Framed Photos From Heritage Images
Nicolas Copernicus, Polish astronomer and mathematician
Nicolas Copernicus, Polish astronomer and mathematician. Copernicus (1473-1543) is considered to be the father of modern astronomy and founder of heliocentric cosmology. Prior to the work of Copernicus, the Earth was considered to be the stationary centre of the universe, a notion first advocated by the Egyptian astronomer Ptolemy. Copernicus pioneering work De revolutionibus orbium coelestium (The Revolutions of Celestial Spheres) (1543) describes his idea of a Sun-centred universe, in which the Earth is merely one of the planets revolving around the Sun and rotating on its axis

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed figure of Nicolas Copernicus, a Polish astronomer and mathematician. Known as the father of modern astronomy and founder of heliocentric cosmology, Copernicus revolutionized our understanding of the universe. Prior to his groundbreaking work, it was widely believed that Earth stood motionless at the center of everything. Copernicus's pioneering masterpiece, "De revolutionibus orbium coelestium" (The Revolutions of Celestial Spheres), published in 1543, presented his radical concept: a Sun-centered universe where Earth is just one among many planets revolving around it. This etching captures his intellectual prowess and determination to challenge prevailing beliefs. With this portrait, we glimpse into the mind of a brilliant scientist who dared to question centuries-old dogma. His contributions not only reshaped our perception but also paved the way for future astronomical discoveries. In this monochrome image from the 16th century, we witness Copernicus's dedication to mathematics and science—a testament to his occupation as an astronomer and mathematician. As one gazes upon this print by an unknown creator preserved by The Print Collector organization, we are reminded of Copernicus's lasting impact on our understanding of celestial bodies and their movements. Nicolas Copernicus remains an iconic figure whose legacy continues to inspire scientists worldwide.
