1837 1887 Clergyman Controversial Crucifix Habit Leycester Lyne Tonsure Vfair
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigmatic figure of Joseph Leycester Lyne, also known as Father Ignatius, a controversial clergyman from the late 19th century. The image, taken at the Vfair in 1887, shows Father Ignatius in profile, wearing his traditional clergyman's habit and holding a crucifix.
Father Ignatius was known for his unorthodox beliefs and practices within the Anglican Church, which often caused controversy among his peers. Despite this reputation, he is seen in this photograph with a warm smile on his face, perhaps hinting at the complexity of his character.
The historical significance of this image cannot be understated. It offers a glimpse into the life and persona of a man who defied convention and challenged societal norms during a time of great change and upheaval.
From his distinctive tonsure to his serene expression, every detail captured in this photograph tells a story about Father Ignatius and the era in which he lived. Mary Evans Picture Library has preserved this piece of history for future generations to study and appreciate.
Intriguing and thought-provoking, this print is not just an image but a window into another time - one that continues to fascinate and inspire curiosity today.
