PRIVATE VIEW OF THE UNIVERSITY PORTRAIT
OF HIS GRACE THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON.
PAINTED BY JOHN LUCAS, E.Q.
GRUNDY has the honour to announce that he has
obtained permission for the ORIGINAL PORTRAIT
OF HIS GRACE THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON,
presented by his Grace to the University of Oxford, painted
in his robes as Chancellor of that University, to be on PRI-
VATE VIEW for FIVE DAYS, at the LYCEUM, BoLn-
STREET, commencing on Mouday, the 27th instant. Admis-
sion by Ticket only.
This Portrait, which the Duke has declared to be THE
LAST FOR WHICH HE WILL EVER SIT, was commenced at
Weimer Castle, in November last, and finished about six
weeks since, is acknowledged to be the most striking and
characteristic portrait that has been painted of him.
Numerous aa have been Alla porta:eits of "the greatest
commander of the age, and the most eminent statesman of
his time," one was yet wanting which should represent him
associated with the veneration and the learning of the uni-
vesity over which lie presides. Honoured and distinguished
by the choice of that learned body—an honour which reflected
lustre on themselves—the accession of the Duke of 'Welling-
ton to the chancellor's chair of Oxford is, and will be, one of
the most remarkable epochs of its history. This portrait,
which is unsurpasse6 as a faithful likeness, cannot fail of ob-
taining that popularity (and especially among the members of
the university) which will become one proof of the respect
and veneration which they feel for its head, and of their gra-
titude and admiration of the great man, whose name stands
the most proudly pre-eminent in the world.
The Nobility and Gentry desirous of obtaining Tickets of
Admission to view the Portrait are respectfully requested to
apply at the Committee-room, Lyceum, or to leave their
cards with Mr. Phoenix, Lyceum, or address a note to Mr.
Grundy, at the Lyceum.
