John Dalton, English chemist, c1834 (1902)
John Dalton, English chemist, c1834 (1902). As a Quaker, Dalton (1766-1844) could not attend an English university, so supported himself by teaching. He studied gases, and in 1808 proposed his atomic theory. In 1794 he was the first to describe colour blindness (Daltonism) from which both he and his brother suffered. He kept a meteorological diary for many years and amassed some 200, 000 observations

EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph print showcases the esteemed John Dalton, an English chemist who made significant contributions to the field of science in the 18th and 19th centuries. Born into a Quaker family in 1766, Dalton faced limitations due to his religious beliefs, preventing him from attending an English university. Undeterred, he supported himself through teaching while pursuing his passion for scientific exploration. Dalton's groundbreaking work centered around gases, leading him to propose his revolutionary atomic theory in 1808. However, his contributions extended beyond chemistry as he became the first person to describe color blindness or "Daltonism" a condition that affected both him and his brother. In addition to his scientific pursuits, Dalton maintained a meticulous meteorological diary throughout many years of observations, amassing an impressive collection of over 200,000 records. This dedication showcased not only his commitment to understanding the natural world but also highlighted his expertise as a pioneering meteorologist. The portrait captures Dalton with spectacles perched on his nose—a symbol of wisdom and intellect—emphasizing both his scholarly nature and keen eyesight despite suffering from color blindness. His stoic expression reflects the determination that propelled him forward in advancing scientific knowledge during this transformative period in British history. This lithograph print serves as a testament to John Dalton's remarkable achievements as a scientist and offers viewers a glimpse into the life of this influential figure whose impact continues to resonate within the realms of chemistry and meteorology today.
