"Histoire d'Angleterre" is a captivating journey through the rich tapestry of England's past. From the valiant Thomas Fairfax, Lord Fairfax, an English nobleman and Parliamentary general, clad in his suit of armor with a delicate lace collar, to the formidable Thomas Wentworth, 1st Earl of Stafford, an influential statesman depicted in a lace collar over his imposing armor alongside his death mask, axe, and baton. The Duke of Buckingham himself graces these pages as well - George Villiers exudes elegance with his lace collar and pearl necklaces juxtaposed against a leather breastplate. The engravings by Charles Simonneau after Adriaen van der Werff truly bring these historical figures to life from Isaac de Larrey's "Histoire d'Angleterre. " We also encounter James VI of Scotland who became James I of England - Jacques Premier portrayed wearing a regal lace ruff collar adorned with symbols representing St. George and the dragon while two putti assemble a coat of arms beneath a crown. Notable personalities such as Sir Nicholas Bacon and monarchs like James V and James IV are immortalized in intricate engravings that capture their essence. Elizabeth of York too finds her place within this chronicle; her image engraved delicately onto the page. King James II takes center stage with his wig, lace kerchief, and chain bearing St. George slaying the dragon; meanwhile vignettes depict Roman emperors losing their crowns to soldiers - symbolic representations masterfully woven into this narrative. George Monck stands tall among them all - 1st Duke of Albemarle dressed impeccably in his lace collar jacket and sash; Benedict Audran's copperplate engraving ensures that we remember him for generations to come. William I Prince of Orange or William the Silent commands attention donning both armor embellished with delicate lace ruffs along with a coat of arms above and flintlock pistol with lead shot below.
