EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1769, offering a glimpse into the world of Reverend James Granger. The image showcases two elements: a letter written by Granger himself and a view of his picturesque residence in Shiplake. Created by artist James Granger, this print is an extract from Historical and Literary Curiosities, a collection of fac-similies of original documents compiled by Charles John Smith in 1840. The letter depicted here was addressed to the Reverend Mr Cole and discusses the prevailing mania for collecting English portraits during that time. It serves as a testament to Granger's deep interest in art and his contribution to preserving historical artifacts. The intricate handwriting on display reflects both his passion for correspondence and his meticulous attention to detail. Accompanying the letter is a stunning view of Reverend James Granger's residence at Shiplake, situated in Oxfordshire, England. This charming parsonage stands as an embodiment of eighteenth-century architecture, with its elegant design capturing the essence of that era. As we delve into this monochrome masterpiece, we are transported back through time - witnessing not only the beauty of these buildings but also gaining insight into one man's dedication to preserving history through art. This print offers us an opportunity to appreciate both the craftsmanship behind it and our rich cultural heritage that it represents.
