EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait print captures the essence of Augustus Henry Lane-Fox Pitt Rivers, a distinguished English officer, ethnologist, and archaeologist from the 19th century. The photograph, taken by an anonymous English photographer, showcases Pitt Rivers in all his glory as he gazes confidently into the distance. Dressed in his military uniform with a meticulously placed hat adorning his head, Pitt Rivers exudes authority and intellect. His piercing eyes reflect a deep understanding of the world around him while hinting at the countless adventures he has embarked upon during his career. The background has been skillfully removed from this print to ensure that all attention is focused solely on Pitt Rivers himself. This deliberate choice allows us to appreciate every detail of his countenance - from the lines etched on his face that speak volumes about wisdom gained through experience to the subtle smile playing at the corners of his lips. As we delve into history through this image, we are reminded of Pitt Rivers' significant contributions to archeology and ethnology. His work not only shaped our understanding of different cultures but also laid the foundation for modern museum practices. This portrait serves as a testament to both Germanic culture and European heritage as it highlights one man's dedication to unraveling humanity's past. It stands as a reminder that knowledge knows no boundaries or borders within Europe or beyond its shores.
