EDITORS COMMENTS
George Clifford, Earl of Cumberland: A Portrait of Power and Nobility from the Elizabethan and Jacobean Eras This evocative black and white print, titled 'George Clifford, Earl of Cumberland; Obit 1605,' was created by the renowned English engraver, Charles Turner, in 1811. The print is part of the extensive 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 by Samuel Woodburn in 1815. The portrait showcases George Clifford, the 3rd Earl of Cumberland, who lived during the late 16th and early 17th centuries. Clifford was a prominent figure in British history, serving as a commander in the Royal Navy and playing a significant role in naval warfare during the Tudor and Jacobean periods. He was also a courtier and a member of the English nobility. Clifford's appearance in the print is striking, with his elaborate Elizabethan-era attire, featuring voluminous sleeves, a ruff collar, and a high-waisted doublet. The intricate detailing of the clothing, from the embroidery to the textures, highlights the opulence and grandeur of the aristocracy during this time. The print also captures the intensity and regality of Clifford's expression, emphasizing his status as a powerful and influential figure. The background of the print is simple yet effective, with a plain, dark backdrop that allows the focus to remain on Clifford himself. The overall effect is one of timeless elegance and historical significance, making this print an essential addition to any collection of British portraits or studies of Elizabethan and Jacobean fashion.
