EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait print captures the enigmatic figure of Henry Howard, 1st Earl of Northampton, in all his aristocratic glory. Painted by R Cooper in 1825, this image portrays a man who experienced both great heights and devastating falls from grace during the Elizabethan era. Henry Howard's life was marked by scandal and intrigue. His involvement in his brothers' plot to marry Mary, Queen of Scots, along with his own correspondence with her, led to him losing favor with Queen Elizabeth I. Suspicions of treason haunted him throughout his life, resulting in multiple arrests. In an effort to defend himself against accusations and challenge prevailing beliefs of the time, Howard published "A Defensative against the Poyson of supposed Prophecies" in 1583. This work attacked astrology and ultimately landed him in prison. The portrait showcases Howard's distinguished appearance: a well-groomed beard frames his face while he dons elaborate clothing complete with a ruff collar and chain of office. The hat atop his head adds an air of sophistication befitting an English nobleman. With its monochrome aesthetic capturing the essence of seventeenth-century England, this engraving offers a glimpse into the world inhabited by Henry Howard. It serves as a reminder that even those born into privilege can face turbulent times when caught up in political intrigues that shape history.
