This is a list of ordinances and acts of the Parliament of England from 1642 to 1660, during the English Civil War and the Interregnum. As King Charles I of England would not assent to bills from a Parliament at war with him, decrees of Parliament before the Third English Civil War were styled ' ordinances '. [ 1 ]
The first official publication of the work in bound book format was published by Hendrick Aertssens in Brussels in 1660 (although the title page states the date as 1658). The title page of the book refers to it as 'Hoc Amphiteatrum Picturarum' ('This amphitheatre of pictures'). [ 4 ]

A number of pieces were recovered by Charles II after the Restoration of the monarchy in 1660, and they form the basis for the collection today. The Dutch Republic also presented Charles with the Dutch Gift of 28 paintings, 12 sculptures, and a selection of furniture. He went on to buy many paintings and other works.
The system was re-enacted and broadened with the Restoration by the Navigation Act 1660, [3] and further developed and tightened by the Navigation Acts of 1663, 1673, and 1696. [4] Upon this basis during the 18th century, the Acts were modified by subsequent amendments, changes, and the addition of enforcement mechanisms and staff.
