William, Duke of Hamilton - Killed at the Battle of Worcester 1651
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an engraving by Robert Dunkarton, created in 1815 as part of the series "Portraits of characters illustrious in British History from the beginning of the reign of Henry the Eighth to the end of the reign of James the Second" by Samuel Woodburn in London. The print depicts William, 2nd Duke of Hamilton, a prominent Scottish aristocrat and Royalist commander during the English Civil War. Dressed in ornate 17th-century attire, the Duke is shown in a three-quarter length portrait, wearing a red doublet, white collar, and a plumed hat. The background is simple, with a plain grey backdrop. The title and inscription at the bottom of the print identify the subject as "William, Duke of Hamilton, Killed at the Battle of Worcester, 1651." The Battle of Worcester, fought on September 3, 1651, was the final major battle of the First English Civil War. The Royalist forces, led by the Duke of Hamilton, were defeated by the Parliamentarians under Oliver Cromwell. The Duke of Hamilton was killed in the battle, marking a significant loss for the Royalist cause. The print provides a glimpse into the fashion and style of the 17th century, as well as the historical context of the English Civil War. It is a poignant reminder of the significant role the Duke of Hamilton played in the conflict and the consequences of the battle for the future of England. The image, with its intricate detail, offers a striking contrast to the vibrant colors and complexities of the period it represents.
