Title: "Colonel John Okey: A Regal Figure of the English Civil War" Colonel John Okey, a prominent figure during the English Civil War (1642-1649), is depicted in this exquisite etching published by W. Richardson in 1812. The rare print, believed to have been created around 1650, offers a captivating glimpse into the past, revealing the stoic and resolute character of this remarkable military leader. Okey's equestrian portrait showcases the Colonel's imposing presence and unwavering determination. He is seen astride a powerful horse, his body upright and poised, as if ready to lead his troops into battle. The intricate details of his armor and uniform, along with the meticulous rendering of the horse's muscular form, underscore the skill and artistry of the engraver. This etching is an invaluable historical record, as it offers a visual representation of the appearance and demeanor of a key military figure during one of the most tumultuous periods in English history. The English Civil War, marked by political and religious strife, resulted in significant social and political changes, ultimately leading to the establishment of the Commonwealth.

He served under various commanders, including Oliver Cromwell, and was known for his bravery and strategic acumen. This etching serves as a testament to his enduring legacy and the indelible mark he left on the annals of English history. The rarity of this etching, published over two centuries after the events it depicts, adds to its allure and historical significance. It serves as a poignant reminder of the complexities and challenges faced by those who lived during the English Civil War, and the indomitable spirit that defined a generation of leaders like Colonel John Okey.
