EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving is a timeless portrait of James Bradley, an esteemed English astronomer who lived from 1693 to 1762. The print is taken from the renowned book "Gallery of Portraits" published in London in 1833, and expertly captured by photographer Ken Welsh. In this vertical illustration, Bradley's dignified presence shines through as he gazes into the distance with an air of intellectual curiosity. His piercing eyes reflect his deep passion for astronomy, a field in which he made significant contributions during his lifetime. Bradley's remarkable achievements include discovering the phenomenon known as stellar aberration, which revolutionized our understanding of celestial motion. Through meticulous observations and calculations, he was able to measure the speed at which light travels - a groundbreaking revelation that paved the way for future scientific advancements. The fine details etched into this print showcase Welsh's exceptional skill as a photographer. Every line and contour on Bradley's face tells a story of dedication and perseverance in pursuit of knowledge about our vast universe. As we admire this exquisite portrait today, we are reminded not only of James Bradley's immense impact on astronomy but also of the enduring power of human curiosity and exploration.
