EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Great Seal of the Common Wealth of England, 1785". Created by an unknown artist, this historical artifact dates back to the English Commonwealth period. The seal features two sides: one face depicts a view of parliament with the inscription "In the third year of freedome by Gods blessing restored, 1651" symbolizing a significant moment in history. On the other side, we see the Latin phrase "Magnum Sigillum Reipub. Angliae Scotiae et Hyberniae" along with a heraldic crest. Preserved from a proof impression on wax once owned by Lady Margaret Harley, also known as Duchess of Portland, this piece holds immense historical value. It represents not only a turbulent time during the English Civil War but also signifies national identity and political significance. The intricate engraving captures various elements such as lions and unicorns - mythical creatures that hold symbolic meaning within British mythology. These creatures represent strength and purity respectively while reflecting upon England's rich heritage. Through this monochrome image expertly captured by John Goldar for The Print Collector publication, viewers are transported back to seventeenth-century England where politics intertwined with war and nation-building efforts were at their peak. This photograph serves as both an educational tool for understanding our past and an artistic masterpiece that celebrates our shared history.
