[Henry Somerset, first Duke of Beaufort - coat of arms].
Guil: Faithorne del: et sculp:
Engraving 276 x 201mm. 10¾ x 8¼inches. Trimmed on plate minor all over foxing.
Henry Somerset, Marquess of Worcester, [1629-1700] became the First Duke of Beaufort in 1682. Styled as Lord Herbert from 1646 until 1667, he survived the tumultuous and uncertain decades that followed the English civil war by creating remarkable political alliances. While sitting in the Cromwellian Parliament he maintained good relations with the Lord Protector. He was sent to the Tower in 1659 for his part in a Royalist plot and by 1660 was advocating the Restoration. He worked to restore his family’s estates and political power base. He also sought to tame political and religious passions and to bring order and stability. Henry, third marquis of Worcester and first duke of Beaufort, was a powerful regional magnate and became an active member of Charles II’s Privy Council. He refused to swear allegiance to William of Orange.

W. Faithorne Sculp [1661]
Engraving, sheet 220 x 145mm (8¾ x 5¾"). Trimmed; tipped into album sheet.
Ralph Brownrigg (1592-1659), bishop of Exeter. A noted Calvinist, Brownrigg held positions at St Catherine's College and Cambridge University before he lost them in 1645, when he was arrested for giving a sermon in which he was reported to have instructed Christians to put obedience to their sovereign before following Christian practice. The following year Brownrigg lost his episcopal office too, limiting his activities in his final years, although he achieved a posthumous reputation following the publication of his sermons, a 1661 volume of which this print was the frontspiece to. Engraving by William Faithorne (c.1620-91), printmaker who was apprenticed to the printseller William Peake, with whom he served in the royalist army during the civil war. At the Restoration Faithorne was appointed engraver in copper to the king, doubtless as reward for his devotion to the Stuart cause. The finest native British engraver born before the eighteenth century, Faithorne was highly esteemed by Pepys (who recorded many visits to his shop) while enthusiasts such as Horace Walpole ensured his posthumous reputation, which led to fine proofs of his work fetching extraordinary prices in the late Georgian period.

Engraving, sheet 160 x 105mm (6¼ x 4"). Trimmed and glued to backing sheet.
Abraham Cowley (1618 - 1667), poet: bust on pedestal in a niche. Frontispiece to Cowley's 'Poemata Latina' (1668). Educated at Trinity College, Cambridge, Cowley's first volume of verse was published in 1633 when he was fifteen, and included poems written as early as aged ten. As a Royalist during the English civil wars Cowley was deprived of his Cambridge fellowship in 1643. He joined King Charles I at Oxford before following Queen Henrietta Maria to France as her secretary. At the Restoration she granted him land. He studied medicine and became an MD in 1657, thereafter living in retirement, studying botany and writing essays. A prolific poet, Cowley had a high reputation among his contemporaries such as John Dryden and the earl of Rochester (his 'Works' were printed some fourteen times between 1668 and 1721). By the mid-eighteenth century he had come to seem old-fashioned, but still attracted praise from the likes of Alexander Pope and Samuel Johnson.
