EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the distinguished figure of John Ker, 3rd Duke of Roxburghe, engraved by E. C. Wagstaff and sourced from the prestigious National Portrait Gallery. The image captures the essence of aristocracy in the 18th century Georgian era, depicting a male portrait standing with an air of elegance and refinement. John Ker, also known as Marquis of Cessford and Beaumont, Earl Ker of Wakefield, was not only a prominent member of high society but also a passionate book collector. His love for literature is palpable in this portrait as he holds a book in his gloved hand, symbolizing his intellectual pursuits and scholarly interests. The lithograph itself is a testament to artistic skill and attention to detail. Every line etched by William Hamilton brings out the duke's regal features while capturing his dignified presence. This remarkable piece serves as both an exquisite work of art and a historical artifact that offers us insight into the life and times of one influential nobleman. Displayed here within this private collection, this print allows us to appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its cultural significance. It reminds us that art has the power to transcend time, preserving moments from history for generations to come.
