Framed Print of Thomas Wright, British astronomer
Thomas Wright (1711-86), British astronomer. Wright was born at Byers Green in northern England. In 1730 he set up a school at which he taught mathematics and navigation. He taught himself the essentials of architecture and garden design and was employed by wealthy patrons. This supported his work in astronomy. He is best known for his suggestion that the Milky Way is actually a disc-shaped layer of stars in which we live. He also suggested that some of the faint nebulae that could be observed were other galaxies at incredible distances. This engraved portrait first appeared in the Gentlemans Magazine in 1793.
