EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative portrait captures the enigmatic figure of John Kyrle, a man who dedicated his life to philanthropy and charitable works in the historic market town of Ross-on-Wye, Herefordshire, England. Born in 1637, Kyrle, also known as the 'Man of Ross,' was a wealthy and influential local figure who used his resources and influence to improve the lives of his fellow townspeople. The image, dated around 1724, shows Kyrle in his later years, with a serious expression and piercing gaze. He is dressed in the fashionable attire of the time, with a voluminous white shirt, a richly textured waistcoat, and a dark coat. The intricate lace collar and cuffs add an air of opulence to the portrait. Despite his wealth and status, Kyrle was known for his humility and generosity. He established several charities and schools in Ross-on-Wye, including the Blue Coat School and the Almshouses, which provided education and shelter for the town's poor and needy. He also supported the local workhouse and hospital, and was a generous benefactor to the church. Kyrle's philanthropic works extended beyond Ross-on-Wye, as he also donated to charities in London and Oxford. His legacy continues to be celebrated in the town, with a statue of him standing proudly in the market square and a blue plaque commemorating his birthplace. This portrait offers a glimpse into the life of a remarkable man who used his wealth and influence to make a positive impact on his community. It serves as a reminder of the power of philanthropy and the importance of giving back to those in need.
