View asset onlyMarie Curie and Daughters, 1908Portrait of Marie Curie, and her two daughters, Eve and Irene, in 1908. Marie Curie (1867-1934) was a Polish-French physicist and chemist. She was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, the only woman to date to win in two fields, and the only person to win in multiple sciences. Her achievements included a theory of radioactivity (a term that she coined), techniques for isolating radioactive isotopes, and the discovery of two elements, polonium and radium. Irène Joliot-Curie (1897-1956) was a French scientist, the elder daughter of Marie and Pierre Curie and the wife of Frédéric Joliot-Curie. Jointly with her husband, Joliot-Curie was awarded the Nobel Prize for chemistry in 1935 for their discovery of artificial radioactivity. Irene's younger sister, Ève Denise Curie Labouisse (1904-2007), was a French and American writer, journalist and pianist.IdentifierAKG7416978SourceScience SourceCredit lineakg-images / Science SourceImage date14.2.2019Time Period20TH CENTURYTopicCHEMISTRYDAUGHTERHISTORYNOBEL PRIZEPERSONSCIENTISTWOMANPersonEVE CURIEIRENE JOLIOT-CURIEMARIE CURIESize1800px × 2839px (14 MB) 15.2 cm × 24.0 cm @ 300 dpiAdd to lightbox: 'My First Lightbox'Add to cartDownload
