"Defender of the Faith: A Glimpse into the Turbulent Era of Charles I and Speaker Lenthall" Step back in time to the mid-17th century, a period marked by political upheaval and religious strife. Our journey begins with a mysterious portrait from c1850, depicting Charles I alongside Speaker Lenthall. Their faces bear witness to the weighty responsibilities they carried as defenders of their faith. As we delve deeper into this era, we encounter Sir John Nicholas captured in a stunning 1667 portrait by Peter Lely. His dignified countenance reflects his unwavering commitment to upholding his beliefs amidst an ever-changing world. The enigmatic figure of Cromwell emerges next, portrayed in an 1830 artwork that captures both his power and complexity. This influential leader left an indelible mark on history as he navigated through treacherous waters while remaining steadfast in defending what he held dear. Our exploration takes us further into society's fabric, examining clothing during the reigns of Charles I, II, and James II. These garments tell tales of opulence and elegance intertwined with political tensions simmering beneath the surface. A striking portrait reveals George Percy adorned in a shirt made of Holland linen worn with doublet – a symbol not only of fashion but also social status during this period. The intricate details speak volumes about how individuals used attire to project their allegiance or assert their position within society. Moving beyond individual portraits, we stumble upon "The Apotheosis of the Duke of Buckingham, " created around 1900. This captivating piece showcases James I's elevation to divine status at its center while surrounding friezes depict cherubic figures engaged in celestial activities – perhaps hinting at aspirations for spiritual protection amidst earthly chaos. Rubens' genius shines through another artwork from 1830 that immortalizes Seldon - a prominent legal scholar whose intellectual prowess defended principles close to his heart.
