Anton van Leeuwenhoek (1632-1723), Dutch microscopist, c1810. Artist: John Chapman
Anton van Leewenhoek (1632-1723) Dutch microscopist, c1810. It was probably as a result of his use of lenses in examining cloth as a drapers apprentice that led to Leeuwenhoeks interest in lens making. Using microscopes he assembled himself, he discovered the existence of protozoa (1674), bacteria in tooth tartar (1676), blood corpuscles (1674) and blood capillaries (1683), among many other observations. In 1680 he was made a Fellow of the Royal Society in recognition of his work
