AN INTERESTING COLLECTION OF LETTERS FROM DANTE GABRIEL ROSSETTI TO THEODORE WATTS-DUNTON dating from 1887 to 1881, chiefly concerning updates on Rossetti's works of the time, including a drawing of Mrs Stillman (Marie Spartali Stillman (1844-1927)), but also highlighting Rossetti's loneliness in his latter years, 13 letters in total, 11 with original envelopes, all with typed transcriptions (available upon request)Provenance: Kerrison Preston Esq. and by descentKerrison Preston Esq. (1884-1974) practised as a solicitor in Bournemouth, Hampshire (now Dorset) from 1909 to 1949. He was a noted connoisseur with a collection including Pre-Raphaelite works by Rossetti and Burne-Jones, which were saved for the nation by Duke’s in 2007 and now form part of the collection of the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford. Gabriel Charles Dante Rossetti (12 May 1828 – 9 April 1882), generally known as Dante Gabriel Rossetti was an English poet, illustrator, painter, and translator, and member of the Rossetti family. He founded the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood in 1848 with William Holman Hunt and John Everett Millais. Rossetti was later to be the main inspiration for a second generation of artists and writers influenced by the movement, most notably William Morris and Edward Burne-Jones. His work also influenced the European Symbolists and was a major precursor of the Aesthetic movement.Theodore Watts-Dunton (12 October 1832 – 6 June 1914), from St Ives, Huntingdonshire, was an English poetry critic with major periodicals, and himself a poet. He is remembered particularly as the friend and minder of Algernon Charles Swinburne, whom he rescued from alcoholism and persuaded to continue writing. Watts-Dunton had considerable influence as the friend of many of the leading men of letters of his time; he enjoyed the confidence of Tennyson and contributed an appreciation of him to the authorized biography. He was in later years Dante Gabriel Rossetti's most intimate friend (Rossetti made a portrait of Watts in pastel in 1874).

El-Fayum portrait of a lady. Ancient Egypt, Er-Rubayat period, P. Romano, ca. 121-245 AD.Wood and pigments.In good state of preservation.Carbon 14 test attached.Provenance:- Found in er-Rubaiyat, Egypt, before 1903.- Theodor Graf (1840-1903), Vienna.- Private collection of engineer Claes A. Philip (1912-2000, Sweden), acquired by inheritance. He was a passionate collector of antiques, old paintings, Asian works of art, European furniture and decorative arts. His eclectic home was spectacularly presented in Trollesund Säteri until 1965, thereafter at his home in Stockholm. Behind the frame is a label as an exlibris of the collection, as well as a handwritten note cataloguing the piece.Enclosed are old photographs of the piece in the collector's home, as well as a copy of the collection's inventory page with the piece.Publications:-PARLASCA, Klaus. Ritratti di Mummie. Repertorio d'arte dell'Egitto Greco-Roman. Volume IV. Rome. Series B.N.823 fig. 3.Size: 34 x 17.5 cm.The present panel was part of the first collection of portraits of El Fayum assembled by the Viennese antiquarian Theodor Graff in the late 1880s, an important compilation that introduced this genre of portraiture to the Western world. Theodor Graff was a carpet and art dealer who, in 1887, acquired more than 300 portraits of mummies such as the one presented here. He exhibited the pieces in various places in Europe and America to great public acclaim, selling them to various institutions and private collectors. The success of his collection led him to supply portraits to the most important international museums, from the British Museum in London to the Metropolitan in New York.The Fayum portraits are realist-style paintings on wood that originally covered the faces of mummies from the Roman province of Egypt. They are part of the tradition of panel painting, a highly respected discipline in the classical world, and are the only major ensemble of this tradition that has survived to the present day. It was continued in the Byzantine and Western traditions of the post-classical world, including Egyptian Coptic iconography.They have been found throughout Egypt, but are most common in the Fayum region, and date from the Roman period, from the 1st century BC onwards. Although it is not known for certain when their production ended, research suggests that it was around the middle of the 3rd century. Often, given the realism of these portraits, they can be dated by the type of hairstyle, jewellery or clothing.These portraits covered the faces of mummified bodies, complementing the traditional cartonnage of Egyptian mummies. They usually depict a single person, showing the face or head and upper torso, always with a frontal view. Stylistically, these images are directly inherited from the Greco-Latin tradition rather than the Egyptian one. In fact, the population of the Fayum area grew considerably as a result of a wave of Greek immigration during the Hellenistic period.In terms of technique, there are two groups of portraits: those painted in encaustic, using wax, and those painted in tempera, although they are always on wood.These works are of exceptional historiographical interest as they illustrate the meeting point between Greek painting, Roman realist portraiture and Ancient Egyptian religion. In fact, the Egyptians believed that their funerary portraits should be as realistic as possible so that they could be clearly recognised after death.
