EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a portrait of James I and VI, the King of England and Scotland during the 17th century. The image captures James in his regal attire, adorned with fur, velvet cloak, and a majestic crown. His full-length stockings and breeches add to the elegance of his outfit while reflecting the fashion trends of that era. James holds historical significance as he sponsored the publication of the King James Version of the Bible in 1611. This English translation played a crucial role in shaping religious practices for the Church of England. The portrait itself is based on an original painting from Windsor Castle's Royal Collection Trust. The photograph was featured in Sir Herbert Grierson's book "The English Bible" published by Collins in London in 1943. It provides viewers with a glimpse into British history, showcasing not only James' royal status but also highlighting his connection to both England and Scotland. With its intricate details captured through Paulus van Somer's artistic lens, this print serves as a visual reminder of James I's reign as well as his contribution to religious literature. It stands as a testament to his influence on British culture during one of its most transformative periods.
