Happy 257th Birthday, Viscount Castlereagh!
Poor Castlereagh. Even on his birthday he doesn't get to feel like he was the most important of the three major men born in 1769. 18 June 1815 was probably the last birthday he celebrated without it being overshadowed by Waterloo celebrations.

Portrait of the Children of Charles Blair
1769 Oil on canvas, 128 x 102 cm Private collection
BEACH, Thomas
(b. 1738, Milton Abbas, d. 1806, Dorchester)
This painting represents Charles and Henry Blair, the children of Charles Blair and Lady Mary Fane, full length, wearing green and red suits of clothes, playing cup and ball in a landscape.
Beach's paintings are well known in the West of England and consist chiefly of portraits. His works are well drawn, carefully painted, often in a low sober tone. The likenesses are usually excellent, without concession to flattery and easy to recognise.
Madame François Buron (1769) by Jacques-Louis David
