The two journals. Joul 1
-
First edition. A single sheet with a sequence of eight scenes, arranged in two rows, each with an inscription below it. They represent a day spent by the Tsar while in London. [1] Alexander stands by a combined wash-stand and dressing-table (left) in a simply furnished bedroom. A valet helps him to put on his coat. The rest follow in a similar fashion. Very good, clean condition, with attractive hand colouring. Still bright. Clean but slightly darkened to the verso. By insisting on staying with his sister, he slighted the Prince Regent, who had offered him the use of St James' Palace. The incidents of the day are carefully adapted to contrast with the habits of the Regent. The plate is 24.5cm x 34.5cm the sheet is 25cm x 41cm. British museum ref: 1866,0407.279; Wellcome Collection 652537i.
