EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the dignified presence of Edward Montagu, 2nd Earl of Manchester, a prominent figure in English history. Born in 1602 and passing away in 1671, he played a significant role during the turbulent times of the English Civil War. As an influential Parliamentarian, Montagu fought against the Royalists and supported the cause for which Parliament stood. However, despite his allegiance to Parliament, Montagu opposed the trial of Charles I and later became an active advocate for restoring monarchy. This portrait showcases his noble stature as well as his complex political journey. The image is a testament to both Montagu's military prowess and his diplomatic skills. It serves as a reminder that even amidst conflict, individuals can evolve their beliefs and work towards reconciliation. Captured by an unknown creator in 1899, this photograph brings together various historical figures associated with Montagu's life: Samuel Rawson Gardiner, Oliver Cromwell - Lord Protector of the Commonwealth - who had a close relationship with him; Viscount Mandeville (Montagu's previous title), Lord Kimbolton (his father-in-law), among others. Preserved through time by The Print Collector organization without any commercial intent mentioned here, this portrait offers us a glimpse into one man's journey through war and restoration within England's aristocracy during the seventeenth century.
