Through the ages, deep thought has been depicted in art and history, from Saint Jerome's intense contemplation in his Portrait, to Queen Elizabeth and King George VI's solemn reflection amidst the ruins of the Blitz, to the pensive young woman of the 1850s, and the contemplative Democritus lost in his atomic theories. The human capacity for deep thought is timeless, as seen in the focused expression of a modern-day thinker, such as Norman Tebbit at a press conference, or the introspective gaze of a young nurse. Even in nature, as a man sits in quiet reflection atop a mountain in Jasper National Park, deep thought continues to shape our understanding of the world around us.
