EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent statue of Sir Isaac Newton, located in the chapel of Trinity College, Cambridge around 1850. The image captures the essence of Newton's profound contributions to science and thought. Renowned for his groundbreaking discoveries, Newton's theories on gravity and his three laws of motion revolutionized our understanding of the physical world. His monumental work, Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica (1687), solidified his status as a scientific pioneer. The photograph also highlights Newton's significant achievements outside of physics. Knighted by Queen Anne in 1705, he was laid to rest in Westminster Abbey, London—a testament to his enduring legacy. This remarkable image is sourced from the book Old Englands Worthies (London, c1850), which pays homage to influential figures throughout English history.

The statue stands tall on its plinth within Trinity College's chapel—an awe-inspiring representation that resonates with both students and visitors alike. As we gaze upon this photo print, we are reminded not only of Newton's immense impact on mathematics and astronomy but also his unwavering dedication to education and Christian faith. It serves as a timeless tribute to one man who forever altered our perception of the universe through his insatiable curiosity and relentless pursuit of knowledge.
