Credit / Mention de source : Library and Archives Canada, C-131638 / Bibliothèque et Archives Canada, C-131638 Description / Descriptions : Katherine Jane Balfour (ca. 1814-1864) the daughter of Lieutenant-General Balfour of Balbirnie, Fifeshire, Scotland, married the only son of Edward Ellice on July 15, 1834. The Ellice household of the seigneury of Beauharnois was taken over by rebels on November 4, 1838, and Katherine was held captive for six days. An artist herself, she managed to sketch (as her diary describes them) the "picturesque ruffians" from a window, and a watercolour depicting this event is in the collection of the National Archives. She gave this (the most successful of the three miniature Ellice portraits) to her husband three years after their return to England, the inscribed date of 14 July 1841 being the eve of their wedding anniversary. / Katherine Jane Balfour (v. 1814-1864), la fille du lieutenant-général Balfour de Balbirnie, Fifeshire, Écosse, épousa le fils unique d'Edward Ellice le 15 juillet 1834. La maison Ellice de la seigneurie de Beauharnois fut prise par les rebelles le 4 novembre 1838, et Katherine fut gardée captive pendant six jours. Elle-même artiste, elle réussit à dessiner, à partir d'une fenêtre, les « ruffians pittoresques » (comme son journal les décrit); une aquarelle représentant cet incident est conservée dans la collection des Archives nationales. Elle donna cette miniature (la plus réussie des trois miniatures de la famille Ellice) à son mari trois ans après leur retour en Angleterre; la date inscrite est celle du 14 juillet 1841, soit la veille de leur anniversaire de mariage. |
