EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the frontispiece of Thomas Sprat's History of the Royal Society, published in 1667. The image transports us back to a significant moment in history, where we witness Lord Brouncker, the esteemed first president of the Royal Society, seated on the left side of King Charles II's bust. On his right stands Sir Francis Bacon, an iconic figure known for his contributions as a scientist and mathematician. The line engraving from 1667 captures not only their physical presence but also symbolizes their intellectual prowess and noble status within English society. As we gaze at this remarkable artwork, we are reminded of the profound impact these individuals had on scientific progress during that era. Lord Brouncker's position next to King Charles II signifies both his close relationship with royalty and his role in establishing this prestigious institution dedicated to advancing knowledge and understanding. Meanwhile, Sir Francis Bacon's inclusion acknowledges his groundbreaking work as an influential philosopher and scientist. Through this artful depiction, we are transported into a world where science intertwines with nobility and intellect reigns supreme. It serves as a visual testament to the rich history of the Royal Society and its enduring legacy in shaping our modern understanding of science.
