The image showcases a letter written by Pope to Lord Halifax on December 3rd, 1714. The letter serves as a humble reminder to Lord Halifax not to forget Pope's translation of Homer, which he had previously entrusted to him before its publication. It also expresses gratitude towards Lord Halifax for his favors and generosity. Pope's meticulous penmanship is evident in the intricate details of this handwritten letter, showcasing his skill as both an author and a correspondent. The facsimile captures the essence of this historical artifact, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and authenticity of Pope's original handwriting. As we delve deeper into the context surrounding this piece, we learn that Volume 1 of Pope's translation was published in June 1715. This adds significance to the urgency expressed in his plea for remembrance from Lord Halifax. This print not only offers us a visual representation of an important moment in literary history but also provides insight into the personal relationships between authors and their patrons during this era.
