SIR FRANCIS CHANTREY (1781-1841) A CARVED MARBLE BUST OF LORD CASTLEREAGH, SECOND MARQUESS OF LONDONDERRY DATED 1828 Signed and dated 'CHANTREY, SC. 1828. LORD CASTLEREAGH 1821.' to reverse, on a circular marble socle inscribed 'CASTLEREAGH' 75cm high Provenance: Charles, 7th Marquess of Londonderry (1878-1949). Sotheby's London, Londonderry House sale, 16 Nov 1962, lot 29 (£15 to Lidley). In 1820 The Anglo-Irish statesman, diplomat and politician Robert Stewart, 2nd Marquess of Londonderry commissioned Chantrey "to make his bust for the price of 150 guineas". In March 1821 Harriet Arbuthnot, the social diarist and close friend of Castlereagh (her "dearest and best friend"), visited Chantrey's studio where she saw the unfinished work and wrote: "it will be wonderfully like and has just the beautiful expression of his countenance when he speaks". Shortly after this the finished bust was exhibited at the Royal Academy (1132), the first exhibition of one of his portraits of prominent Tory politicians "in the grand style". After Castlereagh's death in 1822, Chantrey went on to produce other versions of the portrait bust for friends and admirers of the late politician. In the Walpole Society analysis of the Chantrey ledgers, Alex Potts notes that ledger 208b records a version which was sent to Robert Peel in 1838 but which may well have been the example Chantrey executed earlier in 1828. It is further suggested that Peel's version could well be this lot which was formerly at Londonderry House. Further examples of this bust, some of which were probably studio copies, are now held in Haddo House, Stratfield Saye, the Yale Centre for British Art, the National Portrait Gallery and the Traveller's Club on Pall Mall. In 1828, George IV commissioned a version for his "Grand Corridor" at Windsor Castle (RCIN 35411 Chantrey Ledger 207a). For these subsequent versions it has been suggested that Chantrey and his studio worked from the plaster cast now in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford.
