EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia print captures the esteemed poet Alfred, Lord Tennyson, on the 28th of September in 1857. Taken by Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, better known as Lewis Carroll, this portrait showcases Tennyson's dignified presence and intellectual prowess. Seated in a chair with his hat resting beside him, Tennyson exudes Victorian elegance and sophistication. His full beard adds to his distinguished appearance, while his three-quarter length pose allows us to appreciate his commanding stature. What makes this photograph even more remarkable is the autograph cut out from a letter written by Tennyson himself to Lewis Carroll. This personal touch connects these two literary giants and offers a glimpse into their friendship. The black and white composition adds an air of timelessness to the image, emphasizing Tennyson's lasting impact on literature and society. As Poet Laureate from 1850 until his death in 1892, he left an indelible mark on English poetry with works like "The Charge of the Light Brigade" and "In Memoriam". Preserved within a private collection but made available for public appreciation through Fine Art Finder's collaboration with Bridgeman Images, this photograph serves as a testament to both Tennyson's enduring legacy and Dodgson's artistic talent behind the lens.
