EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the dignified presence of John Digby, First Earl of Bristol, during the early 17th century. Created by artist Renold Elstrack in 1911, this engraving is based on an original portrait found at the National Portrait Gallery in London. John Digby was a prominent English diplomat and staunch royalist who played a significant role during the tumultuous period of the English Civil War. Born in 1580 and passing away in 1653, he held various titles including Baron of Shirborne and eventually became the First Earl of Bristol. In this image, Digby's aristocratic status is evident through his attire - a finely tailored outfit befitting his position. His hat adds an air of sophistication to his appearance as he gazes confidently into the distance. Renold Elstrack skillfully captures not only Digby's physical likeness but also conveys his importance within society during that era. The monochrome presentation enhances the timeless quality of this historical portrait. As we admire this remarkable piece from Historical Portraits 1600-1700 published by The Clarendon Press, Oxford in 1911, we are transported back to a time when men like John Digby shaped England's destiny with their diplomatic prowess and unwavering loyalty to their cause.
