Downloaded On 2021/09/28 21:58:31 -0400 Working Mothers on the Romantic Stage Sarah Siddons and Mary Robinson Ellen Malenas Ledoux 1 March 2013 A smooth black band drawn over an impossibly white neck, a luminous bust barely concealed under fashionable dishabillé, powdered locks set off by a black hat profuse with feathers--these focal points, and many others, are common to two of the Romantic-era’s most famous celebrity portraits: Sir Joshua Reynolds’s “Mrs. Mary Robinson” (1782) and Thomas Gainsborough’s “Sarah Siddons” (1785). (See figure 1.) Despite both drawing on modish iconography in their choice of composition, pose, and costume, Reynolds and Gainsborough manage to create disparate tones. Siddons awes as a noble matron, whereas Robinson oozes sexuality with a “come hither” stare. The paintings’ contrasting tones reflect and promulgate the popular perceptions of these two Romantic-era actresses from the playhouse and the media. In the early 1780s Siddons was routinely referred to as a “queen” or a “goddess,” whereas Robinson was unceremoniously maligned by her detractors as a “whore.”1 Current scholarship on Siddons and Robinson devotes considerable attention to how these women’s semi-private sexual lives had major influence over their respective characterizations.

  • British Humour Satirical Prints of the Eighteenth and Nineteenth Centuries
    British Humour Satirical Prints of the Eighteenth and Nineteenth Centuries Comics and caricatures were born in eighteenth-century Europe. While the Enlightenment8 gave rise to a culture of criticism, the bolder art of ridicule can be credited to innovative artists responding to great social changes of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. This exhibition focuses on three generations of British satirists pioneering this new form: William Hogarth, James Gillray and Thomas Rowlandson, and George Cruikshank. Hogarth, the “grandfather of the political cartoon,” lampooned the mores and behaviors of the ruling class, but no class, station, or profession was above his reproach. Following his example, Gillray and Rowlandson became thorns in the sides of aristocratic and public leaders by styling a new form of caricature with exaggerated features and proportions. Cruikshank, from a family of satirists, was able to imitate the style of Gillray so closely that Gillray’s publisher, Hannah Humphrey, hired him to complete projects the older artist left unfinished, and he was hailed in his lifetime as a “Modern Hogarth.” But comedy is serious business, because it speaks truth to power. These artists were at turns threatened, bullied, and bribed; they became part of the very debates they depicted and derided. Each succeeded because they created and then fulfilled the demands of a highly engaged citizenry, which is part of any democratic society valuing freedom of debate and expression. Modern counterparts, from editorial cartoons to The Daily Show, continue their tradition. William Hogarth (British, 1697–1764) The complete series Marriage à la Mode, 1745 Etching and engraving on paper Prints made by Gérard Jean-Baptiste Scotin II Gift of Museum Associates (2008.16.1-6) Hogarth’s Marriage à la Mode was his first series of satirical images that focused on elite British society.

  • House of Lords Library: Gillray Collection
    Library: Special Collections House of Lords Library: Gillray Collection The House of Lords Library Gillray collection was acquired in 1899 as a bequest from Sir William Augustus Fraser (1826–1898). The collection consists of eleven folio volumes, retaining Fraser’s fine bindings: half red morocco with elaborate gold tooling on the spines. Ownership bookplates on the verso of the front boards show Fraser’s coat of arms and some of the prints bear his “cinquefoil in sunburst” collector’s mark. The volumes are made up of leaves of blue paper, on to which the prints are pasted. Perhaps surprisingly, given the age of the paper and adhesive, there is no evident damage to the prints. Due to the prints being stored within volumes, light damage has been minimised and the colour is still very vibrant. The collection includes a few caricatures by other artists (such as Thomas Rowlandson) but the majority are by Gillray. It is possible that the prints by other artists were mistakenly attributed to Gillray by Fraser. Where Fraser lacked a particular print he pasted a marker at the relevant chronological point in the volume, noting the work he still sought. These markers have been retained in the collection and are listed in the Catalogue. The collection includes some early states of prints, such as Britania in French Stays and a few prints that are not held in the British Museum’s extensive collection. For example, Grattan Addresses the Mob is listed in Dorothy George’s Catalogue as part of the House of Lords Library’s collection only.1 Volume I includes a mezzotint portrait of the author by Charles Turner, and two manuscript letters written by Gillray; one undated and addressed to the artist Benjamin West; the other dated 1797 and addressed to the publisher John Wright.

    Drawing after the Antique at the British Museum Supplementary Materials: Biographies of Students Admitted to Draw in the Townley Gallery, British Museum, with Facsimiles of the Gallery Register Pages (1809 – 1817) Essay by Martin Myrone Contents Facsimile, Transcription and Biographies • Page 1 • Page 2 • Page 3 • Page 4 • Page 5 • Page 6 • Page 7 Sources and Abbreviations • Manuscript Sources • Abbreviations for Online Resources • Further Online Resources • Abbreviations for Printed Sources • Further Printed Sources 1 of 120 Jan. 14 Mr Ralph Irvine, no.8 Gt. Howland St. [recommended by] Mr Planta/ 6 months This is probably intended for the Scottish landscape painter Hugh Irvine (1782– 1829), who exhibited from 8 Howland Street in 1809. “This young gentleman, at an early period of life, manifested a strong inclination for the study of art, and for several years his application has been unremitting. For some time he was a pupil of Mr Reinagle of London, whose merit as an artist is well known; and he has long been a close student in landscape afer Nature” (Thom, History of Aberdeen, 1: 198). He was the third son of Alexander Irvine, 18th laird of Drum, Aberdeenshire (1754–1844), and his wife Jean (Forbes; d.1786). His uncle was the artist and art dealer James Irvine (1757–1831). Alexander Irvine had four sons and a daughter; Alexander (b.1777), Charles (b.1780), Hugh, Francis, and daughter Christian. There is no record of a Ralph Irvine among the Irvines of Drum (Wimberley, Short Account), nor was there a Royal Academy student or exhibiting or listed artist of this name, so this was surely a clerical error or misunderstanding.

I am immensely grateful to Adriana Craciun for her continued faith in my project and in my capacity to meet her ambitious expectations. She has made me a better writer and a more sophisticated thinker. I would also like to express my gratitude to Malcolm Baker, who has patiently born with my literary propensities through my examination of art historical materials. His dedicated guidance has enabled me to discuss such materials in each chapter with the art historical rigor they deserve. The interdisciplinary impetus of my project would not have been possible without him. And I would like to thank George Haggerty, who has been there for me since the first day of my graduate career and continues to inspire me with his unabating love for eighteenth- century literature. The reading group he organized for me and my friend, Rebecca Addicks-Salerno, was instrumental in the evolution of my project. Our invaluable conversations ensured that my dissertation was not a lonely and isolated process but the product of an eighteenth-century-salon-like culture of enjoyable intellectual exchange.
