Electricity and galvanism. 19th-century diagrams of equipment used in experiments on electricity and storing and using electrical current. Galvanism (muscle contraction by electrical stimulation) is demonstrated at lower left (frog's legs). Several batteries (voltaic piles) are also shown. This page is from volume 1 of the 4th edition (1844) of 'Elements de physique experimentale et de meteorologie' by French physicist Claude Servais Mathias Pouillet (1790-1868).
