EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the portrait of Edward Sackville, Fourth Earl of Dorset, a prominent figure in 17th-century England. The image captures the essence of this distinguished aristocrat with his bearded face and elegant attire. Created by Sir Anthony van Dyck, a renowned painter of the time, this portrait reflects the artist's skillful ability to capture both physical likeness and inner character. Edward Sackville's life was marked by bravery and tragedy. In 1613, he engaged in a fateful duel for the hand of Venetia Stanley. Despite being gravely wounded and losing a finger during the encounter, Sackville managed to overcome his opponent. However, fate had other plans as Venetia chose another suitor instead. The original painting from which this print is derived belonged to His Grace The Late Duke of Dorset's collection. It serves as a testament to Sackville's enduring legacy within British history. Through this image, we are transported back in time to an era characterized by political intrigue and social hierarchy. Edward Sackville stands as a symbol of resilience amidst adversity while embodying the refined elegance associated with English aristocracy. This print not only offers us insight into one man's remarkable story but also provides us with an opportunity to appreciate Van Dyck's artistic talent that has transcended centuries.
