Simeon Solomon by David Wilkie Wynfield is a notable photographic portrait that captures the essence of the Pre-Raphaelite artist Simeon Solomon. Wynfield, an accomplished photographer and painter, was known for his evocative portraits of artists, writers, and other prominent figures of the Victorian era. This particular photograph is part of a larger collection of portraits Wynfield produced, which were characterized by their soft focus and dramatic lighting, reminiscent of the old master paintings that he admired.

Simeon Solomon, the subject of the portrait, was a significant figure in the Pre-Raphaelite movement, known for his evocative and often controversial works that explored themes of mythology, religion, and homoeroticism. Born in 1840, Solomon was a contemporary of Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Edward Burne-Jones, and other leading artists of the time. His work was celebrated for its delicate beauty and emotional depth, although his career was marred by scandal and personal struggles.

Wynfield's portrait of Solomon is a striking example of his photographic style, which sought to elevate the medium of photography to the level of fine art. The image captures Solomon in a contemplative pose, with a thoughtful expression that hints at his complex inner life. The use of soft focus and chiaroscuro lighting creates a timeless, almost ethereal quality, emphasizing Solomon's delicate features and the introspective nature of his gaze.

This portrait not only serves as a visual record of one of the Pre-Raphaelite movement's key figures but also reflects Wynfield's innovative approach to photography. By drawing inspiration from the techniques of classical painting, Wynfield was able to create images that were both artistically sophisticated and deeply expressive. The photograph of Simeon Solomon stands as a testament to the enduring impact of both the artist and the photographer within the broader context of 19th-century art and culture.
