Brazilian scientist Morais recreated the appearance of Nicolaus Copernicus

Brazilian scientist and 3D designer Cicero Morais created a portrait of Nicolaus Copernicus using a skull believed to be Copernicus’s and a database of modern people to gain insight into the missing fragments.

The face turned out to be similar to the 1580 portrait of Copernicus, painted after the astronomer’s death in 1543.

Morais showed the appearance of Copernicus from two angles.
