Aldous Huxley Portrait Print

Aldous Huxley NPG P714

by Howard Coster

Coster portrayed the writer Huxley just two years after the publication of his most famous work, the dystopian novel Brave New World. Stricken with a serious eye disease as a child, Huxley had impaired vision and wore thick corrective lenses. Here the photographer has used Huxley’s glasses to partially conceal his eyes, suggesting a deep inner vision while at the same time revealing the extent of his weakened sight, which improved in later life.
