EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Charles Rollin, a prominent figure in French history during the 17th and 18th centuries. The image, taken in 1830 by an unknown creator, captures Rollin's dignified presence as he gazes away from the camera. Charles Rollin was not only a renowned historian but also an esteemed educator who served as the rector of the University of Paris. However, his religious beliefs and Jansenist principles led to him being deprived of certain appointments throughout his career. Despite these setbacks, Rollin remained steadfast in his convictions. The photograph portrays Rollin dressed in traditional attire for that era - a cloak with a high collar - reflecting both his status as an intellectual and his connection to France's rich cultural heritage. His profile is captured beautifully, emphasizing his distinguished features and thoughtful expression. This image 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 life of this influential man whose contributions to literature and education continue to be celebrated today. As we admire this portrait of Charles Rollin, we are reminded of the resilience required to uphold one's beliefs amidst adversity while leaving behind an enduring legacy that shapes our understanding of history.
