EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the regal and dignified figure of John of Lancaster, Duke of Bedford (1389-1435). The image is a faithful reproduction of an original portrait found in a prayerbook, meticulously engraved by the talented artist George Vertue (1684-1756). John of Lancaster, known for his role as regent during the early 15th century, exudes power and authority in this profile depiction. His coat of arms proudly displayed on his attire symbolizes his noble lineage and connection to royalty. As one gazes upon this print, it becomes evident that John's presence commands respect and admiration. The attention to detail captured by Vertue allows us to appreciate every aspect of John's appearance. From his neatly styled hair with a distinctive tonsure to his piercing gaze that reflects wisdom beyond his years, each element contributes to the overall grandeur emanating from this portrait. As we delve into British history through this remarkable artwork, we are reminded of England's Lancastrian era and its significant impact on the nation. This print serves as a visual testament to the rich heritage and royal legacy that shaped Great Britain. Displayed within The Stapleton Collection at a private collection, this image offers viewers an opportunity to connect with English history while marveling at the artistic skill employed by both Vertue and Bridgeman Images in preserving such historical treasures for future generations.
