Lavoisier respiration experiment, 1770s

Lavoisier respiration experiment, 18th century. French chemist Antoine Lavoisier (1743-1794) in his laboratory with his wife and his assistants. His wife (Marie-Anne Pierrette Paulze, 1758-1836) is taking notes at far right. They married in 1771 when she was 13, and over the years she helped her husband with much of his scientific work. The experiment is one that Lavoisier carried out in the 1770s on respiration, with the subject (far left) breathing air from a sealed system of pipes and containers. This is a copy of an artwork held at the Musee du Conservatoire National des Arts et Metiers, Paris, France

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the 18th century and into the laboratory of renowned French chemist Antoine Lavoisier. The scene is bustling with activity as Lavoisier's wife, Marie-Anne Pierrette Paulze, diligently takes notes at the far right of the image. Married at a young age of 13 in 1771, Marie-Anne became an integral part of her husband's scientific endeavors throughout their marriage. The focus of this particular experiment is respiration, as depicted by the subject on the far left who breathes air from a sealed system of pipes and containers. Lavoisier was known for his groundbreaking work in chemistry and played a pivotal role in disproving the phlogiston theory. The monochrome artwork beautifully captures the essence of this historical moment, showcasing Lavoisier's dedication to research and experimentation. Glassware and other equipment fill every corner of his laboratory while oxygen plays a crucial role in unraveling mysteries related to respiration. This remarkable piece is housed at Musee du Conservatoire National des Arts et Metiers in Paris, France - a testament to its significance within scientific history. As we gaze upon this image, we cannot help but appreciate both Antoine Lavoisier's contributions to chemistry and his wife's unwavering support throughout their shared journey.
