La noua scientia de Niccolo Tartaglia
La noua scientia de Niccolo Tartaglia. 16th Century woodcut illustration of various figures, symbolising various disciplines (e.g. arithmetics, geometry) from La noua scientia by the Italian mathematician Niccolo Tartaglia (1550). This publication, regarded as Tartaglias greatest work, showed how the path of a projectile is curved and that a projectile travels the furthest distance when fired at an angle of 45 degrees to the ground

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a 16th-century woodcut illustration from "La noua scientia de Niccolo Tartaglia" the groundbreaking work by Italian mathematician Niccolo Tartaglia. The intricate artwork depicts various figures symbolizing different disciplines such as arithmetic and geometry, offering a glimpse into the intellectual world of that era. Tartaglia's publication, considered his magnum opus, revolutionized scientific understanding by revealing the curved path of projectiles. It also highlighted that firing a projectile at an angle of 45 degrees to the ground allows it to travel the furthest distance. This profound insight forever changed our comprehension of ballistics. The image portrays an adult male scientist, representing Tartaglia himself or perhaps one of his contemporaries who contributed to this remarkable field. With its monochrome aesthetic and attention to detail, this historic woodcut serves as both art and educational material. Todd-White Art Photography has masterfully captured this significant piece of European history in stunning detail. Through their lens, we are transported back in time to witness the origins of mathematics and physics during the Renaissance period. This photograph is not only visually striking but also serves as a reminder of humanity's continuous pursuit for knowledge throughout centuries past.
