Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print captures a scene from William M Thayer's book "How Benjamin Franklin The Printer Boy Made His Mark". In this particular episode, we witness Miss Read, who would later become Benjamin Franklin's wife, catching her first glimpse of her future husband. As she gazes upon him with curiosity and intrigue, little does she know that their paths will intertwine and they will embark on a remarkable journey together. Benjamin Franklin himself is portrayed as a young boy full of potential and ambition. This image serves as a reminder that even at such an early stage in his life, he possessed qualities that would shape him into one of history's greatest scientists and intellectuals. The engraving not only highlights the personal story between Miss Read and Benjamin Franklin but also symbolizes the power of destiny and how chance encounters can lead to extraordinary outcomes. It invites us to reflect on our own lives and consider those pivotal moments that have shaped our futures. Digitally cleaned for enhanced clarity, this print offers viewers an opportunity to delve into history while appreciating both its artistic value and its ability to capture timeless stories like that of Benjamin Franklin - tales which continue to inspire generations today.
