EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigmatic beauty of Lucy Percy, Countess of Carlisle, a prominent figure during the English Civil War. Created in the early-mid 19th century, this engraving is based on a painting that resides in Petworth House, West Sussex. Lucy Hay, as she was known before her marriage to James Hay, Earl of Carlisle, lived a life filled with intrigue and political maneuvering. Rumored to have spied for both sides during the war simultaneously, she became an emblematic figure of cunning and loyalty. In this portrait, Lucy stands regally dressed in a lavish gown befitting her aristocratic status. Her hand gestures suggest confidence and authority while her elaborate hairstyle frames her face elegantly. It is said that she even pawned her precious pearl necklace to raise funds for royalist troops fighting against Parliament. The artist behind this remarkable piece remains unknown; however, their skillful rendering brings out every detail of Lucy's countenance. The monochrome palette adds depth and timelessness to the image. As we gaze upon this portrayal of Lucy Percy, Countess of Carlisle, we are transported back to a tumultuous era where power struggles dominated England's landscape. This print serves as a testament to one woman's indomitable spirit amidst chaos and uncertainty.
