Monumental Tablet to the Memory of the Late Duchess of Beaufort recently erected in... 1858. Creator: Unknown
Monumental Tablet to the Memory of the Late Duchess of Beaufort recently erected in Badminton Church, 1858....a very chastely-designed and admirably-executed work of art, in white marble, and comprises a medallion likeness of the Duchess in her widowed state, with a group of Charity and a figure of Religion...The twofold source of these characteristics...chosen as main qualities to be sculptured in the marble - are well impersonated and artistically treated in bas-relief by the sculptor, Mr. J. Edwards...it is erected by her surviving daughters and sons-in-law, who, where so much might have been recorded of most exemplary deeds performed and true reverence won, have preferred a dignified simplicity in the inscription, which is worded as follows: "Sacred to the memory of Charlotte Sophia, fifth daughter of the first Marquis of Stafford, and wife of Henry Charles, sixth Duke of Beaufort, to whom she bore thirteen children. She was born on the 10th of January, 1771, and departed this life in the peace and faith of Christ on the 12th of August, 1854, aged eighty-three. Her children arise up and call her blessed." Above this inscription, on a band under the medallion, there is the quotation, "I know that my Redeemer liveth". From "Illustrated London News", 1858
