Einstein and his tongue



The vast majority of people perceive Albert Einstein as a "mad scientist." This image has been created in the minds of millions of people solely because of an extraordinary appearance of the great scientist, but not his mental state. Outstanding physicist, who gave himself to science, often appeared in public in the ordinary stretched sweater, with disheveled hair, and eyes, facing inward - the mind of the scientist was constantly busy solving complex problems. Also well known are forgetfulness and impracticality of this nice intelligent man, make discoveries, not for personal gain, but for the sake of all chelovechestva.

Only once in his whole long life Albert Einstein lifted the veil of secrecy over his personality, causing even greater interest to the person. It happened on the day of the celebration of his seventy-second anniversary, March 14, 1952. Photographer Seyss asked to make Einstein's thoughtful face, image corresponding to the researcher, a scientist on his tongue, showing not only the inventor of the grave, but the usual cheerful person. And so it happened this photo, snapshot, to dispel the image of a gray-haired, slightly disheveled genius scientist. The great physicist himself acknowledged this photograph unusually successful - by the time the order has bothered him undeserved stereotypical image of the "evil genius".

Photography, which in a short time, went around the world, has been cut - there is still present family couple Eydelot. Later, Albert Einstein sent out her friends as a Christmas greeting card. A friend of Albert, a journalist H.Smitu, got a unique picture - it was the signature made by hand the genius of physics, "playful grimace to all mankind." There were nine original printed images, and one of them in 2009 was sold to 74,000 dollars.
