Cor: Nico: Schurtz sc.
[n.d., c.1690].
Engraving. Rare. Sheet size: 195 x 145mm. (7¾ x 5¾"). Trimmed inside platemark. Slight damage to bottom right corner.
Portrait of Oliver Cromwell (1599 - 1658), bust-length, turned to left, wearing armour with a burning ship in the left background. In an oval frame with Cromwell's arms attached at bottom. Illustration to Johann Christoph Beer's, 'Das Neu-Geharnische Groß-Britannien', a set of fourteen portrait illustrations, published in 1690. Until 1640, Cromwell played only a small role in local administration and no significant role in national politics. However, it was the civil wars of the 1640s which lifted him from obscurity to power. Cromwell was one of the signatories of King Charles I's death warrant in 1649, and, as a member of the Rump Parliament, he dominated the short-lived Commonwealth of England. Eventually, in December 1653, he became head of state as Lord Protector, serving for almost five years, until his death on 3 September 1658.

Etching, rare, sheet 250 x 200mm (9¾ x 8"). Trimmed to plate, mounted on album paper.
An anti-Commonwealth portrait of Oliver Cromwell, still giving his military rank rather than 'Lord Protector', his rank post 1653. Among the allegorical figures in the borders are several references to his desire to be made king. This print originated as a portrait of Dirk Rafaelsz. Camphuysen (1586-1627), painter, poet and cleric by Cornelis Visscher after Caspar Casteleyn. The portrait was subsequently changed to that of Cromwell, the text changed, and new vignettes added in the top corners. The three female personifications are substantially the same as for the Camphuysen state, but they have been subtly changed to yield different meanings in the new context.

Portrait of Oliver Cromwell (1599-1658), lord protector of England, Scotland, and Ireland, with a battle taking place behind him, after a painting by Robert Walker. With allegorical tree glorifying Cromwell below. Both were published as illustrations to Louis de Gand's 'Parallelum Olivae' (1656). Two engravings 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.

Portrait of Oliver Cromwell (1599-1658), lord protector of England, Scotland, and Ireland, with a battle taking place behind him, after a painting by Robert Walker. With allegorical tree glorifying Cromwell below. Both were published as illustrations to Louis de Gand's 'Parallelum Olivae' (1656). Two engravings 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.

Olivier Cromwell Luytenant Generael van de Armee vant Parlement van Engeland.
[Cornelis Visscher after Caspar Casteleyn]
[published by Clement de Jonghe, c.1653-8.]
Etching. Sheet 250 x 200mm (9¾ x 8"). Trimmed to plate, mounted on album paper. Some staining & damage; repaired tears.
An anti-Commonwealth portrait of Oliver Cromwell, still giving his military rank rather than 'Lord Protector', his rank post 1653. Among the allegorical figures in the borders are several references to his desire to be made king. This print originated as a portrait of Dirk Rafaelsz. Camphuysen (1586-1627), painter, poet and cleric by Cornelis Visscher after Caspar Casteleyn. The portrait was subsequently changed to that of Cromwell, the text changed, and new vignettes added in the top corners. The three female personifications are substantially the same as for the Camphuysen state, but they have been subtly changed to yield different meanings in the new context.

London, Printed 1659.
Pamphlet, pp.6, uncut, bound into a card folder, very scarce. Some creasing.
'Sir. The World dos not so much bewaile the fall of your late Highness, as wonder you could fall so easily from it, and not crush any thing but your Highness'. A philosophic look at the fall from power of Richard Cromwell, Lord Protector for just nine months after the death of his father, Oliver Cromwell. Lacking the support of the New Model Army he found his position untenable and allowed himself to be bought off. The author suggests the reins of power would pass to Richard's brother Henry, but the office of Lord Protector was abolished. A year later the monarchy was restored. One copy of this pamphlet is dated 'June 13th', which would date the pamphlet to around three weeks after his protectorate formally came to an end.
