EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Cardinal Pole, a prominent figure in English history during the 16th century. The image, taken in 1830 by an unknown creator, showcases the dignified presence of Reginald Pole (1500-1558), who was educated at Magdalen College, Oxford. Reginald Pole served as the last Catholic Archbishop of Canterbury from 1556 to 1558. However, due to his opposition to King Henry VIII's actions during the Counter-Reformation, he was exiled for a significant period. This engraving is part of "Biographical Illustrations" by Alfred Howard and published by Thomas Tegg, R. Griffin and Co. , J. Cumming in London, Glasgow, and Dublin. The portrait depicts Cardinal Pole with a distinguished beard and wearing traditional ecclesiastical clothing that reflects his high position within the Church. His direct gaze towards the camera conveys strength and determination despite his challenging circumstances. This historical photograph offers a glimpse into England's religious turmoil during this era while showcasing Cardinal Pole as an influential figure who stood firm in his beliefs. It serves as a reminder of the complex interplay between religion and politics that shaped British history. As we admire this remarkable image captured almost two centuries ago, it invites us to reflect on Reginald Pole's enduring legacy within Christianity and his pivotal role in shaping England's religious landscape during one of its most transformative periods.
