EDITORS COMMENTS
Anthony, Count Hamilton (1646-1720): A Scottish Peer in Exile in France This evocative portrait captures the enigmatic figure of Anthony, Count Hamilton, a Scottish peer who found refuge in France during a tumultuous period in Scottish history. Born in 1646, Hamilton was a descendant of the ancient House of Hamilton, one of the most powerful and influential families in Scotland. However, his life took a dramatic turn when he was implicated in a plot against the English monarchy, leading to his exile in France. In his new homeland, Hamilton became a prolific writer and published his Memoirs of Count de Grammont, an intriguing account of his experiences in France and Scotland. The Memoirs offer a unique insight into the political intrigues and social customs of the time, as well as providing a fascinating personal perspective on the complex relationship between Scotland and France during the late 17th and early 18th centuries. Despite his Scottish heritage, Hamilton embraced French culture and became an integral part of French society. This portrait, dating from around 1680, captures the essence of his dual identity, with his Scottish bonnet sitting atop his French-style coat and waistcoat. The portrait also serves as a reminder of the complex web of alliances and allegiances that existed during this period, as well as the enduring influence of the Scottish diaspora on European history. Anthony, Count Hamilton's Memoirs remain an important historical document, providing valuable insights into a pivotal moment in Scottish and European history. This striking portrait offers a visual representation of a man who defied the boundaries of nationality and embraced the opportunities of exile, becoming a key player in the political and cultural landscape of his adopted homeland.
