EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed figure of Jeremy Taylor, D. D. , Bishop of Down & Connor. Engraved by S. Freeman in the 17th century, this portrait captures the essence of a man who left an indelible mark on English literature and religious thought. Jeremy Taylor was not only a prominent bishop but also a highly regarded author during the Protectorate of Oliver Cromwell. Revered for his poetic style of expression, he earned the moniker "Shakespeare of Divines". This engraving beautifully portrays him as a distinguished cleric, exuding wisdom and intellect. The half-length depiction shows Bishop Taylor holding a book, symbolizing his profound contributions to prose writing. His attire reflects his ecclesiastical role with a cap, collar, and flowing robe that command respect. As Vice Chancellor of the University of Dublin and Bishop of Down & Connor, he played significant roles in both academia and spirituality. Through this print's intricate details and masterful execution by an anonymous English artist from centuries ago, we are transported back to an era when literary prowess intertwined seamlessly with religious devotion. It serves as a testament to Jeremy Taylor's enduring legacy within Anglican circles and beyond. This remarkable artwork is part of a private collection but can be appreciated by all who admire historical figures that have shaped our cultural landscape.
