Anton van Leeuwenhoek. It was Anton van Leeuwenhoek (1632-1723), a Dutch draper and scientist, and one of the pioneers of microscopy who in the late 17th century became the first man to make and use a real microscope.
The compound microscope was invented in 1590, 40 years before van Leeuwenhoek was born. The simple microscope was invented 300 years earlier. Around 1670, van Leeuwenhoek invented a method for making small spherical lenses that much increased magnification of simple microscopes.
