Description / Descriptions : Although called by some the "first gentleman of Europe" for his gracious manner, the future George IV (1762-1830) was in reality the antithesis to this, as one of Britain's more notorious and unpopular monarchs. The eldest son of King George III and Queen Charlotte, before ascending to the British throne in 1820, he had squandered large sums of money and had been involved in many scandals. The artist of this work was made Principal Painter to the Prince in 1800, and one year later, Principal Enamel Painter to George III, a post he retained under both George IV and William IV. An inscription with this miniature states that it was painted after an original portrait by Sir Thomas Lawrence, court painter to the King. The artist's works on ivory are rare, although it is known that he produced large quantities of enamels, mostly copies, for general sale. /

Même s'il fut appelé par certains le « premier gentilhomme d'Europe » en raison de ses manières agréables, le futur George IV (1762-1830) était en réalité tout le contraire; il fut l’un des monarques britanniques les plus impopulaires et les plus tristement célèbres. Fils aîné du roi George III et de la reine Charlotte, il avait gaspillé de fortes sommes d'argent avant de monter sur le trône en 1820, et avait été impliqué dans de nombreux scandales. Une inscription sur cette miniature indique qu'elle fut peinte d'après un portrait original exécuté par sir Thomas Lawrence, peintre de la cour du roi.
