EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Portrait of Professor Alexander Kennedy, 1884" showcases the remarkable talent of artist Alphonse Legros. The print, measuring 21x15.9 cm, is housed in the prestigious Dallas Museum of Art in Texas, USA. In this portrait, we see a distinguished man with a striking beard and an air of wisdom about him. This is none other than Sir Alexander Blackie William Kennedy (1847-1928), a prominent British civil and electrical engineer and academic. Known for his significant contributions to engineering and academia, Professor Kennedy's influence extended far beyond his time. Legros skillfully captures the essence of Professor Kennedy through meticulous detail and expert shading techniques. The profile view emphasizes the subject's strong features while highlighting his intellectual prowess. The Victorian era ambiance permeates this lithograph as it transports us back to a time when portraiture was highly valued as an art form. Legros' engraving technique adds depth and texture to every stroke, creating a sense of realism that draws viewers into the image. As we gaze upon this extraordinary piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded not only of Professor Alexander Kennedy's legacy but also of the power that art holds in preserving history and immortalizing influential figures like him.
