EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "John Kelsey" published by R. S. Kirby in 1802, offers a glimpse into the life of an extraordinary figure from the 17th century. The English School masterfully captures John Kelsey, a devout Quaker who embarked on a remarkable journey to Constantinople around 1680 with the audacious goal of converting the Grand Signore to Quakerism. In this full-length portrait, Kelsey stands tall and resolute, his broad-brimmed hat adding an air of distinction to his appearance. Draped in a cloak that exudes elegance and mystery, he embodies both strength and humility as he carries out his mission during the reign of Charles II. The artist skillfully portrays Kelsey's determination through every stroke of their engraving tool. His eyes reflect unwavering conviction while his posture conveys unwavering dedication to spreading his beliefs far beyond England's shores. As we gaze upon this print from our private collection, we are transported back in time to witness not only one man's pursuit but also an era defined by restoration and change. This image serves as a testament to the power of faith and resilience amidst adversity. Let us celebrate John Kelsey's courageous spirit as he ventured into unknown territories on this noble missionary endeavor. Through this artwork, we honor those who dare to challenge societal norms for what they believe is right - leaving an indelible mark on history for generations to come.
