EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases the distinguished figure of Charles Howard, Earl of Nottingham. Created by the talented artist Jacobus Houbraken in 1742, this engraving is a remarkable representation of one of Great Britain's most illustrious personalities. Charles Howard, also known as the 2nd Baron Howard of Effingham, was a man of many titles and accomplishments. As Lord High Admiral and Lord Chamberlain during the Elizabethan era, he played a crucial role in defending England against the formidable Spanish Armada. His unwavering commitment to his country earned him great respect and admiration. In this oval-shaped depiction, we see Charles Howard portrayed with utmost elegance and sophistication. The half-length composition captures his commanding presence as a courtier and politician. Adorned with the prestigious Order of the Garter insignia, he exudes an air of authority befitting his position as Privy Councillor. With meticulous attention to detail, Houbraken skillfully brings out every nuance in Charles Howard's countenance - from his piercing gaze to his regal attire. This portrait not only immortalizes an influential naval commander but also serves as a window into both Elizabethan and Jacobean eras. As part of The Stapleton Collection housed within a private collection today, this exquisite print offers us an opportunity to delve into history while appreciating fine art at its finest.
