專家說明

The sitter was the son of Prince William, Duke of Gloucester and Maria, Duchess of Gloucester. He was a nephew of King George III (see lot 154) and in 1816, he married his cousin Princess Mary, daughter of George III. His late marriage, at the age of 40, resulted from his being encouraged to remain single in order to be a suitable groom for Princess Charlotte, heiress to the throne, had no other suitable prince been found. He married a few weeks after Princess Charlotte's marriage to Prince Leopold of Saxe-Coburg.
