The artist Matthew Shepperson (1785-1874) attained fair success as a portrait copyist, and exhibited paintings at the Royal Academy between 1811 and 1821. He also taught painting in circles of nobility, mainly socially prominent young ladies. Circa 1823-24 he made a copy of John Hoppner's painting of Horatio Nelson, which is now in the collections of the National Maritime Museum. In August 2010, some of the paintings from Shepperson's collection (bequeathed to his heirs) were sold at auction; the lots included Velazquez's Portrait of a Gentleman, which sold for £3 million.

Victoria (Queen of Great Britain, 1819-1901). Portrait of Prince Friedrich Wilhelm of Prussia, after Anton Hähnisch (1817-1897), watercolour, with traces of pencil, depicting Prince Friedrich ( later Wilhelm II, German Emperor) as a baby, seated, wearing a white lace dress with pink sash and shoulder ribbons, a white lace bonnet, and blue shoes, holding a silver rattle in his right hand, and with the outline of a Mr. Punch toy at his side, signed in pencil 'V.' lower right, 21.5 x 16 cm (8.5 x 6.25 ins), mounted, framed and glazed (Qty: 1)Provenance: Given by Queen Victoria to Miss Sarah Hildyard ('Tilla'), governess to the royal children; sold by her descendants at Sotheby's, 25th January, 1968, where purchased by the current owner. Prince Friedrich, later Wilhelm II (1859-1941) - or 'Kaiser Bill' as he was popularly known - was the eldest child of Frederick III, German Emperor and King of Prussia, and his wife Victoria, Princess Royal, eldest child of Queen Victoria. Anton Hähnisch's portrait miniature of Prince Friedrich was commissioned by Queen Victoria, and a second version, painted by the artist expressly for the Queen, is housed in the Royal Collection (RCIN 420524). On 30th December 1859 the Princess Royal wrote to Queen Victoria: "Hähnisch is painting my miniature and Baby's – … Baby's is quite horrid, too dreadful, so affected and disagreeable, not the least like the child; but he paints quite beautifully only he uses too much violet lilac and pink in the face, not the pure, transparent freshness of Sir William Ross". On 11th February 1860 Victoria wrote again to her mother: "Hähnisch is copying Baby's Picture for you, and I hope you will have it soon". The Princess evidently valued the finished work as she wrote of the artist some months later, "he paints very well you know", and the Queen must have approved of the picture to have taken the trouble to attempt her own copy of it. Queen Victoria didn't meet her grandson until September 1860, when she wrote that he was: "a fine fat child, with a beautiful white soft skin. We felt so happy to see him at last."

After an English School painting of 1623 Portrait of Stephen Phesant (1617-1660) and Mary Phesant (b.1616) inscribed "Natus 22 / May 1617 upper left, Stilo Anglia / Pict. 7 Jan. / 1622 upper centre; Nata 7 Jan / 1615 upper right oil on canvas, unframed 112 x 104cm (44 x 41in) Other Notes: The present portrait is copied from the original which was with Philip Mould in 2010 at £220,000 and came originally from Huntingdonshire, Upwood House, Huntingdonshire; The Collection of Lt. Col Arthur Moubray J.P; by descent The original charming and unusual portrait was painted in England in 1622, and shows Stephen Phesant with his elder sister, Mary. The picture is given an endearing characterisation by the linked hands at the centre of the composition. Despite being a portrait of two siblings, the picture is nonetheless a relatively early instance of affection and tender feeling in seventeenth century English portraiture and breaks away from the conventional restraints which, at least in adult portraiture, forced artists to concentrate on presenting a sitter’s prestige and wealth. While the two sitters here are evidently presented in expensive costumes, the addition of the casually held spinning top in Stephen’s right hand ensures that the picture is viewed with an appropriate informality. In the early twentieth century the original portrait was in the collection of Arthur Moubray at Upwood Manor in Huntingdonshire. Moubray had inherited the manor house and its contents from ancestors by the name of Hussey, whose family had been in possession of the manor since 1649, when it was bought from the Cromwell family by Peter Phesant, or Pheasant, (1584-1649) in the 1640s. The records of the Lincolnshire Pedigrees (as published in 1904 by the Canon Maddison for the Harleian Society) show that Peter’s eldest son, Stephen Phesant, was born on 22nd May 1617, the date recorded above the boy’s head in the present portrait. Stephen’s elder sister, Mary, was baptised on 19th January 1615, a date consistent with a birthday of 7th January, as inscribed above the girl’s head in the portrait. Further confirmation of the identity comes in the form of a related portrait, evidently by the same artist, of Stephen and Mary’s mother, Mary Phesant (née Bridges), who is shown in a three-quarter length portrait with her eldest daughter, Margaret, in a picture painted in about 1617. The inscription in the centre of the picture relates that the present portrait was painted to celebrate Mary’s birthday. The Phesant family were then living in Old Jewry in London, and it may be that the inscription ‘Stilo Anglia’, denoting that the picture was painted on 7th January 1622 ‘English Style’ was added by the artist to ensure that foreign viewers of the portrait were left in no doubt that the portrait was painted to celebrate the girl’s birthday. England did not adopt the Gregorian calendar until the eighteenth century, consequently the new year did not fall until 5th April; in modern (and European) date usage, therefore, Mary Phesant was born in 1616 and so the original portrait was painted in 1623. Stephen Phesant (1617-1660) was, like his father, a prominent barrister. He entered Gray’s Inn in 1624, and became a recorder, or judge, in London in 1643. He succeeded to his father’s position as a Justice of the Common Pleas in 1649, after whose death he was able to extend the family’s holdings around Upwood considerably. Stephen had two children by his wife, Sarah, and was buried at Upwood. Little is known of Mary Phesant, although judging from the £50 annuity she received from her father’s will she must have lived a relatively prosperous life. Unframed and fine. Unframed and fine.

