EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the frontispiece portrait of the renowned English poet, John Milton, from his epic masterpiece "Paradise Lost". Etched by the talented Scottish artist William Strang in 1896, this rare and limited edition illustration captures the essence of Milton's profound literary work. The portrait depicts a half-length image of Milton, who is widely regarded as one of the greatest writers in English literature. Despite being blind during its composition, he penned "Paradise Lost" in blank verse with remarkable clarity and depth. This monumental poem explores biblical themes such as the fall of man and Christian mythology. Strang's meticulous etching skillfully brings out every intricate detail of Milton's visage, reflecting both his intellectual prowess and poetic genius. The series of 12 illustrations accompanying this frontispiece further enhances our understanding and appreciation for Milton's timeless words. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print, we are transported back to London in the 17th century when Milton first published his magnum opus. It serves as a testament to his enduring legacy as an influential author and writer whose works continue to inspire generations. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to own a piece of history—a tangible representation that immortalizes John Milton and celebrates his unparalleled contribution to literature.
