EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures Thomas Howard, the 14th Earl of Arundel, a prominent figure in English history during the reigns of King James I and King Charles I. Known for his love for art and culture, he was renowned as both a Grand Tourist and an art collector. In this engraving by Robert Dunkarton, we see Howard depicted with great detail and precision. The mezzotint technique used brings out the intricate features of his face and attire. The portrait is based on an original painting by Richard Earlom and Charles Turner from their series "Portraits of Characters Illustrious in British History Engraved in Mezzotinto". Published in London in 1815 by S. Woodburn, this print showcases Howard's significance as a cultural connoisseur during his time. It serves as a testament to his passion for collecting art from various parts of Europe during his Grand Tour. This image offers us a glimpse into the life of one of England's most influential figures from the 16th century. It reminds us not only of Howard's personal taste but also highlights the importance placed on art collection as a symbol of wealth, power, and cultural refinement during that era. As we admire this print today, we can appreciate how it connects us to history while also reminding us that art has always played an essential role in shaping society across centuries.
