EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "James I, 1787" showcases the regal and dignified portrait of James VI and I. Created by Flemish artist Paul van Somer in the early 17th century, this print is a testament to his exceptional craftsmanship. James VI and I was a significant figure in British history, reigning as King of Scotland from 1567 and later becoming King of England and Ireland upon the union of the Scottish and English crowns in 1603. His reign marked the beginning of the Jacobean era, a time characterized by cultural flourishing and political intrigue. In this oval-shaped artwork, James I is depicted with an air of authority befitting his royal status. The intricate details captured by van Somer showcase not only his skill but also highlight James' distinctive ruff collar that was fashionable during that period. Displayed within the Rare Book Department at Free Library of Philadelphia, this engraving offers viewers a glimpse into an important chapter in British monarchy. It serves as a reminder of James I's influential role during this transformative period in history. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece through their Fine Art Finder collection for all art enthusiasts to appreciate its historical significance. As we admire this print today, it allows us to reflect on the legacy left behind by one of Britain's notable monarchs.
