Butler Esq; Gifted to Edward Croft-Murray and his first wife Giovanna Zaffi on their marriage in 1946; From the collection of Edward Croft-Murray (1907-1980) Literature: H.C. Robbins Landon, Handel and his World (Weidenfeld and Nicolson, 1984), p.76 (illustrated in colour) Heidegger was a central figure in the London theatre world and a popular figure at court for forty years. Manager of the Queen's (subsequently King's) theatre, Haymarket, London, he was known as Handel's impresario and worked very closely with the composer from 1713 to the late 1730s. Heidegger also ran masquerades or balls or ridottoes at the Haymarket theatre on non-opera nights and additionally was a party or events contractor. His biggest job was the coronation of George II in 1727, subsequently becoming friends with the monarch and his 'Master of the Revels'. Heidegger's last years were spent living at No. 4 Maids of Honour Row, Richmond where in 1745 he commissioned Antonio Jolli to decorate the entrance hall. This is the same house where Edward Croft-Murray lived. Jean-Baptiste Van Loo was in England from 1737 to 1742; his portrait of Heidegger was engraved by John Faber Jnr. (c.1695-1756) and first published in 1742. The National Portrait Gallery and British Museum hold copies. The National Portrait Gallery, London has previously proposed an attribution to Nathaniel Hone (1718-1784) for this work.
