Follower of Lam Qua, a pair of Chinese School portraits of a woman, 19th centuryEach of a young woman seated at a table and holding a manuscript, arranged in opposing poses and wearing traditional robes, oil on canvas, unsigned, in plain hardwood frames, 52cm x 38cm (relined and re-stretched).(2)Footnote: Footnote:The Chinese portrait painter Lam Qua (active circa 1825-1860), was a student of George Chinnery and became renowned for the countenances of Western merchants but also the Chinese Hong merchants who traded with them. This fine pair follow the tradition of Western style portraiture and are thought to be depictions of the same woman, possibly a concubine. An inspection of the canvas reveals they have been relined and restretched, so likely contemporaneous with Lam Qua himself, and they bear a striking resemblance to a portrait of the fourth concubine of Hexing (Wo Hing), currently in the Brighton Royal Pavilion Museum, UK.Condition report: Both canvasses relined and re-stretched. Original canvas likely 19th century or earlier and not 20th century as originally catalogued. Faint cracklure overall both. Some retouching visible under UV in places on both.

Late century German School, seven framed oval panels, containing portrait miniatures, groups of scholars, philosophers, artists etc. Each miniature 49 mm x 40 mm with gilt and mahogany surround, nine in each oval glazed frame. 36 cm x 27 cm (see illustration). CONDITION REPORT: It is very difficult to tell what the panels are painted on. We are fairly confident that they are on ivory laid onto wood. Looking at some of the stress fractures on some of the miniatures it would indicate either ivory or bone or something similar. Whilst we are fairly confident of this we are not making any guarantee that this is the case.
A 19th century Naive School - oil painting - portrait of a racing pigeon with pigeon loft and landscape behind, 36 x 45 cm, dated 1876, in rosewood frame with gilt inner slip and glazed (see illustration). CONDITION REPORT: The painting is sealed at the back. It is definitely not painted on canvas but some form of board. We have looked at the picture under a UV light and do not think that there has been any repairs or restoration. There is very feint blurriness around the left and right hand edges of the neck and above the head but we do not think that this is restoration. The condition is generally very good and we cannot see any lifting paint or any losses. The gilt slip has some minor losses to the gesso and there is some rubbing to the gilding. The outer rosewood veneered frame is in generally good condition with only minor nibbles and imperfections.
Early 20th century school, oil painting, three quarter length portrait of a nude woman. Canvas 83 x 46 cm, with signature "Laura Knight". CONDITION REPORT: We do not think that this painting has anything to do with Laura Knight unfortunately. In our opinion it is a copy and simply does not have the quality. The canvas has had one small repair behind the eyebrow and there is some overpainting here. There are other minor areas that may have been touched in also. There is a slight crush to the canvas just below the left hand facing shoulder. There are some nibbles to the oil around the extremities of the canvas. The painting is unframed. Other than the minor blemishes mention the condition is generally good.
