I frontispiece verso in two hands 'coll: perf: H. Drury. Harrow.' and 'LARGE PAPER. C. 153.3. from Queen Charlotte's Collection where it was bought 1819. bound by Roger Payne' see below; recent bookseller's tickets to front pastedowns.The dedication copy of John Baskerville's Orlando furioso a handsomely bound large-paper copy from the library of Queen Charlotte later in the possession of Lord Byron's tutor and friend Henry Drury with an uncensored plate defaced by the disgruntled engraver.Among the most accomplished productions of the Baskerville Press this edition of Ariosto's epic poem was commissioned by the brothers Giovanni Claudio c. 1724-c. 1812 and Pietro Molini c. 1730-1806 members of a prominent Florentine family of publishers and booksellers active in Italy France and England. Pietro who styled himself 'Librajo dell'Accademia Reale' at Haymarket is documented in London from at least 1769 - when he acted as the London representative for the Livorno edition of the Encyclopedie 1770-79 - to 1795. In his preface Pietro Molini emphasises the correctness of the text partly based on Francesco de Franceschi's 1584 Venetian edition the diligence of its printer the 'notissimo Giovanni Baskerville' and the collaboration of 'the most celebrated artists of London and Paris' trans. This is followed by a detailed life of Ariosto by Giovanni Andrea Barotti 1701-1772 a scholar from Ferrara whose edition of the complete works of the poet first published in 1741 was among the first to draw on the poet's autograph manuscript rather than relying solely on printed sources. Baskerville appears to have printed the letterpress in 1770 while the copperplates were completed by 1774. Each of the forty-six cantos opens with a facing engraving the illustrations signed by twenty-one artists and engravers active in London and Paris. The designers include Giovanni Battista Cipriani Jean-Michel Moreau le Jeune Charles-Nicolas Cochin Charles Monnet and Jean-Baptiste Greuze. The result was widely admired. Dibdin described it as the finest edition of Ariosto known to him: 'Paper printing drawing plates - all delight the eye and gratify the heart of the thorough-bred bibliomaniacal virtuoso. This edition has hardly its equal and certainly not its superior in any publication with which I am acquainted' pp. 758-59. This copy features an early uncensored state of the plate to Canto XLIII engraved by Francesco Bartolozzi 1727-1815 after Giovanni Battista Cipriani. Apparently exasperated by delays and insults from Molini - who 'one day in a passion called him an ass a poltroon an animal' Benton p. 42. Bartolozzi defaced his own work incising on the tomb of the Saracen knight Brandimarte the words 'd'asino de poltrone d'animale' removed in subsequent states cf. the Princeton copy.Ariosto dedicated his Orlando furioso to Cardinal Ippolito d'Este 1479-1520 son of Ercole I d'Este Duke of Ferrara. While centred on the paladin Orlando and his unrequited love for the pagan princess Angelica - which drives him mad - the poem interweaves multiple narrative strands within a famously complex episodic structure. Among these are the trials leading to the union of Ruggiero - a pagan knight descended from Hector - and the Christian knight heroine Bradamante culminating in Ruggiero's conversion and their marriage. From this union Ariosto mythically derives the House of Este. In his dedication to Queen Charlotte Molini explicitly draws on this genealogy invoking the 'heroes of the most glorious House of Este from which the august progenitors of your royal consort trace their origin who did not have to envy Achilles Homer nor Augustus Virgil' trans. This alludes to the eleventh-century union of Alberto Azzo II founder of the House of Este and Kunigunde of Altdorf whose son Welf I founded the younger House of Welf ancestors of the dukes of Brunswick and the Hanoverian monarchs of Britain. This dynastic connection had long played a role in the political and genealogical self-fashioning of the House of Hanover. In 1676 Sophia of Hanover mother of George I commissioned genealogical research to substantiate the traditional claim that her house descended from the Este through the Welf line. These investigations established that the House of Hanover could also claim English royal descent through Mathilda of England daughter of Henry II. Molini thus constructs a deliberate bridge between Ariosto's original Este dedication and the