EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the regal presence of Henry, Prince of Wales, the eldest son of King James I. Painted by Robert Dunkarton in 1816, this portrait showcases Henry's noble stature and royal lineage. Dressed in a magnificent costume adorned with intricate details, he exudes an air of authority befitting his position as heir to the throne. Tragically, Henry's life was cut short when he succumbed to typhoid fever in 1612. His untimely death altered the course of history, as his younger brother Charles would go on to succeed their father as king instead. In this mezzotint engraving from Fifteen Splendid Portraits of Royal Personages, we are transported back to the 17th century England where power struggles and political intrigue were commonplace. The image depicts not only a prince but also a warrior, with weapons such as lances and pikes symbolizing his readiness for warfare. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and intensity to the portrait while emphasizing its historical significance. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry, we cannot help but marvel at the grandeur that once surrounded Henry Stuart - a man who could have been king but whose legacy lives on through this print.
