EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the distinguished figure of Edward Courtenay, 1st Earl of Devon. Created in 1824 by W Freeman, this engraving captures the essence of a prominent British aristocrat from the 16th century. With his commanding presence and direct gaze, Courtenay exudes power and authority. Born in 1527 as the only son of Henry Courtenay, 1st Marquess of Exeter, and Gertrude Blount, Edward Courtenay was deeply rooted in English nobility. His lineage can be traced back to illustrious ancestors such as William Blount, 4th Baron Mountjoy. The artist skillfully portrays Courtenay's facial features with intricate detail - his well-groomed beard and mustache adding to his air of sophistication. The monochrome aesthetic enhances the timeless quality of this portrait. Displayed against a simple background, this image allows viewers to focus solely on Courtenay himself. It serves as a reminder of an era when aristocracy played a significant role in shaping British history. Originally featured in "Portraits of Illustrious Personages of Great Britain" by Edmund Lodge and published by Harding and Lepard in London during the early 19th century, this print is now preserved for posterity thanks to The Print Collector collection.
