EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic figure of Ben Johnson, a prominent English actor, playwright, dramatist, lyric poet, and literary critic of the Jacobean era. The image is taken from "The History of England" by Paul de Rapin-Thoyras and was published in London by Harrison. In this 1785 portrait, Johnson's direct gaze captures our attention as he stands confidently dressed in an elegant cloak. The oval-shaped frame adds a touch of sophistication to the composition, emphasizing his importance within British literature and theater. As one of the most influential figures in English drama during the seventeenth century, Johnson's works continue to be celebrated for their satirical nature and profound insight into human nature. This engraving offers us a glimpse into his world - a man dedicated to his craft with an unwavering commitment to artistic excellence. Beyond his professional achievements as a playwright and poet, Johnson's impact on British culture cannot be overstated.
