EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing image captures the prominent figures of Richard Kilvert and Alderman Abell, two key individuals involved in the world of wine production and trade in the city of London during the early 17th century. Richard Kilvert, a skilled and respected lawyer, and Alderman Abell, a prominent Alderman and businessman, served as the main Projectors for Wine in the city. The term "Projector" referred to individuals who were granted a monopoly or exclusive rights to produce or trade in a particular commodity. The exact date of this photograph is uncertain, but it is believed to have been taken between 1641 and 1649. During this period, London was a bustling hub of commerce and industry, and the wine trade was a significant contributor to the city's economy. The Projectors for Wine held a great deal of power and influence, as they controlled the production, distribution, and pricing of wine within the city. Richard Kilvert and Alderman Abell are depicted here in formal attire, with Kilvert wearing a long, flowing robe and a tall, laced hat, while Abell wears a fur-trimmed gown and a tall, conical hat. Both men exude an air of authority and confidence, reflecting their powerful positions within London society. The significance of this photograph lies not only in the historical context of the wine trade in London during the 17th century but also in the larger context of the economic and political power structures of the time. The image offers a glimpse into the lives of two influential figures who played a crucial role in shaping the city's commercial landscape.
