Blank greetings card with envelope featuring:

Sir Archibald Hope of Pinkie, 9th Bt NPG D16493

© National Portrait Gallery, London

by John Kay

This print shows a well-known local landowner on having been made President of the exclusive Caledonian Hunt. Hope liked to live the life of a country gentleman, enjoying traditional masculine pursuits rather than what he saw as effeminate modern pastimes. Surrounded by horses and hounds, he entertained generously and devoted himself to his estate, improving his lands and establishing extensive salt and coal works, from which he made his fortune.

Card size: 125mm x 175mm

Images are printed in their original proportions, within a white border.
