Meet Maria Agnesi

16 May 1718 - 9 January 1799

Maria Agnesi was a brilliant 18th-century mathematician, philosopher, and theologian. Her work Instituzioni analitiche discussed a curve that has since been known as the “Witch of Agnesi” in her honor. Often a substitute for the bell curve, the “Witch of Agnesi” finds its place in all aspects of life, including the fermentation and fractional distillation of Maria Agnesi’s namesake brandy.
