Einstein sketch

Description

Charcoal sketch of Einstein, which took about an hour and a half of drawing. He has the most distinctive face, doesn't he? This is from a photo I saw in a magazine clipping; it's not one of those which you commonly see, I think. He looks slightly dignified for Einstein.

Please note the γ in the formula. Poor Lorentz must be weeping in his grave - he is ever so neglected by popular culture. Not everything is a rest mass, people!

Wonderful sketch!

Yes, Lorentz has been "neglected by popular culture" like most great scientists. People like Einstein, Feynman, and Sagan are the exception rather than the rule.

I do like your appropriate use of the gamma factor, and I also like this relation: E^2 = (pc)^2 + (mc^2)^2, where p is the linear momentum, of course.

"Not everything is a rest mass," indeed!
