EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the esteemed artist and Royal Academician, Alfred Elmore, in 1881. Born in Ireland, Elmore made his mark on the art world at a young age, exhibiting his work at the prestigious Royal Academy when he was just 19 years old. Throughout his career, he specialized in painting historical subjects and is best known for his masterpiece "Two Gentlemen of Verona" which depicts a scene from Shakespeare's play. In this portrait, Elmore exudes an air of wisdom and experience with his distinguished beard and thoughtful gaze. His artistic prowess is evident as we see him confidently posing against a plain backdrop, allowing us to focus solely on his presence. The photograph itself is part of the renowned collection "Men of Mark: A Gallery of Contemporary Portraits". Taken by Lock and Whitfield from life, it showcases their skillful ability to capture not only physical likeness but also the essence of their subjects' professions. As we admire this monochrome image from the late 19th century, we are transported back to Victorian Britain - a time when artists like Alfred Elmore played significant roles in shaping cultural landscapes. This print serves as both a testament to Elmore's talent as well as a glimpse into an era where artistry thrived amidst societal changes.
