Sir Isaac Newton, c1700, (early-mid 19th century). Portrait of English mathematician and physicist Isaac Newton (1642-1727). Newtons discoveries were prolific and exerted a huge influence on science and thought. His theories of gravity and his three laws of motion were outlined in his greatest work, " Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica", (1687) and he is credited with discovering differential calculus. Knighted by Queen Anne in 1705, Newton is buried in Westminster Abbey, London. From the original of Kneller, in the collection of The Right Honourable The Earl of Egremont.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned English mathematician and physicist, Sir Isaac Newton. Created by William Thomas Fry in the early to mid-19th century, this portrait captures the essence of a man whose discoveries revolutionized science and thought. Newton's contributions were vast and far-reaching, with his theories on gravity and three laws of motion outlined in his groundbreaking work, "Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica" (1687). Additionally, he is credited with the discovery of differential calculus, solidifying his position as one of history's greatest minds. Knighted by Queen Anne in 1705 for his remarkable achievements, Newton's legacy lives on even today. He rests eternally at Westminster Abbey in London, a testament to his profound impact on society. The original painting by Godfrey Kneller serves as the basis for this engraving. It is currently housed within the esteemed collection of The Right Honourable The Earl of Egremont. In this monochromatic portrayal, Newton appears dignified with curly hair cascading down past his shoulders. His piercing gaze reflects both intelligence and determination - qualities that propelled him to become a pioneer in mathematics and physics. This print offers viewers an opportunity to glimpse into the life and accomplishments of one of Britain's most celebrated figures. As we admire Sir Isaac Newton through this lens from centuries past, we are reminded of how profoundly he shaped our understanding of science while leaving an indelible mark on human progress.
