EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigmatic Cardinal Wolsey in all his glory. Taken from an engraving featured in "Cassells Illustrated Universal History, Vol. IV - Modern History" by Edmund Ollier, this portrait showcases the influential figure who played a significant role during the reign of Henry VIII. Cardinal Thomas Wolsey was not only Archbishop of York but also held the esteemed position of Lord Chancellor of England. A man of great power and influence, he was a bishop, statesman, and cardinal within the Catholic Church during a time when religious tensions ran high. In this image, Cardinal Wolsey is depicted gesturing with one hand while holding a book in the other. His regal attire includes an intricately designed cloak that adds to his air of authority. The profile view allows us to appreciate his distinguished features and commanding presence. As we delve into history through this photograph, we are reminded of Cardinal Wolsey's pivotal role as King Henry VIII's trusted advisor until their relationship soured over matters concerning divorce. This portrait serves as a visual testament to both his political prowess and religious devotion. Preserved for centuries, this image offers us a glimpse into 16th-century Britain and its intricate tapestry of power dynamics between church and state. It stands as a reminder that even figures once lost to time can be resurrected through artistry like this remarkable engraving captured by an unknown creator from long ago.
