EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed Reginald Pole (1500-1558), a prominent figure in European history. The engraving, created by Adriaan van der Werff (1659-1722) and reproduced by Pieter Stevens van Gunst, beautifully captures Cardinal Pole's dignified presence. In this portrait, Cardinal Pole is depicted wearing a mozzetta robe and biretta hat, symbols of his religious role as Archbishop of Canterbury. His coat of arms adorns the image, adding an air of prestige to his profile. The oval shape of the engraving further emphasizes his singular importance. The attention to detail in this copperplate engraving is remarkable; every line etched with precision brings out the depth and character in Cardinal Pole's face. One cannot help but be drawn into his piercing gaze and contemplate the weighty responsibilities he carried as a cardinal. Surrounded by delicate foliage bordering on both sides, this artwork exudes elegance and sophistication. It transports us back to 18th-century Europe when religious orders played a significant role in society. As we admire this historical personage captured for eternity through artistry, we are reminded of the rich tapestry that is European history. This print serves as a testament to Reginald Pole's enduring legacy within religion and politics during his time.
