A newly discovered first-hand manuscript account of the Coronation of King George IV on 11 July1821, as described by the royal jeweller John Bridge, present at the event, written on 25 July 1821 and signed at end by John Bridge, a very neatbut increasingly small and sometimes difficult hand, 2 pages with integral blank, laid paper, watermarked ‘John Hall, 1819’, 4to, discovered behinda framed and glazed mezzotint portrait of George Heriot (1563-1624), jeweller to King James I of England and VI of Scotland, by John and CharlesEsplens, after David Scougall, 1743, 355 x 235 mm, heavily browned and split along left and lower margins of plate impression with annotation atfoot, ‘The Personal Gift of His most Gracious Majesty King George IV. To John [Br]idge on the morning of the 11 July 1821 when He had the honorof finishing in trying on the rich Imperial Brilliant Crown which had been prepared for the Coronation and which was solely used at that augustCeremony, both in the Abbey, and Westminster Hall, on the 19 July 1821; His Majesty was graciously pleased to express His entire approbation ofthe Crown, Circlet, Sword, Belt and Plume, all of which had been Furnished for the occasion by Rundell, Bridge & Rundell’, signed by John Bridgeand dated 1821, the backing paper additionally annotated and signed by John Bridge, ‘The Gift of His Gracious Majesty King George the Fourth toJohn Bridge, 17 July 1821’ and lower down a note partially obscured by the frame saying that the print belongs to Mr Bridge and is to be framed,the print laid on to a wooden frame, contemporary gilt-moulded frame with cast royal gilt metal crown attached at head, 50 x 37.5 cm, glazedThe memorandum was recently discovered at the back of the print, when the owner removed the frame’s backing paper to check for any inscriptions. The twocolour-printed and embossed tickets for the Ceremony (21.5 x 16 cm) and the Banquet (19 x 13 cm) that Bridge was given are pasted to what remains of thesoiled and frayed backing paper, now separated from the frame. Both tickets are inscribed with their details to lower margin by Bridge and both are somewhatdust-soiled and each with a closed tear.A full transcript is available from the auctioneers. John Bridge (1755-1834), jeweller, was apprenticed to the jeweller William Rogers of Bath. In 1787, Philip Rundell invited Bridge to join him in a partnership,becoming the firm of Rundell & Bridge. Known by their employees as ‘Oil’ (Bridge) and ‘Vinegar’, they worked tirelessly to become world leaders. The firm wasappointed as one of the goldsmiths and jewellers to the King in 1797, holding the Royal Warrant until 1843. The Royal Goldsmiths served four monarchs: GeorgeIII, George IV, William IV and Victoria.An extraordinary and previously unknown first-hand account of King George IV’s coronation and his thoughtful and modest gift to his jeweller John Bridge. Theaccount confirms the historically held position that Queen Caroline, who had definitely not been invited, and did not have a ticket, tried to gate-crash the event. (1)
