EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the distinguished figure of Thomas Belasyse, 1st Earl Fauconberg, a prominent historical character from the 17th century. Belasyse's portrait captures his enigmatic personality and significant role in English history. Born around 1627 and passing away in 1700, he experienced a remarkable transformation during his lifetime. Initially a Parliamentarian during the tumultuous English Civil War, Belasyse later aligned himself with the Royalists after the Restoration of the Monarchy. This shift in allegiance reflects both his adaptability and deep-rooted convictions. The portrait serves as a visual testament to this intriguing transition. The image itself is an engraving based on an original painting by Mary Beale, skillfully reproduced by Abraham Bloteling. Its vintage quality adds depth and authenticity to its archival significance.

His piercing eyes seem to hold secrets untold, inviting us to delve into his story further. This print is not just a mere depiction; it is an invitation to explore our past through one man's journey amidst turbulent times.
