Framed Print of Diogenes of Sinope, Greek philosopher
Diogenes (412 BCE - 323 BCE), Greek philosopher. Diogenes was born at Sinope in modern-day Turkey. Educated as a banker, he was exiled for defacing currency and moved to Athens. He became the only ever pupil of Antisthenes and readily adopted the Cynic philosophy of attaining virtue. However, Diogenes took a practical as well as theoretical approach, living an abject life sleeping in a tub in the market. His life was a constant battle against corruption - he famously carried a lamp during daylight so he could search for an honest man. This engraving first appeared in The History of Philosophy by Thomas Stanley, published in London in 1656. Science Photo Library features Science and Medical images including photos and illustrations. © Todd-White Art Photography
