Titus Oates D.D. the first discoverer of the Plott.
[Loggan is tentatively suggested as engraver by O'Donoghue.]
[n.d. c.1680.]
Engraving. 247 x 159mm. 9¾ x 6¼". Paper watermarked.
Portrait of Titus Oates, half length in an oval frame on a pedestal, wearing wig, bands, and robe. Titus Oates (1649-1705) was an English perjurer who fabricated the 'Popish Plot', a supposed Catholic conspiracy to kill King Charles II. He began his career as an Anglican priest, but converted to Catholicism in 1677. This secured his admission to Jesuit college at St Omer, and this gave him enough information to give his story about a Catholic plot to murder Charles some plausibility. Oates swore his testimony to Sir Edmund Berry Godfrey in September 1678, and it was Godfrey's murder a few weeks later (a death that has never been explained) that overnight turned the plot in the public mind from allegation to certainty. Oates managed to retain a central role in the unfolding affair by continually inventing new accusations. In 1684, in the flood of the Tory reaction, he was prosecuted for perjury, and in 1685 sentenced to the pillory and public flogging. The Glorious Revolution saved him; he was pardoned, given a pension and married a wealthy widow. Ex Collection: R. Hobson of Hove.

Titus Oates (1649-1705), perjurer who fabricated the 'Popish Plot', a supposed Catholic conspiracy to kill King Charles II and incite an insurrection. He began his career as an Anglican priest, but converted to Catholicism in 1677. This secured his admission to Jesuit college at St Omer, and this gave plausibility to his story about a Catholic plot. Oates swore his testimony to Sir Edmund Berry Godfrey in September 1678, and it was Godfrey's murder a few weeks later (a death that has never been explained) that overnight turned the plot in the public mind from allegation to certainty. Oates managed to retain a central role in the unfolding affair by continually inventing new accusations. In 1684, in the flood of the Tory reaction, he was prosecuted for perjury, and in 1685 sentenced to the pillory and public flogging.

A rare illustration of one of the arches erected for the coronation procession of Charles II from The Tower of London to Whitehall, on St George's Day, April 23rd, 1661. At each arch the procession would pause to listen to speeches and song composed by John Ogilby (1600-72), 'Master of the Royal Imprimerie'. Ogilby is best known for his 1675 'Britannia', Europe's first road atlas, and the large-scale map of London, completed after his death by his wife's grandson William Morgan, publisher of this plate. This is an early English work by David Loggan, who came to England in the late 1650s, having been born in Danzig of English and Scottish parents.
