EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed figure of Thomas West, 3rd Baron De La Warr, a prominent English merchant and politician who made significant contributions to American history. Educated at Oxford University, Lord De La Warr went on to become the first governor of Virginia, leaving an indelible mark on the early development of this influential colony. The contraction of his noble title led to the name "Delaware" which has since been associated with various aspects of American culture. It became not only the moniker for a Native American people but also for a state, bay, and river that hold great significance in our nation's heritage. Captured from a contemporary portrait, this illustration transports us back in time to witness Lord De La Warr's commanding presence and dignified demeanor. The vintage aesthetic adds depth and authenticity to this archival piece, allowing us to appreciate its historical value. As we delve into America's past through this enchanting picture engraving, we are reminded of the pivotal role played by individuals like Lord De La Warr in shaping our nation's destiny. This artwork serves as a window into both English and American history during the 16th and 17th centuries – an era that laid the foundation for what would eventually become the United States of America.
