Science posters encompass a broad range of subjects and are used widely by educators in classrooms. These works cover everything from the smallest atoms to the vast expanses of the universe. Many of the things studied through science are nearly impossible to imagine fully and that's where educational visual aids become an important resource for learning.
The majority of science posters represent natural images in some way. These images generally deal with biology, or the study of living organisms. From dinosaur depictions to educational physical art like 'Vitruvian Man' by Leonardo Da Vinci, these works help the viewer understand all of the amazing things in the world around them and within themselves. Also, microscopic natural images of things like atoms and nerves allow both students and teachers to see below the surface of an object without seeing it firsthand.
Solar system prints are also popular types of science art. These representations of the universe are useful educational visual aids, particularly since many students and young people are unable to imagine just how big the solar system is. Additionally, solar system prints are excellent for showing the order of planets, stars, and other important celestial phenomenon.
Many times, educators allow scientists to speak for themselves through science posters. Works like 'Albert Einstein-Don't Worry' or 'Darwin- Slim Print' explain the thought processes of famous and influential scientists as well as revealing an important events in the history of science through science illustrations. These works can serve as inspiration, motivation, and even role models for scientists of any age.
