Three Weeks After Marriage
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an intriguing and scandalous print from the 18th century, depicting a pivotal moment in the life of George, Prince of Wales. The scene takes place in a grand room, where George, dressed in a richly embroidered robe, sits on a sofa surrounded by portraits of his former lovers, including The Perdita and The Armstead. A man, presumably a well-dressed gentleman, stands before him, presenting a selection of new portraits, assuring George that the originals have been "carefully tried and are in fine order for your H--s." George, with a smug expression, holds a stack of portraits and a list of "com--able wives, widows, and crackt maids," indicating his intention to continue his philandering ways. To George's right, Maria Fitzherbert, dressed in a simple gown, looks on in shock and confusion. She holds the title page of a book, "Whose the Dupe?", suggesting that she has discovered the truth about George's infidelity. The fallen sheet from "Uncle Morgan's Frolics," a popular satirical publication of the time, adds to the chaos and scandal of the scene. The date at the bottom, April 10th, 1786, underscores the audacity of George's actions, as he had secretly married Maria just a few weeks prior. This print offers a fascinating glimpse into the personal life of a royal figure and the societal norms of the time, where infidelity and multiple marriages were not uncommon among the aristocracy.
