Jean Bernard Leon Foucault (1819-1860), French physicist
Jean Bernard Leon Foucault (1819-1860), French physicist. Foucault measured the velocity of light and, in 1851, proved the rotation of the Earth on its axis using his pendulum. He invented the gyroscope (1857), and improved the design of the reflecting telescope

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the remarkable Jean Bernard Leon Foucault, a renowned French physicist of the 19th century. Known for his groundbreaking discoveries and inventions, Foucault made significant contributions to the field of science. One of his most notable achievements was measuring the velocity of light, which revolutionized our understanding of its fundamental properties. In 1851, he astounded the world by proving the rotation of Earth on its axis using a simple pendulum experiment. This discovery solidified his reputation as an ingenious scientist with an insatiable curiosity about our planet's workings. Foucault's inventive mind also led him to create the gyroscope in 1857, a device that has since found countless applications in various fields. Furthermore, he improved upon the design of reflecting telescopes, enhancing humanity's ability to explore and understand celestial bodies. In this portrait captured through wood engraving technique, we see Foucault as a serious yet contemplative figure. His dedication to unraveling scientific mysteries is evident in his piercing gaze and composed demeanor. Jean Bernard Leon Foucault remains an influential figure in both astronomy and physics. His legacy continues to inspire generations of scientists worldwide who strive for innovation and seek answers about our universe's wonders.
