EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Robert Blake, an esteemed English commander and one of the most renowned admirals of the 17th century. The engraving, created by an anonymous artist from the English School in the 18th century, showcases a half-length portrait of Blake in all his glory. Dressed in traditional plate armor, Blake exudes strength and determination as he gazes confidently into the distance. His armor is meticulously crafted with intricate mesh detailing that adds to its grandeur. This portrayal perfectly encapsulates his role as a fearless leader within the military. Surrounded by other soldiers and naval officers, this image transports us back to a time when combat troops were revered for their bravery and dedication. The presence of female soldiers also highlights how gender roles were challenged even during this era. The composition evokes a sense of pride and honor associated with serving in the armed forces. It serves as a reminder of our rich military history and pays tribute to those who have fought valiantly for their country. Displayed proudly in private collections around the world, this remarkable engraving is not only visually stunning but also offers valuable insights into an influential figure from England's past.
