In this particular print, an anonymous alderman stands tall in his ceremonial costume. Dressed in a long red robe adorned with luxurious fur trimmings, he exudes authority and importance. The vibrant color palette adds depth to the image, emphasizing the opulence of his attire. The Guildhall Library and Art Gallery proudly houses this remarkable piece that offers us a glimpse into the past.
