Faust (part one) begins in heaven. Mephistopheles makes a bet with God. He says that he can deflect God's favourite human being, Faust, who is trying to learn the best in life and turns to magic for the showering of infinite knowledge. Fearing failure, Faust goes for a walk with his assistant Wagner and is followed home by a stray poodle. In Faust's study, the poodle transforms into the Devil. Faust makes an arrangement with the Devil that the Devil will do everything that Faust wants whilst on earth, and in exchange Faust will serve the Devil in Hell. Faust then meets a young girl, Gretchen, to whom he is deeply attracted and the devil draws Gretchen into Faust's arms. After the sudden death of her mother and brother Gretchen discovers she is pregnant. She drowns her illegitimate child and is convicted of the murder. Faust tries to save Gretchen from death but finding that they cannot free her, Faust and the Devil flee the dungeon, while voices from heaven announce that Gretchen shall be saved.

This monumental tribute in respect to the memory of Ad. Ld. Nelson, who in the moment of victory glorious fell fighting ...Hand coloured etching, London: I. Hinton, March 1, 1806. Framed, small size Note: Similar to Le Quesne 43, this is a rare example of one of the prints used as the basis for the glass pictures. Such prints are all togther different from the high quality mezzotints used as the basis for glass pictures in the previous century. The prints are largely etchings strengthened in places by some dirct engraving of the plates, together with some light use of the mezzotint rocker. Surving prints are rarer than the glass pictures themselves and Professor Le Quesne records only ever having seen two. (Le Quesne pp. 94-95).

Also included in the sale are a copy of a photograph of her wearing the dress in the painting and a Columbia Records postcard. Sir Claude Francis Barry was born 125 years ago into a rich family whose wealth was based on heavy industry. But he had a troubled childhood after the death of his m ther when he was two and his father's subsequent re-marriage in 1893. In 1905 he went to live in St Ives. Barry was a pacifist and was any way exempted from military service; he did not fight in the First World War. From about 1905, he exhibited his pointilistic works at the Royal Academy and elsewhere. Between the Wars he became renowned for his etchings and spent much of his time on the Continent returning to St Ives in 1939. Most of his etching plates were stored in Milan and were destroyed by a bomb in 1944. After the War he left Cornwall to live on Jersey. It is during this period that he painted many of his portraits including this one. Provenance; This portrait is sent in for sale by the sitter. Mary Marshall knew the artist well and he had great admiration for her as a singer. She was born in Bolton and was a solo artiste with Columbia in the 1950's. For a short time she was a member of a group "The Three Shades". She moved from her recording company and accepted a contract to perform in the Channel slands for impresario Sydney James, where she caused an unprecedented sensation; they were married in 1960 and settled in Guernsey. Mary continued in Sydney's Olde Tyme Music Hall shows and cabarets for many years having had two daughters. She retired in 1979 and remains in Guernsey today having remarried after her husband's death in 1985.
