This print takes us back to the year 1760, where English artist Benjamin Wilson conducted a groundbreaking experiment with electricity. The scene unfolds within the grandeur of the Pantheon, located on Oxford Street in London. As we gaze at this historical snapshot, we are transported to an era when scientific exploration was met with awe and curiosity. In this mesmerizing image, Wilson stands amidst his apparatus, surrounded by a web of wires and electrical contraptions. His face reflects both determination and excitement as he delves into uncharted territory. With his pioneering spirit, Wilson pushes the boundaries of knowledge and unlocks the secrets of electricity. The Pantheon itself serves as a fitting backdrop for this momentous occasion. Its neoclassical architecture echoes the intellectual pursuits that took place within its walls during that time period. This iconic landmark becomes witness to Wilson's experiments as it silently observes history in the making. As we contemplate this photograph, we cannot help but marvel at how far science has come since then.
