EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Reverend Charles Kingsley, an influential English cleric and writer from the 19th century. The portrait showcases his distinguished features - a bearded face with prominent sideburns that were fashionable during that era. Reverend Charles Kingsley was not only known for his religious contributions but also for his literary achievements. He authored notable works such as "The Water-Babies" in 1863, along with several historical novels including "Westward Ho!" in 1855 and "Hereward the Wake" in 1865. His support for Darwin's ideas, particularly praising Darwin's groundbreaking work "Origin of Species" further solidified his reputation as a forward-thinking intellectual. As an Anglican clergyman within the Church of England, Kingsley played a significant role in shaping Victorian Christianity. This print serves as a testament to his dedication to both religion and literature, showcasing him as a man of faith and intellect. The image is an engraving taken from an extra supplement to The Illustrated London News on January 30th, 1875. It provides us with a glimpse into the life and appearance of this remarkable figure who left an indelible mark on British society during the nineteenth century.
