John Dalton, British chemist C017 / 7114
John Dalton (1766-1844), British chemist, physicist and meteorologist. Daltons atomic theory that explained chemical changes was published in A New System of Chemical Philosophy (1808). Daltons law (1801) concerned partial pressures for gases. He also worked on colour blindness (1794). In his hand are spheres with his symbols representing chemical elements (sulphur, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, calcium). Dalton was Fellow of the Royal Society (1822), corresponding member (1816) and foreign associate (1830) of the French Academy of Sciences, and honorary DCL (Doctor of Civil Law) at the University of Oxford (1832)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed John Dalton, a renowned British chemist, physicist, and meteorologist. Known for his groundbreaking contributions to science, Dalton's atomic theory revolutionized our understanding of chemical changes. His seminal work, "A New System of Chemical Philosophy" published in 1808, laid the foundation for modern chemistry. In this portrait from the late 18th or early 19th century, Dalton holds spheres adorned with symbols representing various chemical elements such as sulphur, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, and calcium. These symbols epitomize his profound understanding of atomic composition and its role in chemical reactions. Dalton's brilliance extended beyond chemistry; he also made significant strides in other scientific disciplines. Notably, he conducted pioneering research on color blindness in 1794. Furthermore, his law concerning partial pressures for gases (Dalton's Law) established him as a leading figure in meteorology. Recognized for his exceptional achievements and intellectual prowess by prestigious institutions worldwide, Dalton was elected Fellow of the Royal Society in 1822 and became a corresponding member of the French Academy of Sciences in 1816. In addition to these accolades came an honorary Doctorate of Civil Law at the University of Oxford in 1832. This remarkable artwork captures not only Dalton's likeness but also represents his immense contributions to physical chemistry and physics during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. It serves as a testament to his enduring legacy within scientific circles across Europe and beyond.
