Engraving of Oliver Cromwell. Whole length with wreath, long hair, plain collar, and full armour, standing holding a sword piercing three crowns in right hand and an open Bible in his left.  

This famous and incredibly rare print celebrates the victory of the Parliamentarians and the establishment of Oliver Cromwell as Lord Protector of the Commonwealth. The figure of Cromwell, standing at the centre, clad in full armour and standing on the prostrate body of a whore of Babylon and a serpent of Error and Faction. The Lord Protector stands between two great pillars, one representing the fundamentals of English society, and the other bearing representations of the three kingdoms of Anglia, Scotia, and Hibernia, each of whom are depicted kneeling and offering Cromwell a crown of wreaths. Above the figure of Cromwell are three Old Testament scenes depicting the journey and safety of Noah's Ark and a third scene of the Sacrifice of Isaac. Below are several small allegorical scenes depicting the happiness and prosperity of the country, and other scenes representing plots against the state.
