EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the striking portrait of Charles Stuart (1639-72), the 3rd Duke of Richmond, captured between 1665 and 1670 by Samuel Cooper. Measuring just 7x5.7 cm, this miniature bodycolour on paper piece is housed in the esteemed Yale Center for British Art's Paul Mellon Collection in the USA. Charles Stuart, also known as the 6th Duke of Lennox and cousin to King Charles II (1630-85), exudes an air of aristocratic elegance in this exquisite oval-shaped pendant. Adorned with a delicate lace collar, he epitomizes the cavalier spirit that defined his era. Cooper's meticulous attention to detail brings out every nuance of Stuart's features, capturing his regal poise and confident gaze. The artist expertly portrays both the grandeur and vulnerability inherent in being part of England's Jacobean nobility. As we delve into history through this remarkable image, we are transported back to a time when Stewart dynasty held sway over Britain. This print serves as a testament to their enduring legacy and offers us a glimpse into an age characterized by opulence and refinement. Through Bridgeman Images' lens, we can appreciate not only Cooper's artistic prowess but also marvel at how such a small-scale artwork can encapsulate so much power and prestige within its frame.
