For a short thread of my ongoing series of portraits of women in science through history. If you look for them, they’re there. I’m up to 67 now! Here’s to the day when a scientist’s sex is no longer remarkable in any field!

this is my collection of linocut prints of (top row): horticulturalist/alchemist Sophie Brahe, geochemist Katsuko Saruhashi and geologist FlorenceBascom Middle: Astronomer Margaret Burbidge, crystallographer Dorothy Hodgkin and physicist Maria Goeppert-Mayer Bottom row: Chemist/translator Claudine Picardet, alchemist Geng Xiansheng, alchemist/chemist Marie Meurdrac and Paleontologist Zofia Keilan-Jaworowska. Each is shown with a representation of their scientific work.
A collection of 6 of my linocut portraits of women scientists illustrated with tools of their trade or research results. Top row: Margaret Fountaine, Marie-Anne Paulze Lavoisier, Annie Jump Cannon. Second row: Mary the Jewess, Maude Jane Delap, Hildegard von Bingen
