File talk:Nathaniel Bacon.jpg

Picture of the wrong man
This engraving was originally attached to Nathaniel Bacon of Bacon's Rebellion fame. This is an engraving of Sir Nathaniel Bacon. Nathaniel Bacon the rebel was not knighted. I have moved the picture here and removed it from the incorrect places.

This is the painter, not the Virginia colonist
This image is of the painter Nathaniel Bacon, not the Virginia colonist Nathaniel Bacon. Note the category at the bottom and, for instance the Yale Center for British Art (link: http://collections.britishart.yale.edu/vufind/Record/3622630) here: "People Represented or Subject • Bacon, Sir Nathaniel (1585–1627), painter". Further research |+From+an+Original+at+the+Lord+Viscount+Grimstons,+at+Gorhambury.+~&safe=off&tbm=bks&* on Google Books shows this as well. TuckerResearch (talk) 16:37, 11 March 2017 (UTC)