Rose HILTON (1931-2019) Standing Nudes Oil on canvas paper Signed and dated 2000 Studio seal to the back 48 x 36.5cmThis very personal collection of pictures from the painter Rose Hilton's Botallack Moor house are those she kept about her and saw every day. Botallack was her home for 54 years during 10 of which she was married to the older, abstract painter, Roger Hilton. The house with its views across ruined mine workings to the wide sea was formed of a row of miners' cottages that Roger had spotted advertised for sale in The Times, knocked through and modernised to make a home for their young sons Bo and Fergus. Roger brought a few inherited pieces of antique furniture and the austere self portrait painted by his mother as a student at the Slade School of Art. Rose added her own casual decorative touches, described by their friend the poet W.S. Graham as, 'the Beat style.' The artists in this far flung corner of the St. Ives diaspora had always gifted and swapped pieces amongst themselves and as Rose's painting career reignited in the years after Roger's death she began buying and adding to the growing collection at Botallack. The back wall in the little kitchen hung in a stack, edge-to-edge and almost to the ceiling, featured two by Terry Frost, another from Breon O'Casey was above the upright piano, there were landscapes in the bathroom and a 'gallery' corridor wall that she continually rehung with newer works: pieces by Fergus Hilton and her friends Jeremy Le Grice and Frank Phelan, her elder son Bo Hilton (also a painter) and a pair of striking paintings that she had bought as memorials to her old friend the painter Mary Stork. The picture store in the downstairs back room that was Roger Hilton's bedroom cum studio during the last years of his life was full up, too. 'If you're an artist, you're visual, so you usually paint walls white and have flowers and nice materials and things,' Rose said, describing her style.Rose was generous almost to a fault, and when she was not occupied with painting a steady stream of friends, fellow artists and curious visitors filled this hospitable house, art historians, collectors or the regulars of her weekly life drawing classes and older friends who arrived to talk and drink and join in with singing the chapel hymns she knew by heart around the piano that she had bought from the local pub and the fire in the Long Room. Condition report: Painted surface in good condition. Frame and mount are dirty with signs of damp and mould. Some creases to canvas paper visible upper right.

Mary STORK (1938-2007)Head Gouache 39 x 27cmThis very personal collection of pictures from the painter Rose Hilton's Botallack Moor house are those she kept about her and saw every day. Botallack was her home for 54 years during 10 of which she was married to the older, abstract painter, Roger Hilton. The house with its views across ruined mine workings to the wide sea was formed of a row of miners' cottages that Roger had spotted advertised for sale in The Times, knocked through and modernised to make a home for their young sons Bo and Fergus. Roger brought a few inherited pieces of antique furniture and the austere self portrait painted by his mother as a student at the Slade School of Art. Rose added her own casual decorative touches, described by their friend the poet W.S. Graham as, 'the Beat style.' The artists in this far flung corner of the St. Ives diaspora had always gifted and swapped pieces amongst themselves and as Rose's painting career reignited in the years after Roger's death she began buying and adding to the growing collection at Botallack.

Rose HILTON (1931-2019) The Headscarf Oil on canvasStudio seal to the back 30 x 25.5cm (See illustration) This very personal collection of pictures from the painter Rose Hilton's Botallack Moor house are those she kept about her and saw every day. Botallack was her home for 54 years during 10 of which she was married to the older, abstract painter, Roger Hilton. The house with its views across ruined mine workings to the wide sea was formed of a row of miners' cottages that Roger had spotted advertised for sale in The Times, knocked through and modernised to make a home for their young sons Bo and Fergus. Roger brought a few inherited pieces of antique furniture and the austere self portrait painted by his mother as a student at the Slade School of Art. Rose added her own casual decorative touches, described by their friend the poet W.S. Graham as, 'the Beat style.' The artists in this far flung corner of the St. Ives diaspora had always gifted and swapped pieces amongst themselves and as Rose's painting career reignited in the years after Roger's death she began buying and adding to the growing collection at Botallack.
