EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Nell Gwyn, a renowned Restoration actress and the long-time mistress of King Charles II of England. Painted by Sir Peter Lely and engraved by Thomas Wright, this steel engraving captures the essence of Nell Gwyn's beauty and charm. In the image, Nell is depicted in a loose chemise, her hand gently resting on the head of a lamb. This symbolizes her innocence and purity amidst a world filled with intrigue and desire. As one of the most famous courtesans of her time, she captivated both the Earl of Rochester (John Wilmot) and King Charles II with her irresistible allure. Nell's cascading curls and delicate ringlets frame her face, enhancing her natural beauty. Her expressive eyes hint at a mischievous spirit that enchanted all who crossed paths with her. The portrait exudes an air of elegance befitting the Victorian era while also capturing the vibrant energy that characterized Restoration England. This print not only immortalizes Nell Gwyn but also offers us a glimpse into an era defined by its opulence, scandals, and artistic brilliance. It serves as a reminder that even in tumultuous times, individuals like Nell could rise above their circumstances to become celebrated figures in history.
