B. PRABHA (1933-2001)Untitled (Two Boys)signed and dated 'B. Prabha, 1965' (upper right)oil on canvas56 x 38 inProvenance: Philip Richardson, Esq, Arundel, Sussex (by c.1990);Thence by descent Philip Richardson travelled to India and had a wide circle of Indian friends and contacts both there and in the UK. He met Prabha in person on at least one occasion, and may very possibly have acquired this painting direct from the artist. Badgelwar Prabha (better known as B. Prabha) began her career when there were few other leading women artists in India. Working in the 1950's and 1960's when post-independence India was in the throes of dynamic change and upheaval, Prabha utilised her unique position as one of the very few professional artists to become a medium for strong social commentary on poverty and inequality in Indian Society. She studied at the Nagpur School of Art and afterwards at the Sir J. J. School of Art, Mumbai. Soon after she married the artist and sculptor B. Vithal. Two years following that she exhibited at the Bombay Exhibition of 1958, where she won first prize. She followed that up with two solo shows at Delhi's Kumar Gallery in 1959 and 1961.Prabha had come to Bombay as a financially struggling artist, and is said to have initially sold pieces of family jewellery to raise funds. At that time she and her husband were living in a dilapidated house at Worli Naka. Their first month's rent and Prabha's paints allegedly being purchased from Vithal's first ever commission fee which he received for helping sculpt a statue of Vallabbhai Patel. Prabha's first break through came when three of her paintings were purchased by the eminent Indian scientist Homi J. Bhaba.Prabha embraced a bold, modern Indian aesthetic. She developed a style which became well known for her characteristic images of elongated pensive figures on canvases, executed in a single dominant colour. Over the years, her penchant for simplicity, perhaps to counter the myriad complexities of life, led her to develop a characteristic, elegant style that came to be instantly recognisable. Her refined aesthetic language, defined by elongated, graceful lines and figures, always guided and informed her works.The writer Shirin Bahadurji wrote of Prabha's paintings "Her figures have a haunting presence as if caught in a rare moment of stillness and silence- a single second stolen out of the bustle of daily living'' Prabha claimed that 'she was more at ease with the female form, painting men only in large murals where they blend into the backdrop'. The subject matter of her work often centred on the rural and urban poor. She was particularly concerned with the issues of hunger, homelessness and the subservient role of women in Indian life. In 1965 she executed a 'hunger' series of fourteen paintings that depicted the slums of Bombay and the 'shattered dreams of the hutments'. For three other figurative paintings by Prabha dateable to 1965, cf. Christies's, New York, March 8th 2008, Lot 22; Sotheby's, London June 16th 2009 lot 43; and Christies's London June 11th 2008, lot 76. The Brightwell's example with, unusually for Prabha, all nude sitters, has certain compositional similarities with a later 1982 work by the artist sold at Artiana Auctions, Dubai, 13th October 2016, Lot 5. That work also depicted a double portrait (of two Indian Girls wearing Saris) featured against a largely opaque background.

Elsmere, Esq. Thence by descentA copy of the 1881 William Hall, Wateridge & Owen auction catalogue is sold with the painting; together with a manuscript letter from W. Elsmere dated 25/11/1881. That letter refers to Pardon's painting of Samuel and is addressed to the original purchaser at the 10 November 1881 auction. Elsmere writes..'I am obliged by your favour of this morning, but not being too much of a judge of pictures myself, I do not feel inclined to offer a fancy price for the painting alluded to. My sole reason for wishing to possess it is that a near relative of mine sat for that picture when a child...'James 'Canterbury' Pardon was trained at the R. A. Schools and initially exhibited at the Royal Academy from addresses in London and Canterbury where he was noted in a local Directory as 'a portrait painter and carver/gilder' of 51, St.Peter's Street, Canterbury. In about 1837 he moved to the Midlands, and in 1851 he opened a portrait studio in Shrewsbury. There he painted a number of local figures including RiceWynne, Mayor of Shrewsbury and Robert Darwin (father of Charles Darwin), then a doctor at the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital.
