EDITORS COMMENTS
In this self-portrait, created by the talented artist Thomas Patch in the late 18th century, we are transported back in time to witness a unique blend of artistry and technology. The print showcases Patch holding callipers over a mask, providing us with an intriguing glimpse into his creative process. As an accomplished painter and caricaturist, Patch was known for his ability to capture not only physical likeness but also the essence of his subjects. In this self-portrait, he skillfully combines elements of both genres as he measures and analyzes the features of a mask before him. This juxtaposition highlights Patch's mastery in merging traditional artistic techniques with innovative tools. Seated confidently at his workspace, Patch invites us to observe him at work - a true testament to his dedication and passion for his craft. His intense focus is palpable as he meticulously examines every detail through the lens of these measuring instruments. This engraving not only captures an intimate moment from Patch's artistic journey but also serves as a reminder of how technology has always played a role in shaping artistic expression throughout history. It is through such timeless works that we can appreciate both the evolution of art forms and the enduring creativity that transcends generations.
