EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving showcases the esteemed figure of Sir Thomas More, a man of many talents and accomplishments. Created by the renowned artist Holbein the Younger, this print captures More's dignified presence and intellectual prowess. Sir Thomas More was not only an English lawyer but also a social philosopher, author, and statesman. His contributions to British history are immeasurable, making him one of its most illustrious characters. This portrait is part of a collection titled "Portraits of Characters Illustrious in British History" published in 1815. More's legacy extends far beyond his legal expertise; he was known for his unwavering moral compass and commitment to justice. As an author, he penned influential works that explored political theory and societal issues. His writings continue to inspire readers today. Hailing from Germany, Holbein the Younger masterfully captured More's essence with intricate details that highlight his intelligence and charisma. The print offers viewers a glimpse into the world of Renaissance Europe while emphasizing More's significant role within it. Displayed against a plain background, this engraving allows us to focus solely on Sir Thomas More himself – his piercing gaze conveys wisdom accumulated through years of experience. It serves as both a historical document preserving an important figure in European history and as a testament to human intellect and resilience.
