EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigmatic figure of Jacques Delille, a renowned French poet, freemason, and translator. Created in 1830 by an unknown artist, this portrait showcases Delille's distinguished appearance during the late 18th to early 19th century. Delille was not only recognized for his literary contributions but also for his role as a professor of Latin poetry. However, due to political unrest during the French Revolution, he made the decision to leave Paris and seek refuge in the countryside. The engraving featured here is taken from "Biographical Illustrations" by Alfred Howard, published by Thomas Tegg, R. Griffin and Co. , J. Cumming in London, Glasgow, and Dublin in 1830. It provides us with a glimpse into Delille's life during this tumultuous period. In this image, Delille gazes away from the viewer with a slight smile on his face - perhaps reflecting both his inner contemplation and resilience amidst rebellion and revolution. His balding head adds character to his countenance while emphasizing wisdom gained through years of experience. As we delve into history through this evocative portrait print of Jacques Delille by an anonymous creator from Heritage Images collection; we are reminded of the profound impact that individuals like him have had on literature and society as a whole
