EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white illustration portrays Edmund Halley, a renowned English astronomer and mathematician who lived from 1656 to 1742. The print is derived from the book "Old England's Worthies" by Lord Brougham and others, which was published in London around the 1880s. In this vertical portrait, Halley's intellectual prowess shines through his piercing gaze and distinguished features. His contribution to science cannot be overstated; he is best known for accurately predicting the return of a comet that now bears his name - Halley's Comet. The historical significance of this image transports us back to an era when scientific discoveries were made with sheer determination and limited resources. It serves as a reminder of the remarkable minds that paved the way for our understanding of the universe. Ken Welsh, the talented photographer behind this print, has masterfully captured both the essence of Halley's character and the vintage charm associated with photographs from that era. This piece would make an excellent addition to any collection celebrating scientific achievements or historical figures
