This image is a complex and visually rich piece that combines geometric shapes with text, mathematics, and philosophical concepts related to Pythagorean beliefs. 1. **Main Visual Element:** - The central part of the image features a large triangle divided into concentric triangular layers, each progressively smaller and nested within one another. - Within the largest triangle, there are annotations of the number of "worlds" (10 worlds, 40 worlds, 80 worlds, 110 worlds, etc.). - Each concentric triangle is aligned and connected by dots, possibly signifying points or worlds. 2. **Mathematical Annotations:** - At the top, the image explains that "Many (kosmoi) worlds are arranged in the form of a triangle. Each side of the triangle has 20 worlds and the remaining three are placed at the corners." - It appears as follows: "20 + 20 + 20 + 3 = 63 worlds. 9 : 63 = 7 x 9." - Additional breakdowns of these numbers and multiplications are written within and around the concentric triangles. 3. **Textual Material:** - The text elaborates on the significance and philosophical meaning behind the numbers involved: - "Justice, required or equity, is found in number 9, the first square of an odd number, namely 3, multiplied by itself." - "Opportunity is number 7, because in nature the time of full period go in sevens. Moreover, the sun is situated in the region of the number 7. It occupies the seventh place among the ten bodies which move around the central hearth." 4. **Pythagorean Belief:** - The bottom portion contains the philosophical conclusion: "Pythagorean belief claim that the number 10 contained in itself the whole nature of number." 5. **Miscellaneous:** - The entire image has a blueprint or diagrammatic feel due to the use of hand-drawn lines, annotations, and geometrical accuracy. - Various colors like orange, black, and blue are used to differentiate sections and calculations. 6. **Signature:** - The image is signed "Alfred Jensen 15/1/60," indicating it was created by Alfred Jensen on January 15, 1960. Overall, the image combines elements of geometry, mathematics, and Pythagorean philosophy to visualize the concept of worlds arranged in a triangular form and the intrinsic significance of the number 10.

This image features a hand-drawn illustration overlaid with handwritten text. At first glance, the focal point is a large triangle in the center with layers of smaller triangles inside, creating a pattern similar to a fractal. Each layer has a set of numbered points, starting from the outer large triangle with "20 worlds" on each side and moving inwards with decreasing numbers like "10 worlds," and so on, until it reaches the smallest triangle labeled with "1 world." The outer triangle is divided into three sections by lines extended from the corners, meeting at the center. This central point is emphasized with a small pink triangle surrounded by dense annotations. Black dots are placed at points along the lines, presumably representing the "worlds" mentioned in the text. Surrounding the central graphic, there is handwritten text in various colors, primarily red, blue, and black. The red text at the top reads, "Said Petron among the earliest Pythagoreans (422 B.C.): 'Many (kosmoi) worlds arranged in the form of a triangle. Each side of the triangle has 20 worlds and the remaining three are placed at the corners. 20 + 20 + 20 + 3 = 63 worlds. 9:63 = 7 x 9.'" Below that, different snippets of blue text appear to explain the concepts illustrated by the triangle, such as "justice requires or equals 4," "opportunity is number 7," and references to Pythagorean beliefs. These notes seem to convey different philosophical or abstract interpretations of numbers and their significance, which may be tied to Pythagorean numerology. At the bottom, there's a black handwritten note that states, "Pythagorean belief claimed that the number 10 contained in itself the whole nature of numbers." It appears overall that the image is an artistic representation of ancient Pythagorean cosmology and numerology, illustrating and interpreting the symbolic significance of numbers.

This image shows a mathematical and philosophical diagram attributed to Petron, one of the earliest Pythagoreans (circa 522 BCE). The diagram illustrates a concept about "worlds" arranged in a triangular pattern, with the following key elements: 1. A large blue circle containing a series of concentric triangles 2. Red and black triangular patterns decreasing in size toward the center 3. Mathematical notations showing that each side contains 20 worlds plus 3 at the corners, totaling 63 worlds (20+20+20+3 = 63) 4. The equation 9:63 = 7×9 is noted at the top The bottom of the image contains text discussing Pythagorean beliefs about the number 10 and includes notes about justice, equality, and the number 7's significance in nature. The diagram appears to be hand-drawn in multiple colors (blue, red, and black) with handwritten annotations explaining the mathematical and philosophical concepts. The image represents a fascinating intersection of ancient Greek mathematics, philosophy, and cosmology, showing how the Pythagoreans understood the relationship between numbers and the natural world.

The image shows a handwritten mathematical proof explaining the concept of the "Pythagorean belief", attributed to Petron among the earliest Pythagoreans in 432 B.C. The proof visually represents how in each side of a triangle, the number of worlds increases exponentially as you move down the levels, with the outermost level having over 200 worlds. The number of worlds at each level forms a geometric sequence with a common ratio of 3. Using the formula for the sum of a geometric sequence, it calculates that the total number of worlds contained in the triangle is 9:63 = 7 x 9. At the bottom, the image states "Pythagorean belief claims that the number 10 contained in itself the whole nature of number." It provides an early example of using visual diagrams and mathematical reasoning to explore metaphysical and philosophical concepts.
