EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving showcases Slingsby Bethell, the esteemed Sheriff of London and Middlesex in 1680. Created by an anonymous English artist during the 19th century, this print offers a glimpse into the life and attire of a prominent figure from centuries past. Slingsby Bethell stands proudly in his portrait, exuding authority and confidence. His elaborate costume reflects the fashion trends of the era, with intricate details adorning every inch. The fine craftsmanship is evident in his clothing, which features ornate embroidery and luxurious fabrics that speak to his high social status. The scroll held by Bethell adds an air of importance to the composition, suggesting that he was well-versed in legal matters or perhaps involved in civic duties. As Sheriff of London and Middlesex, it is likely that he played a significant role in maintaining law and order within these regions during a time when such responsibilities were crucial. Published on July 1st, 1800 - over a century after Bethell's tenure as sheriff - this engraving serves as both a historical artifact and a testament to his enduring legacy. Preserved within private collections for generations before being made available through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, this artwork allows us to connect with our past while appreciating the artistry behind its creation.
