EDITORS COMMENTS
In this portrait, we are transported back to the early 17th century as we witness an allegory of mathematics come to life. Created by the talented artist Bernardo Strozzi, this masterpiece is a testament to the baroque era's fascination with symbolism and intellectual pursuits. The central figure in the painting is an elderly woman, her wise eyes gazing directly at the camera. She holds a mathematical instrument, a protractor, in her hand, emphasizing her deep involvement in the world of numbers and measurements. Surrounding her are various individuals - men and women alike - engrossed in their own calculations and discussions. Strozzi's meticulous brushstrokes bring out every detail on their faces, capturing both concentration and curiosity. The warm tones of oil on canvas add depth to each character portrayed here. This artwork not only celebrates mathematics but also highlights its universal appeal across genders and ages. It reminds us that knowledge knows no boundaries or limitations; it transcends time itself. Now residing within the Regional Art Museum in Kaluga, this fine art piece continues to inspire viewers with its intricate composition and profound message. As we gaze upon it today, we can't help but marvel at how centuries-old concepts still hold relevance in our modern lives.
