EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph captures the essence of Robert Blake, a prominent figure in English naval history. Published in 1825 as part of Crabbs Historical Dictionary, this print showcases the remarkable likeness of Admiral Blake. With his stern gaze and commanding presence, Blake's portrait exudes strength and determination. Clad in an elaborate Elizabethan costume complete with a ruff collar, he embodies the spirit of the seventeenth century. As a roundhead and parliamentarian during the English Civil War, Blake played a crucial role in defending parliamentary interests against royalist forces. The intricate details captured by the artist highlight not only Blake's physical features but also his unwavering commitment to his duties as a naval officer. His weathered face tells tales of countless battles fought at sea while protecting England's shores. Displayed proudly within a private collection, this print serves as a testament to Admiral Blake's legacy. It reminds us of his contributions to British maritime history and honors his bravery on behalf of the nation. As we admire this historical artifact from centuries past, let us remember that it is through individuals like Robert Blake that our understanding of history is enriched.
