EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases James Hamilton, the 6th Earl of Abercorn, in all his aristocratic glory. Created by Edward Harding in 1800, this portrait captures the essence of a man who held significant political influence during the 17th and 18th centuries. James Hamilton was not only a Scottish and Irish peer but also served as groom of the bedchamber to King Charles II. His political career saw him sitting in both the Irish House of Lords (as Viscount Strabane) and the Parliament of Scotland (as Earl of Abercorn). In recognition of his contributions, he was appointed to the Privy Council of Ireland. The artist skillfully portrays Hamilton's regal stature with meticulous attention to detail. The monochrome palette adds an air of timelessness to this image, allowing us to glimpse into history and witness a prominent figure from another era. This print is based on an original picture that once belonged to the Marquis of Aberdeen. It serves as a testament to Hamilton's significance within British politics and society during his time. As we gaze upon this engraving today, we are reminded not only of his noble lineage but also his statesmanship and dedication towards serving his country.
