EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Sir Edward Hoby, a remarkable figure of the 16th and 17th centuries. Born in 1560, Hoby was not only a soldier but also a diplomat and scholar. His father, Sir Thomas Hoby, served as an esteemed ambassador during Henry VIII's reign. In this portrait, we see Sir Edward Hoby dressed in the fashion of his time. He wears an elegant hat and a ruff collar that adds sophistication to his attire. The color print beautifully captures the essence of his distinguished presence. Hoby's direct gaze reflects his confident demeanor and intelligence. As Secretary to the Council of War in 1588, he played a crucial role in preparing England for its encounter with the Spanish Armada. The painting is currently housed at Bisham Abbey under the ownership of Sir Henry James Vansittart-Neale. This historical artifact serves as a testament to both Hoby's significant contributions and the rich tapestry of history. Through this image, we are transported back to an era where men like Edward Hoby shaped nations through their intellect and bravery on the battlefield. It reminds us that behind every great event lies individuals who embody dedication, knowledge, and courage – qualities epitomized by Sir Edward Hoby himself.
