Srinivasa Ramanujan

JO-D-130423-Ramanujan01_low

He is one of the most amazing minds ever and one of my favourite characters, Srinivasa Ramanujan. Probably because he is one of these isolated autodidacts that probe the wonder of human mind. He died very young and we have only a couple photos of himself, I choose one of these for this illustration… I feel we can see many things through that eyes.

We have a lot of results from him, near 3900, but not too many words. I love one of his quotes “An equation has no meaning for me unless it expresses a thought of God”. I took this one and spread over his portrait.

You can read about Srinivasa Ramanujan in his wikipedia article.
