The Bishops before the Privy Council, 1688
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that captures a significant moment in British history. Engraved by George Noble and illustrated by Robert Smirke, this artwork depicts the tense encounter between the Seven Bishops and King James II's Privy Council. Set against the backdrop of religious turmoil and political unrest in late 17th century England, this scene showcases clergymen standing up for their beliefs and challenging royal authority. The bishops' objection to King James II's Declaration of Indulgence, which granted religious toleration to Catholics but was highly unpopular among Protestants, led them to face the powerful council. In this thought-provoking image, we witness an intense meeting where advisors and dissenters engage in heated discussion. The bishops are seen pointing assertively as they voice their objections while King James VII of Scotland maintains a stoic presence at the center of attention. This historic event took place just prior to the Glorious Revolution when William III and Mary II ascended to power. It symbolizes not only a clash between religious factions but also highlights themes of freedom of conscience and resistance against authoritarian rule. The fine details captured in this engraving bring life to an important chapter in British history. As we gaze upon "The Bishops before the Privy Council" we are reminded of how individuals can challenge those in power for what they believe is right, even at great personal risk.
