Painting Description
"Sir Francis Drake" is an oil miniature portrait by the esteemed English portrait painter Isaac Oliver, believed to have been produced between the late 16th and early 17th centuries. Measuring 5.7 by 4.4 inches, the painting depicts the distinguished Elizabethan sailor and navigator, Sir Francis Drake, in three-quarters profile, clad in an elaborately embroidered doublet and wearing a ruff, a fine example of the fashion of the time.
The painting is noted for its meticulous attention to detail, such as the patterns and textures on Drake's clothing and the finely depicted features of his face, reflecting Oliver's skills as a miniaturist.
Isaac Oliver, having been trained under Nicholas Hilliard, the Queen's miniaturist, shares a similar, but more sophisticated approach. In this portrait, his precision and attention to minute detail bear witness to his mastery of this demanding art form. The portrait is one of the known representations of Sir Francis Drake, who played a prominent role in the history of Elizabethan England.
As of now, "Sir Francis Drake" by Isaac Oliver is proudly displayed in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, UK, a testament to the artistic accomplishment of the Elizabethan period.
