Portretten van zeven bisschoppen van Engeland, 1688 1688 - 1693

This etching, created by Dutch artist Pieter Schenk between 1688 and 1693, depicts seven English bishops. The portraits are arranged in a circular composition, with the Archbishop of Canterbury, William Sancroft, prominently positioned in the center. Each bishop is identified by name and title, and the etching includes details like the Tower of London and scales of justice, symbolizing the Church of England's authority. This artwork, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, provides a visual glimpse into the prominent figures of the Church of England during a crucial period in English history.
