EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures Augustus Henry Morgan in all his naval glory. Dressed in a striking blue naval coat, he stands proudly next to a cannon aimed out towards the vast expanse of the sea. The year is 1815, and Morgan's commanding presence reflects the confidence and strength of a seasoned sailor. John Cox Dillman Engleheart skillfully immortalizes this moment on ivory, showcasing his mastery as an artist. The small print measures 8.7 x 6.8 cm, yet it manages to convey every intricate detail of Morgan's attire and expression. The composition evokes a sense of adventure and maritime power. As we gaze at this image, we can almost hear the crashing waves and feel the salty breeze against our faces. It transports us back to an era when seafaring was both treacherous and awe-inspiring. Augustus Henry Morgan himself remains somewhat enigmatic; there is much left for us to discover about his life beyond this snapshot frozen in time. However, through Engleheart's artistry, we catch a glimpse into his world – one filled with duty, honor, and perhaps even longing for distant shores. This print from Fine Art Finder offers us not only a window into history but also an opportunity to appreciate the talent behind its creation. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece that speaks volumes about both the subject matter and the artistic prowess of John Cox Dillman Engleheart
