EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable Hugh Myddleton, an influential figure in Welsh history. The engraving, skillfully crafted by Cornelius Jansen, immortalizes Myddleton's legacy as a multifaceted individual who excelled in various fields. Born in 1560, Myddleton was not only a successful goldsmith and banker but also an ingenious engineer. His visionary mindset led him to undertake ambitious projects that would shape the landscape of his time. One such endeavor was the creation of the New River, a groundbreaking feat of engineering that brought fresh water from Hertfordshire to London. The intricate details captured in this engraving highlight Myddleton's determination and entrepreneurial spirit. As a mine owner and clothmaker, he demonstrated his ability to navigate different industries with finesse and success. Myddleton's contributions were not limited to his professional pursuits; he played a significant role in society as well. Knighted by King James I and later bestowed with baronetcy, Sir Hugh Myddelton left an indelible mark on both Wales and England. This print serves as a testament to the extraordinary life led by Hugh Myddleton—a man whose brilliance transcended boundaries and continues to inspire generations today.
