Robert Koch, German bacteriologist
Robert Koch (1843-1910), German bacteriologist. Along with Louis Pasteur, Koch is considered the founder of modern medical bacteriology. His techniques for cultivating bacteria, both in liquid and solid media, and his use of stains, enabled him to study the life cycles of bacteria in laboratory conditions. As a result he was able to isolate the specific bacteria responsible for certain diseases. The high point of his career was the identification in 1882 of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the bacterium responsible for tuberculosis (TB). Koch was awarded the Nobel Prize for medicine and physiology in 1905

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 the brilliant mind of Robert Koch, a renowned German bacteriologist. Known as one of the founders of modern medical bacteriology alongside Louis Pasteur, Koch revolutionized the field with his groundbreaking techniques and discoveries. In this image, we see a distinguished man in his fifties or sixties, exuding an air of wisdom and expertise. His piercing gaze reflects years spent studying bacteria under laboratory conditions. With his pioneering methods for cultivating bacteria in both liquid and solid media, as well as his innovative use of stains, Koch was able to delve into the intricate life cycles of these microorganisms. The pinnacle of Koch's illustrious career came in 1882 when he successfully identified Mycobacterium tuberculosis—the culprit behind tuberculosis (TB). This monumental breakthrough paved the way for effective diagnosis and treatment strategies against this deadly disease. Recognizing his immense contributions to medicine and physiology, Koch was honored with the Nobel Prize in 1905. His legacy extends far beyond TB research; he also made significant strides in understanding anthrax and other bacterial diseases. As we admire this remarkable photograph capturing a pivotal figure from history, let us remember Robert Koch—a visionary scientist who forever changed our understanding of microbiology through tireless dedication to unraveling nature's mysteries.
