Bronx High School of Science Mural

This Venetian glass mosaic mural in the lobby of The Bronx High School of Science, created by Frank J. Reilly, entitled Humanities Protecting Biology, Physics, Chemistry, depicts major figures from the history of science such as Marie Curie and Charles Darwin under the protective hands of a God-like figure representing knowledge, with the following quote from John Dewey.  "Every great advance in science has issued from a new audacity of imagination".  Picture by Alexander Thorpe.
