EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite print depicts Charlotte, Duchess of Richmond (1791-1842), the beloved daughter of the 4th Duke of Gordon, and her husband, George Henry Lennox, the 4th Duke of Richmond, from 1806. The portrait, created in 1807, captures the young duchess in all her grace and elegance, dressed in the fashionable style of the time, with an air of refinement and poise. The duchess is shown holding a shield bearing the arms of Richmond, which include a red lion rampant and a gold unicorn, symbolizing the historic union of the houses of York and Lancaster. The crest above the shield displays a golden crown, further emphasizing her noble status. Her husband, Duke of Richmond, was a prominent figure in British politics and military, serving as the Master-General of the Ordnance from 1804 to 1806 and as a Privy Counsellor from 1812 to 1831. Charlotte, born as Lady Charlotte Gordon, was the eldest daughter of the 4th Duke of Gordon and his wife, Lady Elizabeth Gordon. She married Duke of Richmond in 1806, and their union produced ten children. The portrait, created in 1807, captures the young duchess in her prime, before she became a mother and took on the responsibilities of raising a large family. This beautiful print, with its intricate details and rich colors, is a testament to the artistic skill of the time and the enduring legacy of the noble families of the past. The ornate gold frame adds an elegant touch to the piece, making it a stunning addition to any collection of historical art or portraits. Overall, this print offers a glimpse into the opulent world of the British aristocracy in the early 19th century and the lives of the powerful and influential figures who shaped its history.
