EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a beautiful moment in the life of Marie and Pierre Curie, two extraordinary pioneers in the field of science. The image shows the couple with their daughter Irene, standing together in the serene garden of their house on Boulevard Kellermann in Paris. It is autumn, as evidenced by the fallen leaves scattered around them. Marie Curie, a remarkable female scientist from Poland, along with her husband Pierre Curie, made groundbreaking discoveries that revolutionized our understanding of radioactivity. Their most famous achievement was the discovery of radium, an element that would have a profound impact on medical research for years to come. In this portrait-like photograph taken during the 19th century, we see Marie and Pierre surrounded by nature and buildings—a juxtaposition symbolizing their scientific achievements bridging both worlds. They exude an air of dedication and determination as they stand side by side with their young daughter Irene. The image serves as a powerful reminder of how these brilliant minds defied societal norms to pursue their passion for science. It also highlights the importance of family support in achieving great feats. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece captured by Irene Curie herself or an unknown creator from Oxford Science Archive, we are transported back to a time when curiosity fueled groundbreaking discoveries - forever etching Marie and Pierre Curie's names into history books worldwide.
