This black-and-white print shows a man sitting in a chair, dressed in a high-collared coat with buttons down the front. His hands rest on his chin, and he has a thoughtful expression. The background is plain and dark, keeping all focus on his face. The print is labeled as *"The Author of The Pleasures of Memory"*—meaning this man was a poet. The artist’s name, Henry Meyer, is signed at the bottom. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see this print in person.
