[Edward Russell Admiraal van Engeland] in ink
[Jacob Gole, c.1695]
Mezzotint, fine, proof before all letters; platemark 290 x 205mm (11½ x 8"). Thread margins; glued to backing sheet on left edge.
Edward Russell, earl of Orford (1652-1727), naval officer. In 1671, Russell was made lieutenant at the age of eighteen. He was promoted to captain in the following year. In the third Anglo-Dutch War he saw active service in the North Sea, before serving in the Mediterranean with Sir John Narborough and Arthur Herbert from 1676 to 1682. He served on the Tangier station in 1680 (it was then a British possession) and acquired a substantial fortune through illicit trading. This fortune was believed by Pepys to have been the reason why Russell resigned his command in 1683 after the discovery of the Rye House Plot. In 1688, Russell was one of the Immortal Seven, a group of English noblemen who issued the invitation to William of Orange to depose King James II. In the subsequent War of the Grand Alliance, Russell served at sea, commanding a fleet after 1690. In 1692, Russell was Commander-in-Chief of the Anglo-Dutch force that fought the French fleet at Barfleur, and destroyed much of it at La Hogue, his victory there being the decisive naval battle of the war. Russell became first Lord of the Admiralty in 1694, remaining in that post until 1699. He was created Baron Shingey, Viscount Barfleur, and Earl of Orford in 1697.
