1626 1707 Bishop Churchman Patrick Simon
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the distinguished visage of Simon Patrick (1626-1707), an influential English churchman who served as the Bishop of Ely from 1689 until his death. Patrick was born in London and educated at Trinity College, Cambridge, where he developed a deep interest in theology and the Church of England. He was ordained a deacon in 1650 and a priest in 1652, and went on to hold various ecclesiastical positions throughout his long career. Patrick's tenure as Bishop of Ely was marked by his commitment to the Anglican faith and his efforts to promote religious harmony in a time of political and religious turmoil. He was a strong advocate for the Church of England's independence from both Rome and the state, and worked to strengthen the moral and spiritual foundations of his diocese. Despite his conservative theological views, Patrick was known for his compassion and pastoral care. He was a prolific writer and scholar, producing numerous works on theology, liturgy, and church history. One of his most notable publications was "The Doctrine of the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper," which helped to clarify Anglican beliefs on the Eucharist. This print, produced by Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the life of a man who dedicated his life to the service of the Church and the spiritual well-being of his flock. With his stern yet kindly expression and his elegant vestments, Bishop Patrick presents a striking and enduring image of the English churchman in the late seventeenth century.
