One
of the last acts of Tsar Alexander I before his death in 1825 was to
give Humphry Davy a silver-gilt cup — the Davy cup. It was a token of
gratitude for Davy’s invention of the miners’ safety lamp ten years
before. With appropriately explosive demonstrations, Frank James
showcases Davy’s experimental development of his lamp while reflecting
on the relationship between science and the state symbolised by the Davy
cup, a treasure from the Ri's Faraday Museum.
