EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Johnson started up and stood still, his Majesty approached him, and at once was courteously easy" by the English School in the 19th century captures a significant moment from The Life of Samuel Johnson by James Boswell. In this beautifully restored image, we witness an encounter between Dr. Johnson and King George III. The scene unfolds with Johnson abruptly rising to his feet while remaining motionless as the king approaches him. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation as these two influential figures come face to face. Despite their contrasting positions in society, there is a sense of mutual respect and admiration evident in their interaction. King George III exudes an air of regal grace as he extends kindness towards Johnson, instantly putting him at ease. This depiction highlights the monarch's ability to effortlessly connect with people from all walks of life, even renowned intellectuals like Dr. Samuel Johnson. Through this engraving, we are transported back in time to witness a remarkable meeting between two extraordinary individuals who left indelible marks on history. It serves as a testament to the power of civility and understanding that can bridge gaps between different social strata.
