EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the regal presence of King George I, the first monarch of the House of Hanover. Painted by renowned artist Godfrey Kneller, this oil on canvas print showcases the king in all his glory. King George I, also known as Georg Ludwig, ascended to the British throne in 1714 after the death of Queen Anne. As a Protestant ruler and Annes closest living relative, he was chosen to uphold the Act of Settlement 1701 which prohibited Catholics from inheriting the British throne. Born in Hanover, Germany, George was not only a ruler but also held titles such as prince-elector of Hanover and ruler of the Duchy of Brunswick-Luneburg. His lineage can be traced back to James I through his great-grandson. In this portrait, King George I is depicted wearing a majestic crown adorned with ermine fur and holding an orb symbolizing his power and authority. The attention to detail in capturing his likeness is remarkable; every brushstroke brings out his strong features and commanding presence. This historic image serves as a testament to King George's reign during a crucial period in British history when political alliances were shifting and new dynasties were established. It stands as a reminder of one man's journey from Germany to become an influential figure on England's throne.
