EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed Claudius Ptolemaeus, also known as Ptolemy, a remarkable figure who flourished between AD 90 and AD 168. As a Roman mathematician, astronomer, geographer, and astrologer, Ptolemy's contributions to various fields of study were truly groundbreaking. In this portrait captured from Crabbs Historical Dictionary published in 1825 by Ken Welsh, we are presented with an image that embodies wisdom and intellectual prowess. Ptolemy's piercing gaze reflects his deep understanding of the universe and his determination to unravel its mysteries. Known for his significant work in astronomy, Ptolemy developed the geocentric model of the universe which held sway for over a millennium. His masterpiece "Almagest" detailed celestial movements with unparalleled accuracy at that time. Moreover, he made substantial advancements in geography through his influential treatise "Geographia" providing valuable insights into cartography and map-making techniques. Beyond his scientific achievements, it is worth noting that Ptolemy was also recognized as a poet. This multifaceted individual left an indelible mark on history through his diverse talents and unwavering dedication to expanding human knowledge. As we admire this print capturing the essence of Claudius Ptolemaeus' brilliance and legacy, let us be inspired by his insatiable curiosity about our world and beyond.
