EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait of John Milton, the renowned English poet and author, was created by the skilled hand of engraver Milton Vertue in 1674. Milton, born in 1608, is best known for his epic poem "Paradise Lost," which ranks among the greatest works in the English literary canon. The image captures Milton in his later years, with a thoughtful and introspective expression that seems to reflect the depth of his profound intellect. The oval portrait is adorned with an elegant cartouche, which bears Milton's name, the year of his birth, and the Greek inscription "Θεοτοκος," meaning "God-bearer." This title was given to the Virgin Mary in Greek, and it is believed that Milton adopted it as a humble self-reference, acknowledging his belief in the divine inspiration of his writing. Milton's alphabet, which is visible at the bottom of the print, is a testament to his mastery of the English language and his dedication to the written word. The intricate details of the engraving, from the folds of Milton's cloak to the delicate lines of his hair, demonstrate Vertue's exceptional artistic skill. This historic portrait offers a glimpse into the life of one of England's most celebrated literary figures, and serves as a reminder of the power of the written word to inspire and captivate generations. The image is a valuable addition to any collection of historical prints or literary memorabilia, and is a testament to the enduring legacy of John Milton and the art of the engraver Milton Vertue.
