EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a portrait of Sir Robert Walpole, Earl of Orford, an influential English statesman. Painted by Charles Jervas in 1725, this engraving was commissioned by Walpole himself as a gift for one of his supporters. The image depicts him standing proudly beside the Chancellor of the Exchequer's Seal, symbolizing his position as Chancellor of the Exchequer during that time. Walpole (1676-1745) is widely regarded as Britain's first Prime Minister, although he never held that official title during his tenure. His administration lasted from 1721 until his resignation in 1742, making it longer than any other Prime Minister since then. In this portrait, Walpole exudes leadership and authority with his distinguished appearance. He wears a stylish frock coat and has long hair flowing down to his shoulders. His confident gaze reflects the power he held within British politics at that time. The original painting by Jarvis is currently part of Thomas Walpole's collection and serves as a testament to Sir Robert Walpole's significant role in shaping British government and politics during the eighteenth century. This print captures not only an important historical figure but also represents an era when Britain began to establish its political landscape under strong leadership.
