EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases two remarkable portraits by Nicholas Hilliard, a renowned English artist of the Tudor era. On the left, we see Richard Hilliard, the artist's father, captured in exquisite detail around 1577. Richard was not only a beloved family member but also an accomplished goldsmith from Exeter. The portrait reveals Richard's dignified presence as he gazes directly at the viewer with an air of confidence and wisdom. His fur-trimmed attire and well-groomed beard reflect his status and refinement during this period. On the right side of the image is Nicholas Hilliard's self-portrait from 1577. This watercolor on vellum laid onto card captures both his artistic talent and personal identity. The intricate details of his ruff collar and expressive eyes reveal a man deeply connected to his craft. Displayed at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, these masterpieces offer us a glimpse into Elizabethan England through their meticulous execution and historical significance. As we admire these miniatures side by side, it becomes evident that artistry runs deep within this talented family lineage. Bridgeman Images has skillfully preserved this extraordinary moment in time for all to appreciate - reminding us of our rich cultural heritage while celebrating the enduring legacy of Nicholas Hilliard's artistic brilliance.
