EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored engraving, titled 'William Villiers, Viscount Grandison (1614-1643)' is an intriguing glimpse into the opulent world of the English aristocracy during the reign of Charles I. The image, drawn by Charles Martin and etched by Leopold Martin, is part of the comprehensive collection 'Civil Costume of England from the Conquest to the Present Period,' published in London by Henry Bohn in 1842. The Martins, father and sons, were renowned artists and engravers of their time. John Martin, the patriarch, was a celebrated romantic artist and mezzotint engraver. His sons, Charles and Leopold, continued the family legacy by meticulously creating this exquisite collection of costumes. The costumes in this engraving were not drawn from contemporary sources but rather from tapestries, monumental effigies, illuminated manuscripts, and portraits. The result is a vivid and authentic representation of the fashion and style of the period. In this particular image, we see William Villiers, Viscount Grandison, dressed in the elaborate attire of the early 17th century. The viscount's richly embroidered doublet, breeches, and cloak are adorned with intricate patterns and designs, reflecting the wealth and status of the wearer. The viscount's ruff, a fashionable collar worn around the neck, is also intricately detailed, adding to the overall grandeur of the image. This engraving is a testament to the Martins' artistic skill and their dedication to preserving the history of English costume. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the elegance and extravagance of the English aristocracy during the reign of Charles I.
