Glass Frame : Claude Louis Berthollet, French chemist
Mounted Prints from Heritage Images
Claude Louis Berthollet, French chemist
Claude Louis Berthollet, French chemist. Berthollet (1748-1822) helped Antoine Lavoisier in his research into gunpowder and in devising the nomenclature that underpins the modern system for naming chemical compounds. He showed that ammonia was a compound of hydrogen and nitrogen, and in 1785 he demonstrated the effectiveness of using chlorine for bleaching. Obverse of a commemorative medal

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Claude Louis Berthollet, a renowned French chemist whose contributions revolutionized the field of chemistry. Born in 1748 and passing away in 1822, Berthollet played a crucial role in assisting Antoine Lavoisier's groundbreaking research on gunpowder and developing the fundamental nomenclature used to name chemical compounds today. Berthollet's scientific prowess extended beyond theoretical work as he conducted experiments that yielded significant discoveries. In 1785, he demonstrated the remarkable bleaching properties of chlorine, forever changing textile industries' approach to whitening fabrics. Additionally, his investigations led him to determine that ammonia was composed of hydrogen and nitrogen—a breakthrough that deepened our understanding of chemical composition. The portrait captured in this print portrays Berthollet as an intellectual force with an air of determination. His gaze reflects his unwavering commitment to advancing scientific knowledge during the late 18th and early 19th centuries—a time marked by immense progress across various disciplines. As we admire this commemorative medal featuring Berthollet's likeness, we are reminded of his invaluable contributions to chemistry and how they continue to shape our modern world. This photograph serves as a testament not only to his brilliance but also to the enduring legacy left behind by trailblazing scientists like him.
