The engraving was created by Robert Dunkarton in 1814, based on a portrait painted by the renowned artist Sir Anthony Van Dyke. Lord Francis Villiers tragically passed away at the young age of 19 in 1648. Lord Francis Villiers was born into a prestigious family as the son of George Villiers, the first Duke of Buckingham, and Katherine, who held favor with King James I. This mezzotint engraving beautifully captures his youthful features and aristocratic demeanor. The artwork is part of a private collection and provides us with a glimpse into British history during this period.
