EDITORS COMMENTS
This full-length portrait of Alexander Meyrick Broadley, taken in the late 19th century, showcases the distinguished lawyer, writer, and collector in the prime of his life. Broadley, born in 1847, was a man of many talents and passions. He made a name for himself as a respected legal professional, but his true love lay in the realm of history, particularly the Napoleonic era. Broadley's devotion to Napoleon and his time is evident in his extensive collection of Napoleonic memorabilia. The portrait captures him in the elegant attire of the era, complete with a top hat and a thoughtful expression. The artist has masterfully rendered the intricate details of Broadley's attire, from the crisp pleats of his shirt to the subtle textures of his waistcoat and coat. Broadley's hands, resting on a table adorned with books and historical artifacts, further emphasize his scholarly pursuits. The portrait exudes an air of sophistication and intellectual curiosity, making it a fascinating glimpse into the life of a man who lived and breathed history. This portrait, published in Vanity Fair, is a testament to Broadley's enduring legacy as a scholar, a lawyer, and a passionate collector. The image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when history was a deeply personal pursuit and the study of the past was a labor of love.
