The depiction of chemistry on stamps began in 1923 with the issue of a set of definitive French stamps commemorating the chemist and microbiologist Louis Pasteur. Another early chemical stamp depicted the botanist and chemist Herman Boerhaave. The depiction of chemistry on stamps contributes to chemical education and to the public understanding of science.
