Peter Nicholson
Peter Nicholson was a Scottish architect, mathematician, and engineer who primarily focused on theoretical work. Largely self-taught, he gained renown for his theoretical contributions on the skew arch, despite never constructing one himself. Beyond this, he invented draughtsman's instruments, including a centrolinead and a cyclograph. He was also a prolific writer on numerous practical subjects.
