George William, Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg (1624-1705).

Eventually the occupation was legitimised by Emperor Charles VI, when George William's second successor, George II, king of Great Britain, was formally given Saxe-Lauenberg. George William was the father of Sophia Dorothea of Celle, wife of George I of Great Britain.

[Anon., c1872.]
Watercolour with attached woodcut from 'Punch, or the London Charivari', sheet 600 x 470mm (23½ x 18½"). On paper with Whatman 1820 watermark.
In around 1784 an equestian statue of George I, previously at Canons in Middlesex, was moved to Leicester Square. As the condition of the square deteriorated so did that of the statue. In 1866 practical jokers painted the horse with spots, placed a dunce's hat (from the nearby Alhambra Theatre) on the monarch's head, and lodged a broomstick in the crook of his arm. The statue was sold for £16 in 1872 and removed from the square.
