EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enigmatic figure of Wyndham Lewis, an influential English painter and writer from the early 20th century. Taken in 1916 by renowned photographer Alvin Langdon Coburn, this portrait showcases Lewis seated with a contemplative expression on his face. Lewis's distinctive moustache adds to his intriguing persona, while his intense gaze seems to penetrate through the lens, revealing a man deeply immersed in artistic thought. The composition of the photograph highlights both Lewis's intellectual prowess and creative spirit. As an artist, Wyndham Lewis played a significant role in shaping modernist movements such as Vorticism. His bold and dynamic paintings often explored themes of urban life and industrialization. Simultaneously, he made substantial contributions to literature through novels like "Tarr" and critical essays that challenged conventional norms. In this image captured over a century ago, we catch a glimpse into the world of one of England's most innovative minds. It serves as a testament to Lewis's enduring legacy as an artist who defied societal expectations and pushed boundaries within both visual arts and literature. This print from Granger Art on Demand allows us to bring home not just an exquisite piece of art but also a tangible connection to history—a reminder of Wyndham Lewis's immense talent that continues to inspire artists today.
