EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite illustration of Robert Browning's timeless poem, Rabbi Ben Ezra. Created by the talented artist Bernard Partridge in 1916, this piece beautifully captures the essence of Browning's profound words. In this thought-provoking image, we see a group of individuals gathered outside at night, their figures illuminated by a mysterious red glow. Among them is a wise old rabbi dressed in traditional attire, pointing towards the heavens as if guiding his followers towards spiritual enlightenment. Partridge skillfully portrays both men and women from various walks of life, united in their quest for religious discovery. The intricate details on their clothing reflect the fashion trends of early 20th century England. A winged figure resembling Mercury hovers above them all, symbolizing divine intervention and guidance. This celestial presence adds an ethereal touch to the scene while emphasizing the poem's exploration of faith and spirituality. The use of contrasting light and shadow creates a dramatic atmosphere that enhances the overall impact of this illustration. It transports viewers back to a time when poetry was revered as one of humanity's greatest artistic expressions. This rare find from The Connoisseur magazine serves as a testament to both Robert Browning's literary genius and Bernard Partridge's exceptional talent as an illustrator. A true collector's item for enthusiasts interested in exploring artistry inspired by classic literature.
