Edwin Waugh
George Chandler Perkins 13 July 1849 - 29 Oct 1897
Summary
This print is a portrait study of Lancashire poet Edwin Waugh (1817-1890) in his prime old age, probably made from a photograph taken by Manchester photographer Warwick Brookes. His head and upper shoulders are shown facing the viewer, and he looks to the left, at a three quarter angle. His collars and a loosely-knotted necktie are shown. Fine hatching has been used to create subtle modulations in light and shade
