Edward Bulwer-Lytton 1803-73 is a portrait created by the renowned Irish painter Daniel Maclise. Maclise, celebrated for his historical and literary subjects, was a prominent figure in the 19th-century British art scene. This particular work captures the likeness of Edward Bulwer-Lytton, a distinguished English novelist, poet, playwright, and politician, who was one of the most popular and influential literary figures of his time.

Bulwer-Lytton, born in 1803, was a prolific writer whose works spanned various genres, including historical fiction, mystery, romance, and science fiction. He is perhaps best known for coining the phrase "the pen is mightier than the sword" and for his novel "The Last Days of Pompeii." His literary contributions were significant in shaping the Victorian literary landscape, and his works enjoyed widespread readership and acclaim.

Maclise's portrait of Bulwer-Lytton is notable for its meticulous attention to detail and its ability to convey the intellectual vigor and charismatic presence of the subject. The painting reflects Maclise's skill in capturing not just the physical likeness but also the personality and essence of the sitter. The portrait likely dates from the mid-19th century, a period when both Maclise and Bulwer-Lytton were at the height of their respective careers.

The artwork is a testament to the mutual respect and admiration between the artist and the writer, as both were leading figures in their fields. Maclise's ability to render such a lifelike and dynamic image of Bulwer-Lytton speaks to his mastery of portraiture and his deep understanding of his subjects.
