Einstein Bust Sculpture - Premium Desktop Decor for Office, Study & Home - Perfect Gift for Science & History Lovers

Albert Einstein poses for a bust by Arthur Lowenthal in his studio in Berlin, April 1930. Back then, Times photographers often captured artists with both their works of art and the people depicted in those works.

The Times called Einstein "one of the great thinkers of the ages" in a front-page article when the scientist died at age 76 on April 18, 1955. President Dwight D. Eisenhower said, "No other man contributed so much to the vast expansion of twentieth century knowledge."

The Times wrote, "In the entire course of man's recorded civilization, according to George Bernard Shaw, only eight men - Pythagoras, Aristotle, Ptolemy, Copernicus, Galileo, Kepler, Newton and Einstein - succeeded in synthesizing the sum total of the knowledge of their day and age into a new vision of the universe, vaster than the one encompassed in the visions of their predecessors."
