EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "James VI of Scotland" takes us back to the early 17th century when James VI ruled over Scotland and later became King James I of England and Ireland. The print, published by H. Jacopsen in 1618, showcases the regal presence of this influential monarch. In this portrait, created by John de Critz after an original painting, we see James VI depicted with great attention to detail. He is portrayed wearing a magnificent oval frame adorned with intricate inscriptions that symbolize his authority and power. A stylish hat embellished with a rosette sits atop his head, adding elegance to his appearance. The king's attire further emphasizes his royal status; he dons a luxurious cloak draped over one shoulder while sporting an elaborate collar around his neck. His confident gaze captures both strength and wisdom as he gazes out from the print. This remarkable artwork not only immortalizes James VI but also serves as a testament to the union between England and Scotland during his reign. It reminds us of the significant historical event that occurred on March 24,1603 when these two nations came together under one crown. Displayed in private collection today, this engraving allows us to appreciate the grandeur of James VI's rule and offers a glimpse into an era where monarchy reigned supreme across multiple kingdoms.
