EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back in time to the year 1631, where we encounter a young John Dryden. Known as one of England's most celebrated literary figures, Dryden's portrait exudes an air of intellect and creativity that is synonymous with his name. As our eyes meet his gaze, it becomes evident why he was bestowed with the prestigious title of Poet Laureate. His piercing eyes reflect a depth of knowledge and insight into the world around him. With each stroke of Ken Welsh's brush, Dryden's essence comes alive on this canvas. Beyond being a poet and playwright, Dryden also earned recognition as a renowned critic and translator. His contributions to English literature were unparalleled during his time and continue to inspire generations today. The nickname "Town Bayes" adds an element of intrigue to this portrait. It alludes to Dryden's involvement in satirical plays known as "bayesian drama" which often poked fun at societal norms and conventions. Ken Welsh skillfully captures both the physical likeness and intangible qualities that made John Dryden such an influential figure in English literature. This print serves as a reminder of his enduring legacy and invites us to delve into the rich tapestry of words woven by this remarkable poet laureate.
