Anna. Comtissa de Bedford.
Antonius, Van Dyck Eques pinxit. P. Lombart Sculpsit.
Londini, avec Priv. du Roy et ex. parisis. [n.d. c.1660.]
Copper engraving. Plate 350 x 247mm. 13¾ x 9¾".
Anne Carr, Countess of Bedford (1620-1684) was wife to William, Duke of Bedford and daughter or Robert Carr, Earl of Somerset and Frances Howard. According to Burke's Peerage, she was born in 1615 in the Tower of London, but other sources give 1620. Lombart's most famous work was the series of twelve portraits after van Dyck that he engraved around 1660, often known as the 'Countesses' from the Latin of their titles. Mariette in his entry on Lombart in his Abecedario stated that this set alone would suffice to place him 'au rang des premiers graveurs'. All twelve plates are the same size, and show three-quarter-length figures, ten women and two men, in 15mm wide borders that imitate frames of the period.

Carolus I. dei Gratia Magnæ Britanniæ rt Hiberniæ Rex.
Wandeck Pinxit. P. Lombart Sculp.
[n.d., c.1655.]
Engraving. Sheet 540 x 350mm (21¼ x 13¾"). Trimmed into image, damaged, tears to folds bottom right.
An equestrian portrait of Charles I in armour, battle scene behind, an impression from the famous 'headless horseman' plate. The king has a distinct 'halo' from obvious re-engraving. Although the original oil (attributed to van Dyck, with one copy now in Buckingham Palace, the other in Petworth House) depicted Charles I, the earliest known impression of this plate shows Cromwell, although even that example had been re-engraved. The next state is also Cromwell, followed by one headless, two of Louis XIV, a Cromwell, a Charles I and finally Cromwell again.
