SUMMARY:Sense and Servility: Excess in the Regency
DESCRIPTION:In June 1811\, the newly titled Prince Regent held a grand fete\, raising his lips to the first glass of what would be many bottles of champagne. It was a sign of what was to mark this decade\, as the King’s exuberance would often outstrip his pocket at the people’s expense. \nMeanwhile\, the country under his control slowly and terrifyingly burned – the Luddites destroyed their machines\, the Weavers rioted\, the Duke of Wellington played military whack-a-mole with Napoleon\, and the Parthenon Marbles began to glint in the eye of Lord Elgin. \nArt dealer Angus Haldane will examine the extraordinary decade of 1811-1820 in which a Prime Minister was assassinated\, Pride and Prejudice was published\, and the Battle of Waterloo was won. \nA decade in which actresses charmed audiences with their talent on the stage and lived in fear (or hope) of being chosen as the next royal mistress. Years when The Prince Regent’s number of illegitimate children multiplied whilst Byron\, Shelley\, Walter Scott and Mary Wolstencraft intoxicated and challenged their readers with their words. \nAngus will discuss works from this period by Lawrence\, Raeburn\, Hoppner\, Constable and Turner. He will scrutinise Empire Line dresses\, décolleté necklines\, and fancy-dress frills as well as look at the architecture of John Nash\, the Brighton Pavilion\, and describe the excessive feasts which took place within. Join us as we learn how the Regency was a heady ten years of drama\, intrigue\, sex and politics! \n\nLIVE\nMonday\, April 18 | 6:00 p.m. (ET)\nOnline via Zoom Webinar\n$15 members; $20 non-members \n\nRENT\nFrom Tuesday\, April 19 to Thursday\, April 28 \nRent the recorded lecture to watch at your leisure\n$15 members; $20 non-members
