EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigmatic figure of Dee, a renowned mathematician, astronomer, astrologer, occult philosopher, and trusted advisor to Queen Elizabeth I. The image is taken from "Biographical Illustrations" by Alfred Howard, published in 1830. Dee's bearded face exudes wisdom and intrigue as he gazes into the distance. His piercing eyes seem to hold countless secrets of the universe that he dedicated his life to unraveling. With his distinguished moustache adding an air of sophistication, Dee embodies the essence of a learned scholar from both the 16th and 19th centuries. The engraving showcases Dee surrounded by books and celestial bodies—a testament to his deep knowledge in various fields. It serves as a visual representation of his significant contributions not only to mathematics but also astrology and astronomy. As one delves into this portrait, it becomes evident that Dee was more than just an academic; he was a man deeply connected with mysticism and spirituality. His involvement in occult practices adds another layer of complexity to his persona. This photograph invites us into the world of an extraordinary individual who played a crucial role in shaping British history during Elizabethan times. It serves as a reminder that even within scholarly pursuits lies room for exploration beyond conventional boundaries—an idea embodied by John Dee himself.
