THE PRINCE, “WHO DEDICATED HIS LIFE FOR THE HOMELAND”. PORTRAITS OF COLONEL DOMINIK HIERONIM RADZIWIŁŁ (1786–1813) – THE IX ORDYNAT OF OLYKA. Dominik Hieronim Radziwiłł (1786–1813) was the last Ordynat of Olyka from the Nesvizh line. He was the son of Hieronim Wincenty Radziwiłł (1759-1786) and the nephew of Karol Stanisław „Panie Kochanku” Radziwiłł (1734–1790).

It is not denying that this nobleman was a patriot who dedicated his life for the homeland. In 1812, Prince joined Napoleon Army and died in 1813 after the Battle of Hanau. In consequence his name became famous and respected by such an influential generals as Józef Załuski and Zygmunt Krasiński. The symbols of Radziwiłł’s heroism were presented in archival documents, graphics and paintings (for example in pictures from the collections stored in the National Museum in Warsaw and in Schillingsfürst residence).

Dziewiętnastowieczne ryciny z widokami miast i zabytków na rynku sztuki w Polsce

The purpose of this article is to present the situation of 19th century graphic art on the art market in contemporary Poland. The main part of the article is devoted to a discussion of the significance of prints presenting Polish urban landscapes and sights for the 19th century Polish art and culture. That period was characterised by a huge development in modern graphic techniques which consequently led to an increased popularity of prints and etchings depicting Polish monuments.

John Lamont of Benmore: a Highland planter who died ‘in harness’ in Trinidad

This article traces the rise of John Lamont, a Highland planter in nineteenth-century Trinidad. The island was subsumed into the British Empire in 1802, the third wave of colonization in the British West Indies and just thirty-two years before slavery was abolished. Many Scots travelled in search of wealth and this article reveals how one West India fortune was accumulated and repatriated to Scotland. John Lamont travelled from Argyll in the early 1800s, eventually becoming part of the Trinidad's plantocracy class and recipient of a major sum of compensation on the emancipation of slavery in 1834. Unlike many other Scots in the British West Indies, however, Lamont remained in situ in the post-emancipation period and was thus an exception to the sojourning mindset identified in previous studies. Lamont's status as an ‘every-day planter’ undoubtedly contributed to his major fortune which, despite his residency in the colonies, was dispersed in the lower Highlands of Scotland amongst his paternal family, the Lamonts of Knockdow. The article also surveys modern representations of John Lamont: a Highland planter who, in his own words, achieved his wish to die ‘in harness’ in Trinidad
