Picture of the wrong man

[edit]

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

[edit]

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 on Google Books shows this as well. TuckerResearch (talk) 16:37, 11 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
