EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the young and vibrant Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, an American literary icon best known for his renowned works "Hiawatha" and the poignant line, "ships that pass in the night, and speak each other in passing." Born on February 27, 1807, in Portland, Maine, Longfellow grew up in a family deeply rooted in New England's literary and intellectual circles. At a young age, Longfellow demonstrated a keen interest in language and poetry. He attended Bowdoin College, where he studied under the esteemed professor and poet, Joseph Emerson. After graduating in 1825, Longfellow continued his education at the École des Hautes Études in Paris, where he honed his skills in French literature and language. Upon returning to the United States, Longfellow began his literary career as a teacher and later became a professor at Bowdoin College. He married Mary Storer Potter in 1831, and together they had six children. Tragedy struck the family when Longfellow's wife and two children died in a fire in 1872. Longfellow's grief was reflected in his poetry, particularly in "The Wife's Lament," which was published in 1874. Longfellow's most famous work, "Hiawatha," was published in 1855 and is considered one of the first major works of American literature. The epic poem tells the story of the Native American hero Hiawatha and his love for Minneapolis. Longfellow's use of rhythmic and rhyming verse made "Hiawatha" a popular success and cemented his place in American literary history. This portrait, taken in 1882, captures the essence of Longfellow's youthful spirit and intellectual prowess, a testament to his enduring legacy as a celebrated American writer.
