EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: This print showcases Thomas Tyers, a prominent figure of the 18th century. Born in 1726 and passing away in 1787, Tyers was an English playboy known for his extravagant lifestyle and his ventures into writing. The image is taken from "The Life of Samuel Johnson, Vol. II" by James Boswell, published by Sir Isaac Pitman & Sons Ltd. in London in 1907. In this head and shoulders portrait, we catch a glimpse of Tyers' profile as he gazes off to the side with an air of confidence. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth to the photograph, emphasizing the timeless quality of this historical figure. Tyers' association with Dr. Samuel Johnson is significant; their friendship played a role in shaping literary circles during that era. This image serves as a reminder of their connection and provides insight into Tyers' character as both a socialite and writer. As we delve into British history through this photograph, it becomes evident that Thomas Tyers left an indelible mark on society through his flamboyant personality and contributions to literature. His story continues to captivate our imagination even today.
