EDITORS COMMENTS
Sir Robert Bruce Cotton (1571-1631): A 17th Century Antiquary and Collector Sir Robert Bruce Cotton, an esteemed antiquary and collector of the 17th century, is depicted in this evocative portrait. Born in London in 1571, Cotton dedicated his life to the pursuit of knowledge, particularly in the areas of history and antiquities. His passion for the past led him to amass an impressive collection of manuscripts, coins, and other historical artifacts. Cotton's collection was not only extensive but also significant in its scope. He acquired documents and artifacts from various sources, including purchases, gifts, and bequests. Among his most notable acquisitions were the Cottonian manuscripts, which included the famous Anglo-Saxon Chronicle and the original Magna Carta. These treasures, along with many others, were housed in his magnificent library at his estate in Westminster, London. The portrait captures Sir Robert Bruce Cotton in the prime of his life, with a serious expression and an air of authority. He is dressed in the fashionable attire of the time, with a ruff collar and a voluminous doublet. The background is adorned with books and other antiquities, symbolizing his dedication to scholarship and his status as a collector. Sir Robert Bruce Cotton's legacy as an antiquary and collector is still felt today. His collection, which is now housed in the British Library, continues to be a valuable resource for scholars and historians. The portrait serves as a reminder of his important contributions to the study of history and the preservation of historical artifacts.
