EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting steel engraving, created by Henry Cook after an illustration by Alfred Edward Chalon, captures the innocence and charm of the children of Thomas Egerton, 2nd Earl of Wilton. The Earl, who was also Viscount Grey de Wilton and Baron Maltravers, is depicted here with his daughter, Lady Frances Diana Egerton, and his son, Charles John Egerton, 1st Viscount Sutton. Lady Frances Diana, with her ringlets cascading down her shoulders and her frilly dress adorned with lace and flowers, holds a doll in her arms, lost in thought as she cradles her toy. Her sister and brother, Charles, dressed in a suit and a feather bonnet, respectively, playfully engage with each other, their joy evident in their expressions. The children's portrait, which was published in Charles Heath's Portraits of the Children of the Nobility in 1838, offers a glimpse into the lives of the aristocratic Egerton family during the Victorian era. The intricately detailed steel engraving, produced by John Bostock and Heath, Robinson, captures the elegance and refinement of the time, with the children's plaited curls, ribbons, and bonnets adding to the overall charm of the image. The portrait of the Egerton children is a beautiful reminder of the innocence and joy of childhood, as well as a fascinating glimpse into the world of the Victorian aristocracy.
