(Thomas Chaloner was a member of parliament, and signed the death warrant of Charles I.) (From the Honington Hall collection, Shipston-on-Stour, Warwickshire. ) Canvas. Height, 41% inches, width, 32% inches. [SEE ILLUSTRATION] John Smith, the author of the “Catalogue Raisonné,’ and many other writers on Van Dyck, in dealing with this famous portrait, have confused the father and the son. ‘The portrait does not represent Sir ‘Thomas Chaloner, the naturalist, who was born in 1561 and who died in 1615, for these dates at once prove that it could not be of him. As a matter of fact, it represents Sir Thomas Chaloner’s third son and namesake, who was born in 1595 and who died in exile in 1661. Thomas Chaloner, whose chief claim to fame is that he was one of the regi- cides who signed the ais warrant of Charles I, was one of the most prominent figures in the struggles between the Stuart king and his people, and he figures largely in the history of that stirring period in English history. He was born at Steeple Claydon, Buckinghamshire, in 1595, and matriculated at Exeter College, Oxford, at the age of sixteen. He took no degree and his education was finished under the superintendence of his father. Like most other young gentlemen of the 17th and 18th centuries, he made the Grand Tour on the Continent of Europe, from which he is said to have returned not only “a per- fect gentleman,” but with strong republican sympathies. He settled on the paternal estates at Guisborough and was elected to the English House of Com- mons for Richmond, Yorkshire, in 1645. A fluent speaker, he took up the cause of the people as against that of the monarchy. During the Civil War he made a famous speech on the reading of the Scottish papers respecting the dis- posal of the King’s person. He opposed all the Scottish encroachments on what he called the “English rights,” and published an ‘‘ Answer to the Scottish Papers.” In 1647 he and Colonel Temple were appointed Commissioners of Parliament to transact affairs in the Province of Munster. In the year follow- ing ( 1648) he was one of the King’s judges, attending 167 of the meetings and signing the death-warrant. In 1651 he was a Councillor of State and Master of the Mint. ‘Two years later he seems to have aroused the anger of Oliver Cromwell and at the dissolution of the Long Parliament was described by the Great Protector as a drunkard. In 1658 he was a member of Parliament for Scarborough and during this year was sent to prison by Fleetwood. We have an interesting pen-portrait of him by Anthony A. Wood, the chronicler of the period: ‘““This Thomas Chaloner, who was far from being a Puritan or a Presbyterian as the East is from the West, for he was a boon com- PORTRAIT OF THOMAS CHALONER | BY SIR ANTHONY VAN DYCK [ 109] Ay panion, was of Henry Marten’s gang, was of the natural religion and loved to enjoy the comfortable importance of this life, without any tegard of lee up for a wet day, which at last he wanted.” Realizing that the restoration of the monarchy was inevitable, Ghalorer published a speech containing a plea for monarchy (1659), but his change of attitude was too late, and at the return of Charles II to England he fled to the Low Countries, dying at Middleburg in Zeeland in 1661. The son and grandson of famous men (his grandfather, also Sir Thomas Chaloner—1521-1565—-was a diplomatist and was painted by Holbein), Thomas Chaloner’s mother was Elizabeth Fleetwood, daughter of William Fleetwood, Recorder of London. ‘There is evidence that “Thomas Chaloner was fe but nothing definite is known of his wife and apparently he left no issue. There are two portraits by Van Dyck of Thomas Chaloner. ‘The best known version, engraved by R. Earlom, in the 18th century, was long one of the treasures of Houghton Hall, Norfolk, the property of the Walpole family. This, which measures 40 by 32 inches, passed with the other pictures forming the Houghton Hall Gallery into the possession of the Empress Catherine and now adorns the Hermitage, Petrograd. “The present version, which has been declared by Dr. Bode as the work of the master, has all the force and vigour of Van Dyck’s art during his residence in England. It measures 4114 by 3214 inches. (Signed ) W. RoseErTs.
