Algernon Charles Swinburne NPG 3611

© National Portrait Gallery, London

by Harry Furniss

Harry Furniss published this pen and ink portrait in his book Some Victorian Men (1924), depicting an elderly Swinburne, dishevelled and exasperated, perhaps as a result of the vast amount of work he produced in later life. In the short biography that accompanied the portrait Furniss described Swinburne as 'certainly the most brilliant genius as a poet England has ever seen.'
