EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting steel engraving, created by H. Robinson after an illustration by Alfred Edward Chalon, showcases the captivating portrait of Augusta Georgina Frederica Fitzclarence, the illegitimate daughter of Lord Frederic Fitzclarence, who was in turn the illegitimate son of King William IV. Born in the early 19th century, Augusta is depicted in the portrait as a young girl, with her golden ringlets cascading down her shoulders and secured with delicate ribbons. Her off-the-shoulder dress, tied with a sash, adds to her youthful charm. In her hands, she cradles a King Charles spaniel, seated comfortably on a cushion atop a table. Augusta was one of several children born to Lord Frederic Fitzclarence, who also fathered Daniel Maclise, Sarah Elizabeth Copley, Susannah, Sophia, and others. Her siblings included John, 1st Baron Lyndhurst, who went on to become a prominent figure in British politics. The portrait, originally published in Charles Heath's "Portraits of the Children of the Nobility," offers a glimpse into the lives of the aristocratic children of the Victorian era. The intricately detailed engraving captures the essence of Augusta's playful and elegant demeanor, as she poses with her beloved pet. The presence of a parrot in the background adds an air of exoticism and further emphasizes the opulence of her upbringing. This portrait is a testament to the beauty and charm of Augusta Georgina Frederica Fitzclarence and the privileged world in which she lived.
