EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Alphonse Legros, the renowned Slade Professor at London University during the 19th century. The image was taken by Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, better known as Lewis Carroll, who is famous for his literary works such as Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Legros, a prominent figure in the art world, is depicted with an air of wisdom and authority. His piercing gaze and distinguished features reflect his expertise as a professor and artist. This portrait showcases Legros' passion for education and his significant contributions to the field of art. The photograph was originally used as an illustration for Helmut Gernsheim's book titled Lewis Carroll Photographer. Published in 1949 by Max Parrish, this book delves into Carroll's lesser-known talent as a photographer. The timeless quality of this image transports us back to the early 20th century when it was captured. Its black and white composition adds depth and character to Legros' persona while evoking a sense of nostalgia. This print serves as a testament to both Legros' legacy as an influential professor at London University and Lewis Carroll's multifaceted artistic abilities beyond writing. It stands not only as a piece of historical documentation but also as a work of art that continues to captivate viewers today.
