Justus Liebig lehrt im chemischen Hörsal zu München: Zeichnung/Illustration/Chromolithographie – – Justus Liebig teaches in the hemic auditorium in Munich. From the life of Liebig. (5.) Text on the back: ‘In Munich it was to be further revealed to what high things Liebig was called. He, who had never stood behind a plow, never tilled a field, became the great reformer of agriculture. It was reserved for the youngest of all sciences, chemistry, to bring about a thorough revolution in the oldest of all human trades, agriculture. It was Liebig who taught the scientific principles of plant life, who for the first time revealed the true nature of fertilizer. Liebig’s research in the field of agricultural chemistry marked a new period in the history of agriculture. The German farmers, to whom he gave the means of preserving unchanged the fertility of the soil, showed their gratitude by a rich gift of honor, which Liebig designated for a foundation for the promotion of arable science. On his monument in Munich, a third word is emblazoned next to “chemistry”” and “”agriculture. It reads “”physiology””: this is the study of life – of the laws of those phenomena that are peculiar to organisms. Years of research on the metabolism in the body
