EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable John Addington Symonds, a prominent British cultural historian, writer on homosexuality, poet, and translator. Engraved by Joseph Brown from an exquisite drawing by Edward Clifford, this portrait exudes elegance and intellectual prowess. Symonds' profound contributions to the understanding of Renaissance Italy are immortalized in this engraving from the book "A Short History of the Renaissance in Italy" published in 1894. His extensive knowledge and passion for Italian culture shine through his writings as he delves into its rich history. Not only was Symonds an esteemed scholar, but he also played a significant role in advocating for LGBTQ+ rights during a time when such discussions were considered taboo. As a writer on homosexuality himself, he fearlessly challenged societal norms with his groundbreaking works that shed light on same-sex relationships throughout history. The vertical composition of this illustration perfectly captures Symonds' dignified presence. Every line etched into the plate reflects his depth of character and unwavering dedication to his craft. Ken Welsh's artistry brings forth an appreciation for both historical figures like Symonds and their enduring impact on our society today. This print serves as a reminder of the immense courage it takes to challenge prevailing beliefs while leaving behind an indelible legacy that continues to inspire generations.
