EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the image of Samuel Pepys (1633-1703), a prominent English statesman and naval administrator, who is best known for his detailed and insightful diary. Pepys served as the Secretary to the Admiralty from 1673 until his retirement in 1689, a period that encompassed some of the most tumultuous events in English history. The autograph inscription below the portrait adds an intriguing layer to this historical artifact. It is a testament to the personal connection that once existed between the sitter and the owner of the portrait. The signature, "Samuel Pepys," is bold and confident, reflecting the strong personality of the man who penned one of the most valuable primary sources for the study of 17th-century England. The portrait itself is a striking representation of Pepys in his later years. He is depicted wearing a richly textured coat, a white collar, and a ruff, the fashionable attire of the time. His piercing gaze and expressive face convey a sense of intelligence, intensity, and determination. The backdrop of the portrait is a rich, red damask fabric, which adds a regal and opulent feel to the image. The intricate gold frame further enhances the portrait's visual appeal and historical significance. Samuel Pepys' diary, which he meticulously kept from 1660 to 1669, provides a unique and vivid account of the Restoration period in England. It offers insights into the political, social, and cultural life of the time, making it an invaluable resource for historians and scholars. This portrait, with Pepys' own signature, is a rare and precious reminder of the man behind the diary and the significant role he played in English history.
