Original engraving of Professor Michael Faraday Engraving is over 125years old.

Faraday was an English scientist who contributed to the study of electromagnetism and electrochemistry. His main discoveries include the principles underlying electromagnetic induction, diamagnetism and electrolysis. Although Faraday received little formal education, as a self-made man, he was one of the most influential scientists in history.[1] It was by his research on the magnetic field around a conductor carrying a direct current that Faraday established the concept of the electromagnetic field in physics. Faraday also established that magnetism could affect rays of light and that there was an underlying relationship between the two phenomena.[2][3] He similarly discovered the principles of electromagnetic induction, diamagnetism, and the laws of electrolysis. His inventions of electromagnetic rotary devices formed the foundation of electric motor technology, and it was largely due to his efforts that electricity became practical for use in technology.

Size:12 by 9 1/2 inches actual picture without writing 6 1/2 by 4 3/4 inches

Condition: no foxing really good shape see photos Would look nice in an acid free mat and black frame. Really nice engraving.

If you google this engraving you will see many collections have this engraving. The library of Congress sells photos of this engraving.

Made for Electic Magazine.

Great piece of history. We got these while we were living in Philadelphia. Bought at an antique store and always thought we would open a store to sell prints but now retired so just selling. Have over 200 engravings. Have sat in a box for over 30 years.

Lots of copies of this engraving but this is an original.

Note the size of this engraving compared to others. This is much bigger.
