EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Seneca, Epistle XXVIII, Contemplation" takes us on a journey through time to the 18th century. The work of an English School artist, it now resides in a private collection. The image portrays Seneca's contemplative nature beautifully. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported into the world of Seneca's Morals by Sir Roger L Estrange. This illustration was featured in Meadows' edition of the book published in 1722. In this scene, Seneca appears deep in thought and reflection. His face is etched with lines that speak volumes about his wisdom and experience. It is as if he is inviting us to join him on his philosophical quest for understanding life's complexities. The attention to detail in this engraving is remarkable; every stroke seems purposeful and deliberate. The artist skillfully captures not only Seneca's physical appearance but also his inner turmoil and introspection. As we contemplate this artwork ourselves, it serves as a reminder of the timeless relevance of Seneca's teachings on morality and ethics. Through his writings, he challenges us to examine our own lives and strive for personal growth. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to connect with history while contemplating our own existence – a powerful combination indeed.
