EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable marble portrait of the esteemed William Roscoe, created by the talented British sculptor John Gibson in 1819. The intricate details and exquisite craftsmanship are evident as you observe the scratched inscription "ROSCOE" on the front of the base, while on its proper right side, another intriguing marking reads "ROMA" alluding to its origin in Italy's eternal city. The bust itself bears Gibson's signature and date of completion - "I GIBSON Ft. 1819" - adding an air of authenticity to this magnificent piece. As one gazes upon this herm-like representation of Roscoe, it becomes apparent that every contour has been meticulously carved to capture his likeness with astonishing precision. William Roscoe was a notable figure during the 19th century, renowned for his contributions as an author, lawyer, abolitionist, and historian. This portrait immortalizes his dignified presence and intellectual prowess through its lifelike depiction. Displayed against a backdrop reminiscent of Conwy's picturesque scenery, this print allows us to appreciate both the artistry behind Gibson's creation and Roscoe's significant impact on society. It serves as a testament to their enduring legacy and reminds us of their invaluable contributions to British history
