EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Francis Quarles, an influential English poet from the 17th century. The image, taken in 1830 by an unknown creator, showcases a man who played a significant role during the English Civil War. Quarles was not only a renowned poet but also a dedicated Royalist who fervently supported the king. Educated at Christs College, Cambridge and Lincolns Inn, Quarles possessed both intellect and creativity. His most famous work, "Emblems" solidified his place in literary history. With eighteen children to his name, he led a remarkable life filled with family responsibilities alongside his poetic pursuits. The portrait reveals Quarles dressed in traditional clothing of that era – donning a coat with an elegant collar and jacket. His face is captured with great detail, showcasing his distinctive moustache that adds character to his countenance. This engraving comes from "Biographical Illustrations" by Alfred Howard, published by Thomas Tegg, R. Griffin and Co. , J. Cumming in London, Glasgow and Dublin in 1830. It offers us a glimpse into the past – into the life of one man whose poetry continues to resonate even centuries later.
