EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print showcases Alfred Henry Forrester, better known by his pen name Alfred Crowquill (1804-1872), an English artist, illustrator, and author of the Victorian era. The image, taken in 1857, may be a self-portrait, capturing the essence of the charismatic and versatile artist. Crowquill is depicted in profile, donning a top hat and a long, dark coat adorned with heraldic arms. A curtain provides a theatrical backdrop, while a jug and quill with a tasseled pen rest on a table, hinting at his artistic pursuits. A fez sits atop the table, possibly a nod to his travels or cultural exploration. The artist is seen seated in a chair, with a cloak draped over his shoulders and a snake coiled around the back, symbolizing the creative energy and power of the artist. The intricate detailing of his attire, the textured fabric of the curtain, and the subtle shadows create a sense of depth and dimension. Alfred Crowquill was renowned for his satirical and humorous illustrations, which often poked fun at the societal norms and political figures of the time. His work was published in various periodicals, including Punch, and he also authored several books. This photograph offers a glimpse into the personal life of this fascinating figure, revealing the man behind the charicatures and illustrations that continue to captivate audiences today.
