EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Nell Gwyn, a prominent figure from the 17th century. Taken from a series of cigarette cards entitled Celebrities of British History produced by Carreas Ltd in 1935, this particular image captures the essence and allure of Nell Gwyn. The portrait is based on Sir Peter Lely's famous painting displayed at the National Portrait Gallery. Nell Gwyn was not just an actress but also gained fame as King Charles II's mistress. Her beauty and talent captivated both the king and audiences alike during her time in the entertainment industry. This photograph beautifully portrays her vibrant personality, with its vivid colors capturing her vivacious spirit. Intriguingly, Nell Gwyn's relationship with King Charles II caused quite a scandal during their era. Despite being involved in a royal affair, she managed to maintain her status as an esteemed lady while pursuing acting endeavors. This print serves as a remarkable memento of British history, offering us glimpses into the lives of influential figures like Nell Gwyn who left an indelible mark on society. It allows us to appreciate both her contributions to entertainment and her role within royalty during the 17th century. As we admire this stunning portrayal captured by The Print Collector, we are reminded of how art can immortalize individuals whose stories continue to fascinate us even centuries later.
