EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigmatic Lieutenant General Talmash in 1784. The creator of this portrait remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to this historic image. Lieutenant General Talmash, also known as Thomas Tollemache, was a prominent English soldier who played a pivotal role during the Glorious Revolution in the late 17th century. Tollemache's loyalty shifted from King James to William of Orange, earning him great favor with King William III. As a reward for his services, he was appointed governor of Portsmouth and colonel of the esteemed Coldstream Guards. His dedication to his country extended beyond military duties as he became a member of parliament in 1689. The direct gaze captured by the photographer reveals Talmash's strong character and determination. Encased in armor, he embodies strength and resilience that were essential traits for any military leader during that time period. This oval-shaped engraving is taken from "The History of England" by Paul de Rapin-Thoyras, published by Harrison in London. It serves as both a historical document and an artistic representation of an influential figure from British history. As we admire this monochrome portrait today, we are reminded not only of Lieutenant General Talmash's significant contributions but also the turbulent times he lived through - marked by rebellion and revolution. This print allows us to connect with our past while appreciating the bravery and leadership exhibited by individuals like Lieutenant General Talmash during critical moments in history.
