1609 1674 Autograph Clarendon Hyde Signature
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an authentic autograph signature of Edward Hyde, 1st Earl of Clarendon, also known as Earl Clarendon or Lord Clarendon (1609-1674). Born into an aristocratic family, Hyde rose to prominence as a statesman, historian, and author during the English Civil War and the Restoration. He served as Lord Chancellor under King Charles II and played a crucial role in shaping the political landscape of the post-war period. The image itself is a testament to the historical significance of Earl Clarendon. The engraving, titled "Zoust," depicts him in a dynamic pose, dressed in the attire of a 17th-century nobleman. With a determined expression, he holds a sword in one hand and a shield in the other, symbolizing his readiness to defend his beliefs and uphold his duties. The intricate detailing of the engraving, from the folds of his cloak to the textured surface of the shield, adds to the overall grandeur and authenticity of the piece. The autograph signature at the bottom left corner of the print further enhances its value, providing a tangible connection to the historical figure. Earl Clarendon's elegant, flowing script is clear and distinct, revealing the personal touch of the man behind the public persona. This unique combination of historical significance, artistic merit, and a genuine autograph makes this print an essential addition to any collection focused on English history, noble lineages, or the study of signatures.
