EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed figure of Thomas Percy, an influential English cleric, antiquarian, and poet who lived from 1729 to 1811. The exquisite stipple engraving was created in 1818 by a skilled artist after a portrait painted by the renowned Sir Joshua Reynolds. In this striking depiction, Percy is portrayed wearing a distinguished robe befitting his position as a clergyman. His gaze is thoughtful and introspective, reflecting his deep intellect and poetic spirit. Holding a book in his hands, he exudes an air of wisdom and erudition. Percy's contributions to literature are significant; he played an instrumental role in preserving traditional English ballads through his compilation titled "Reliques of Ancient English Poetry". As an antiquarian, he dedicated himself to studying history and collecting valuable artifacts that shed light on England's rich cultural heritage. Not only was Percy known for his intellectual pursuits but also for being a Protestant clergyman committed to serving his community faithfully. His stole draped over one shoulder symbolizes his ecclesiastical authority and commitment to guiding others spiritually. This remarkable engraving captures the essence of Thomas Percy as both a man of faith and learning during the vibrant 18th century. It serves as a testament to his enduring legacy as well as the artistic talent of Sir Joshua Reynolds whose brushstrokes brought him vividly to life on canvas.
