The 6th Duke of Rutland - A Glimpse into the Aristocratic World of Victorian Hunting
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This coloured engraving captures the essence of British aristocracy in the mid-19th century. The subject, Charles Cecil John Manners, known as the 6th Duke of Rutland, is depicted dressed for a hunting expedition in 1861. Standing tall and proud at Belvoir Castle in Leicestershire, UK, he exudes an air of authority and elegance. Dressed impeccably in traditional hunting attire, the duke's outfit showcases his status and love for this prestigious sport. His bearded face adds to his distinguished appearance while his red riding jacket and breeches reflect his membership within high society. As a prominent member of parliament and a staunch Conservative politician, the duke was not only renowned for his aristocratic lineage but also for his political influence. This portrait captures him during a momentary pause from political affairs, indulging in one of his favorite pastimes. The artist James B. Hunt skillfully brings out every detail with precision and artistry through this engraved print. From the intricate accessories like the stock tie to the well-tailored coat that drapes over him flawlessly – each element contributes to creating an image that epitomizes Victorian fashion. This remarkable piece offers us a glimpse into both history and culture; it allows us to appreciate not only fine art but also understand how societal roles were intertwined with sporting pursuits during this era.
