EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed Joseph Black, a renowned Scottish chemist of the late 18th century. The artist, C Cooke, skillfully captures Black's distinguished features, highlighting his piercing gaze and prominent eyebrows. Black's significant contributions to the field of chemistry are widely recognized and celebrated. In 1756, he was appointed as Professor of Anatomy and Chemistry at the University of Glasgow before later becoming Professor of Medicine and Chemistry at the University of Edinburgh in 1766. It was during his time in Edinburgh that Black made one of his most groundbreaking discoveries - carbon dioxide gas. Describing this newfound gas as "fixed air". Black revolutionized our understanding of chemical reactions by introducing quantitative analysis into chemistry. His meticulous experiments laid the foundation for modern quantitative chemistry practices that we still rely on today. Considered by many as the father of quantitative chemistry, Joseph Black left an indelible mark on scientific progress through his rigorous research and innovative thinking. This portrait serves as a testament to his intellectual prowess and enduring legacy within both Scotland and the wider scientific community.
