EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait print showcases the esteemed Sir Thomas More, a prominent figure in English history. Painted by Hans Holbein the Younger in 1748, it beautifully captures More's dignified presence as Henry VIII's Lord Chancellor during the 16th century. Sir Thomas More was not only an accomplished lawyer but also a talented writer and politician. However, his unwavering devotion to his Catholic faith led him to clash with King Henry VIII when he refused to acknowledge the Act of Supremacy that declared Henry as head of the English Church. This act of defiance ultimately resulted in his imprisonment at the Tower of London in 1534 and subsequent execution for treason in 1535. In this engraving, Sir Thomas More is depicted wearing traditional Tudor attire along with a chain of office symbolizing his high-ranking position within politics. His hat adds an air of sophistication while emphasizing his status as a statesman. The monochrome aesthetic further enhances the timeless quality of this portrait. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are reminded not only of Sir Thomas More's religious convictions but also his unwavering commitment to principles and integrity. This print serves as both a historical artifact and a testament to one man's courage amidst political turmoil.
