EDITORS COMMENTS
This mezzotint print of Benjamin Franklin, created by Max Rosenthal in 1901, offers a glimpse into the life and work of one of America's most influential figures. The image portrays Franklin seated at his desk, holding the tip of a pointed lightning rod while another with a round knob rests on the table before him. This detail alludes to his preference for the pointed rod, which was favored over the rounded version by King George III. The print also includes an excerpt from Franklin's book, "Experiments and Observations on Electricity" copied onto the paper beside his inkwell. This passage highlights his expertise in understanding lightning rods and their role in protecting structures from lightning strikes. Franklin himself is depicted as a distinguished man wearing glasses, surrounded by various objects such as pots and feathers that hint at his wide-ranging interests and accomplishments. Through this artwork, we catch a glimpse of both Franklin's scientific pursuits and his significant contributions to American history as an inventor, scientist, writer, and signatory of the Declaration of Independence. With its rich colors and attention to detail, this mezzotint print captures not only Franklin's likeness but also evokes the spirit of intellectual curiosity that defined him during the 18th century. It serves as a testament to both his enduring legacy and our fascination with this remarkable figure who played such a pivotal role in shaping early America.
