More goods were available and usually at lower prices but at what cost to the worker. Factory conditions deteriorated making them unsafe and unhealthy with low pay and long hours. Government usually favored the factory owners, therefore reform and protective legislation was a long time in coming. Freed of the bonds of patronage and crowded by the invention of the camera, the artist had to redefine his role in a rapidly changing society. Stepping outside the establishment gave him the freedom to comment, protest or simply portray his impressions. Art was dynamic, experimental and often times rebellious. The Romantic artists perused beauty in nature and the splendors of past ages. Realists attempted the truthful portrayal of the real world, objective and unprejudiced. Impressionists were more interested in perception while Post-Impressionist artists gave personal significance to their subject matter.

These scientists and inventors are representatives of the past and present. Read the introduction to find out more about them and the mission should you choose to accept it! This website will not self destruct in 5 seconds! Introduction Task Evaluation Conclusion ... Teacher Page Introduction Scientists and inventors are as much a part of the accomplishments of history, if not more, as politicians, famous actors and actresses, war heroes, or other rich and famous people. All students of science or invention, and that includes everyone that has ever existed, stand on the accomplishments of previous investigators of natural phenomena of the world. This was probably best said in a quote by Sir Isaac Newton. "If I can see farther, it is because I stand on the shoulder of giants." It is with this in mind, that as scientists or inventors, whether professional or amateur, that we should endeavor to become familiar with the scientists and inventors of the past and their work. Many begin this pursuit naturally through human nature's greatest attribute that being curiosity and interest in the world around us. Others go beyond these innate characteristics, and pursue them in professional ventures as part of the scientific method. The interest in science and invention can make us more rounded if we take the time to investigate the work of scientists and inventors of the past and present.
