EDITORS COMMENTS
John Combe: A Prominent Resident and Friend of Shakespeare in Stratford-on-Avon This evocative portrait captures the likeness of John Combe, a prominent resident of Stratford-on-Avon during the late Elizabethan era. John Combe is believed to have been born in Stratford and was a contemporary and friend of the renowned playwright, William Shakespeare. The exact date of this portrait is unknown, but it is estimated to have been created around 1614, based on Combe's age and attire. The portrait showcases Combe in a formal, high-collared doublet and a ruff, typical of the fashion of the time. His expression is serious and thoughtful, hinting at a man of intelligence and substance. Combe's connection to Shakespeare is an intriguing aspect of this portrait. While the nature of their friendship is not well-documented, it is known that they lived in the same town and were both active members of the local community. Combe served as a juror in a legal dispute involving Shakespeare in 1604, and Shakespeare wrote a poem in which he referred to Combe as "my old acquaintance." Stratford-on-Avon in the late 16th and early 17th centuries was a thriving town, with a diverse population of merchants, craftsmen, and members of the gentry. Combe, as a respected member of the community, would have been well-known to many of its residents, including Shakespeare. This portrait offers a glimpse into the past, providing a tangible link to the history of Stratford-on-Avon and the lives of its famous residents. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that continues to draw visitors to this historic town today.
