[Philip Stanhope, Earl of Chesterfield]
[by Thomas Worlidge after Peter Lely]
Etching, platemark 80 x 55mm (3¼ x 2¼"). Thread margins; tipped into album sheet. Proof before letters.
Portrait of Philip Stanhope, second earl of Chesterfield (1633–1714), courtier and politician, etched by Thomas Worlidge (1700-66) after the portrait by Peter Lely (Melbourne Hall, Derbyshire). Under the Protectorate Chesterfield was involved in royalist plots but 'perceived as too far engaged with his mistresses to be a major influence' (DNB). After the Restoration he was made lord chamberlain to Catherine of Braganza, and later chief justice. Chesterfield was against declaring William and Mary king and queen after 1688, and subsequently refused all offers of employment from William although he remained active in local politics. One of only two engraved likenesses recorded by O'Donoghue. The printmaker Thomas Worlidge also etched his second wife Elizabeth.

Aquatint. 216 x 280mm. 8½ x 11". Cut.
Stanton Harcourt, a village and civil parish in Oxfordshire. The village is mentioned in the Domesday Book, and is probably named after the prehistoric stone circle known as the Devil's Quoits. An early unfortified Manor House, built to house the Harcourt family in the late 14th century; however most of the house was dismantled to use as foundations for Nuneham Courtney in 1756. One of the surviving parts is the medieval kitchen with its octagonal roof seen here on the left. The kitchen is open to the rafters, and smoke from the open fire would gather in the conical roof space, ventilated by louvers in the base of the roof.

Pope's Tower in the grounds of Harcourt House, in the village of Stanton Harcourt, Oxfordshire. Built around 1470, the tower (now Grade I listed) acquired its name after the poet Alexander Pope stayed there in 1717-8 and translated the fifth volume of Homer's 'Iliad' there. Plate from the 'Spring Gardens Sketch Book' (8 vols., 1870-90). The architect Sir George Gilbert Scott (1811-78) had his office at Spring Gardens, near Trafalgar Square in London, from 1838 onwards. The publication of the 'Sketch Book' functioned as a form of advertising to promote the gifts of Scott's practice, with plates designed by his pupils and apprentices.

An early unfortified Manor House, built to house the Harcourt family in the late 14th century; however most of the house was dismantled to use as foundations for Nuneham Courtney in 1756. One of the surviving parts is the medieval kitchen with its octagonal roof seen here on the left. The kitchen is open to the rafters, and smoke from the open fire would gather in the conical roof space, ventilated by louvers in the base of the roof. The artist on these engraved views is as family member. George Simon, Viscount Nuneham, later second earl Harcourt (1736 - 1809), was taught by Paul Sandby (1725 - 1809), and was a member of the Society of Dilettanti. The manor has remained in the Harcourt family to the present day.

Stanzas for Music.-From the Hebrew. Woman's Love. Set me a seal upon they heart, A signet ring upon thy arm, From which you will, oh! never part, To cause my ardent love alarm...Invitation to the Country. I'll point thee where the mountain glows With hues or early dawn, And where the opening valley shews...All in out gates they wait for you, To greet thee, my adored.
