EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable reconstruction drawing by the talented artist Graham Sumner. The artwork depicts none other than Sir Thomas Riddell, an esteemed Civil War commander of the Tynemouth Garrison in Tyne and Wear. As a Royalist army officer, Riddell played a significant role during this tumultuous period in history. The attention to detail in this graphic illustration is truly commendable. Every stroke of Sumner's brush brings to life the essence of Riddell's character and his unwavering commitment to duty. Clad in sturdy military armor, he stands tall with an air of authority befitting his position as commander. The image exudes strength and resilience, capturing the spirit of those who fought valiantly during one of England's most challenging times. Riddell holds a stuart weapon firmly in hand, symbolizing his readiness for battle and determination to defend Tynemouth Priory and Castle against all odds. Historic England has done justice by preserving this extraordinary piece that not only commemorates Sir Thomas Riddell but also pays homage to all soldiers who have dedicated their lives to protect their homeland throughout history. This print serves as a powerful reminder of our shared heritage and the sacrifices made by those who came before us.
