A rare set of images relating to Winston Churchill and his friend Socialite Maxine Elliott and her country estate Hartsbourne Manor, Bushey Heath. The set of images, comprising of two photographs of Winston ( one featuring his wife Clementine), and one image of Maxine Elliott (and Lady Diana Manners ) are believed to have been taken between 1913 and 1915 (when Elliott was dating Tennis player Tony Wilding. Wilding was killed in action during WWI in 1915, and Elliott toured Belgium from then until the end of the war). They come from the extensive FMB Fisher / Blomfield archive. Francis Fisher being a New Zealand international tennis player most likely became friends with Maxine Elliott via her soon-to-be husband - the tennis player Captain Tony Wilding. It is presumed that FMB Fisher visited Wilding and Elliott at their home for an informal party (and tennis tournament). Maxine Elliott, American actress and famous socialite (most notable for having an alleged affair with King Edward VII) was to become one of Winston's best friends - and eventually introduced Churchill to Doris Castlerosse - with whom he was to have an affair. It has also been rumoured that Churchill at one time had an affair with Elliott herself. The years following the First World War and leading up to the Second World War saw Churchill stay with Elliott many times - usually at her famous French residence Chateau de l'Horizon. Very little is known about his time spent with Elliott at Hartsbourne Manor, and these are, quite possibly, the only images of his time there. This lot comprises of: a black and white 6x4" sized photograph taken by FMB Fisher showing Churchill in the gardens of Hartsbourne Manor wearing his artist's smock, with palette and paint brush in hand. His signature Homburg hat atop his head. To the right of the image is a clear shot of an unknown Churchill oil painting - fresh from the palette of Churchill. To the rear of the image, in the hand of FMB Fisher is written 'Winston Churchill finds a new pastime besides politics - at Hartsbourne '. The second image, taken moments prior, shows Churchill with his back to the camera busy with his painting. His wife Clementine stands beside him, looking at the photographer. Churchill's artists box rests to the left of the frame. The margin is annotated 'Mr & Mrs Winston Churchill at Hartsbourne Manor' and, also in the hand of FMB Fisher, to the verso is written: 'Mrs Winston Churchill + her husband '. The third image, taken upon the same occasion, shows Hartsbourne Manor owner Maxine Elliott and another friend Lady Diana Manners sat aside a tennis court. An empty chair is shown next to the two ladies. The bottom of the photograph is annotated, in the hand of FMB Fisher 'Lady Diana Manners & Miss Maxine Elliott '. The rear of the photograph (in the same hand) reads 'Miss Maxine Elliott (with cigarette) + Lady Diana Manners - on the red court at Hartsbourne'. Accompanying the images is a letter dated July 2nd 1916, on headed 'Hartsbourne Manor' note paper to FMB Fisher, which reads 'Dear Mr Fisher, Thank you very much for the lovely book you sent us. We think it is perfectly sweet, Jean has read quite half of it already. It was so kind of you to think of us. Yours Affectionately, Maxine Forbes-Robertson (Blossom) ' A neat sketch by Forbes-Robertson of a jockey and horse then follows. Forbes-Robertson was the niece of Maxine Elliott (herself the daughter of a famous acting family). The Forbes-Robertson's had an entire wing of Hartsbourne to themselves, and lived there for a number of years. It can be surmised that during his visit to Hartsbourne Manor, FMB Fisher befriended the Forbes-Robertsons and kept in touch often. From the same collection, but likely unrelated (directly) to this event is a period Polo Match ticket dated Saturday June 18th ' Rugby Vs Roehampton ' - which lists the teams thus: 'Rugby - HRH Prince Of Wales, Lt. Col. ED Miller, Lt. Col. CD Miller, Rt. Hon. Winston Churchill ' ' Roehampton - Viscount Ednam, HM The King Of Spain, WS Buckmaster and Admiral Earl Beatty '. (Framed) Many sources state that Churchill met Maxine Elliott at some point in the 1930's, and little to no information exists as to Churchill's meeting with her prior to her owning her French Chateau in 1933. Elliott owned and stayed in Hartsbourne until 1920 - so these photographs pre-date the French Chateau by some 13 years (at least). Clementine, Churchill's wife would later go on record as saying she thought the behaviour of Elliott and her friends 'raffish and vulgar,' and seldom accompanied Churchill to the residence. Her presence in this set of images may indicate a very early meeting between Churchill and Elliott. Altogether a fascinating and historically important collection of images, which sheds light not only onto Churchill's artistic past times, but also his social life, acquaintances and social circles. Rare. . Note: from the large Fisher / Blomfield family archive consigned to this sale. The collection comprises of items from Francis ' FMB ' Marion Bates Fisher (a famous Edwardian Tennis Player ) and features items from the lives of his entire family (most notably that of his eldest daughter Esther Fisher who went on to become an international pianist, his other daughter was Lady Esther Frances Barron and his youngest daughter Alice Blomfield (nee Fisher) whose husband - Siegfried Blomfield - was a noted soldier during WWII and whose daughter (Juliet Blomfield) went on to become a ballet dancer). The family owned many properties both in the UK and New Zealand, and were extremely well travelled. Their friends and acquaintances were some of the most notable characters of our time - Ernest Shackleton , Winston Churchill , Maxine Elliott , Henry Wadsworth Longfellow , John Singer Sargent but to name a few. An incredible collection, of great social interest.
