Endymion Porter, attended Prince Charles in Spain, 1810
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating black and white engraving by the renowned English engraver, Richard Earlom. The image is taken from the collection "Portraits of characters illustrious in British History from the beginning of the reign of Henry the Eighth to the end of the reign of James the Second," published in London in 1815 by Samuel Woodburn. The portrait depicts Endymion Porter, an English diplomat who served as a commissary to Prince Charles during his exile in Spain between 1715 and 1718. Porter was a crucial figure in the Stuart cause during the War of the Spanish Succession, and his attendance to the future King of England played a significant role in the political landscape of the time. In the portrait, Porter is depicted wearing the fashionable attire of the 17th century. He is dressed in a high-collared coat, a waistcoat, and breeches, all in black and white. The intricate details of his clothing are expertly captured by Earlom's skillful engraving technique, showcasing the elegance and sophistication of the era. The portrait also reveals the political climate of the time, with Porter's presence in Spain representing the English support for the Stuart cause. The location is not explicitly stated, but the image conveys a sense of grandeur and importance, fitting for a man of Porter's stature. Endymion Porter's portrait is a valuable historical document, providing insight into the fashion, politics, and diplomacy of the 17th century. Earlom's masterful engraving technique brings the portrait to life, allowing us to connect with the past and appreciate the rich history of Britain.
