Charles Greville, 1840 - A Captivating Portrait of a British Diarist and Cricket Enthusiast
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This striking black and white lithograph captures the essence of Charles Cavendish Fulke Greville, a prominent figure in 19th century Britain. Created by Richard James Lane in 1840, this portrait showcases Greville's distinguished features and charismatic presence. Greville was not only known for his role as Clerk of the Privy Council but also for his passion for cricket. An amateur cricketer himself, he found solace on the field amidst his busy government job. This image perfectly encapsulates his love for both sports and public service. The print is part of "Portraits by Count D'Orsay" an album assembled by Lady Georgiana Codrington during the 1850s. Lady Codrington carefully curated this collection to capture influential individuals from various walks of life, highlighting their contributions to society. Charles Greville's gaze reflects intelligence and determination while hinting at a deeper introspection within him. The artist skillfully portrays every detail with precision, emphasizing Greville's refined taste in fashion and style. As we admire this portrait today, it serves as a testament to Charles Greville's legacy as an author, diarist, and dedicated public servant. It offers us a glimpse into the vibrant world of 19th-century Britain while honoring one man who left an indelible mark on history through both his professional achievements and personal passions.
