Deprez-d'Arsonval galvanometer. Historical illustration of the moving coil galvanometer invented in 1882 by French engineer Marcel Deprez (1843-1918) and French physicist Jacques-Arsene d'Arsonval (1851-1940). A galvanometer measures an electrical current by the magnetic deflection it produces. Artwork from 'Electricite' (1911) by Max de Nansouty, part of the 'Les merveilles de la science' series of 1867-1891 by Louis Figuier.
