EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of an angry and wicked man, as depicted in an 18th-century engraving by English School. The intense facial expression on this man's visage reveals a deep-seated rage and furor that is hard to ignore. With his piercing gaze and contorted features, he embodies the very epitome of anger and wickedness. Engraved by John Barlow and published in Johann Kaspar Lavater's renowned work "Essays on physiognomy" this image delves into the realm of human emotions and expressions. It serves as a testament to the power of visual representation in conveying complex feelings such as anger. The composition focuses solely on the man's headshot, allowing viewers to fully immerse themselves in his menacing presence. Every line etched onto his face tells a story, reflecting not only his personal state but also offering insights into broader themes like physiognomy - the study of facial features' relation to character traits. As we delve deeper into this artwork, it becomes apparent that it explores more than just one emotion; it encapsulates wickedness itself. This portrayal resonates with our understanding of humanity's darker side, reminding us of the existence of seven deadly sins. Intriguingly capturing both feeling and emotion within its frame, this print from Bridgeman Images invites contemplation about our own capacity for anger while simultaneously serving as a reminder to tread carefully along life's moral path.
