EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the thoughtful and introspective gaze of Keble Howard, also known as John Keble Bell (1875-1928). As the third son of the Reverend G.E. Bell, Howard's literary talents were nurtured from an early age. He began his journalistic career at The Sketch magazine in 1899, eventually becoming its Assistant Editor in 1899 and serving as its Editor from 1902 to 1904. Howard's literary contributions extended beyond journalism, with a prolific body of work that included numerous novels and plays. Some of his most notable works are "Compromising Martha," "The Smiths of Surbiton," "Dropping the Pilot," and "The Test Kiss." Among his plays was "Lord Babs," a farce penned in 1925. To Sketch readers, Howard was best known for his column "Motley Notes," which first appeared in 1899 and continued without interruption until just before his untimely death in 1928. This photograph, taken in 1928, captures Howard in deep thought, perhaps contemplating his next literary creation. The image serves as a poignant reminder of a remarkable writer, journalist, and playwright whose work continues to resonate with readers and audiences today.
