Clemens Half Length Pool Samuel
EDITORS COMMENTS
This half-length portrait captures the renowned American author Samuel Clemens, better known by his pen name Mark Twain, in a casual moment at the end of a pool table. The photograph, taken around January 11, 1908, reveals Twain's character and charisma as he stands with his hands in his pockets, a thoughtful expression gracing his face. The pool table, a popular pastime during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, provides a fitting backdrop for this image, emphasizing Twain's connection to the common man. Mark Twain, born in Florida, Missouri, in 1835, was a prolific writer whose works include "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer," "Adventures of Huckleberry Finn," and "The Adventures of Mark Twain." His novels, short stories, and essays have left an indelible mark on American literature, exploring themes of adventure, humor, and the human condition. Despite his literary accomplishments, this photograph offers a glimpse into Twain's personal life, revealing a man who, like many others, enjoyed the simple pleasures of a game of pool. The image serves as a testament to Twain's enduring appeal and his ability to connect with people from all walks of life.
