Hardly anyone has championed the role of beauty as a catalyst for cosmic enchantment more powerfully than the French artist and astronomer Étienne Léopold Trouvelot (1827-1895).
Trouvelot published more than fifty scientific papers in his lifetime, but remains best known for his exquisite astronomical illustrations, like the above drawing of Jupiter.
