BIOGRAPHY
Albert Einstein (born March 14, 1879 – died April 18, 1955) was a brilliant scientist born in Germany. He is famous for his amazing ideas about how the universe works, especially his theory of relativity. As a teenager, he moved to Switzerland. He later worked in a patent office, which gave him time to think about physics. In 1905, a year often called his "miracle year," he published four papers. These papers completely changed science.
When Adolf Hitler came to power in Germany in 1933, Einstein was visiting the United States. Since he was Jewish, he knew it was not safe to go back home. He stayed in the U.S. and became an American citizen in 1940. On April 17, 1955, Einstein had a burst blood vessel. He was taken to hospital, but he refused surgery. He died the next morning at age 76. His brain was removed after his death for scientific study. Scientists hoped it might show the secret of his genius.

KEY MESSAGE

In his time, he was considered an extravagant who marked his own stylistic path without too much talent, largely due to what was formerly seen as a flaw and is now discovered as a virtue: his unique way of using colors, painting stylized figures and elongated forms.
