Frederick, Prince of Wales, with his brother the Duke of Cumberland and their five sisters by William Aikman (1682-1731). Oil on canvas, 1730. They are the children of King George II. The sisters are Anne, Princess of Orange; Princess Amelia; Princess Caroline; Mary, Landgravine of Hesse-Cassel; Louise, Queen of Denmark. You can see a celestial globe and a pair of Yeoman Warders or Beefeaters in the group portrait too.
Aikman was a law graduate from Edinburgh University. He moved to London in 1704 where he established his first practice as an independent painter. By 1723 Aikman had settled permanently in London with his wife and young family, setting up his studio firstly in Suffolk Street, a few streets away from St. Martins Lane and Covent Garden. He later moved to Leicester Fields and this is where his practice flourished. He died pf tuberculosis the year after this group portrait was completed. Auction notices in the Daily Post on Saturday April 3rd 1731 for Aikman’s collection of prints and paintings after his death in 1731, lists his address as ‘Mr Aikman’s Dwelling-House, the East Side of Leicester Square’.

The Duke of Burgundy is the sole representative of a subfamily known as the "metalmarks", since some of its cousins, particularly those found in south America, have a metallic appearance. A curious characteristic of this subfamily is that the female has 6 fully-functional legs, whereas the male has only 4 - the forelegs being greatly reduced. The Duke of Burgundy was once classified as a fritillary, given the similarity with those fritillary species found in the British Isles. This butterfly is found mainly in central southern England, although scattered colonies are found elsewhere such as in the north of England in Cumbria and Yorkshire. This species is not found in Wales, Scotland, Ireland, the Isle of Man or the Channel Islands. Although relatively-large colonies exist, most colonies only contain around a dozen individuals at the peak of the flight season.
There is one brood each year, with the adults emerging at the end of April in southern sites, peaking in the middle of May. A partial second brood may appear in some years, but this is the exception, rather than the rule, and only occurs in certain sites in the south of England.
This butterfly was, in the past, primarily known as a woodland butterfly, where it fed on Primroses growing in dappled sunlight, with a number of colonies in chalk and limestone grassland. However, the cessation of coppicing in woodlands has had a marked effect on this species, with many woodland colonies dying out as a result. Primrose is used as the larval foodplant in woodland, whereas Cowslip is used on grassland.
The sexes are similar in appearance, although the female tends to have more orange on the wings and rounder tips to the forewings. The male and female can also be distinguished by behaviour. The fast-flying males are extremely territorial and will sit on a favourite perch, darting out to inspect anything that might be a passing female. Once a virgin female is encountered, the two mate without any discernable courtship. This is usually in mid-morning just after the females have emerged. The flight of the female is not as rapid as the male and they are often seen when egg-laying as they move from plant to plant, landing on the edge of a leaf before curling their abdomen to lay on the underside of the leaf.
Adults only occasionally nectar, usually in warmer weather, with Wood Spurge, Buttercup, Hawthorn and Bugle being favourites. Both sexes roost in tall scrub or trees.
