EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Laurence Sterne, a prominent figure of the 18th century. The image, taken in 1830 by an unknown creator, captures the essence of this Irish novelist and Anglican clergyman who left an indelible mark on British literature. Laurence Sterne was not only known for his literary contributions but also for his involvement in local politics and religious pursuits. Attending Jesus College at Cambridge University, he honed his intellectual prowess and later published sermons that resonated with many. However, Sterne's life was tragically cut short by tuberculosis, a disease that plagued him until his untimely death. This portrait from "Biographical Illustrations" by Alfred Howard serves as a poignant reminder of both the brilliance and fragility of this remarkable man. Dressed in a cloak that exudes elegance and sophistication, Sterne stands as a symbol of resilience amidst adversity. His piercing gaze reflects the depth of his thoughts and experiences as he navigated through turbulent times in both personal health struggles and political landscapes. As we delve into history through this engraving, we are reminded of Laurence Sterne's lasting impact on literature, religion, and society at large. This photograph is not just an artistic representation; it encapsulates the spirit of a man whose words continue to resonate with readers even centuries after his passing.
