Henri de la Tremoille (1598-1674) was the 3rd Duke of Thouars, 2nd Duke of La Tremoille and Prince of Talmond and Taranto. Despite his father's conversion to Protestantism during the French Wars of Religion, La Tremoille converted to Catholicism around the time that Cardinal Richelieu and Louis XIII suppressed the Huguenot rebellion at the Siege of La Rochelle in 1628. He was heir-general of Frederick IV of Naples and his first wife Anne of Savoy, and succeeded to the Cypriot claims to the title of King of Jerusalem when his father died.

On the accession of George I in 1714 he was deprived of the justice-ship, but from 1726 to 1730 he was Lord Privy Seal.

A faithful representation of the trial of her most gracious Majesti [sic] Caroline queen of england, in the house of lords 1820. [French translation to right.]
[Anon., French or Italian, n.d., c.1820.]
Large and extremely scarce lithograph, sheet 525 x 575mm. 20¾ x 22¾". Several fold and handling creases, some reinforced with old backing strips to verso. Some soiling and light staining, generally tatty extremities, with closed tears and filled chip to lower right corner.
Depiction of the 1820 trial for adultery of Queen Caroline of Brunswick (1768 – 1821), wife of George IV. A realistic view of the House of Lords receding in perspective to the Throne, above which is inset an oval bust portrait lettered ‘Bartolomo [sic] Bergami’, wearing four decorations. Members of the House and others assembled around a large table at centre, upon which sits ‘13’, the ‘Green Bag’. Lord Chancellor John Scott, 1st Earl of Eldon presiding in middle ground, at centre; Queen Caroline can be seen seated in foreground to right. Lettered below the image with key, in English and French, identifying numbered figures and points of interest within the composition. This seems to be a Continental copy of a British print. When Caroline of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel (1768 – 1821) arrived at St James's Palace the Prince of Wales came to visit her. After greeting her, he turned to the Earl of Malmesbury saying, 'Harris, I am not well. Pray get me a glass of brandy'. He then left the room. Caroline's comment to Malmesbury was , 'I find him very stout and by no means as handsome as his portrait'. The ill-matched pair were married on 8 April 1795 and it soon became clear that the Prince of Wales would not tolerate his wife's company unless he was drunk. The marriage was consummated and on 7 January 1796 a daughter, Charlotte, was born to the couple. By March, the proud parents were living separately and rarely spoke to each other. George's disastrous marriage to Caroline provided ample material for the caricaturists of the day. George was mocked for preferring his mistresses to his wife; Caroline received more sympathy but was rumoured to have a string of lovers and was easy to portray as a vulgar attention seeker. Tired of her husband's neglect, Caroline left England to tour Europe and in Italy met Bartolomeo Bergami who became her secretary and constant companion. The couple's relationship caused much scandal. See BM Satires 14004 for an anonymous cotton handkerchief of the same (English only) title.

She published widely, including children's books and volumes on educational methods, many of which continued to be reprinted after her death as she exerted a strong influence in the early nineteenth century.

Michel-Jean Cazabon (b.1813 d.1888) was the son of Martiniquan parents who settled in Trinidad in the late eighteenth century and were part of the Free Coloured/Free Black society of the Naparimas around San Fernando. Cazabon was educated first in England and then in Paris where he studied art. According to family legend Cazabon was a student of Delaroche (b.1797 d.1856). More precisely we know that he was a student of Michel-Martin Drolling (b.1789 d.1851), Jean-Antoine-Theodore Gudin (b.1802 d.1880) and Antoine Leon Morel-Fatio (b.1810 d.1871). Gudin was a marine painter and it is likely that Cazabon learnt printing from Morel-Fatio. A student in Paris from the late 1830's to about 1848, Cazabon followed closely the philosophy of the French Landscape Movement. He returned to Trinidad in 1848 and in 1851 produced a series of eighteen lithographs Views of Trinidad. In 1857 he published a second series, Album of Trinidad, and in 1860 contributed to two other series, Views of Demerara and Album Martiniquaise. Cazabon's œuvre is extensive; his work shows a wide knowledge of media - oils, watercolours, gouache, gesso, etc. Although he was primarily a watercolourist and landscape artist, both his formal and informal portraits are highly valued, and his illustrations for the newspapers of the day, of important historic significance.
