The Mathematicians by AngelusMortis

The Mathematicians

Description

This picture took me forever to finish. Unfortunately, because there are so many of them, I wouldn't be able to include each and every single mathematician that deserves recognition. These ones are mostly ones I'm most familiar with from my math history class.

This reminds me of the old saying about standing on the shoulders of giants.

Good use of shades, highlights, colour and world history to go with it. What an inovative idea^_^ ...too bad it's math...

Nimrodel on September 2, 2008, 7:11:16 AM

I absolutely love this drawing.
It´s different to see such a good artist to portrait mathematicians or scientists ... I love Science (of all kinds) so I enjoy to see all these geniuses together =D

aeris7dragon on August 25, 2008, 11:33:47 AM

Is one of them newton? i can't tell....~nyoro~

AngelusMortis on August 26, 2008, 6:15:37 AM

Yes, Newton is in this picture. He's in the top left corner holding the book. See the link in my comment for more details.

Miliath on August 25, 2008, 9:00:28 PM

wow, what an awesome idea ^^ it looks great, the arrangement and style and everything =) <3

hybridrainbow on August 25, 2008, 7:21:31 AM

As always, beautiful. The blue glow between them fits wonderfully and their faces are realistic. The reflective light is also fantastic.

I wish I could give a better comment, but it'd just go into more "amazing"s and "fantastic"s.

:)
