拍品描述: TWO GEORGE III SILVER WINE COOLERS MARK OF PAUL STORR, LONDON, 1812 AND 1814 Each on four lion's paw and oblong pad feet with acanthus terminals, the partly-fluted body with moulded mid-rib and gadrooned rim, the reeded foliate shell-capped handles with lion's mask terminals, the detachable waisted collar with gadrooned, foliage and shell border, later engraved twice on the body with a coat-of-arms within the Garter motto beneath marquess' coronet, the collars and one liner with a crest with marquess' above, marked on bodies, collars and liners, stamped No 1 and workshop numbers 366 and 567 9 ? in. (24.2 cm.) high 243 oz. 18 dwt. (7,587 gr.) The arms are those of Paget, for Henry Paget, 2nd Earl of Uxbridge and 1st Marquess of Anglesey K.G. (1768-1854). Field Marshal Henry Paget, 1st Marquess of Anglesey K.G. (1768-1854), an eminent military figure, was the commander of the cavalry at the Battle of Waterloo in 1815. He is famously remembered for the loss of his leg as he was riding alongside the Duke of Wellington. Upon receiving grapeshot to his right knee, he supposedly told Wellington, 'By God Sir, I've lost my leg' to which Wellington replied 'By God Sir, so you have.' Paget's leg was amputated and buried beneath an elaborate memorial in the village of Waterloo. The family's estates were centred around their seat Beaudesert, Staffordshire and Plas Newydd, Anglesey. Henry Paget was educated at Westminster and Christ Church College, Oxford. He first entered Parliament in 1790. He served in the Staffordshire militia commanded by his father, and in 1793 he raised a regiment of infantry from his father's tenantry. In 1794 they fought the French in Flanders, under the Duke of York. He was made Colonel in 1796, and Lieutenant-Colonel of the 7th Light Dragoons in 1797. He was promoted to Major-General in 1802, Lieutenant-General in 1808 and finally Field-Marshal in 1849. He first distinguished himself as a cavalry officer whilst serving in Spain, Sir John Moore wrote in 1808 'our cavalry is very superior in quality to any the French have, and the right spirit has been infused into them by the example and instruction of their two leaders, Lord Paget and brigadier-general Stewart.' He was recalled to the army in 1815 to fight in the Battle of Waterloo and created Marquess of Anglesey in recognition of his service. He received the Order of the Garter in 1818. In the Duke of Wellington's administration he was Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland, however, his relationship with Wellington became increasingly strained and he was recalled from Ireland the next year only to be reappointed by Lord Grey in 1830. He died at the age of 86 and is buried in the family vault at Lichfield Cathedral. A matching pair of wine coolers from the set of four are in the The Rienzi Collection, The Museum of Fine Arts Houson, Texas, the bequest of Caroline Wiess Law (Museum no. 2004.1359.1,.2).
