Frideric, the renowned composer of the late Baroque era, left an indelible mark on the world of music. Born George Frideric Handel in 1685 in Germany, he later became a naturalized Englishman and adopted the name Frederick Handel. His talent was evident from a young age, and his compositions continue to captivate audiences centuries later. One iconic image that represents Handel's genius is the cover of his masterpiece "Messiah. " Published in 1742, this engraving showcases the sheer beauty and complexity of his work. Another engraving titled "Apotheosis of Handel" immortalizes him as a musical deity, highlighting his immense contribution to classical music. Handel's portrait by Chase Emerson further emphasizes his significance as an artist. Painted in 1874-1922 by an American artist, it captures both his regal presence and creative spirit. The sheet music cover for "Samson, " published posthumously in 1759, serves as a testament to Handel's enduring legacy. Various sculptures also pay homage to this musical maestro. A painted ceramic bust from the early 19th century portrays him with great detail and reverence. In Living Biographies of Great Composers, he is referred to as George Frideric or Frederick Hande - showcasing different variations of his name throughout history. Engravings by William Bromley and Charles Turner provide additional glimpses into Handel's visage while offering insight into how he was perceived during their respective eras. Poets Corner at Westminster Abbey features prominently among these images – a fitting tribute considering its status as a final resting place for many literary giants. The marble statue modeled after Handel stands proudly at Victoria & Albert Museum today; it serves as a tangible representation of his lasting impact on artistry worldwide. Lastly, a plaster bust immortalizes him with intricate details that capture not only physical features but also the essence of his musical genius.
