EDITORS COMMENTS
This mezzotint print, titled "His Excellency Hamet Ben Hamet Ben Haddu Otter" offers a glimpse into the fascinating world of diplomacy and cultural exchange in the 17th century. Published by John Lloyd in 1682, this artwork showcases the esteemed Ambassador Extraordinary from the Emperor of Fez & Morocco to Great Britain. The subject of this portrait, also known as Mohammed bin Hadou or Muhammed ben Haddu al Attar, holds an air of regality and intrigue. His dignified presence is captured beautifully by Edward Luttrell, who skillfully portrays him in an oval frame with a half-length composition. Ambassador Ben Hadou's visit to the English court during Charles II's reign was not only significant politically but also culturally. According to contemporary commentator John Evelyn, he became a symbol of fashion and sophistication during his time in London. This artistic representation serves as a testament to the enduring Anglo-Moroccan alliance that originated centuries earlier out of shared animosity towards Spain. The ongoing diplomatic relationship between these nations played a crucial role in shaping history. As we admire this historical masterpiece today, we are transported back to a time when international relations were forged through personal connections and visual representations like this exquisite mezzotint print. It reminds us of the power art has to preserve moments from our past and shed light on forgotten chapters in our collective story.
