EDITORS COMMENTS
Colonel John Russell: A Mysterious Military Commander of the English Civil War Era This evocative 17th century print depicts Colonel John Russell, a enigmatic military figure who played a significant role in the tumultuous period of the English Civil War. With a stern expression and an air of authority, Colonel Russell stands before us in full military regalia, his red coat adorned with gold braid and lace, signifying his rank and status as a Royalist commander. The exact details of Colonel Russell's life and military career, however, remain shrouded in mystery. Despite extensive research, historians have been unable to trace definitive records of his existence or exploits during the Civil War. The origins of this print, and the artist who created it, are also unknown. The English Civil War, which lasted from 1642 to 1651, was a pivotal moment in English history, marked by political upheaval, religious strife, and military conflict. The conflict began when King Charles I, a devout Catholic, sought to assert his divine right to rule without parliamentary interference. This led to a series of clashes between the Royalist forces, who supported the king, and the Parliamentarians, who sought to limit his power. Colonel Russell, if indeed he existed, would have been a key player in this complex and violent chapter of English history. His image, captured in this intriguing print, serves as a reminder of the enigmatic figures who shaped the course of events during this turbulent era. Despite the lack of concrete information about his life, Colonel Russell's presence in this print continues to intrigue historians and enthusiasts of military history alike, offering a tantalizing glimpse into the past.
