EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the essence of Edward Charles Wickham, a distinguished figure in English academia and clergy. Painted by the renowned artist William Blake Richmond, this oil on canvas print showcases Wickham's intellectual depth and thoughtful demeanor. Dressed in his academic robes, Wickham sits in a pensive pose, exuding an air of wisdom and contemplation. His balding head adds to his scholarly appearance, while his somber expression hints at the weight of knowledge he carries within him. Wickham's impressive accomplishments are reflected in this painting. As Dean of Lincoln and Headmaster of Wellington College, he left an indelible mark on both institutions. A Latin scholar par excellence, he also gained recognition as an editor of the esteemed poet Horace. The three-quarter length composition allows us to fully appreciate the intricate details captured by Richmond's brushstrokes. Every line etched on Wickham's face tells a story; every crease symbolizes years spent immersed in academia and deep thought. This remarkable piece is not just a mere depiction but a testament to Wickham's contribution to education and literature during his lifetime. Preserved courtesy of New College, Oxford, it serves as a reminder that great minds like Edward Charles Wickham continue to inspire generations with their intellect and dedication even after they have departed from this world.
