EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the moment when Prince Rupert of the Rhine, a prominent commander in the Royalist army during the English Civil War, marches through the historic city of Oxford in 1642. Clad in full armor and brandishing a sword, Rupert cuts an imposing figure at the head of his troops. The soldiers follow closely behind, their faces set with determination and resolve. A trumpeter sounds the call, urging the men forward as they make their way through the bustling streets of Oxford. The backdrop of this scene is the imposing spire of the University Church of St. Mary the Virgin, a symbol of the scholarly heritage of the city. The contrast between the tranquil beauty of Oxford and the ominous presence of the approaching soldiers highlights the disruption caused by the onset of civil war. Prince Rupert, a cousin of King Charles I, had arrived in England in 1627 to support his cousin's efforts to assert his authority against Parliament. The ensuing conflict between the Royalists and the Parliamentarians would last for over a decade, resulting in significant damage to the country and the loss of countless lives. Despite the gravity of the situation, the image conveys a sense of confidence and determination among Rupert and his troops. This sense of unwavering loyalty to the crown would become a defining characteristic of the Royalist cause during the civil war. The march through Oxford marked the beginning of a series of military successes for the Royalists in the early stages of the conflict, as they sought to maintain control over key strategic locations in England. This historical photograph, taken from the extensive collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of political upheaval and military conflict in 17th-century Britain.