HARRINGTON MANN R.P., R.E. (SCOTTISH 1864-1937) STUDY OF CATHLEEN MANN Signed, oil on canvasboard(41cm x 30.5cm (16in x 12in))Mann's daughter Cathleen was born in Newcastle in 1896. She was taught by her father, his friend the artist Ethel Walker and trained at the Slade School of Fine Art in London. Cathleen became an established artist in her own right and was elected to the Royal Society of Portrait Painters and the Royal Institute of Oil Painters. Following her 1926 marriage to Francis Archibald Kelhead Douglas, the eleventh Marquess of Queesberry, she became unwillingly known as the 'Painting Peeress' (see ed. Alice Strang, Modern Scottish Women: Painters and Sculptors 1885-1965, National Galleries of Scotland, Edinburgh, 2015, exh. cat., p. 76).
◆ ANCELL STRONACH (SCOTTISH 1901-1981) WHERE SINKS THE VOICE OF MUSIC INTO SILENCE Signed and dated 1924, oil on canvas(127cm x 102cm (50in x 40in))Provenance: Purchased from the Fine Art Society by John W. D. Thomson in 1980, and thence by descent. Exhibited: The Royal Glasgow Institute of Fine Arts, 1924 ‘Ten Years of The Fine Art Society in Glasgow’ exhibition, 1989Note: Ancell Stronach is generally an unfamiliar name, even to Scottish Art enthusiasts, but in his day he was a significant figure in the Scottish art scene. Born in Dundee, he trained at the Glasgow School of Art, winning many awards and a travelling scholarship. Following his studies he worked professionally as an artist, designing stained glass, painting murals, decorating churches and establishing a reputation as a portrait artist. Alongside his own painting he also taught, rising to the position of Professor of Mural Painting at Glasgow School of Art. He was elected a member of the R.S.A. in 1934, and exhibited internationally at the R.S.A., R.A., Paris Salon and in exhibitions in Canada, New Zealand and America; all the markers of a significant and accomplished career. Where Sinks the Voice of Music Into Silence is bold and decorative, with the vibrant colour and ecclesiastical details that were the signature of his painting at this time. Stronach pulls detail, poetry and inspiration together masterfully in this work, with areas of rich, flat colour interspersed with delicate patterning and design. Close attention reveals a wealth of considered detail, such as the tendrils of the male figure’s beard, the curling waves at the bottom-left corner and the snow-topped hills in the distance. The composition is accomplished: the delicate angelic wings are centred in the canvas, with the figures placed in a ‘V’ around them, maintaining balance and visual interest as every inch of canvas is utilised. The result is a richly rewarding viewing experience. Stronach’s poetic title does little to reveal the meaning or moment that this work depicts, but it nevertheless further evokes the atmosphere that the painting itself conveys. The feeling is symbolic and meaningful with a sense of mysticism, creativity and spirituality. Artistically, Stronach was inspired by early Italian fresco painters and the Pre-Raphaelites, though his commitment to mural painting and stained glass design also shines through in this significant work. His chosen style and subject reflects the wider Celtic Revival movement prevalent in Scotland’s arts scene at the time, which is also visible in the work of contemporaneous artists such as John Duncan and Phoebe Anna Traquair. The Celtic Revival and the Pre-Raphaelites were concerned with looking to a distant past for inspiration and Stronach strives for that here. The melding of historic and modern lends the painting an essential timelessness in its beauty. At the outbreak of war in 1939, Stronach felt his opportunities as an artist were greatly reduced by the extenuating circumstances and took the opportunity to change direction, pursuing a long-standing interest in animals and the circus. He married a professional acrobat and they toured together with his show, entitled ‘Ancell and his 40 Painted Pigeons.’ He did not engage with the art world for the remainder of his life, though it is believed he continued to paint for personal pleasure. It is for this reason that his name remains relatively unknown, and the appearance of his works on the market is rare; ultimately his professional painting career only lasted for a very limited period, despite his talent and success. Where Sinks the Voice of Music into Silence was first exhibited at The Royal Glasgow Institute of Fine Arts in 1924. More recently it was purchased by the current vendor’s late husband at the Fine Art Society in 1980. The vendor remembers the dramatic moment of seeing this work for the first time, and the immediate decision to purchase. In the forty years since, it has hung in just two locations, his architectural practice in the West End of Glasgow and their home in Stirlingshire. A rare opportunity now presents itself for this rich, dramatic and decorative work to find a new home.
