EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a copy of Rene Descartes, created by the talented Boris Mestchersky in 1957. The illustration is derived from Gabriel Hanotaux's renowned work, "Histoire de la Nation Francaise, Sciences" published in 1924. This lithograph was produced by an anonymous French School artist from the 17th century and now resides in a private collection. Rene Descartes, depicted here with his distinctive moustache, was a prominent figure in history as a philosopher, mathematician, and physicist. Known as the father of modern philosophy, Descartes made significant contributions to various fields during the Enlightenment period. The portrait captures Descartes' intellectual prowess and introspective nature. His piercing gaze seems to delve into profound thoughts that shaped his groundbreaking theories on Cartesian philosophy. As one of the most influential thinkers of his time, Descartes left an indelible mark on Western philosophy. This engraving provides us with a glimpse into the life and times of this remarkable individual who lived during the 17th century. It serves as a testament to his enduring legacy and reminds us of his immense impact on scientific thought and human understanding. Bridgeman Images has preserved this exquisite piece within their Fine Art Finder collection for all admirers of art history to appreciate its beauty and historical significance
