EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking portrait captures Edward Somerset, the fourth Earl of Worcester, in the prime of his political career as a prominent statesman and Master of the Horse during the reigns of King James I and Charles I in the early 17th century. The image, dated 1628, showcases the Earl's regal presence and sophisticated attire, with a red velvet doublet adorned with gold lace and a black velvet hat trimmed with ermine. The autograph inscription below the portrait, penned by the Earl himself, adds an intriguing personal touch to the historical document. Born in 1553, Edward Somerset was a descendant of the powerful and influential House of Worcester. He began his political career under Queen Elizabeth I, serving as a Member of Parliament and later becoming a Privy Councillor under King James I in 1603. In 1614, he was appointed Master of the Horse, a position that placed him at the heart of the royal court and granted him significant influence over the king's daily life. As Master of the Horse, Worcester played a crucial role in the political intrigues and power struggles of the early Stuart court. He was a key figure in the intrigue surrounding the Duke of Buckingham, who was eventually impeached and executed in 1628. Despite his involvement in the political turmoil, Worcester managed to maintain his position and influence, continuing to serve as Master of the Horse until his death in 1630. This portrait offers a glimpse into the life of a prominent and influential figure in early modern English history, providing a valuable insight into the political landscape of the time and the role of the nobility in shaping the course of events. The autograph inscription adds a personal touch to the historical record, making this an invaluable resource for scholars and enthusiasts of English history.
