Hipatia of Alexandria (born circa 350370, died 415 AD) was a Hellenistic Neoplatonist philosopher, astronomer, and mathematician, who lived in Alexandria, Egypt, in the early days of the Eastern Roman Empire.
She was a teacher of those disciplines and the first female mathematician whose life is reasonably well recorded. In her own lifetime, she achieved great renown as teacher and counselor. At the end of her days, she gave advice to Orestes, the Roman prefect of Alexandria who had an open conflict with Cyril, the bishop of the city. In 415 AD, a rumor about her preventing the reconciliation of both men led to her murder at the hands of a Christian lynching mob.
News of her gruesome death spread through the Empire, shocking the political scene and influencing the future perception of her figure that even reached the XX century, when she became an early icon of Womens rights and feminism.
Our busts portrays Hipatia in an imagined moment of pause during a busy morning of study.
