1. Title: "Lewis Morris: A Welsh Lawyer and Literary Pioneer". This portrait captures the enigmatic figure of Lewis Morris (1833-1907), a Welsh lawyer and prolific writer who left an indelible mark on both the legal and literary landscapes of his time. Born in Llanymynech, Shropshire, Morris dedicated his early years to the study of law, eventually becoming a respected member of the legal community in Wales. However, Morris's passion for literature was equally strong, and he began publishing poems, stories, and essays in various Welsh and English periodicals. His literary prowess earned him a reputation as a leading figure in the Welsh literary renaissance, and he was instrumental in founding the Welsh Literary Society in 1877. Morris's literary contributions were not limited to poetry and prose. He also translated works from English to Welsh, including Shakespeare's "Macbeth" and "A Midsummer Night's Dream," which helped to bring the Bard's works to a wider Welsh audience. Despite his success in both fields, Morris remained humble and dedicated to his community. He used his legal expertise to advocate for the rights of the working class and the marginalized, and his literary works often reflected his commitment to social justice. This photograph, taken in the late 19th century, captures Morris in the prime of his career, with a thoughtful expression that hints at the depth of his intellect and the complexity of his character. The image serves as a reminder of the remarkable life and achievements of this Welsh lawyer and literary pioneer. Image Source: Mary Evans Prints Online. Reproduced with permission.
