Louis de Broglie, French physicist, 1933
Louis de Broglie, French physicist, 1933. De Broglies (1892-1987) work on a new branch of quantum physics called wave mechanics won him the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1929. The de Broglie hypothesis states that every moving particle or object has an associated wave.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Louis de Broglie, a prominent French physicist in 1933. Known for his groundbreaking work on wave mechanics, de Broglie's contributions to the field of quantum physics earned him the prestigious Nobel Prize for Physics in 1929. The image is part of the Album de Photographies collection titled "Dans L Intimite de Personnages Illustres" which features intimate portraits of illustrious figures from 1850-1950. The photograph captures de Broglie's serious yet contemplative expression, reflecting his dedication and passion for scientific exploration. De Broglie's hypothesis revolutionized our understanding of particles and objects by asserting that they possess an associated wave while in motion. This concept laid the foundation for further advancements in quantum theory and mechanics. As we delve into this monochrome portrait, we are transported back to a pivotal era in scientific discovery during the early 20th century. De Broglie stands as a symbol of intellectual prowess, representing France's contribution to global scientific progress. This remarkable print serves as a reminder of the immense impact individuals like Louis de Broglie have had on shaping our understanding of the world around us through their tireless pursuit of knowledge and innovation.
