EDITORS COMMENTS
This full-length portrait captures the distinguished figure of George Vertue (1684-1756), an English engraver and antiquary of great renown. Vertue's scholarly pursuits and artistic talents placed him at the heart of the intellectual and artistic circles of his time. He is depicted here in formal attire, wearing a voluminous robe and a high, powdered wig, which were the fashionable accoutrements of the day for men of learning and refinement. Vertue's career as an engraver began in the late 17th century, and he quickly established himself as a master of the art form. His meticulous attention to detail and his ability to capture the subtle nuances of his subjects' features made him a sought-after engraver for portraits of the rich and famous. However, Vertue's true passion lay in his role as an antiquary, a scholar of antiquities. He dedicated much of his time to the study of ancient coins, medals, and inscriptions, and his extensive knowledge in this area made him a valuable resource for collectors and historians. This portrait offers a glimpse into the life of a man who was not only a skilled artist but also a dedicated scholar and intellectual. Vertue's contributions to the fields of engraving and antiquarian studies continue to be celebrated and appreciated to this day, and this image serves as a fitting tribute to his enduring legacy.
