HE follotving lines should be called, perhaps, an acknowledgment rather than a Preface, inasmuch as what I have to say in them is mainly to express gratittide for favours received. First then, let me record my sense of the honour and the favour done me by Her Majesty The Queen, in giving Her gracious permission to reproduce such miniatures as I might select from the Royal Library. The like acknowledgment is due to many noble and private owners (too numerous to mention here) of similar treasures. I have appended their names in the list of Illustrations, and to each and to all I beg to offer most sincere thanks for their courtesy. As to the book itself, whilst it does not claim to be an exhaustive treatise upon an art, the history of ivhich extends over centuries, nor to be a biographical dictionary of the numberless artists who have practised " limning" I trust the characteristics of the style of the leading painters are made clear, and that particulars of their careers are given m sufficient detail. I am indebted to Redgrave s Dictionary of Artists; and to Dr. Propert's History of Miniature Painting, for valuable information on the subject. The substance of som£ of the earlier chapters appeared in the '' Art Journal" of i8g6, and I am glad to have the proprietors consent to the utilisation of it. V. In the Appendices will be found the titles, purchasers, and prices of the Miniatures at the famotis Strawberry Hill sale ; also the Miniatures contributed to the " Old Masters " in iSjg, and to the Ttidor, Sttiart, and Guelph Exhibitions. I have to thank the Council of the Royal Academy, and the Proprietors of the New Gallery for kind permission to use the Catalogues of these important Exhibitions. To the accotcnts given of Sir W. Ross, R.A. and R. Thorburn, A.R.A., I have added, in the one case, the titles and owners of the portraits at the Exhibition of Sir William's works in i860 (Appendix B) ; and, in the case of Mr. Thorburn, a list of his principal sitters, for which I have to thank his widow. I have arranged alphabetically all the named examples of the unrivalled Loan Collection at Kensington in 1865, when between 3,000 and 4,000 Miniatures were shewn, and added, in a large number of instances, the date of birth and death of the persons represented. This mass of information should form a valuable body of reference matter, shewing, as it does, what portraits exist of given individuals, and who possess them ; as well as what works of given artists are available for inspection : in short, its utility as a means of historical illustration and of artistic comparison should be very considerable. In the Index the names of the Artists mentioned in the book (zvith dates where procurable) are given in italics, these form a fairly comprehensive list of Miniature Painters, sufficient, it is hoped, for ordinary purposes of identification. The Appendices have entailed much labour, and errors must alm,ost inevitably creep into a book containing thousands of names and dates; for these and all other shortcomings I ask indulgence. In every case the ascription given by the owner has been retained. It only remains for me to repeat my thanks to the owners of the numerous and valuable portraits which have been le7it to me, and to say that without their generous aid the work wotild never have been attempted.

  • THE POWER of BEAUTY in RESTORATION ENGLAND Dr
    THE POWER OF BEAUTY IN RESTORATION ENGLAND Dr. Laurence Shafe [email protected] THE WINDSOR BEAUTIES www.shafe.uk • It is 1660, the English Civil War is over and the experiment with the Commonwealth has left the country disorientated. When Charles II was invited back to England as King he brought new French styles and sexual conduct with him. In particular, he introduced the French idea of the publically accepted mistress. Beautiful women who could catch the King’s eye and become his mistress found that this brought great wealth, titles and power. Some historians think their power has been exaggerated but everyone agrees they could influence appointments at Court and at least proposition the King for political change. • The new freedoms introduced by the Reformation Court spread through society. Women could appear on stage for the first time, write books and Margaret Cavendish was the first British scientist. However, it was a totally male dominated society and so these heroic women had to fight against established norms and laws. Notes • The Restoration followed a turbulent twenty years that included three English Civil Wars (1642-46, 1648-9 and 1649-51), the execution of Charles I in 1649, the Commonwealth of England (1649-53) and the Protectorate (1653-59) under Oliver Cromwell’s (1599-1658) personal rule. • Following the Restoration of the Stuarts, a small number of court mistresses and beauties are renowned for their influence over Charles II and his courtiers. They were immortalised by Sir Peter Lely as the ‘Windsor Beauties’. Today, I will talk about Charles II and his mistresses, Peter Lely and those portraits as well as another set of portraits known as the ‘Hampton Court Beauties’ which were painted by Godfrey Kneller (1646-1723) during the reign of William III and Mary II.

  • The Opening of the Atlantic World: England's
    THE OPENING OF THE ATLANTIC WORLD: ENGLAND’S TRANSATLANTIC INTERESTS DURING THE REIGN OF HENRY VIII By LYDIA TOWNS DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Texas at Arlington May, 2019 Arlington, Texas Supervising Committee: Imre Demhardt, Supervising Professor John Garrigus Kathryne Beebe Alan Gallay ABSTRACT THE OPENING OF THE ATLANTIC WORLD: ENGLAND’S TRANSATLANTIC INTERESTS DURING THE REIGN OF HENRY VIII Lydia Towns, Ph.D. The University of Texas at Arlington, 2019 Supervising Professor: Imre Demhardt This dissertation explores the birth of the English Atlantic by looking at English activities and discussions of the Atlantic world from roughly 1481-1560. Rather than being disinterested in exploration during the reign of Henry VIII, this dissertation proves that the English were aware of what was happening in the Atlantic world through the transnational flow of information, imagined the potentials of the New World for both trade and colonization, and actively participated in the opening of transatlantic trade through transnational networks. To do this, the entirety of the Atlantic, all four continents, are considered and the English activity there analyzed. This dissertation uses a variety of methods, examining cartographic and literary interpretations and representations of the New World, familial ties, merchant networks, voyages of exploration and political and diplomatic material to explore my subject across the social strata of England, giving equal weight to common merchants’ and scholars’ perceptions of the Atlantic as I do to Henry VIII’s court. Through these varied methods, this dissertation proves that the creation of the British Atlantic was not state sponsored, like the Spanish Atlantic, but a transnational space inhabited and expanded by merchants, adventurers and the scholars who created imagined spaces for the English.

    Introduction: Female friendship, community and retreat Friendship still has been design‘d, The Support of Human-kind; The safe Delight, the useful Bliss, The next World‘s Happiness, and this. Give then, O indulgent Fate! Give a Friend in that Retreat (Tho‘ withdrawn from all the rest) Still a Clue, to reach my Breast. Let a Friend be still convey‘d Thro‘ those Windings, and that Shade! Where, may I remain secure, Waste, in humble Joys and pure, A Life, that can no Envy yield; Want of Affluence my Shield.1 Anne Finch’s “The Petition for an Absolute Retreat” is one of a number of verses by early modern women which engage with the poetic traditions of friendship and the pastoral.2 Finch employed the imagery and language of the pastoral to shape a convivial but protected space of retreat. The key to achieving the sanctity of such a space is virtuous friendship, which Finch implies is both enabled by and enabling of pastoral retirement. Finch’s retreat is not an absolute retirement; she calls for “a Friend in that Retreat / (Tho’ withdrawn from all the rest)” to share in the “humble Joys and pure” of the pastoral. Friendship is “design’d [as] the Support of Human-kind”, a divine gift to ease the burden of human reason and passion. The cause of “the next World’s Happiness, and this”, 1 Anne Finch, “The Petition for an Absolute Retreat” in Miscellany Poems, on Several Occasions, printed for J.B. and sold by Benj.

Intriguingly, Robinson’s final stage appearance was as the cross-dressing heroine of The Miniature Picture (1781), a three-act comedy penned by writer and socialite Lady Elizabeth Craven, later Baroness Craven and Margravine of Brandenburg-Ansbach.
