1670 1724 Jacob Gole Mathematician French Philosopher Mentioned Rene Descartes
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed figure of René Descartes, a renowned French philosopher and mathematician. The portrait, created by Jacob Gole in Amsterdam between 1670 and 1724, beautifully captures the essence of Descartes' intellectual prowess and contemplative nature. In this engraving on paper measuring 255 mm in height and 180 mm in width, Descartes appears dignified yet approachable. His piercing gaze reflects his deep thoughts and analytical mind that revolutionized Western philosophy with his famous statement "Cogito ergo sum" (I think, therefore I am). Jacob Gole's masterful technique is evident in every delicate line etched onto the surface. The attention to detail brings out the texture of Descartes' clothing while emphasizing the wisdom etched upon his face. As one gazes at this remarkable piece from Liszt Collection, it is impossible not to be captivated by the profound impact that Descartes had on our understanding of knowledge, existence, and reality itself. This portrait serves as a timeless reminder of his contributions to human thought and invites us to delve into philosophical inquiry ourselves
