EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures Dr. Samuel Johnson, the renowned English writer, lexicographer, critic, and conversationalist, in deep thought as he sits at his desk in 1756. The checked background of the room adds a sense of warmth and homeliness, while the dimly lit scene emphasizes the focus on Johnson as he puts pen to paper. Johnson's intense gaze and the pile of papers before him suggest the depth of his intellectual pursuits. The presence of a quill pen and inkwell indicate the importance of writing in Johnson's life, as he was in the midst of compiling his groundbreaking Dictionary of the English Language. Johnson's contemporaries, Joshua Reynolds and Oliver Goldsmith, were frequent visitors to Johnson's home, and this portrait may have been painted during one of their visits. Reynolds, a prominent painter of the time, captured the essence of Johnson's character, showcasing his intelligence, determination, and deep concentration. Johnson's influence on English literature and language is immeasurable, and this image serves as a reminder of his enduring legacy. The year 1756 was a significant one for Johnson, as he published his "Plan of a Dictionary," which outlined his vision for creating a comprehensive dictionary of the English language. This ambitious project took him over seven years to complete, and it remains one of his most notable achievements. The completed Dictionary was published in 1755, and it revolutionized the English language by providing definitions and etymologies for over 40,000 words. This image is a testament to the dedication and passion of one of the greatest minds in English literary history. Johnson's contributions to the English language and literature continue to be celebrated, and this portrait offers a glimpse into the life of a man who shaped the way we communicate today.
