Leaf'Literature:cf. Copper-Plate Magazine, vol. 2, pl. 67, engraving of 'Chepstow' by J. Storer, published 1st November 1794;Andrew Wilton, J.M.W. Turner: His Art and Life, 1979, p. 311, not illustratedThe present watercolour can be identified with the one previously recorded by Alexander Joseph Finberg (1866-1939) and referred to in Wilton’s catalogue (see Literature, Wilton, p. 311), but which has until now been untraced. In his manuscript card index of Turner’s watercolours in private and public collections, now in the Print Room of the British Museum, Finberg recorded a drawing of this subject and of identical dimensions with provenance to Dr Monro, Leaf and Heron which clearly matches that of the present work. The subject of Chepstow Castle and bridge was one of sixteen scenes commissioned from Turner to be engraved for John Walker’s Copper-Plate Magazine between 1794 and 1798. This was the first time Turner was asked to supply a set of topographical views for a publication. Whilst Turner planned his Midland tour of 1794 with the intention to collect material for this venture, he would have equally drawn on landscape subjects from his earlier tours. No sketches of this composition are known, however, the Turner Bequest, now at Tate Britain, contains two pencil drawings of Chepstow (D40034, D00130) which are dated to Turner’s visit in 1792. The present view was therefore most likely inspired by Turner’s tour of Wales of June-July 1792, which could be considered his first independent tour, or his subsequent 1793 tour of the Welsh Marches which took him to many places he had visited the previous year, including the Wye valley. The tours provided Turner with the raw material from which he could develop his subjects in watercolour in his studio on his return to London. This composition is known to exist in two versions with significant variations - the present, larger and noticeably more finished version dated 1794; and another, smaller (20.3 x 29.7cm) and undated version which is now at the Courtauld Institute of Art Gallery, London (D.1974.STC.1). The differences can be observed in the arrangement of the boats, the detailing of the town and castle, and the position of the figures on the bridge. Both versions also appear to differ, to a varying extent, from the engraving of this subject by James Storer for the Copper-Plate Magazine (see Literature), though the Courtauld version is more like the subject for the engraving (see Wilton, p. 311). The present version, being large-scale and highly worked up, might have been intended as a presentation piece to a patron, such as Dr Thomas Monro who was to become one of Turner’s most important patrons. We are grateful to Andrew Wilton for confirming the attribution first hand and for his assistance with this catalogue entry. Examined out of frame.Some discolouration, especially in the sky area.

Sir David Wilkie, RA (1785-1841) Portrait of Andrew Christie (1788-1821) of Pitlessie, Fife, standing half-length in a landscape, holding his hat in his right handinscribed “[N.B.] / Captain Andrew Christie / of Pitlessie, Fife / when 17 years of age” (on an old label to the reverse)oil on canvas74.5 x 62cmProvenance:By descent in the family of the sitter to Miss Christie of Great King Street, Edinburgh, by 1886 (see Exhibited); With Horsburgh, Edinburgh by 1900 as Wilkie, with its pendant portrait of the sitter's twin brother Charles Christie (1788-1870), when bought by Agnew & Son Sold by them as Raeburn in February 1903 to Calouste Gulbenkian (1869-1955), Reacquired by Agnew & Son from Gulbenkian in December 1903, Sold subsequently to E G Raphael in April 1904, Acquired again by Agnew & Son in December 1904, Sold by them to Captain John Aitken (1863-1924) a descendant of the present sitter’s sister (see Note) in February 1905,Thence by descent to the present ownerExhibited:Edinburgh, International Exhibition of Industry, Science & Art, 6th May-30th October 1886, no. 1550 or 1724 (see Provenance and Note), as 'Portrait of Mr. Christie, son of Mr. Christie, Banker, Cupar, Fife - Sir David Wilkie, R.A.', lent by Miss Christie of 26 Great King Street, Edinburgh Literature:Allan Cunningham, The Life of Sir David Wilkie: With His Journals, Tours, and Critical Remarks on Works of Art; and a Selection from His Correspondence, 3 vols., published posthumously J. Murrey 1843, p. 67To be included in the forthcoming catalogue raisonné of Sir David Wilkie’s works by Hamish Miles, currently being edited by Alex Kidson.We are grateful to Alex Kidson for identifying the present lot as the previously lost portrait of Captain Andrew Christie and pointing out that this was first recorded by the artist's biographer Allan Cunningham (1784-1842) shortly after Wilkie's death. In his Life of Sir David Wilkie (see Literature), Cunningham lists portraits of the "two sons of Mr.Christie, banker in Cupar" in a context implying a date of about 1804 for both. The sitter, Andrew Christie (20th Sept. 1788-1821) was the son of Andrew Christie (1765-1831) of Ferrybank, a Provost of Cupar and a banker, and Margaret Dempster (1769-1842). He was commissioned into the Honourable East India Company and departed for India, where he arrived on the 16th of May 1806, dying there in 1821. These circumstances along with Wilkie’s departure for London in the spring of 1805 must explain the unfinished state of the portrait. Its pendant portrait (see Provenance & Exhibited) of the sitter's twin brother, Charles Christie (1788-1870) (see illustration) was however completed and is now in the Philadelphia Museum of Art where it was long considered to be by Raeburn. When that picture along with the present portrait were acquired from Horsburgh (see Provenance) in 1900 by Agnew, the latter’s stock books show that they initially recorded both portraits as by Wilkie, only later however crossing out the attribution and amending it to Raeburn. A portrait of the sitter’s brother-in-law’s brother, Alexander Aitken (see Provenance) was also painted at this period by Wilkie, which picture remained with his descendants until sold at Sotheby’s on 13th April 1994 (lot 34). It was then resold at Sotheby’s on 11th June 2020 when it realised 30,000 USD (with premium). The current owner of this lot is descended from Jane Christie, the sister of the sitter in the present portrait. The painting is executed in oil on a canvas support which has been lined. The canvas has deformations across the surface, notably at the upper left corner. The lining canvas is brittle at the tacking edges. The painting has suffered from knocks with a few small holes and circular impact cracks. The painting is unfinished but may also have been overcleaned, there are areas of abrasion in some of the thicker paint passages. The painting has an uneven varnish layer with some glossy, vertical drips of yellowed varnish. In other areas there is a matte haze across the surface. There is a light layer of surface dirt present.

There is a light layer of surface dirt present. There are localised areas of overpaint, applied in a brushy manner and reasonably well matched to the original.

In a career lasting from May 1948 until 1950, Abernant won 14 out of 17 races to the value of £26,394. He is widely considered one of the best sprinters since WWII and his notable wins included the Middle Park Stakes (1948), the King’s Stand Stakes (1949), the July Cup (1949, 1950) and the Nunthorpe Stakes (1949, 1950). Following a successful flat racing career, Abernant went to stud and sired the winners of over 1,000 races. Among the most notable were Abermaid (1962 1,000 Guineas Stakes), Even Star (Irish 1,000 Guineas), Welsh Rake (1963 Queen Anne Stakes), Zahedan (1965 National Stakes) and Thin Ice (Sanford Stakes).Framed 38 x 43cmExecuted in oil on wooden panel.
