Howard's political acumen and diplomatic skills were showcased during his tenure as Lord Privy Seal and Lord Chamberlain. In these roles, he played a pivotal part in shaping England's domestic and foreign policies. As an ambassador, Howard represented the interests of the English crown in Europe, most notably in France and the Netherlands. His diplomatic missions were marked by their success, securing vital alliances and advancing Anglo-European relations. Beyond politics, Howard was a generous benefactor, supporting various charitable causes and patronizing the arts. He played a crucial role in the restoration of the Palace of Arundel, transforming it into a cultural center that attracted scholars, artists, and intellectuals. This portrait, created during the late 17th century, offers a glimpse into the life of a man who left an indelible mark on English history.
