Taken from a series of cigarette cards entitled Celebrities of British History, produced by Carreas Ltd in 1935, this portrait captures the essence of a man who left an indelible mark on English literature. Lord Tennyson, born Alfred Tennyson in 1809 and passing away in 1892, was one of the most influential poets of the Victorian era. His profound words resonated with readers across generations, earning him widespread acclaim and recognition. This image portrays him as a distinguished figure with his refined appearance and thoughtful gaze.
