EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the first page of Samuel Pepys' manuscript diary, dated 1 January 1660. Samuel Pepys, an influential English diarist from the 17th century, left behind a remarkable record of his life and times through his meticulous journaling. The image transports us back in time as we witness the elegant handwriting that graces the aged parchment. Each stroke of ink tells a story, capturing moments and emotions experienced by this renowned diarist over three centuries ago. As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we are reminded of the power of personal reflection and documentation. Through his diary entries, Pepys provides us with invaluable insights into daily life during a pivotal period in English history. It is fascinating to imagine how these words came to be written on that fateful New Year's Day in 1660. What thoughts were running through Pepys' mind? What events did he anticipate or hope for as he embarked on this new chapter? This print serves as a reminder that our own stories matter; they shape our understanding of ourselves and contribute to the collective narrative of humanity. It encourages us to reflect on our own lives and consider what legacy we may leave behind for future generations.
