SEYMOUR JOSEPH GUY (1824-1910) Portrait of John Ruskin, signed with monogram ''SJ' Guy N.Y.' (New York) and dated 1897, oil on canvas, 30 x 25cm Seymour Joseph Guy, artist and member of the National Academy of Design, born and trained in London but emigrated to New York in 1854 Footnote: In the mid to late 1890's Ruskin's great friend William Holman Hunt arranged one of the foremost photographers of the day Frederick Hollyer to photograph Ruskin at his home in Brantwood, Coniston where Hunt may well have also arranged the pose. Whereas an oil copy of the photograph by Dutch artist Garschagan executed in 1902 is known, the above painting executed five years earlier in date by Seymour Joseph Guy appears also to be a copy of the photograph which has, until recently, not been recorded. (for further information please see Dr. James S. Dearden 'The Portraits of John Ruskin' pg. 180) Provenance At some stage sold by Hirschl & Adler Galleries, Fifth Avenue, New York to an American Collector as 'English School'.

DANTE GABRIEL ROSSETTI (1828-1882) Portrait of Dr Thomas Gordon Hake, signed with monogram and dated 1872, conté crayon, 44 x 29.5cm Exh: Royal Academy of Arts, London Rossetti Exhibition 1973 No.74 Illus: The frontispiece for "The Poems of Thomas Gordon Hake", Elkin Matthews and John Lane (pubs), London 1894 Prov: By family descent Notes: Lots 274 and 275 depict respectively the English physician and poet Dr Thomas Gordon Hake (1809-1895) and his son George Gordon Hake (1847-1903), both of whom were to become great friends of Rossetti in the artist's later years. Rossetti first became aware of Dr T.G. Hake through publications of his poetry, which the artist admired greatly. They first met in 1869 and communicated by post for the next nine years, exchanging views and advice on the art of poetry. Not long after their first meeting Rossetti's health deteriorated dramatically and Dr T.G. Hake became a great aid, companion and physician to him, even taking him into his own home in Roehampton in 1872. At the same time his son, George Gordon Hake, was visiting from Oxford and assisted in caring for Rossetti. Together with the artist and poet William Bell Scott they accompanied Dante Gabriel to a house in Scotland placed at his disposal to promote his recovery. From there they moved on to a farmhouse at Trowan, which is where these drawings were executed. George had thoughts of pursuing a career in journalism but Rossetti persuaded him to stay on instead as his secretary and companion, first at Trowan and from September 1872 at Kelmscott. Their working relationship continued until 1877, when the artist's ferocious temper became too much to bear although George remained a helper and a friend. George Gordon Hake went on to have a distinguished career as an archaeologist, working for the British colonial authorities in Cyprus, and many of his finds can still be seen in the British Museum. His later life, until his death, was spent in Mashonaland, East Africa, and his papers are to be found in the archives of Rhodes House, Oxford. The drawings are unusual in their depiction of men rather than women and mark Rossetti's return to comparative normality after the complete breakdown of his health. They are an extraordinary feat of draughtsmanship at such a turbulent period in the artist's life. Indeed, excluding the portrait of Theodore Watts-Dunton, the artist's brother, William Michael Rossetti, believed them to be the best of Dante Gabriel's male portraits.
