[Rev. Alex Duff.]
[n.d. c.1870.]
Stipple engraving. 225 x 150mm (9 x 6"), with large margins.
A head and shoulders portrait of Rev. Alexander Duff (1806-1878), right-gazing. Born in Scotland and after studying at the University of St. Andrew's, Duff spent much of his life as an evangelical Christian missionary in India, aiming to reform the education system and in turn convert (primarily middle class) Hindus to Christianity. Though his methods helped to advance healthcare in India, mainly by dispelling the prejudice of handling dead bodies, he achieved little in the way of religious conversion. He died and was buried in Sidmouth, Devon.
