Little is known about Page’s life, but the freshness of his approach impressed me, as did his evident pleasure in drawing ruins. His relationship with his patron and probable pupil, Mary Hamilton Campbell, Lady Ruthven, an amateur archaeologist who appears to have taken him to Greece, was previously unknown, as was Page’s involvement with her brother William Campbell, with whom he travelled to Turkey. There is more work to be done on Page, but in the meantime I hope this catalogue will add a little to our understanding of the Enlightenment fascination with classical Greece. My own longstanding interest in the Ottoman period remains undimmed, and it has been a pleasure to revisit it.

  • My Lady Castlemaine
    3XCY LjlDY CASTLEMJIINE <J c& Lady Castlemaine Being a Life of {Barbara 'Uilliers Countess of Castlemaine, afterwards Duchess of Cleveland :: By Philip W Sergeant, B.jl., Author of "The Empress Josephine, Napoleon's Enchantress," "'She Courtships of Catherine the Great," &c. With 19 Illustrations including a Photogravure Frontispiece DANA ESTES & CO. BOSTON Printed in Great Britain 5134844 PREFACE TT may perhaps be maintained that, if Barbara Villiers, Countess of Castlemaine and Duchess of Cleveland, has not been written about in many books, it is for a good and sufficient reason, that she is not worth writing about. That is not an argument to be lightly decided. But certainly less interesting women have been the subjects of numerous books, worse women, less influential and less beautiful than this lady of the dark auburn hair and deep blue eyes. We know that Mr. G. K. Chesterton says that Charles II attracts him morally. (His words are " attracts us," but this must be the semi-editorial " we.") If King Charles can attract morally Mr. Chesterton, may not his favourite attract others ? Or let us be repelled, and as we view the lady acting " her part at Whitehall let us exclaim, How differ- ent from the Court of ... good King William III," if we like. Undoubtedly the career of Barbara Villiers furnishes a picture of one side at least of life in the Caroline of the life of unfalter- period ; pleasure unrestrained, ing unless through lack of cash and unrepentant. For Barbara did not die, like her great rival Louise de " Keroualle (according to Saint-Simon), very old, V 2082433 vi PREFACE " and like very penitent, very poor ; or, another rival, Hortense Mancini (according to Saint-Evre- " mond), seriously, with Christian indifference toward life." On the principle bumani nil a me alienum puto even the Duchess of Cleveland cannot be con- sidered of attention as unworthy ; but, being more extreme in type, therefore more interesting than the competing beauties of her day.

  • Afternoon Tea 1840
    AFTERNOON TEA 1840 Anna Maria Russell, Duchess of Bedford, a lifelong friend of Queen Victoria and a Lady of the Bedchamber (lady-in-waiting) between 1837 and 1841, was also the originator of "Afternoon Tea". An extra meal called "luncheon" had been created to fill the midday gap between breakfast and dinner, but as this new meal was very light, the long afternoon with no refreshment left the Duchess and others feeling hungry. The Duchess found a light refreshment of tea and small cakes or sandwiches counteracted that late afternoon "sinking feeling" and soon began inviting her friends to join her at Woburn Abbey for this repast. Thus the "ritual" of afternoon tea quickly became an established and convivial repast in many middle and upper class households. The Duchess continued this custom when she returned to her London residence, sending cards to her friends asking them to join her for "tea". The practice of inviting friends to visit for tea in the afternoon was quickly picked up by other social hostesses. Queen Victoria is reported to have quickly taken to this new custom, hosting daily formal dress afternoon tea parties, which always ended before 7pm in order to give everyone time to change and be ready for dinner at 9pm. An oft quoted but quite possibly apocryphal story avowed that "Queen Victoria, a notorious tea fanatic, was given to flinging her tea cup across the room if she found the tea not up to her standards”! Queen Victoria's favourite tea is recorded as Earl Grey tea, a China black tea infused with Oil of Bergamot, and served with her favourite shortbread biscuits.
