EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the distinguished figure of William Weldon Champneys, a prominent historical personality. Born in 1807 and passing away in 1875, Champneys held the esteemed position of Dean of Lichfield during his lifetime. The engraving, skillfully crafted by D. J. Pound from a photograph taken by Mayall, captures the essence of this eminent individual. With an air of authority and wisdom emanating from his countenance, Champneys' portrait transports us back to the Victorian era. His stern yet composed expression hints at the weighty responsibilities he bore as Dean of Lichfield. This image is part of "The Drawing-Room Of Eminent Personages Volume 2" a book published in London in 1860 that sought to immortalize influential figures through portraiture. The vertical composition adds to the grandeur and formality conveyed by this historical engraving. As we gaze upon it, we are reminded not only of Champneys' significant role within society but also of the rich tapestry that is British history. Ken Welsh's masterful reproduction allows us to appreciate both the artistic skill involved in creating such engravings and their value as historical artifacts. This print serves as a window into another time—a testament to an era when individuals like William Weldon Champneys played pivotal roles shaping society with their intellect and leadership.
