ALBERT
EINSTEIN - PORTRAITS OF A GENIUS
The Harry Flower Collection of medals and coins from around
the world commemorate one of the greatest intellects in history
Albert Einstein was asked to pose so many times that he said if he hadn't been a physicist, he could have made a living as a model. This is borne out by the over 100 Einstein portrait medals and coins gathered together from over two dozen countries, and extensively researched by Harry Flower in a monumental 15-year effort. We are pleased to exhibit this fabulous collection of Einstein medals and coins, augmented by new issues. Regrettably, Harry passed away just a few days after sending his material to us, and so we dedicate this exhibit to the memory of this dedicated collector.
The music is Albert Einstein playing the violin in Mozart’s sonata in b-flat.
