About the painting

This portrait of Oliver Cromwell is part of a series of portraits of eminent figures that Charles Lucy was commissioned to paint in 1868. Nearly all were 19th-century English parliamentarians; the exceptions were Cromwell, Horatio Nelson and Giuseppe Garibaldi. Sir Joshua Walmsley, who commissioned the series, then gave it to the Victoria and Albert Museum.
