Blank greetings card with envelope featuring:

Robert Stewart, 2nd Marquess of Londonderry (Lord Castlereagh) NPG 891

© National Portrait Gallery, London

by Sir Thomas Lawrence

Associated with repression in Ireland and the unpopular measures of Lord Liverpool's ministry, Castlereagh was despised for the brutal way in which the rebels were suppressed - hung from trees and shot without any kind of hearing - resulting in at least 20,000 casualties. Hazlitt observed that Lawrence's portrait showed him 'with the prim smirking aspect of a haberdasher'.
