EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Henry Montagu" is a remarkable illustration from the renowned publication "A catalogue of Royal and Noble Authors, Volume II". Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print was published in 1806 and now resides in a private collection. The subject of this portrait is Henry Montagu, a prominent figure from the late 16th to early 17th century. Montagu held esteemed titles such as the 1st Earl of Manchester and Viscount Mandeville. Notably, he served as the English Chief Justice of the King's Bench during his illustrious career. In this striking image, Montagu exudes authority and intellect. He wears an elaborate ruff collar that frames his face with elegance. A necklace adorns his neck while he dons both a hat and cap atop his head. These details speak to his aristocratic status within society. Montagu's profession as an author shines through in this portrayal, emphasizing his literary contributions during a time when writing played a significant role in shaping cultural discourse. Additionally, it is worth mentioning that he also had experience as a barrister, judge, lawyer – further highlighting his multifaceted talents. With its historical significance and artistic finesse, this lithograph encapsulates not only Henry Montagu's persona but also provides us with valuable insights into the c16th-c17th era of British aristocracy.
