemical industry. Notably, he played a pivotal role in developing gunoctton – an explosive compound used extensively in firearms – in 1846. His expertise and innovative mindset greatly influenced industrial chemistry and propelled advancements within the armaments industry. The portrait captures Schonbein's intellectual prowess and determination as a scientist. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this engraving that was created by an unknown artist. As we gaze upon this image from Heritage Images' Oxford Science Archive collection, we are reminded of Schonbein's significant contributions to science and his lasting impact on society. Let us honor Christian Friedrich Schonbein's legacy as a brilliant chemist whose tireless pursuit of knowledge forever shaped our understanding of chemistry and its applications across industries.
