Follower of Sir Peter Lely (1618-1680), Oil on canvas, Portrait of Centenarian Hannah Lowther (1654 - 1757), Inscribed to the middle left of the canvas, 'Mrs Hannah Lowther of Mask - died the 11th of Jan 1757 at 103 years and nine days', with old auction house stencil label verso 'B.H.218 W', 125cm x 100cm, Framed. Although inscribed as 'Mrs' it is likely that Hannah was a Miss. She is believed to be the daughter of Robert Lowther, a Leeds merchant and alderman of London. Her cousin Sir John Lowther has a portrait painted by Lely, a c1684 engraving after Lely can be found in the National Portrait Gallery online archive. Hannah Lowther was a lady in waiting to Queen Anne and her sister Queen Mary, surviving them both to the extraordinary age of 103 in 1757. In the latter part of her life she lived in Scotland Yard. She has the honour of being buried in Rutland Chapel at St Georges Chapel Windsor. There is a discrepancy in regard to the age Hannah lived to, one source states 106, the other 103, sadly no record of her baptism has been found to confirm which is correct. Her relation Sir William Lowther 3rd Bt of Marske and Hooker (1727-1756) left in his will the sum of £1700 a year to his relation (Great Aunt?) Hannah Lowther, and after her to Lord George Cavendish second son of the 3rd Duke of Devonshire. Horace Walpole comments in a letter that it was remarkable that she was left a legacy of £1700 when she was 100 from a man who was 29. Although the frame attributes the painting to Lely, similar compositions of hands, dress and background can be found on portraits by Sir Godfrey Kneller

Attributed to Gainsborough Dupont (1754-1797) - 'Sketch portrait of Greenwood the Auctioneer when at the age of thirty', pencil and chalk study on grey paper, later hand titled in ink to the base of the paper and with further pencil attribution ' Drawn by Thomas Gainsborough ', and annotation to the mount stating ' From the coll of Gainsborough Dupont (the artists nephew) see back of drawing. From the coll of the late Arthur Kay Esq ', the reverse of the drawing with pencil annotation ' AIE Drawn by T Gainsborough, bought at Gainsborough Dupont's sale 1797' , 26 x 41.5cm. Provenance: This painting is purported to have been lot 30 in Christie's sale 'Drawings by T Gainsborough RA and other English Painters - The Property of Arthur Kay Esquire' of 23rd May 1930, where it was catalogued as being by T. Gainsborough and coming from the collection of Sir Herbert Jerningham. It is also stated that this drawing was included in the Gainsborough Memorial Exhibition at Ipswich in 1929. In 2008, Bateman's Auctioneers attributed this drawing to Gainsborough Dupont after consultation with British art specialist Anthony Mould and Agnews Fine Art dealers. Upon Gainsborough Dupont’s death in 1797, much of his collection was sold by Christie’s in London and at local sales in the Gainsborough’s home town of Sudbury. There is ongoing debate that some of the works attributed to Thomas Gainsborough may have actually been drawn or at least finished by his nephew. Further notes of interest : There was an auctioneer by the name of John Greenwood (1727-1792) who had auction rooms in Leicester Square and was apparently well acquainted with many of the London based artists. Thomas Gainsborough (1727-1788) painted his friend the auctioneer James Christie in 1778 (in the Getty collection). Arthur Kay (1860-1939) was a prolific art collector and critic, and the author of Treasure Trove in Art published 1939.
