EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative portrait, titled "B. Reading, Engraver, June 16, 1798," was created by the renowned English artist Samuel de Wilde. The image captures a young man named Burnet Reading, who proudly presents himself as an engraver. Dressed in the fashion of the late 18th century, Reading wears a simple yet elegant outfit. He is depicted leaning on an elbow, exuding a sense of confidence and pride in his occupation. The intricate details of his clothing, from the high-waisted trousers to the fashionable hat, are skillfully etched on white wove paper and tipped to cream wove paper. The portrait is a testament to the heritage of British art and the importance of the arts during this period. It provides a glimpse into the life of a young man from the country who has made a name for himself in the city as an engraver. The portrait is currently housed in the prestigious Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences. The image, with its timeless quality, invites viewers to reflect on the past and the evolution of the arts, particularly the art of engraving. This portrait is a reminder of the rich history of art and the people who have contributed to its development throughout the centuries.
