EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving depicts John Somers, 1st Baron Somers, an influential English Whig jurist and statesman of the late 17th century. The portrait showcases Lord Somers in a half-length pose, radiating authority and intellect. As one of the key figures behind the Union of 1707, his political prowess is evident in every line etched on this print. Lord Somers served as Lord High Chancellor of England under King William III, leaving an indelible mark on British history. His dedication to justice and legal reform earned him great respect among his contemporaries and future generations alike. This engraving serves as a testament to his significant contributions to society. The artist has masterfully captured Lord Somers' distinguished appearance - from his meticulously styled wig that was fashionable during that era to his refined attire befitting a man of high stature. The attention to detail in this portrait allows us to glimpse into the past and appreciate the fashion trends prevalent in early 18th-century England. As we admire this remarkable piece from The Stapleton Collection, it reminds us not only of Lord Somers' remarkable achievements but also highlights the importance of individuals who shape nations through their unwavering commitment to progress and unity.
