EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate Coat of Arms of Oliver Cromwell, a prominent figure in English history. Created by an anonymous 16th-century English artist, this engraving captures the essence of Cromwell's powerful role as Lord Protector of England, Scotland, and Ireland. The coat of arms is rich with heraldic symbols that represent Cromwell's authority and achievements. A majestic dragon stands tall on one side, symbolizing his strength and courage. On the other side, a fierce lion rampant represents his leadership and dominance. Above them all sits a regal crown, signifying his noble status. The Latin inscription "Pax quaeritdr bello" boldly declares that peace is obtained through war—a testament to Cromwell's military prowess during turbulent times. The shield proudly displays St George's Cross and St Andrew's Cross, representing England and Scotland respectively. This remarkable piece also highlights elements associated with the Commonwealth era such as roundhead helmets and flags bearing the crest. It serves as a reminder of an important period in British history when power shifted from monarchy to republicanism. Preserved in a private collection today, this extraordinary engraving offers us a glimpse into the life and legacy of Oliver Cromwell—an influential male figure who left an indelible mark on Britain's past.
