Commonwealth and Cromwell
Elizabeth Claypole, Memorial, 1658, a pewter medal by T. Simon, bust right, hair swept back and falling as curls to the side, wearing a single strand of pearls, signed ts on truncation, 35mm (Platt II, p.38, type A [A6, this item]; MI I, 430/74). Very fine

Elizabeth Claypole (1629-58) was the second and favourite daughter of Oliver Cromwell. She married John Claypole in January 1646 and they had four children, the youngest of whom died an infant. Elizabeth herself became very ill and her premature death at Hampton Court undoubtedly hastened that of her father, who succumbed less than a month later.
