EDITORS COMMENTS
The Apotheosis of the Duke of Buckingham, c1900, (1936) captures the grandeur and power of George Villiers, the 1st Duke of Buckingham. In this side view portrait print, we see a black-clad male figure on horseback surrounded by a majestic array of animals and mythical figures. Villiers was an influential favorite of both James I and Charles I, holding immense political sway during their reigns. This image showcases his elevated status as he is depicted in regal attire with a flowing cape. The artist behind this masterpiece is none other than Peter Paul Rubens, renowned for his ability to capture dramatic scenes with remarkable detail. The composition exudes religious symbolism with references to various deities such as Minerva and Mercury. A sense of divine glory surrounds Villiers as he ascends towards god-like status. The print's publication in The Connoisseur magazine in 1936 further solidifies its significance within art history. This piece transports us back to the early 17th century when Buckingham's influence reached its zenith. It serves as a testament to his role in shaping England's political landscape during a tumultuous period marked by conflicts between crown and parliament. As we gaze upon this stunning portrayal, we are reminded not only of Villiers' extraordinary rise to power but also the artistic brilliance that immortalized him through Rubens' brushstrokes.
