EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the portrait of Mr Edward Bright, a prominent figure in 18th century England. Born in 1721, Bright was known for his occupation as a grocer from Maldon, Essex. However, it was his extraordinary size that made him truly remarkable. At the time of his death in 1750, he held the title of being the fattest man in England. Described as an imposing figure, Bright's coat was said to be so large that it could accommodate seven men standing inside it. Weighing a staggering 47.5 stone (665 lb or 302 kg), he became an icon of obesity during this era. The engraving showcased here is from Universal Magazine and provides us with a glimpse into this larger-than-life character who defied societal norms through his immense size. The monochrome image emphasizes both the grandeur and solemnity surrounding Mr Edward Bright's presence. As we observe this portrait, we are transported back to a time when occupation defined one's identity and physical appearance often shaped public perception. Through this photograph print by Unknown creator and featuring Edward Bright himself, we gain insight into not only an individual but also into society's fascination with human diversity during the eighteenth century.
