EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigmatic figure of Johannes Kepler, a renowned German astronomer from the 17th century. The portrait, taken in 1933 by an unknown creator, showcases Kepler's distinctive features - his long beard and lace collar ruff. Kepler's significant contributions to astronomy are well-documented. In 1600, he traveled to Prague to assist Tycho Brahe, another prominent astronomer of the time. Tragically, after Brahe's death the following year, Kepler succeeded him as court astronomer to Rudolph II. The photograph is part of "Gestalten Der Weltgeschichte" a book featuring cigarette-card portrait miniatures that depict influential figures throughout history over four centuries. This particular image offers us a glimpse into Germany during the early 20th century. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and character to this portrayal of Kepler. His piercing gaze seems to reflect both curiosity and determination as he delves into the mysteries of celestial bodies. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but appreciate how science has evolved since then while acknowledging Kepler's enduring legacy in shaping our understanding of the universe.
