EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned Greek philosopher and mathematician, Pythagoras, who lived between 580-500 B. C. Known for his groundbreaking discoveries in various fields, Pythagoras made a significant contribution to music theory. The woodcut image is taken from Franchinus Gaffurius' "Theorica Musicae" published in Milan, Italy in 1492. Pythagoras's revolutionary insight into the relationship between musical intervals and arithmetical ratios of string lengths under equal tension is depicted here. This discovery forever changed our understanding of musicology and laid the foundation for further exploration in this field. In this intriguing portrayal, Pythagoras can be seen playing an instrument while deeply engrossed in his research. His long beard symbolizes wisdom and intelligence that characterized ancient scholars during the Iron Age. Dressed as an Italian musician of the time, he represents a fusion of Hellenic Republic culture with contemporary Italian influences. This woodcut not only captures Pythagoras's immense intellectual prowess but also serves as a reminder of how knowledge transcends time and place. It pays homage to one of history's most influential figures whose theories continue to shape our understanding of mathematics, philosophy, and music today.
