IMAGE number: BL3297187
Image title: An English civil war tract on the subject of Prince Rupert and the royalists. An anti-royalist broadsheet outlines thirty-eight acts of deceit and cruelty of Which Prince Rupert is accused. The woodcut showing a figure, in doublet and straight breeches with lace collar and cuffs. His coat is unbottoned to show off his lace shirt frills and his hair is tied in a lovelock. He has a sword at his side and leans on a stick. His debauchery is emphasised by his unbuttoned fly. His head is that of a wolf, his hands are a wolf's forefeet and eagle's claws jut from his breeches. It is intended as a zoomorphised derogatory image of Prince Rupert.
Location: British Library, London, UK
