Description
18th century line engraving portrait miniature of Sir Henry Vane the Younger Engraved portrait miniature of Sir Henry Vane the Younger Line engraving by Charles Grignion, circa 1760 Framed in a 19th century black lacquered frame with domed glass, gilt bezel and thistle hanger. 14.5cm H, 12cm W. Sir Henry Vane the Younger - A man “Too dangerous to let live” in the eyes of a monarch. Born in May 1613, he was an influential English parliamentarian and a governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony during a tumultuous period marked by the English Civil War. Returning to England, he became a significant figure in Parliament, opposing Charles I and advocating for progressive reforms, including the abolition of the episcopacy. Vane played a critical role during the English Civil War, negotiating alliances and promoting religious tolerance, while also maintaining a cautious relationship with Oliver Cromwell. His political career was marked by high-profile conflicts and eventual imprisonment following the Restoration of Charles II, culminating in his execution in June 1662. His execution as described by the diarist Samual Pepys: He made a long speech, many times interrupted by the Sheriff and others there; and they would have taken his paper out of his hand, but he would not let it go. But they caused all the books of those that writ after him to be given the Sheriff; and the trumpets were brought under the scaffold that he might not be heard. Then he prayed, and so fitted himself, and received the blow; but the scaffold was so crowded that we could not see it done....He had a blister, or issue, upon his neck, which he desired them not hurt: he changed not his colour or speech to the last, but died justifying himself and the cause he had stood for; and spoke very confidently of his being presently at the right hand of Christ; and in all things appeared the most resolved man that ever died in that manner, and showed more of heat than cowardize, but yet with all humility and gravity. One asked him why he did not pray for the King. He answered, "Nay," says he, "you shall see I can pray for the King: I pray God bless him!"
