EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the distinguished and intellectual appearance of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882), an influential American poet and literary figure of the 19th century. The photograph, taken in 1878, reveals Longfellow's expressive eyes and thoughtful expression, which have long intrigued admirers of his works. Longfellow is best known for his epic poem "The Song of Hiawatha," published in 1855, which brought Native American mythology to a wider audience. His poetry often explored themes of love, nature, and the human condition, making him one of the most popular American poets of his time. One of his most famous lines, "The ships that pass in the night, and speak each other in passing, only a signal shown, and a brief word or two exchanged," comes from his poem "The Light of the Lighthouse." Born in Portland, Maine, Longfellow grew up in a family of writers and artists. He studied at Bowdoin College and later at the École Normale Supérieure in Paris. Throughout his life, he was deeply influenced by European literature and culture, which is reflected in his poetry. Despite his success, Longfellow faced personal tragedies, including the death of his wife and the amputation of his foot, which he wrote about in his poetry. This photograph, taken during the later years of Longfellow's life, offers a glimpse into the mind of a man who was not only a master of language but also a profound observer of the human experience. His enduring legacy continues to inspire generations of poets and readers, making him an essential figure in American literary history.
