EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the historic meeting between two renowned figures of the 19th century: Giuseppe Garibaldi and Alfred, Lord Tennyson, at Faringford House on the Isle of Wight in 1864. Garibaldi, the Italian patriot and military leader, had just completed his successful campaign to unify Italy, earning him the moniker "The Hero of Two Worlds." Tennyson, on the other hand, was the Poet Laureate of the United Kingdom, a position he held from 1850 until his death in 1892. The meeting between these two influential men took place in the picturesque setting of Faringford House, which belonged to Tennyson's sister, Emily Sellwood. The encounter was a significant moment in history, as Garibaldi and Tennyson shared a deep admiration for each other's work and ideals. Garibaldi was a fan of Tennyson's poetry, while Tennyson was inspired by Garibaldi's courage and determination. The photograph shows Garibaldi and Tennyson standing side by side, their expressions reflecting a mutual respect and admiration. Garibaldi, dressed in his military uniform, is seen with a cigar in hand, while Tennyson, wearing a formal suit, gazes intently at his Italian counterpart. The backdrop of Faringford House and its beautiful gardens adds to the serene atmosphere of the moment. This photograph is a testament to the enduring power of art and literature to bring people together, transcending political and geographical boundaries. It serves as a reminder of the profound impact that Garibaldi and Tennyson had on their respective countries and the world, and the lasting legacy they left behind.
