EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the distinguished figure of Walter de Stapledon, or Stapeldon, a prominent historical figure from the 13th and 14th centuries. The portrait was skillfully captured by an English School artist in the 19th century. Walter de Stapledon held several significant roles during his lifetime; he served as the Bishop of Exeter, twice acted as Lord High Treasurer of England, and was also renowned for founding Exeter College in England. His contributions to both religious and educational spheres left an indelible mark on history. The engraving beautifully captures Stapledon's dignified presence, emphasizing his role as a clergyman. It transports us back to medieval times when theologians like him played crucial roles in shaping society.
