EDITORS COMMENTS
This self-portrait was taken by Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, better known by his pen name Lewis Carroll, in the year 1862. The photograph, a rare and intriguing glimpse into the life of this enigmatic figure, is currently held in a private collection. Dodgson, an English writer, mathematician, and photographer, is most famously recognized for his literary works, including "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and "Through the Looking-Glass." In this self-portrait, Dodgson appears serious and introspective, gazing directly into the camera lens with a thoughtful expression. His attire, consisting of a high collar shirt and a bow tie, is typical of the Victorian era. The photograph was taken using the albumen process, a popular photographic technique during that time. The image's crisp details and exceptional clarity are a testament to Dodgson's skill as a photographer. Despite his accomplishments in literature and mathematics, Dodgson's passion for photography is often overlooked. He was an avid photographer, documenting his friends, family, and even his literary characters through the lens. This self-portrait, however, offers a unique insight into the man behind the stories and equations, providing a glimpse into his personal life and artistic vision. The photograph's private ownership adds to its allure, making it a valuable and intriguing addition to the vast collection of Carroll's works. This self-portrait serves as a reminder of Dodgson's multifaceted talents and his enduring influence on literature, mathematics, and photography.
