1749 1832 Goethe Johann Scientist Wolfgang


EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the young and vibrant face of Johann Christian Friedrich Hölderlin's dear friend and literary idol, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. The photograph, taken in 1749, showcases the German writer and scientist in his early years before he gained international acclaim for his literary works and scientific discoveries. Goethe, born on August 28, 1749, in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, was a polymath whose contributions to literature, science, and art continue to influence the world to this day. At the time this photograph was taken, Goethe was just beginning his journey towards greatness. He had already shown an exceptional aptitude for learning, mastering multiple languages and developing a deep understanding of classical literature. However, it was his friendship with Hölderlin that would prove to be a turning point in his life. The two young men met in 1772, and their bond would last for over 50 years. Goethe would go on to write some of the most influential works in German literature, including "Faust," "The Sorrows of Young Werther," and "Elective Affinities." In addition to his literary pursuits, Goethe also made significant contributions to the scientific community. He was a pioneer in the fields of color theory, botany, and anatomy, and his work laid the groundwork for modern scientific research. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the young man who would grow up to become one of the most influential figures in German history. The image, from the esteemed Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a rare glimpse into the past, allowing us to connect with Goethe on a personal level and appreciate the depth and complexity of his character. This photograph is not only a historical artifact but also a testament to the power of friendship and the limitless potential of the human spirit.
