Autorenporträt
Lewis Strange Wingfield was an Irish writer, painter, actor, and avid traveler known for his wide-ranging pursuits and creative output in the late 19th century. He was born on February 25, 1842, to Richard Wingfield, 6th Viscount Powerscourt, and Lady Elizabeth Jocelyn. Coming from an aristocratic background, he pursued unconventional paths for someone of his standing, developing a reputation for his theatrical roles and vivid travel accounts. His interest in performance extended into his writing, which often combined dramatic flair with historical insight. Wingfield painted and exhibited his work while also contributing as a correspondent and observer in places experiencing social and political change. His passion for travel led him to diverse locations, and these experiences frequently shaped the settings and atmosphere of his novels. He was known for exploring complex emotional and philosophical ideas through characters set against the backdrop of historical turbulence. Wingfield shared his life with Cecilia FitzPatrick from 1868 onward. He died in 1891 at the age of 49, having left behind a legacy of work that spanned the arts and reflected a curiosity for both the inner lives of people and the forces shaping their world.
