EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic "Portrait of Benjamin Franklin" engraved by Thomas B. Welch, a renowned artist from the 19th century. The engraving beautifully captures the essence of one of America's most influential figures, Benjamin Franklin (1707-1790), who played a pivotal role in shaping the nation's history. In this half-length portrait, Franklin is depicted as an intellectual powerhouse engrossed in his studies. Sitting at his desk with spectacles perched on his nose and wearing a distinguished wig, he exudes wisdom and intellect. As an American politician, scientist, philosopher, and signer of the Declaration of Independence in 1776, Franklin's contributions to society were immense. The image transports us back to a time when America was still finding its identity as an independent nation. It serves as a reminder of our rich historical heritage and the remarkable individuals who paved the way for progress. Franklin's portrait not only symbolizes his personal achievements but also represents the spirit of innovation and curiosity that defined early America. This print is part of The Stapleton Collection housed in a private collection—an invaluable piece that allows us to connect with our past and appreciate those who shaped our present. As we gaze upon this extraordinary artwork captured by Bridgeman Images through Martin David's skilled hands after Martin himself painted it based on Franklin’s likeness—we are reminded once again why history continues to captivate us with its stories of great minds like Benjamin Franklin.
