EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, titled "Portrait of John James Howell Coe" takes us back to the 1820s and offers a glimpse into the life of an esteemed individual. Painted with meticulous detail on canvas by an anonymous English School artist from the 19th century, this oil painting is now housed in the Library and Museum of Freemasonry in London, UK. John James Howell Coe was not only a prominent figure but also held the prestigious position of master of the Lodge of Peace and Harmony. The regalia he wears in this portrait symbolizes his affiliation with English Craft Freemasonry, including his striking red apron as Grand Steward. Seated confidently on a chair adorned with Masonic symbols, Coe exudes authority and wisdom. A terrestrial globe rests beside him, representing his worldly knowledge and influence. Above him hangs a celestial map, alluding to his connection with higher realms. The various badges and jewels adorning Coe's collar further emphasize his status within the fraternity. A gavel lies prominently on display—a tool used for maintaining order during Masonic ceremonies—highlighting Coe's role as a leader within these rituals. This remarkable painting has been faithfully reproduced by Bridgeman Images under permission from the Grand Lodge of England. It serves as both a historical artifact capturing an important moment in time and a testament to John James Howell Coe's significant contributions to Freemasonry.
