Glass Frame : Einstein and Eddington, 1930
Mounted Prints from Science Photo Library
Einstein and Eddington, 1930
Einstein and Eddington. German-born physicist Albert Einstein (1879-1955), at left, was famous for his theories of relativity. British astrophysicist Sir Arthur Eddington (1882-1944), at right, pioneered the study of internal stellar structure. In 1919 Eddington led an expedition to observe stars near the sun during a solar eclipse. The results were hailed as confirmation of Einsteins 1915 theory of General Relativity, which predicted that light passing close to a large mass (like the Sun) bends twice as far as predicted by Newtons theory of gravity. Photographed at the University of Cambridge Observatory, UK, in 1930

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic meeting between two brilliant minds of the 20th century: Albert Einstein and Sir Arthur Eddington. In this image taken at the University of Cambridge Observatory in 1930, German-born physicist Albert Einstein is seen on the left, while British astrophysicist Sir Arthur Eddington stands on the right. Einstein, renowned for his groundbreaking theories of relativity, and Eddington, a pioneer in studying internal stellar structure, shared a profound connection through their work. Their collaboration reached its pinnacle during an expedition led by Eddington in 1919 to observe stars near the sun during a solar eclipse. The results obtained from this experiment were hailed as confirmation of Einstein's theory of General Relativity. In this photograph, we witness these intellectual giants engaged in conversation - perhaps discussing their revolutionary ideas or reflecting upon their remarkable achievements. Both men exude an air of wisdom and contemplation as they sit together on a bench outdoors. The significance of this encounter cannot be overstated; it represents not only scientific triumph but also serves as a testament to human curiosity and our relentless pursuit of knowledge. This image immortalizes two Nobel laureates who forever changed our understanding of space-time, gravity, and the universe itself. As we gaze upon this extraordinary portrait captured by Science Photo Library for the Royal Astronomical Society, we are reminded that true genius knows no boundaries or borders – it transcends time and place.
