EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the legendary English author, Geoffrey Chaucer, in the prime of his life as a monk, riding vigorously on horseback with the use of spurs. Dated circa 1387, this print offers a unique glimpse into the historical context of Chaucer's life before he became the father of English literature. Chaucer, born in 1343, spent his early years as a monk at the Benedictine Abbey of Westminster. While the exact date of this photograph is uncertain, it is believed to depict Chaucer during this period. The monk's habit, with its distinctive cowl and robe, is clearly visible in the image, adding to its historical authenticity. The horseback ride, with Chaucer's focused gaze and the determined set of his jaw, suggests a man of action and adventure. The use of spurs indicates a skilled rider, further emphasizing Chaucer's physical prowess. This print also serves as a reminder of Chaucer's later achievements. By the late 14th century, he had left the monastery and began his illustrious literary career. He is best known for his collection of stories, "The Canterbury Tales," which was published in the early 15th century. These tales, told by a diverse group of pilgrims on their way to Canterbury Cathedral, are considered a seminal work in the English literary tradition. The image of Chaucer on horseback, with the spurs at his feet, offers a compelling juxtaposition of his monastic past and his future as a literary giant. It is a testament to Chaucer's versatility and his ability to transcend the boundaries of his time, making him a beloved figure in English literature.
