EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Charles Thurston Fogg-Elliot, a distinguished figure from the late 19th century. The portrait, created by renowned artist Sir Leslie Matthew Ward for Vanity Fair in 1894, captures Fogg-Elliot's side view as he stands confidently with his arms folded. Fogg-Elliot, a Cambridge University student at the time, exudes an air of intelligence and athleticism. His university cap and blazer signify his academic pursuits while also hinting at his involvement in sports. With a well-groomed moustache adorning his face, Fogg-Elliot epitomizes the quintessential British gentleman of that era. The composition beautifully highlights Fogg-Elliot's profile against a plain background, drawing attention to his strong features and dignified demeanor. The meticulous detailing of his clothing adds depth to the image while emphasizing the fashion trends prevalent during this period. Notably, Fogg-Elliot's association with rowing is evident through subtle cues such as the boat race jacket he wears proudly. This suggests his participation in one of Cambridge University's esteemed rowing teams. Sir Leslie Ward masterfully captures both the physical attributes and character traits of this remarkable individual through this portrait. As we gaze upon this print today, it serves as a window into history - offering us glimpses into academia, sportsmanship, and society during Britain's vibrant Victorian era.
