EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Life of Buckingham" by Augustus Leopold Egg, a renowned English artist from the 19th century. Painted between 1853 and 1855, this oil on canvas masterpiece is part of a pair that can be found at the Yale Center for British Art in the Paul Mellon Collection. The focal point of this artwork is George Villiers, the 2nd Duke of Buckingham (1627-87), who was known for his close relationship with Charles II. The painting captures an extravagant banquet scene where Buckingham revels in his decadent lifestyle as a courtier. Surrounded by rowdy companions, he indulges in food and drink while displaying his opulent wig adorned with ringlets. Egg skillfully portrays both the vanity and excesses of the era through intricate details such as lavish interior decorations and moonlit ambiance. This snapshot into 17th-century life depicts a time when extravagance reigned supreme within royal circles. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to an age filled with grandeur and luxury but also marked by moral decay. It serves as a reminder that even those closest to power were not immune to its corrupting influence.
