EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed figure of Robert Nares, an English philologist, antiquary, and Archdeacon of Stafford. Engraved by the talented Samuel Freeman in 1773-1857, this portrait emanates a sense of intellectual depth and scholarly wisdom. Nares is depicted as a distinguished clergyman, his gaze fixed upon the pages of a book he holds delicately in his hands. The half-length composition allows us to appreciate his refined features and dignified countenance. His attire reflects his ecclesiastical role with its clerical collar and formal coat. The lithographic technique employed by John Hoppner beautifully captures the intricate details of this historical image. Published around 1835 in volume II of the National Portrait Gallery collection, it serves as a testament to Nares' significant contributions to academia during the 18th century. As we delve into Nares' life through this remarkable print, we are transported back in time to an era where knowledge was revered above all else. This piece not only honors Nares' legacy but also pays homage to the importance of education and intellectual pursuits. Displayed within a private collection today, this print reminds us that even centuries later, individuals like Robert Nares continue to inspire us with their dedication to scholarship and their commitment to expanding our understanding of language and history.
