Joseph Henry, American physicist

Joseph Henry (1797-1878), American physicist. Henry made numerous discoveries in the field of electromagnetism. In 1829 he made the most powerful electromagnet then known. A year later he discovered electromagnetic induction while following up his earlier work. He made this discovery independently of Faraday, but Faraday published his results first. The unit of inductance was called the henry in his honour. In 1832 he published his paper on self-inductance. He also developed the electrical relay, which solved the problem of high resistance in long wires. This made long-range communication feasible

17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame

FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Joseph Henry, the brilliant American physicist who revolutionized the field of electromagnetism. With a determined gaze and an air of intellect, Henry's portrait captures his immense contributions to science. In 1829, he created the most powerful electromagnet known at that time, demonstrating his exceptional understanding of magnetic fields. A year later, while building upon his previous work, he independently discovered electromagnetic induction - a groundbreaking achievement. However, it was Michael Faraday who published his results first. Henry's impact on the scientific community extended beyond these discoveries. In 1832, he shared his research on self-inductance through a notable paper. Additionally, Henry developed the electrical relay which resolved issues related to high resistance in long wires. This breakthrough made long-range communication feasible and paved the way for modern telecommunication systems. His remarkable contributions were recognized by naming the unit of inductance after him - "the henry". This honor solidified Joseph Henry's legacy as one of history's foremost physicists. Through this mesmerizing print from Science Photo Library, we are transported back in time to witness Joseph Henry's brilliance firsthand. It serves as a reminder of how one individual can shape our understanding of the world through their relentless pursuit of knowledge and innovation
