EDITORS COMMENTS
Dr. Thomas Baily, also known as Thomas Bayly, was a prominent figure in 17th century England, best remembered for his role in the conspiracy against Oliver Cromwell. This black and white engraving, created by renowned artist Richard Earlom in 1810, is taken from Samuel Woodburn's publication "Portraits of characters illustrious in British History from the beginning of the reign of Henry the Eighth to the end of the reign of James the Second." Dr. Baily, dressed in the fashionable attire of the 17th century, is depicted as a cleric or churchman, reflecting his status as a Roman Catholic priest. His conversion to Catholicism during a time of religious turmoil in England made him a target of the Puritan regime led by Cromwell. The print shows him wearing a long, flowing robe with a simple white collar, typical of the ecclesiastical dress of the period. The background of the print is left blank, focusing the viewer's attention on the subject. Dr. Baily gazes directly at the viewer, his expression conveying a sense of determination and resolve. The engraving is a testament to the enduring power of religious conviction, even in the face of persecution. This print is an important historical document, providing a visual record of the appearance and demeanor of a significant figure in British history. It also offers a glimpse into the clothing and fashion trends of the 17th century, making it a valuable resource for scholars and enthusiasts of the era. The print, created by the skilled hand of Richard Earlom, is a beautiful and evocative representation of a pivotal moment in British history.
