EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the dignified presence of Sir John Coke, Secretary of State to King Charles I. In this 1814 engraving by Robert Dunkarton, we see Sir John Coke adorned in a lace ruff and cap, exuding an air of authority and sophistication. Sir John Coke was a prominent English politician and Member of Parliament during the 16th century. Serving as Secretary of State to King Charles I, he played a crucial role in advising the monarch on matters of state. This portrait showcases his importance and influence within the royal court. The mezzotint engraving beautifully captures the intricate details of Sir John Coke's attire, highlighting his status as a high-ranking official. The delicate lace ruff frames his face with elegance while the cap adds an element of formality to his appearance. This artwork is part of Richard Earlom and Charles Turners' "Portraits of Characters Illustrious in British History Engraved in Mezzotinto" series published by S. Woodburn in London in 1813. It reflects both the artistic skill involved in creating such engravings during that time period and their historical significance. Displayed proudly within private collections today, this print serves as a reminder not only of Sir John Coke's contributions but also as a testament to the rich history and culture that defined England during this era.
