Benjamin Robert Haydon. Part 4.

The sad ending to life. In the previous blog I told you about Benjamin Haydon’s trip to Paris with his friend David Wilkie.   The journey began at the end of May 1814 when the pair were able to take advantage of the ending of hostilities between England and France.  Whilst in the French capital the two artists spent time at the Louvre  and see the art collections gathered by Napoleon from across…

Why America Isn’t Dominant In Swimming Any More

In the Montreal Olympics in 1976 the only non-American male swimmer standing on the top of the podium was the late David Wilkie. On the women’s side, the only gold by an American was a relay. This disparity was created by America’s success. Wilkie was a British swimmer and the champion in the 200m breaststroke in 1976. America still was the dominant force in the world for men. The writing was…

David Wilkie -(1785-1841) British painter

An exceptional self-portrait painted when David Wilkie was 20 years of age; most likely made as he set out from Edinburgh to London in 1805. He was patronised by the Prince Regent and was made painter to King William IV who knighted him in 1836.

A Ghost Story for Christmas: A View from a Hill (BBC, 2005)

"Who's Baxter?"

"He was a watchmaker down in the village. Well before my time, of course. Fancied himself an archaeologist, like yourself."

"Well... I am an archaeologist. Actually, I'm a doctor."

"I'll have to get you to take a look at my feet."

First of all, I would like to thank you all for this amazing year! It's been a pleasure meeting you all and I'm beyond thankful for your support.

Spread among 13 occupied and historic royal residences in the United Kingdom, the collection is owned by King Charles III and overseen by the Royal Collection Trust. The British monarch owns some of the collection in right of the Crown and some as a private individual. It is made up of over one million objects, including 7,000 paintings, over 150,000 works on paper, this including 30,000 watercolours and drawings, and about 450,000 photographs, as well as around 700,000 works of art, including tapestries, furniture, ceramics, textiles, carriages, weapons, armour, jewellery, clocks, musical instruments, tableware, plants, manuscripts, books, and sculptures.

Some of the buildings which house the collection, such as Hampton Court Palace, are open to the public and not lived in by the Royal Family, whilst others, such as Windsor Castle, Kensington Palace and the most remarkable of them, Buckingham Palace are both residences and open to the public.

About 3,000 objects are on loan to museums throughout the world, and many others are lent on a temporary basis to exhibitions.
