EDITORS COMMENTS
This 13th century oil on canvas painting depicts Albertus, also known as Albert the Great or Albertus Magnus (1193-1280), a prominent figure in European history. Born in Germany, Albertus was a Dominican friar, philosopher, scientist, and theologian. He is considered a key figure in the development of the Western intellectual tradition, making significant contributions to various fields including physics, chemistry, biology, and theology. Albertus is shown here in profile, with a serious expression and piercing gaze. He is dressed in the robes of a Dominican friar, complete with the distinctive tonsure hairstyle. His hair is neatly combed back, revealing a balding head and a prominent, hooked nose. The painting's rich colors and intricate details bring Albertus to life, capturing the essence of a man deeply engaged in the pursuit of knowledge and wisdom. Despite his many accomplishments, Albertus is perhaps best known for his role as the teacher of Thomas Aquinas. Together, they helped to establish the Dominican Order as a major intellectual force in Europe. Albertus was also a renowned astrologer and astronomer, and is often referred to as the "Great Albert" or "Albertus Magnus." This painting is a testament to the enduring legacy of Albertus Magnus, whose influence can still be felt in the fields of science, philosophy, and religion today. It is currently housed in the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Sweden, where it continues to captivate visitors with its intricate details and historical significance.
