EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of A E Housman, a renowned poet and man of letters, during his time in London in 1896. The image, taken by an English photographer from the 19th century, showcases Housman's timeless elegance and intellectual aura. In this portrait, Housman exudes a sense of quiet contemplation as he gazes into the distance. His piercing eyes reveal a depth of wisdom acquired through years of literary exploration and classical study. The lines etched on his face tell stories untold, hinting at the profound emotions that lie beneath his composed exterior. The photograph was later featured as an illustration for a volume of recollections about Alfred Edward Housman published by Bromsgrove School in 1936. It serves as a visual testament to Housman's enduring legacy and influence on future generations. This print is part of a private collection that has preserved this precious moment frozen in time. Its inclusion within Look and Learn allows us to appreciate not only the artistic mastery behind its creation but also offers insight into one of history's most celebrated poets. As we gaze upon this remarkable portrait, we are transported back to London in 1896 - witnessing firsthand the brilliance and enigma that defined A E Housman.
