Spallanzani (1729-1799) worked on bacteria, disproving spontaneous generation, on digestion, where he was first to use the term gastric juice, and on respiration, where he proved that tissues use oxygen and produce carbon dioxide. He was a pioneer of Vulcanology. From Vies Des Savants: Illustres du XVIIIe Siecle by Louis Figuier. (Paris, 1874)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned Italian biologist, Lazzaro Spallanzani, in 1874. A pioneer of his time, Spallanzani (1729-1799) made groundbreaking contributions to various scientific fields. His tireless research on bacteria led him to disprove the theory of spontaneous generation, revolutionizing our understanding of microbiology. Spallanzani's work extended beyond bacteria as he delved into the realm of digestion. He was the first to coin the term "gastric juice" shedding light on this crucial aspect of human physiology. Additionally, his investigations into respiration unveiled that tissues utilize oxygen and produce carbon dioxide—an essential discovery that laid the foundation for further advancements in respiratory science. Not limited to biology alone, Spallanzani also left an indelible mark in vulcanology—the study of volcanoes—showcasing his multidisciplinary approach towards scientific exploration. Captured with remarkable detail by Louis Figuier in 1874 for "Vies Des Savants: Illustres du XVIIIe Siecle" this wood engraving portrays a man whose intellect and dedication propelled him forward in his quest for knowledge. The monochrome aesthetic adds a sense of timelessness to this portrait, emphasizing Spallanzani's enduring legacy. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded not only of Spallanzani's significant contributions but also of the countless scientists who have shaped our understanding through their unwavering pursuit
