The natural history books used as background for this jewellery still-life shoot are all from the Collection at Goodwood. The 2nd and 3rd Dukes of Richmond were both fascinated by the natural world – keen horticulturalists who were also in touch with some of the leading scientists and thinkers of the Enlightenment. A relative by marriage to the famous naturalist Sir Hans Sloane and the botanist and academic Lord Bentinck, the 2nd Duke was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society when aged just 22. He was one of the subscribers to Mark Catesby’s Natural History of Carolina, Florida and the Bahama Islands, such subscriptions being the crowdfunding of the era – a way of sponsoring research and fostering talent, as well as acquiring this fascinating and important book.
As well as going on the conventional Grand Tour of the era, his son would spend time studying natural sciences at Leiden University, a remarkable choice for an English aristocrat at this time. From later books in the Goodwood Library – which range from an 1825 edition of Erasmus Darwin’s two-part poem The Botanic Garden through to Trees of Interest at Goodwood, a book privately printed by for the 7th Duke in 1912 – it is apparent that the natural world has been of enduring interest to the Dukes of Richmond over many generations.
John Hill, Exotic Botany, London, 1759

Many of the subscribers to this beautiful book were aristocratic ladies, including the Duchess of Richmond, wife of the 2nd Duke of Richmond. Wilkes was a history and portrait painter who turned to natural history.