British royal family linking the poem's chivalric mythology to the lineage of George III and his consort.An avid reader from an early age Queen Charlotte began to form a substantial personal library after her marriage to George III in 1761. Initially housed in London her collection was later moved to Windsor Castle increasingly used as a royal residence from the mid-1770s and partly to Frogmore House which was expanded to accommodate the growing collection. In 1803 the Queen appointed Edward Harding 1755-1840 as her personal librarian at Frogmore a position he held until her death. The 1819 Christie's sale catalogue records over 4500 titles in German French Italian and English mostly recent publications.The King and Queen head the long list of subscribers to the Baskerville Orlando George III's copy is now in the King's Library at the British Library; see Bibliothecae regiae catalogus vol. I p. 123. This list forms a veritable 'who's who' of eighteenth-century Britain including aristocrats artists writers and booksellers. Among the most notable subscribers are Johann Christian Bach 1735-1782 Edmund Burke 1729-1797 David Garrick 1716-1779 and Joshua Reynolds 1723-1792. Several women are also included among them Society hostess Margaret Clive Baroness Clive nee Maskelyne 1735-1817 sculptor Anne Seymour Damer nee Conway 1748-1828 and Susanna Leveson-Gower Marchioness of Stafford nee Stewart 1742-1805 one of the most influential women in eighteenth-century British politics. The list extends internationally including subscribers from France Spain the Netherlands Russia Germany and Italy. In Naples appear Sir William Hamilton 1730-1803 British envoy and antiquarian and the architect Luigi Vanvitelli 1700-1773. The subscription price was four guineas or louis d'or with the plates.Following Queen Charlotte's death her Baskerville Orlando furioso was sold at auction with the rest of her books and personal effects an event that gave rise to a national scandal; after passing through the London trade this copy was acquired by Henry Drury classical scholar and assistant master at Harrow School from 1801 until his death serving as master of the lower school from 1833 to 1841. He was also a member of the Roxburghe Club and Fellow of the Royal Society. Among his many friends were Dibdin Drury appears in his Bibliographical Decameron and Lord Byron who stayed in his house at Harrow and later corresponded with him 'in affectionate terms and without much regard to the propriety later thought usual to preserve in a correspondence with a clergyman' ODNB. Drury's vast library including numerous Greek and Latin classics was dispersed in 4729 lots by Robert Harding Evans in a sale lasting twenty-three days in 1827 and a second by Christie & Manson in 1841 after his death. Although the binding has been attributed to Roger Payne he is not known to have bound for the Royal family; however 'he strongly influenced many who did more particularly Christian Samuel Kalthoeber who bound many of the books in the King's Library at the British Museum' Davenport p. 91.

This tradition of using the prefix Fitz—which translates as "son of"—for English royal bastards continued under the Hanoverian dynasty: William IV uncle to Queen Victoria was himself the progenitor of numerous Fitzclarences.James Fitzjames 1670–1734 the fruit of the union between James II Stuart and Arabella Churchill was created Duke of Berwick by his father in 1687. Appointed a Marshal of France in 1706 he was also granted the title of Duke of Fitz-James within the French peerage by Louis XIV in 1710. His eldest son founded the Spanish branch of the Dukes of Berwick—a line that under the name Fitz-James Stuart today holds several Grandeeships of Spain including that of Duke of Alba. His younger son founded the French branch of the Dukes of Fitz-James a line that distinguished itself over seven generations until its extinction in the mid-20th century.Fitzroy Fitzcharles et Fitzjames furent les noms donnés par les deux fils du roi Charles Ier d’Angleterre à leur descendance illégitime. Cette tradition du préfixe Fitz pour les bâtards royaux anglais qui se traduit par « fils de» se poursuivra sous la dynastie des Hanovre : Guillaume IV oncle de la reine Victoria fut en son temps l’auteur de nombreux Fitzclarence …James Fitzjames 1670-1734 fruit des amours de Jacques II Stuart et d’Arabella Churchill fut titré par son père duc de Berwick en 1687.
