EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print, titled "Portrait of Thomas Pead, 1578" transports us back to the Elizabethan era with its exquisite details and rich symbolism. Painted by Cornelis Ketel in oil on panel, this masterpiece measures 86x70.5 cm and is housed in The Berger Collection at the Denver Art Museum, USA. The subject of this portrait is Thomas Pead, a prominent figure who served as the registrar of the archdeaconries of Norwich in Norfolk and Sudbury in Suffolk during his lifetime. At the age of 39, he sat for this painting which now serves as a poignant memento mori - a reminder of our mortality. Pead's somber expression hints at his awareness of life's fleeting nature while holding a quill pen suggests his intellectual pursuits. The elaborate ruff around his neck signifies his social status within Tudor society. Notably, there is also an intriguing element present: a skull placed prominently on the table beside him. This symbolizes death and serves as a stark reminder that even those in positions of power are not exempt from their inevitable fate. Ketel's meticulous attention to detail brings forth an incredibly lifelike representation that captures both Pead's physical appearance and inner essence. Through this remarkable artwork, we gain insight into one man's existence during an extraordinary period in history – forever preserved for us to admire thanks to Bridgeman Images' dedication to preserving fine art prints like these.
