EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Samuel Pepys, a renowned English diarist from the 17th century. In this wood engraving, created in 1849 and based on an original painting, we see Pepys alongside his wife, Elizabeth St. Michel Pepys. The couple is depicted in their study, surrounded by elements that reflect their upper-class status and intellectual pursuits. Seated at a grand desk with a quill in hand, Samuel Pepys exudes an air of authority and intellect as he engages in his writing. His wife stands beside him, her elegant gown showcasing her refined taste and social standing. A servant can be seen nearby, ready to assist with any needs they may have. The room itself is filled with objects that hint at the couple's interests and passions: books line the shelves while a globe sits atop a table, symbolizing their curiosity about the world beyond their own. An inkwell rests on the desk along with other writing tools necessary for capturing daily life through words. This image offers us a glimpse into the lives of these historical figures who left behind invaluable insights into their time period through Samuel's famous diary entries. It serves as a reminder of how art can transport us back in time to witness moments frozen forever - allowing us to connect with history on a deeper level.
