Painting Description
"Stapleton Cotton, 1st Viscount Combermere, engraved by J. Jenkins" is a historical portrait engraving that depicts Stapleton Cotton, a prominent British Army officer who served during the Napoleonic Wars and held various colonial administrative positions. The engraving, which is part of the collection of the National Portrait Gallery, was produced around 1835 and published by Cornelius Pearson in the fifth volume of a series dedicated to notable portraits. The artwork captures Viscount Combermere in a dignified pose, reflecting his status and achievements in military and public service.
Stapleton Cotton, born in 1773, had a distinguished military career, rising through the ranks to become a Field Marshal. He is perhaps best known for his role in the Peninsula War and his subsequent tenure as the Governor of Barbados and the Commander-in-Chief of Ireland. In recognition of his service, he was created Baron Combermere in 1814 and later elevated to Viscount Combermere in 1827.
The engraver, J. Jenkins, skillfully rendered the portrait with attention to detail, capturing the likeness and regalia of the viscount, which would have been familiar to the contemporary audience of the time. The publication of this engraving by Cornelius Pearson contributed to the dissemination of the image of one of Britain's military heroes of the early 19th century, allowing the public to connect with the visage of a figure who played a significant role in the nation's history.
This portrait engraving is an important historical artifact, not only for its artistic value but also for its cultural significance, as it provides insight into the ways in which military leaders were commemorated and celebrated in the years following the Napoleonic Wars. It remains a valuable piece for researchers and enthusiasts of military history, portraiture, and the art of engraving.
