EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the engraving of Thales of Miletus, a renowned philosopher and Greek mathematician who lived between 625-547 BC. The image, captured by an anonymous French School artist from the 17th century, emanates a sense of wisdom and intellectual curiosity. Thales is depicted in this portrait as an elderly man immersed in his studies. Sitting amidst a serene interior setting, he is engrossed in a book while holding a compass - symbolizing his profound contributions to mathematics and astronomy. A tripod stands nearby, hinting at his scientific pursuits. The monochromatic tones add depth to the image, highlighting every intricate detail on Thales' face. His expression exudes introspection and contemplation, reflecting the deep thoughts that occupied his mind during his lifetime. Displayed against the backdrop of Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France - home to countless works of knowledge throughout history - this photograph pays homage to Thales' enduring legacy. It serves as a reminder of how ancient thinkers like him paved the way for modern science and philosophy. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the brilliance of Thales de Miletus – an extraordinary individual whose ideas continue to shape our understanding of the world today.
