The first attempt on Queen Victoria's life, showing the pregnant monarch and her husband travelling on Constitution Hill in a phæton, the Wellington Arch in the background, and Edward Oxford with his pistol raised. After firing two shots he was seized by onlookers. He was charged with treason, but, as no bullets could be found at the scene, it could not be proved his pistols had more than powder in them. He was found 'not guilty by reason of insanity' and sent to Bethlem asylum, where he was a model prisoner for nearly quarter of a century. In 1864 he was transferred to Broadmoor, still a model prisoner, and in 1867 it was decided to release him on the proviso he left the country and never returned. He left for Australia, where he changed his name to John Freeman, married, served as a churchwarden in Melbourne and published a book called Lights and Shadows of Melbourne Life in 1888. He died in 1900. Australian interest.

Imagined view along River Thames at Westminster, a site now occupied by the Victoria Embankment.

George Lamb, Lady Grantham, Lord Liverpool, Mr. Dalgleish, and the Almonry Office. Colonel (later General Sir Frederick) Trench originated the idea of the Thames Embankment, for which a bill was (unsuccessfully) presented to Parliament in 1825. Revived, work on the Embankment started in 1864, although to a different design than is shown here. Drawn by Thomas Mann Baynes, the panorama shows the riverside as it appeared in 1825, from Westminster to London Bridge, with Trench's proposed embankment running from Whitehall to Blackfriars Bridge, with the skyline of London shown correctly above; this would have been one of nine lithographic sheets.

December 16 1854
Ms, sheet 180 x 115mm (7 x 4½"). Glued to backing sheet.
Victor, prince of Hohenlohe-Langenburg (1833-91), naval officer and sculptor, was the daughter of Princess Victoria of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld (later the duchess of Kent), half-sister to Queen Victoria. In 1848, through the interest of Queen Victoria, he entered the British navy as a midshipman, and this dedication shows the monarch's delight at Prince Victor's promotion to Lieutenant six years later. Prince Victor was forced to retire from the navy in 1866 due to repeated illness; he then devoted himself to a second career as a sculptor, in which capacity his main achievement was a large statue of Alfred the Great for the market place at Wantage, Oxfordshire.

Baron de Vidil, Alfred Vidil, was the son of a glove-maker at Nancy in France. He came to England around 1830 and was in the employment of a wholesale glove warehouse in Bread-street, Cheapside. He managed to induce Miss Jackson to marry him, the daughter of Mr. Jackson, of Chapel-street, Grosvenor Place. Her father was a man of considerable wealth, but refused to acknowledge her marriage to Vidil, and therefore on the birth of their son, he relented so far as to leave her the sum of £30,000 away from her husband and eventually settled on their son. Following the death of Mr Jackson and later Miss Jackson, Vidil started to loose wealth and could only survive on that of his son. He became embarrassed by his circumstances that he planned and attempted to execute the horrible crime of murdering his only son.

Francisco Vieira de Matos (1765-1805), who choose the artistic name of Vieira Portuense, was a Portuguese painter, one of the introducers of Neoclassicism in Portuguese painting. He was, in the neoclassical style, one of the two great Portuguese painters of his generation, with Domingos Sequeira. He first studied in Lisbon, later moving to Rome. He travelled through Italy, Germany, Austria and England, before returning to Portugal, in 1800. He met Swiss painter Angelika Kauffmann, from who he seems to have received influences. He seems to anticipate some motives of the romantic painting, in several of his historical paintings. He contracted tuberculosis, and moved to Madeira, were he died, aged only 39.

A view d'optique of Peterskirche (St. Peter's Church) in Vienna. Vues d’optique are hand-colored etchings and engravings intended to be viewed through a convex lens.
