Justus Susterman's iconic portrait of Galileo is modified in this picture for greater impact. The original statement in Il Saggiatore, which I have taken the liberty of excerpting, is "La filosofia e' scritta in questo grandissimo libro, che continuamente ci sta aperto innanzi agli occhi (io dico l' Universo'), ma non si puo' intendere, se prima non il sapere a intender la lingua, e conoscer i caratteri ne quali e' scritto. Egli e' scritto in lingua matematica, e i caratteri son triangoli, cerchi ed altre figure geometriche, senza i quali mezzi e' impossibile intenderne umanamente parola; senza questi e' un aggirarsi vanamente per un oscuro labirinto.
Il Saggiatore is usually translated in English as The Assayer. Saggiare means to test, probe or deduce, so saggiatore is one who probes or analyzes.
C H Apperson ("Chapp") is the nom du pinceau (nom-de-camera?) of a retired St. Louis attorney.
