EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Portrait of Abraham Darssie" takes us back to the 17th century. The portrait showcases a half-length depiction of Abraham Darssie, an esteemed translator of his time. With intricate details and delicate lines, this print is a true testament to the skillful craftsmanship of the English School. Abraham Darssie stands confidently in his elaborate ruffs, which were fashionable during that era. His clothing reflects the trends and styles prevalent at the time, offering us a glimpse into the fashion choices of this period. The artist William Camden beautifully captures Darssie's essence, while Francis Delaram expertly translates it onto paper through his engravings. Originally published as a tailpiece for P de Belligerents French version of Camdens Elizabeth in 1625, this engraving has now found its place in private collections worldwide.
