EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative portrait, Rachel Paule, the widow of the esteemed Bishop William Paule of Oxford, is depicted in solemn introspection. The image, captured around the year 1667, offers a glimpse into the life of a woman who had lived through significant historical events and personal loss. Born in the late 16th century, Rachel was married to William Paule in 1617, when he was already a distinguished scholar and theologian. He had been appointed Bishop of Oxford in 1621, and together, they embarked on a life filled with intellectual pursuits and ecclesiastical duties. During their marriage, Rachel supported her husband in his various endeavors, and their union was blessed with several children. Tragically, Bishop Paule passed away in 1654, leaving Rachel a widow at an advanced age. In this portrait, Rachel is shown wearing a somber black gown, signifying her widowhood. Her expression is thoughtful and contemplative, as if reflecting on the past and the future. The intricate lace collar and cuffs adorning her attire speak to her wealth and status. Rachel's life was marked by the tumultuous political and religious climate of the time. The English Civil War and the subsequent Interregnum brought about significant changes to the Church of England, and Rachel lived through these turbulent times as a widow and a mother. Despite the challenges, Rachel persevered, and this portrait serves as a testament to her strength and resilience. Her story is a reminder of the complexities and nuances of women's lives during this period, and the role they played in shaping history.
