Thomas Hearne M.A. of Edmund Hall Oxon.
Obit 10 Junii. 1735. Ætat. 57.
Vertue Soul
Thomas Hearne, the famous Oxford Antiquary, or historian, is depicted in this woodcut or engraving as a portly gentleman, with shelves of books behind him. The titles of some of the books are visible and possibly have some significance although I couldn’t really make sense of them.
