Légende
Niccolo Tartaglia, Italian mathematician and mechanician, 1550s. Among the finest achievements of Tartaglia is his 1556 publication Trattato Generale, considered the best mathematical compilation of its time. It covered arithmetic, mensuration, geometry and algebra, and was a valuable synthesis of the practical and commercial mathematics of his century. Tartaglia published the first translation of Euclid into Italian and the first Latin edition of Archimedes. Plate taken from Momenta Pulveris Pyrll.
