Newton Ceramic Tree Decoration

Isaac Netwon (1642-1727). The main guy. The big cheese. The N-dog (or whatever it is you kids say nowadays). Born on Christmas day in the year Galileo died. Discoveries include: calculus (albeit also discovered independently by Leibniz and, arguably, Fermat. And Pascal. And Barrow. And Wallis.) gravitation (the apple story is a myth) and optics (which he called "opticks". Isn't that precious?). Spent his autumn years attacking Leibniz, exploring alchemy, sticking forks in his eye sockets, and shrieking at housemaids. Oh, he also had people killed. You did not cross Isaac.
