EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking handcolored engraving depicts James, Marquis of Hamilton, an influential Scottish nobleman during the reign of King James I of England (1566-1625). The image, drawn by Charles Martin and etched by Leopold Martin, is taken from 'Civil Costume of England from the Conquest to the Present Period,' published in London by Henry Bohn in 1842. The Martins, renowned for their artistic talents, created this illustration based on various sources, including tapestries, monumental effigies, illuminated manuscripts, and portraits. James Hamilton, the 1st Earl of Arran and 2nd Marquess of Hamilton, was born in 1589. He rose to power during the minority of King James I, serving as the regent of Scotland from 1603 to 1606. Hamilton's tenure as regent was marked by political instability and conflict, including the 'Hamilton-Gordon Feud' with the Earl of Huntly. In this illustration, James, Marquis of Hamilton, is depicted wearing the fashionable attire of the late 16th century. He wears a doublet, a close-fitting jacket with a high standing collar, and a long, flowing cloak. The intricate design on his doublet and the rich colors of his garments reflect the opulence and grandeur of the era. The Marquis's elaborate ruff, a fashionable accessory worn around the neck, adds to his regal appearance. This illustration offers a glimpse into the fashion and history of the late 16th century, providing valuable insights into the lives of the powerful figures who shaped the political landscape of England and Scotland during the reign of King James I.
