The Death of Alfred, Lord Tennyson - A Poetic Farewell
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this poignant lithograph, we witness the solemn scene of the passing of one of England's greatest literary icons, Alfred, Lord Tennyson. Captured by artist Samuel Begg and published in Black & White magazine on October 15th, 1892, this image immortalizes a moment that marked the end of an era. Surrounded by his loved ones and attended by a compassionate doctor at his bedside, Tennyson lies peacefully on his deathbed. The room is filled with an atmosphere heavy with grief and mourning as those closest to him bid their final farewells. Lady Emily Tennyson weeps softly beside her husband while friends and family gather around in sorrowful silence. The late 19th century furnishings add a touch of historical authenticity to the scene. The grand bed upon which Tennyson rests symbolizes both comfort and finality – a place where dreams were once woven into poetic masterpieces now becomes a vessel for eternal rest. This image captures not only the loss felt by those present but also reflects the collective sadness experienced throughout Britain and beyond. As poet laureate, Tennyson's words had touched countless souls across Europe and beyond; his passing left an indelible void in the world of literature. Through this evocative print from Fine Art Finder's private collection, we are reminded of the power that great writers hold over our hearts and minds long after they have departed from this earthly realm.
