EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the distinguished figure of Sir Edward John Poynter, captured in 1877 by the talented artist Alphonse Legros. Poynter, a renowned British painter and professor, was a prominent figure in the artistic movement of the 19th century. With his commanding presence and direct gaze towards the camera, he exudes an air of confidence and authority. Legros' etching and drypoint technique beautifully captures every intricate detail of Poynter's bearded face, emphasizing his facial hair as a symbol of wisdom and maturity. The use of black on laid paper adds depth to this remarkable portrait, highlighting both Poynter's individuality as well as his contribution to Britain's rich artistic heritage. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , this artwork serves as a testament to Legros' skillful craftsmanship and Poynter's significant role within the Royal Academy. As one person stands before this striking image, they are transported back to a time when realism reigned supreme in art. The print invites viewers to appreciate not only Poynter's profession but also his lasting impact on the art world. It is through pieces like these that we can truly understand and admire the legacy left behind by influential figures such as Sir Edward John Poynter.
