EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating portrait of Robert Thorne, the founder of Bristol Grammar School, takes us back to the year 1825. Painted by Edward Cashin, this watercolor and ink masterpiece showcases Thorne's dignified presence and scholarly demeanor. The artist skillfully captures every detail of his subject's countenance, from the intelligent gaze in his eyes to the gentle curve of his lips. Thorne's contribution to education is immortalized in this artwork, as he established Bristol Grammar School alongside his brother Nicholas in 1532. The school has since become a renowned institution for learning and continues to shape young minds even today. Displayed at the Bristol Museum and Art Gallery in the UK, this print serves as a testament to Thorne's legacy. It was generously bequeathed by William Jerdone Braikenridge in 1908, ensuring that future generations can appreciate its historical significance. As we admire this painting, we are transported back in time to witness an era where knowledge was highly valued and revered. Robert Thorne stands before us as a symbol of intellectual pursuit and academic excellence. His half-length portrait exudes wisdom and inspires all who lay their eyes upon it. This remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images allows us to connect with history while celebrating the enduring impact of one man's vision for education.
