Georgian era artist and #caricaturist Thomas Rowlandson captured the raucous mood of these parties with vivid, sometimes critical watercolors, as seen in `A Gaming Table At Devonshire House, London: Georgiana, Duchess Of Devonshire, Harriet, Lady Duncannon, The Prince Of Wales And Others Gambling.’ The work depicts a game of faro, a 17th-century French card game that enjoyed parallel popularity to poker. The Duchess and her sister are drawn wearing hats, one throwing dice, the other searching for more money from her purse. To the left, a young lady has run out of money and is being offered a loan by a young officer, while to the right, two gentlemen keenly await the fall of the dice. As the title suggests, one of the gentlemen present is the Prince of Wales. In the center, a woman appears to have dozed off at the table (or perhaps she's merely practicing her poker face). A highlight of Inspired by Chatsworth: a Selling Exhibition in New York, which is free and open to the public through 13 September. #SothebysMasters #theduchess #Chatsworth #GeorgianaCavendish #duchessofdevonshire」8月4日 2時25分
