Vintage portrait photo circa 1920s of English chemist Frederick Soddy (1877 - 1956) - winner of the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1921. Soddy worked with Ernest Rutherford to develop a theory of the disintegration of radioactive elements and was among the first to conclude that elements might exist in two or more forms (isotopes) with different atomic weights but which are indistinguishable chemically. His Nobel Prize was awarded "for his contributions to our knowledge of the chemistry of radioactive substances, and his investigations into the origin and nature of isotopes".

He deduced that uranium was emitting an invisible but penetrating radiation. In 1903 he shared the Nobel prize for physics with Pierre and Marie Curie. Photograph by Nadar, Paris.

Colour engraving print circa 1859 of Benjamin Franklin's infamous appearance before the Lords in Council (Privy Council) at Whitehall Chapel, London, in 1774. Engraving by Robert Whitechurch (1814 - c1880), based on a painting by Christian Schussele (1824 - 1879). Franklin (1706 - 1790) was publicly ridiculed and chastised during the appearance after he obtained and leaked letters written by Thomas Hutchinson, the English-appointed governor of Massachusetts. The letters had caused outrage in the Colonies because they called for a crackdown on the rights of Bostonians. Franklin's treatment by the Council accelerated the chain of events that ultimately resulted in the independence of the Colonies. Franklin was one of the Founding Fathers of the United States of America and was one of the "Committee of Five" appointed by the Second Continental Congress to draft the Declaration of Independence. He is also remembered as a noted polymath who excelled at many things. He was an author, theorist, diplomat, statesman, printer, inventor and scientist and is particularly remembered for his discoveries and theories regarding electricity and his invention of the lightning rod.
