EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Sir John More, English lawyer" by E Scriven in 1826, transports us back to the 16th century. The portrait captures the essence of a distinguished man with its intricate details and monochrome palette. Sir John More, known for his legal expertise during this era, is depicted wearing an elegant fur-trimmed robe. His piercing gaze and pointed finger suggest a sense of authority and wisdom that befits his profession. This print serves as a testament to Sir John's prominence in Tudor England. The artist's skillful use of shading creates depth and dimension within the image, bringing Sir John More to life even centuries after his passing in 1533. The fine lines etched into the print showcase E Scriven's mastery as an engraver. As we admire this nineteenth-century rendition of Sir John More, it becomes evident that he was not only renowned for his legal prowess but also held great significance as the father of Thomas More – one of history's most influential figures. This remarkable piece from Heritage Images allows us to glimpse into the past and appreciate both the artistry involved in creating such prints and the historical importance attached to individuals like Sir John More. It serves as a reminder of their lasting impact on society while offering us a window into their world through this beautifully crafted portrait.
