EDITORS COMMENTS
James I: The Union of the Crowns and the Emblem of Scotland (1625) This evocative image captures King James I of England and Scotland in a moment of historical significance, as he is depicted with two cupids assisting in the addition of the emblem of Scotland to the British arms. The painting, created in 1625 by the Dutch artist, Van der Werff, highlights the union of the English and Scottish crowns under one monarch. James I, dressed in rich robes and wearing a crown, sits confidently on a throne. To his left, a winged cupid holds the Scottish unicorn, a symbol of Scotland's power and independence, while to his right, a second cupid, without wings, adds the thistle emblem to the British coat of arms. This scene represents the peaceful union of the two nations, which came about following the death of Queen Elizabeth I of England in 1603 and the succession of James I to both the English and Scottish thrones. The year 1566 is inscribed at the bottom of the painting, which may refer to the date of James I's accession to the Scottish throne. However, it is important to note that the painting itself was created in 1625, during James I's reign in England. The historical significance of this image lies in its representation of the union of the two crowns, a pivotal moment in the history of England and Scotland. The use of cupids as assistants adds a whimsical touch to the painting, emphasizing the peaceful and harmonious nature of the union. Van der Werff's masterful brushstrokes and attention to detail bring this historical scene to life, making it an intriguing and captivating work of art.
