This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving captures the dignified presence of John Fisher, Bishop of Rochester (1469-1535), a prominent figure in Catholicism during the tumultuous reign of King Henry VIII. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring to life the portrait originally created by the renowned artist Hans Holbein.
Fisher's steadfast devotion to his faith and unwavering principles made him a respected leader within the Christian community, earning him a place among the nobility of his time. His role as a trusted advisor to King Henry VIII further solidified his position at court, where he navigated complex political landscapes with grace and integrity.
The delicate artistry of Francis Bartolozzi's engraving beautifully complements Holbein's original drawing, capturing Fisher's noble bearing and profound spirituality. This timeless image serves as a poignant reminder of an era marked by religious upheaval and personal sacrifice.
As we gaze upon this exquisite print, we are transported back to the 16th century, where figures like John Fisher stood firm in their beliefs despite facing immense challenges. It is through works of art like this that we can appreciate the enduring legacy of individuals who shaped history with their courage and conviction.
