EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative portrait captures the enigmatic and eccentric figure of Laurence Sterne (1713-1768), an English novelist and clergyman, as he holds a stack of papers in his hand. The portrait, created in 1768, is attributed to the renowned artist Joshua Reynolds (1723-1792), who was known for his mastery of portraiture and his influential role in the development of the Neoclassical style. Sterne's literary output was marked by his innovative use of stream-of-consciousness narrative techniques and his exploration of the complexities of human emotion and experience. His most famous work, "Tristram Shandy," is a groundbreaking novel that defies traditional narrative structure and challenges the conventions of the time. Despite his literary achievements, Sterne's career as a clergyman was equally notable. He served as a curate in Sutton-on-Trent, Nottinghamshire, and later became the rector of Coxwold, Yorkshire. His sermons were known for their wit and humor, and he was a popular and beloved figure in his community. This portrait offers a glimpse into the mind of a man who defied categorization. With his quizzical expression and the stack of papers in his hand, Sterne appears to be deep in thought, perhaps pondering the complexities of the human condition that he so masterfully explored in his writing. The intricately detailed background, with its rich textures and deep shadows, adds to the sense of depth and complexity, making this a truly captivating work of art.
