Sir John Dinely Baronet.
W. Hopkins 1809.
Etching. 175 x 230mm very large margins. Foxing in margin.
John Dineley-Goodere (1729-1809), famous eccentric, wearing wig and bicorn. His father, Samuel Goodere, was convicted and hanged for the murder of his elder brother Sir John Dineley Goodere, 2nd Baronet in 1741. His older twin brother inherited the title, but died insane in 1761 aged 32. John wasted what money was left in the estate and, being nearly destitute, was given the pension and residence of a poor knight of Windsor (within the castle) through the intervention of Lord North. He spent the rest of his life trying to marry into money, randomly handing out marriage proposals to women he saw in the street.
