Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen, German physicist by Anonymous. Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen, German physicist, (c1924). On 8 November 1895, Roentgen (or Röntgen, 1845-1923) discovered what came to be known as 'X-rays'. He noticed that when a current was passed though a Crookes tube covered with a piece of black card, a nearby piece of paper painted with barium cyanide fluoresced. Later, he found that these X-rays passed through flesh, enabling the bones to be clearly seen. In 1901, he was the first recipient of the Nobel Prize for Physics. Produced on 280gsm fine art paper designed for museum-quality reproductions. The paper has a gently textured matt surface making it especially well suited for giclée reproductions of art prints and paintings.
