The Death of Chatterton,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a poignant and haunting masterpiece by Thomas Oldham Barlow, depicts the tragic end of the 18th century English poet, Thomas Chatterton. The print, created in 1860, is a mixed method engraving on ivory chine laid down on off-white plate paper. The image captures Chatterton in his final moments, lying lifeless on a bed in an attic bedroom. The room, shrouded in darkness, exudes an air of melancholy and despair. Chatterton, a young man from a humble background, gained fame for his romantic and heroic verses, which he attributed to a medieval monk. However, his deception was eventually discovered, leading to a deep sense of shame and despair. In 1770, at the age of just 17, Chatterton took his own life by drinking a solution of arsenic and water in the attic of his family's home in Bristol, England. Barlow's rendition of this tragic event is both powerful and evocative. The artist masterfully captures the heroic and romantic aspects of Chatterton's life, while also conveying the despair and hopelessness that led him to take his own life. The image, with its intricate engraving and delicate shading, is a testament to Barlow's artistic skill and vision. The Death of Chatterton is a significant work in the Pre-Raphaelite artistic school, which emphasized a return to the intense and emotional use of color and detail in art. The print is now a cherished part of the collection at the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences with its timeless story of love, heroism, and tragedy.
