✨Special Collections Highlight✨

👑Have you ever wondered what the oldest artifact in the library is? We have a portrait of Queen Charlotte, which she commissioned herself as a gift for her Governess, Lady Charlotte Finch, and gifted to her in 1765.

🖼️This portrait of Queen Charlotte (1744-1818), born Princess Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, is rendered in oil on canvas 32” x 37.25”. A legend attached to the base of the frame reads, “Jan. 13th, 1765, Their Majesties gave me these Pictures whole length in oyle in miniature [sic] size, Extract from Diary of Lady Charlotte Finch.” The inscribed date likely reflects the date that the portrait was bequeathed; the exact date of creation is unknown. Lady Charlotte Finch (née Fermor, 1725-1813) was governess to the children of King George III and Queen Charlotte from 1762-1793.

📝An undated, unsubstantiated typewritten note, author unknown, found in the Queens University institutional archives states that Allan Ramsay (1713-1784) painted this miniature portrait of Queen Charlotte. However, it is the professional opinion of Dr. Matthew Craske (Oxford Brookes University, Oxford, UK) that this portrait was painted by the artist Johann Zoffany (1733-1910). Dr. Craske is a renowned art historian, author, and art advisor to the Church of England Diocese of Oxford. According to Dr. Craske, Johan Zoffany and Allan Ramsay were both engaged regularly by Queen Charlotte and King George. Zoffany, however, had a direct relationship with the young Queen. Also, aside from the two authors’ stylistic differences, Dr. Craske asserts that Ramsay did not paint in miniature.
