EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases Stephen Martin Leake, a prominent figure in the 18th century. Painted by Robert Edge Pine in 1755, this oil on canvas masterpiece captures Leake's dignified presence and intellectual prowess. With his distinguished grey hair and Garter principal attire, it is evident that he held an esteemed position as the Garter King of Arms. Leake's expertise extended beyond heraldry; he was also a renowned numismatist or coin expert. This aspect of his life is subtly hinted at through the inclusion of coins in the composition. The artist skillfully portrays Leake's passion for numismatics while maintaining focus on his regal persona. The Georgian era costume worn by Leake further emphasizes the historical context of this portrait print. His frock coat adds an elegant touch to his overall appearance, symbolizing both sophistication and authority. Displayed proudly within the College of Arms, this painting serves as a testament to Leake's significant contributions to society during his lifetime. As we admire this remarkable artwork today, we are reminded not only of its artistic excellence but also of the rich history behind it.
