EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate Coat of Arms belonging to Lord Pigot, a prominent figure in 18th-century British history. George Pigot, the 1st Baron Pigot Bt, served as the esteemed governor of Madras in India during this era. The engraving features an empty scroll with no inscribed motto, symbolizing the enigmatic nature of Lord Pigot's life. Born in 1719 and passing away in 1777 while imprisoned in Madras, Lord Pigot never married and thus his barony became extinct upon his death. This historical artifact provides a glimpse into the fascinating life and lineage of this influential individual.
