Robert Walker (painter)

[4] This likeness was considered by diarist John Evelyn (1620–1706) to be the truest representation of Cromwell which he knew (see Numismata, p. 339).

In another portrait by Walker, Cromwell wears a gold chain and decoration sent to him by Queen Christina of Sweden.

[1] Walker painted Henry Ireton,[5] John Lambert[6] (examples of these two in the National Portrait Gallery), Charles Fleetwood, Richard Keble and other prominent members of the parliamentary government.

The paintings noted as "by" or "by or after" with no other attribution are of Adrian Scrope, John Evelyn, Oliver Cromwell, two unknown men, and himself.

His portrait entitled Richard Deane, 1610–53, General at Sea is in the collection of the National Maritime Museum.
