EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking portrait captures the enigmatic figure of Edward De Vere, the 17th Earl of Oxford (1550-1604), a man of great intellectual and artistic prowess during the Elizabethan and Tudor eras. The Earl of Oxford is best known for his literary accomplishments, having been identified by some scholars as the true author of the works attributed to Shakespeare. However, his true identity as the Bard remains a subject of ongoing debate among historians and literary scholars. The portrait, dating from the late 16th century, depicts the Earl in a ruff collar and a high-collared, double-breasted doublet, typical of the fashionable attire of the time. His supercilious expression and piercing gaze suggest a man of great intelligence and confidence. The Earl's attire and demeanor convey a sense of refinement and sophistication, fitting for a member of the nobility. Edward De Vere was born in Oxford, England, and was educated at Cambridge University. He held various positions at the English court, including Master of the Horse and Lord Chamberlain. The Earl was also a patron of the arts, supporting the works of renowned playwrights such as Christopher Marlowe and Ben Jonson. Despite his many accomplishments, the Earl of Oxford's life was marked by scandal and intrigue. He was involved in several love affairs and was implicated in a plot to assassinate Queen Elizabeth I. These controversies, along with the ongoing debate over his authorship of Shakespeare's works, continue to fascinate scholars and history buffs alike. This portrait offers a glimpse into the life of a complex and intriguing historical figure, whose legacy continues to captivate the imagination of scholars and the public alike.
