Leonhard Euler, Swiss mathematician
Leonhard Euler (1707-1783), Swiss mathematician. Euler developed the theory of differential equations and the calculus of variations, and did important work in astronomy and optics. He worked in St Petersburg, Russia, and in Berlin, Germany, publishing over 800 papers. He became blind in the last years of his life, but continued his work by calculating in his head

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed Leonhard Euler, a brilliant Swiss mathematician whose contributions to various fields of study are immeasurable. Born in 1707 and passing away in 1783, Euler's legacy lives on as he revolutionized the realms of differential equations and calculus of variations. His expertise extended beyond mathematics, delving into astronomy and optics with remarkable success. Euler's intellectual journey took him from St Petersburg, Russia to Berlin, Germany where he published an astonishing number of over 800 papers throughout his career. Despite facing adversity towards the end of his life when blindness struck him down, this indomitable scholar continued his groundbreaking work by meticulously calculating complex problems within the confines of his own mind. The vivid illustration before us portrays Euler as a distinguished European gentleman in his fifties. With its historical charm and attention to detail, this artwork captures not only the essence of a mathematical genius but also pays homage to an era steeped in scientific exploration. As we gaze upon this colored portrait that radiates history and knowledge, we are reminded that Euler's profound impact transcends time. A professor at heart and a symbol of perseverance against all odds, Leonhard Euler remains an icon within both the mathematical community and humanity as a whole.
