EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Thomas Palmer, of Weston-super-Mare, Aged Ninety-Nine, a Veteran of the Peninsular War" transports us back to a bygone era. Created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, this print captures the essence of resilience and longevity. Intriguingly aged at ninety-nine years old, Thomas Palmer stands as a testament to the indomitable spirit of war veterans. Having fought in the Peninsular War, his weathered face tells stories of battles won and lost. The lines etched on his forehead are like maps that trace his journey through time. The Illustrated London News featured this illustration on February 23rd, 1889 – an homage to an extraordinary man who had witnessed history unfold before his eyes. The image offers us a glimpse into an era when honor and duty were paramount virtues. As we gaze upon Thomas Palmer's portrait today, we are reminded not only of his remarkable life but also of the passage of time itself. This engraving serves as a poignant reminder that age is merely a number; it is our experiences and resilience that truly define us. Bridgeman Images has preserved this piece from their private collection for all to admire. It is through such historical artifacts that we can pay tribute to those who have shaped our world with their courage and sacrifice.
