Francis Duke of Bedford
Drawn by J. Lonsdale from the Original Bust by J. Nollekens Esq.r R.A. Exhibited at the Royal Academy 1802, Engraved by L. Sailliar.
Published Jan.y 12 1802 by Charlotte Brydon No 4 Charing Cross
Very rare stipple, platemark 285 x 240mm (11¼ x 9½"). Small margins. Glued to backing sheet.
Francis Russell, fifth duke of Bedford (1765-1802), agriculturalist and politician. Bedford became known as a leading promoter of agricultural development. He was an original member of the board of agriculture set up in 1793, and the first president of the Smithfield Club in 1798, while he also instituted the annual agricultural fair at Woburn. Russell was also an ambitious urban developer, and used his 119 acres of land around London's West End to develop much of the Bloomsbury estate (including Bedford Square, Russell Square, and Bloomsbury Square). After Russell's death a statue was erected in Russell Square, showing Russell with one hand resting on a plough and the other holding ears of corn. Stipple after one of the three busts of Russell sculpted by Joseph Nollekens (1737-1823), whose many portrait busts make up a visual record of the personalities of late Georgian Britain.
