EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned philosopher Thales of Miletus, who lived during the 6th century BC in ancient Greece. Hailing from Miletus, a city located in Ionia, Asia Minor (present-day Turkey), Thales was one of the most influential figures of his time. This portrait, based on a 17th-century work by Jacob de Gheyn, beautifully captures the essence of this pre-Socratic thinker. Thales is widely regarded as one of the founding fathers of Western philosophy and science. He delved into various fields such as mathematics, astronomy, and engineering while also pondering profound questions about existence and nature. His philosophical ideas laid the groundwork for future intellectual movements. The image transports us back to an era steeped in rich history and deep contemplation. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, Thales' legacy continues to inspire modern thinkers around the world. Ken Welsh's expertly crafted illustration evokes a sense of nostalgia with its vintage aesthetic. The attention to detail brings out both the wisdom and enigma behind this iconic figure's gaze. As we admire this archival piece, let us reflect upon how Thales' contributions have shaped our understanding of philosophy and influenced countless generations since his time.
