I send you copies of two letters from La Trappe... all our sisters will be glad to know something of the death of that holy abbot;... and I must say that I read and re-read the letters with pleasure, especially the portions which prove the saintly and tender affection that admirable man had for us; when I see you I shall show you the things mentioned in the letters, and which are very precious and venerable to me.... I was grieved at first on hearing of his death, but I quickly consoled myself with the thought of his happiness, and the hope of experiencing in myself the effect of his prayers, for I am sure he does not forget us...." Charles ii of Spain had, by his will, nominated the Duke of Anjou as his successor, who was now proclaimed with the title of Philip V, an event, writes Rizzini, which will make a great noise, in England also, considering that the whole monarchy of Spain will be vested in a French Prince.1 The King and Queen of England went to Versailles to congratulate the monarch elect, whose advent seemed not without promise to their own cause, and the Memoirs of the Baron de Breteuil describe how the two princes, meeting at the door of the presence-chamber with all the rigidity of ceremony 1 The Emperor immediately protested, prepared to attack Lombardy, and proclaimed his second son, the Archduke Charles, under the title of Charles iii, opening the War of the Spanish Succession, which was to endure with varying fortunes until the peace of Utrecht. 1700 dear to them both, the Queen cried: --" Embrassez-vous, done!" and advancing to the Duke...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This royal biography of the 17th century princess and mother of King George II recounts an epic tale of privilege, passion, scandal, and disgrace. When Sophia Dorothea of Celle married her first cousin, the future King George I, she was an unhappy bride. Filled with dreams of romance and privilege, she hated the groom she called “pig snout” and wept at news of her engagement. When she arrived in the austere court of Hanover, the vibrant young princess found herself ignored and unwanted—while her husband openly gallivanted with his mistress. Then Sophia Dorothea plunged into a dangerous affair with the dashing soldier Count Phillip Christoph von Königsmarck, a man as celebrated for his looks as his bravery. When he and Sophia Dorothea fell in love, they were dicing with death. Watched by a scheming countess who had ambitions of her own, it was only a matter of time before scandal gripped the House of Hanover. In the end, Sophia Dorothea was divorced, disgraced, and locked away in a gilded cage for 30 years—whilst her lover faced an even darker fate.

Download or read book Pets in Portraits written by Robin Gibson and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pets tell something about their owners, whether they are bought to make a fashion statement, as child substitutes or as an expression of unconditional love between two sentient beings. So remarked Robin Gibson, the author of this book, on its first publication in 1998. It is about the various animals that appear in portraits in the National Portrait Gallery, but it is also about the owners of the animals w ho commissioned the portraits. The association of the subject or indeed the artist of a portrait with an identifiable pet immediately adds a further dimension to our understanding of the characterisation. For example, in a self-portrait by Hogarth there is a pug probably painted over by the artist and visible only under X-ray relieving itself on a pile of old master paintings. A succinct comment, Gibson writes, on those collectors who preferred second-rate foreign imports to contemporary works by British artists. From the Elizabethan soldier and diplomat Sir Henry Unton to the children of King Charles I; from the little terrier that records Lady Caroline Lambs first extra-marital affair to Queen Victoria's dogs, photographed with her Ghillie John Brown; from the extraordinary images of ballet dancer Anna Pavlova and her pet swan to the poet and critic Edith Sitwell and her favourite cat, this book charts the British love-affair with the domestic pet.
