Dr. Pasteur is a 1925 ink by Timothy Cole, held at National Gallery of Art.
This black-and-white image shows an older man in a dark suit, carefully holding a small glass container. He’s standing in a cluttered room with shelves full of glass jars and bottles, some labeled. A table in front of him holds more glassware, including flasks and a microscope. The man looks focused, like he’s examining something important. The room feels like a lab or workshop, packed with tools and supplies. The artist used lines to create shadows and texture, giving the scene depth.
