Series · 6 posters · c. 300 BC to 1900
Mathematics
Six texts from Euclid’s Elements (c. 300 BC) to Hilbert’s 23 problems (1900), by way of Fermat’s marginal note, Euler on the bridges of Königsberg (1736), Galois’s letter of 29 May 1832 and Riemann on the number of primes (1859).
Plan the wall
The wall planner draws the series to scale in your browser: this needs JavaScript. The posters and their PDFs are listed below.
The previews show each poster as laid out for the A formats, stretched to the chosen format; the PDF of each format is laid out to fill its own page. The figure is 170 cm tall.
The posters
Each poster in its first theme; its page has the others, and a wallpaper.
