  <abstract>"The Gallery of Portraits: with Memoirs. Volume 2 (of 7)" by Arthur Thomas Malkin is a collection of biographical essays written in the early 19th century. The work features detailed portraits and personal histories of notable figures in various fields, including politics, science, and art, showcasing their contributions and significance in history.   At the start of the volume, the reader is introduced to Lord Somers, a prominent figure in English law and politics during the late 17th century. The opening section describes Somers's early life, education, and eventual ascent to significant legal and political roles, setting the stage for his later influence in the English Revolution and the establishment of constitutional principles. The narrative paints a vivid picture of his character, capabilities, and the intellectual environment in which he thrived, intertwining Somers's story with the tumultuous history of his time.
