EDITORS COMMENTS
This self-portrait was taken by Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, better known by his pen name Lewis Carroll, around the year 1860. The photograph, a rare and intriguing glimpse into the life of this enigmatic figure, is currently held in a private collection. Dodgson, a renowned English writer, mathematician, and photographer, is most famous for his literary works, including "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and "Through the Looking Glass." In this self-portrait, Dodgson gazes directly at the camera with a serious and thoughtful expression, his piercing eyes seemingly introspective. His attire, consisting of a high-collared shirt and a bow tie, is typical of the formal dress code of the Victorian era. The photograph, an albumen print, showcases Dodgson's keen sense of composition and technical skill as a photographer. The soft focus and subtle tonalities create an ethereal quality, adding to the intrigue and allure of this image. Carroll's interest in photography began in the late 1850s, and he went on to produce a substantial body of work, including portraits, landscapes, and studies of flowers. This self-portrait, however, remains one of the most intriguing and personal images in his oeuvre, offering a rare glimpse into the mind of this extraordinary individual. The photograph serves as a testament to Dodgson's multifaceted talents and his enduring impact on literature and art history.
