In this engraving after the illustration in the Ellesmere manuscript of Canterbury Tales, we see Chaucer depicted as The Manciple - a man responsible for buying provisions for a college, monastery, or inn of court.
Chaucer's literary works have stood the test of time and continue to be celebrated for their wit, humor, and insightful commentary on medieval society. As one of the most important figures in English literature, Chaucer's influence can still be felt today.
The intricate details captured in this engraving showcase not only Chaucer's likeness but also provide a glimpse into the world he inhabited during the late 14th century. The colors and shading bring depth to his expression, hinting at the complexity of his character and creative genius.
