EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Francis Thynne, (Lancaster Herald)" transports us back to the 19th century. The image showcases a distinguished gentleman with an air of authority, identified as Francis Thynne. As Lancaster Herald, he held a prominent position within the English heraldry system. The fine details captured in this print allow us to appreciate the artistry involved in creating engravings during that era. Every line and curve is meticulously etched onto the paper, bringing forth Thynne's likeness with remarkable precision. This particular engraving was featured in "The Handbook to Autographs" by Frederick G Netherclift around 1880. It serves as an illustration accompanying Thynne's autograph and handwriting samples. Such publications were highly valued at the time for their insights into notable figures' lives and personalities. As we gaze upon this piece, we are reminded of the importance placed on penmanship and personal signatures during that period. Thynne's elegant script adds another layer of authenticity to his portrayal. Preserved within a private collection, this engraving offers us a glimpse into history through both its subject matter and artistic technique. It stands as a testament to the enduring fascination with individuals who have left their mark on society through their words and deeds.
