The article focuses on Jeanne Villepreux-Power, a pioneering naturalist born in 1794 in France, who made contributions to the field of marine science, particularly in the study of mollusks. It mentions that she designed three types of aquariums, including the first glass aquarium used in modern aquarium keeping, which allowed her to make important observations about marine organisms, such as the species Argonauta argo.
