Pequena biografia
Antoine-Laurent de Lavoisier was the founder of the modern science of chemistry. As a member of the ancien regime, he was killed during the Reign of Terror of the French Revolution. The lovely 1788 painting "Portrait of Monsieur Lavoisier and His Wife" (Marie-Anne Pierrette Paulze, also a pioneering chemist) by David is now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.

There are some good publications in it, which must be translated into the ordinary chemical language before they will be useful ...

(TJ to Dr. James Currie, 20 December 1788)
