power . the 18th century would be power. the 18th century would be britain's century. in just a few decades, she would go from a second rate power to the mistress of the seas and the arbiter of europe . you can see arbiter of europe. you can see it all depicted here. this is the painted hall of the royal naval college at greenwich . it's naval college at greenwich. it's the centrepiece of the whole composition. and it's so so—called because it's been the subject of a magnificent decorative scheme by the great painter sir james thornhill. schemes very complicated. thornhill actually writes an explanation of it all, but it can be summarised really quite quickly what thornhill did was to illustrate it on an extraordinary scale . all the extraordinary scale. all the coronation sermon for william and mary in that sermon, he said , we in britain are in a uniquely fortunate middle position. we are men of reason. god governed as free people and

we're at a midway point between the tyranny of despotic power. on the one hand and the ungoverned multitudes. the wildness of the ungoverned multitude . in other words, not multitude. in other words, not louis the 14th, not oliver cromwell . and up there you see cromwell. and up there you see him translating that into this extra ordinary swirling composition . in the middle, composition. in the middle, we've got william and mary there actually wearing the same things that we will see at the coronation of charles and camilla. he has got the saint edward crown , the then newly edward crown, the then newly made for the coronation of charles ii. and she is carrying the consort sceptre , the ivory the consort sceptre, the ivory rod that will actually be borne by camilla at her coronation. and all around are the rational virtues, not simply rational, but the actual underpinnings of the new british power that's created by the settlement

between the crown and parliament of the glorious revolution . of the glorious revolution. let's swing away from the royal bit and look at what also catches your eye, which is the image there, the great warship with the red ensign at its bottom. that is hms blenheim. it's named after the great victory of marlborough under louis the 14th in 1705. that changes the balance of european power forever. but all around , power forever. but all around, you have symbols of reason . the you have symbols of reason. the things that enable this to happen. you've got galileo there with his telescope. you've got overin with his telescope. you've got over in that corner the symbol of astronomy with the astrolabe . and then in the middle you've got economic power, you've got the city of london. these are all as allegorical figures. you've got the river thames, you've got the river isis representing oxford . and the representing oxford. and the reason afraid they couldn't find room for cambridge. and then down here you've got old father tyne bringing his coal to london is already powering this new age

of financial industrial complex that will conquer the world. it was an age of innovation in the economy, science and above all, in politics. with parliament steadily becoming more powerful in the act of settlement of 1701, it even appropriated for itself the right to change the royal dynasty . in short, royal dynasty. in short, parliament was behaving more and more like the senate of the ancient roman republic and the engush ancient roman republic and the english elite educated in the classics , started to present classics, started to present themselves as roman senators. also the queen anne, the last protestant stuart of the direct line, died on the 1st of august 1714. the heir , the protestant 1714. the heir, the protestant heir, of course, under the act of settlement was george ludwig, the elector of hanover. he took his time to get here and didn't land at greenwich until six weeks later on the 18th of

september. it's an autumn evening. it's 6:00. he's plainly dressed. he walks through these great courts and colonnades and stays overnight in the queen's house. the following morning, he receives the chief ministers who are tory. he doesn't much like tories . now, what do you do with tories. now, what do you do with this scene when you're a history painter commissioned to make a grand event of this rather modern little arrival? well, what you do with it is this you turn it into a scene from a roman triumph , a roman roman triumph, a roman republican triumph, and you represent it as though it was carved in stone . it's called carved in stone. it's called grisaille. so here we've got george arriving . you can tell george arriving. you can tell he's george. he's still got the 18th century wig on and he's in the shell chariot drawn by horses. and here on the far right, well, there is a sort of engush right, well, there is a sort of english figure. it's good old saint george , but he's saint george, but he's represented as a roman centurion. and then everybody

around the king is, well, a republican virtue. you have justice, as you can see her there with the scale pan. you have happy ms there. she's undressed and clearly rather a loose girl . you've got peace loose girl. you've got peace with her, olive branch. you've got fame with the trumpet. you've got eternity is christian. but it's represented as a roman abstraction with the celestial crown . and then the celestial crown. and then the key figures in front. are there . you've got it. liberty with the centurion's helmet on carrying a republican cap and next to her religion. but as a roman priestess , what is this? roman priestess, what is this? well it's britain as a crowned republic . well it's britain as a crowned republic. it's britain well it's britain as a crowned republic . it's britain with well it's britain as a crowned republic. it's britain with a monarchy that is actively contemptuous of miraculous religion. we're about as far away from the world of richard the second as we could possibly

be. this is a monarchy that hardly needs coronation. that despite his ritual , that wants despite his ritual, that wants something different, republican , the first hanoverian monarchs were foreigners to england and george the first didn't even speak english. they weren't ciphers, but the political initiative increasing fell to their ministers. the arts, on their ministers. the arts, on the other hand , and music in the other hand, and music in particular, were areas where they could lead public taste, especially at a coronation the figure behind me in full armour carrying the field marshal's baton is george ii, and he succeeds to the throne. in 1727. he's a fine general, indeed. he's a fine general, indeed. he's the last english to king fight in battle personally . when fight in battle personally. when he succeeds, he does something else. the coronation continues to be de—man mystified to be

rather a shambolic, aristocratic ceremony. but george , indeed, ceremony. but george, indeed, like his father, is about the only thing that he's like his father in loves music and he loves handel, the fellow german georg frideric handel and handel composes for that coronation of 1727. the most magnificent of coronation music and the fourth coming coronation we will hear at its most sacred moment the moment of anointing zadok, the priest, and nathan the prophet anoint covid solomon king bannau . mbappe . brazier. . mbappe. brazier. the lord rac zadok. we . mbappe. brazier. the lord rac
