1882 Cable Cole Timothy Washington Writer
EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving from 1882 depicts the renowned American writer, George Washington Cable. Known for his influential literary works, Cable's contribution to American literature is immortalized in this exquisite print by Timothy Cole. The artist skillfully captures Cable's distinguished appearance with a meticulously engraved depiction of his bearded face and well-groomed mustache. Cable, born in 1844 and passing away in 1925, was an iconic figure of his time. His writings explored themes of race relations and social injustices prevalent during the post-Civil War era. As one of the first white Southern authors to address these issues openly, he played a significant role in shaping public opinion on racial equality. In this portrait-like engraving, Cole masterfully brings out the depth and character of Cable's persona through intricate details etched into the woodblock. Every line seems to tell a story about this remarkable man who fearlessly used his pen as a weapon against discrimination. The Granger Collection has once again curated an exceptional piece that not only showcases artistic talent but also pays homage to an important figure in American history. This print serves as a reminder of George Washington Cable's enduring legacy as both a writer and advocate for social change—a testament to the power of words and their ability to shape society for generations to come.
