EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait captures the essence of Alexander Cruden, a renowned Scottish author and religious figure. The engraving, created by W Holl in 1870, showcases Cruden's dignified presence and intellectual prowess. Born in 1699 and passing away in 1770, he left an indelible mark on the world with his notable work - a concordance to the Bible. Cruden's dedication to his craft is evident as he gazes into the distance with a sense of purpose. His deep-set eyes reflect wisdom accumulated over years of studying scripture. As one of Scotland's eminent Scotsmen, this image exemplifies his commitment to religion and literature. The print transports us back to the eighteenth century when Cruden made significant contributions to biblical scholarship. It serves as a reminder of his invaluable role in deciphering complex texts for generations to come. In this monochromatic portrayal, we witness not only an accomplished writer but also a man deeply connected to his faith. His devotion shines through every line etched onto this print. As we observe Alexander Cruden's portrait today, it is impossible not to appreciate the impact he had on Christianity and biblical studies during his time. This image allows us glimpses into both the man behind the concordance and the era that shaped him – an enduring testament to his lasting legacy.
