EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite portrait print captures the dignified presence of Charles Howard, 2nd Baron Howard of Effingham, later 1st Earl of Nottingham. Created in 1576 by renowned British artist Nicholas Hilliard, this painting showcases the skill and artistry that made Hilliard one of the most celebrated portrait miniaturists of his time. The subject, Charles Howard, is depicted with a regal poise befitting his noble status. His piercing gaze exudes confidence and authority, while his elaborate attire reflects the opulence and grandeur associated with the Elizabethan era. The delicate watercolour technique employed on vellum adds a softness to the image, enhancing its overall elegance. Housed within a gilt metal frame, this artwork exemplifies both historical significance and artistic mastery. It serves as a testament to England's rich heritage and cultural legacy during the 16th century. Currently held at The Cleveland Museum of Art as part of their esteemed collection, this print allows viewers to appreciate not only Hilliard's talent but also gain insight into an important figure from British history. Whether displayed in private homes or public spaces dedicated to preserving our past, this portrait invites us to delve into an era long gone yet forever immortalized through art.
