The Dilettanti Society - A Gathering of Aristocratic Scholars and Connoisseurs
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing "The Dilettanti Society" engraved by Charles Turner between 1800-20. The image depicts a group of distinguished nobles and intellectuals seated around a table, engrossed in deep conversation and surrounded by artifacts from ancient Greece and Rome. Founded as a dining club in London in 1734, The Society of Dilettanti was more than just an exclusive gathering; it was an influential force behind the study and appreciation of classical art. This esteemed society consisted of prominent figures such as Lord Mulgrave, Lord Dundas, Kenneth Mackenzie, Earl of Seaforth, Hon Charles Greville, Charles Crowle, Duke of Leeds, Sir Joseph Banks - all passionate patrons who sponsored archaeological research into ancient Greek and Roman art. In this grand portrait filled with erudition and taste for antiquity, we witness the epitome of English aristocracy during the Regency era. Each member exudes intellectual prowess while sipping their beverages from elegant vases reminiscent of ancient times. Their collective knowledge is evident through their animated discussions about classical art forms. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from the Yale Center for British Art's Paul Mellon Collection in the USA, we are transported to a time when education went hand-in-hand with privilege. It serves as a reminder that these gentlemen were not only sponsors but also active participants in shaping our understanding of history through their extensive travels on the Grand Tour. "The Dilettanti Society" print encapsulates an era where scholarship met social status – where elite individuals came together to celebrate culture while leaving an indelible mark on British academia.
