Summary

Description
English: Portrait in oils of Sir George Somers (1554-1610). Inscribed on the back: "Admiral Sir George Somers, 1554-1610, after a portrait by Paul Van Somer [sic]. Painted by C. X. Harris 1930." The original portrait, formerly the property of Winifred Bellamy of Plymouth, England, came to this country in 1929 for the exhibition of Virginia historical portraiture organized by Alexander Wilbourne Weddell under the auspices of the Virginia Historical Society. While the portrait was in Virginia, Mrs. Weddell commissioned the present copy for the Society's collection.
