Isaac Oliver (Anglo-French, c. 1565-1617) Portrait miniature of Thomas Fones (d. 1638) (later Fownes), Mayor of Plymouth watercolour on vellum, oval, 5cm (2in) high Provenance: The sitter Thomas Fones (died 1638) Mayor of Plymouth 1612 and 1619, who married secondly Joanne Hele, By direct descent to the Reverend Thomas Fownes (died 1808) who married secondly Ann Vannam Somerville (died 1812) Their third son John Yarde Fownes (1772-1839) who married secondly in 1805, Hannah (died 1814) elder daughter and co heir of Edward Curtis of Mardyke House, Clifton, Bristol, Their elder son, Edward Curtis Fownes (1806-1892) who married in 1848 Mary Margaret Haythorne, Thence by descent to Mrs Winifred S Parsons (nee Haythorne) mother of the late owner, Sir Richard Edmund Clement Fownes Parsons (1928-2016) Other Notes: Born in Rouen, Isaac Oliver came to London in 1568 with his Huguenot parents Peter and Epiphany Oliver to escape the Wars of Religion in France. He then studied miniature painting under Nicholas Hilliard. In 1602 he married, as his second wife, Sara, daughter of the portrait painter Marcus Gheeraerts the Elder (c.1520-c.1590) and his wife Susannah de Critz. His work is at Windsor Castle. The sitter in the present miniature, Thomas Fones, was Mayor of Plymouth in 1620, the year the Mayflower sailed. Judging by the shape and style of the sitter's collar, this work could be dated to circa 1612-1615. The vellum support may have been mounted on a playing card, such as a suit of hearts, for instance. Heart cards were popular whereas the suit of spades was avoided as it was deemed negative. Elizabethan Treasures: Miniatures by Hilliard and Oliver, 21 February - 19 May 2019, is the first major exhibition on Tudor and Jacobean portrait miniatures in the UK for over 35 years. The exhibition will bring together key works from the National Portrait Gallery and major loans from public and private collections, including miniatures that haven't been seen in public in the UK since the early 1980s, to showcase the careers of the most skilled artists of the period, Nicholas Hilliard (1547? - 1619) and French born Isaac Oliver (c.1565 - 1617).

The Paper Ladies are meticulously sculpted and proportionate, exhibiting both the wonderful skillset of their maker and the craftsmanship of women during this period. Each Paper Lady is fashioned with full dress skirts, a cape, headcovering and accessories. Quote from Julia Norris' great grandson, David: "One talent she pursued with distinction. From a variety of papers prepared by long soaking she modelled her paper ladies fashioning their garments from another stock of papers kept dry and chosen for staying power. These figures were sold for charity and some bought by the Queen herself. The charity may have gained regal suppport from one of the rare moments of amusement or from the object's intrinsic merit of originality." Condition: The Paper Ladies are stored in two non-archival boxes and filled with some non-archival tissue to protect and help hold their form while stored. The paper used to make the Paper Ladies' is heavily acidified and demonstrates both some "foxing" and "browning" typical of the acidification of paper goods. There is considerable dust on the surface of each of them. They are in fair-poor condition as per Lucy Commoner's condition rating system. Albeit for textiles, her system applies to these paper objects. The Paper Ladies would benefit from the recommendations below. Recommendations: -surface cleaning -archival storage -preventive conservation steps should be taken to limit light and humidity -integrative pest control management should be put in place to protect them Report prepared by Tatiana Verdon

*Antonio Pisano called Pisanello (c. 1393-1455), Filippo Maria Visconti (Duke of Milan, 1412-47), bronze medal, bust to right wearing hat with soft top; long inscription giving his titles of Duke of Milan, Count of Pavia and Angera, Lord of Genoa, rev., the duke in full armour on horseback left holding lance upright; to the right, a page on horseback and between them, an armed horseman to front; in the background, a mountainous landscape with buildings and, on the right, a colossal female statue stands amid the buildings; signed below, OPVS PISANI PICTORIS, 102.5mm (Hill 21; Arm. I, 8, 23; Kress 3 = Pollard 2; Syson & Gordon 66, 2.24), pierced, a few knocks in obverse field, a very fine contemporary cast with brown patina. Much has been written on the subject of Pisanello’s medals for he is universally acknowledged as the inventor of the portrait medal, an art form that he made popular and which flourished thereafter in Italy and beyond. His first medal has generally been regarded as that of John VIII Palaeologus who was in Italy in 1438-39 to attend the ecumenical council of the Greek and Latin churches held initially in Ferrara and later moved to Florence. The present medal of Filippo Maria Visconti has also been put forward as a contender for Pisanello’s first medal – and Syson and Gordon in Pisanello, Painter to the Renaissance Court (2001) date the medal of Visconti to c.1435-40 and that of the Byzantine emperor to c.1438-41. They show how the chivalric reverses have been influenced by, in the case of Visconti, Pisanello’s fresco of St. George and the Princess of Silena (c.1434-38) and in the case of John VIII Palaeologus, Pisanello’s painting of The Vision of St. Eustace (c. 1438-42). The duke was notoriously shy of his appearance (as related by his secretary Pier Candido Decembrio) and would only allow Pisanello to portray him, so that all other depictions of him depend upon the medal.

Jacopo Nizzolo da Trezzo, Gianello della Torre of Cremona (celebrated horologist and engineer), bronze medal, IANELLVS TVRRIAN CREMON HOROLOG ARCHITECT, draped and bearded bust right, rev., VIRTVS NVNQ DEFICIT, the Fountain of Science: seven men and a boy receiving water from the fountain, 81.2mm (Attwood 91; Arm. I, 170, 38; Kress 441a = Pollard 501; Scher, Currency of Fame 55), tiny piercing at edge, some scratches in obverse field, an extremely fine contemporary cast of high quality with dendritic patterns in the brown patina. The present medal reveals two flaws in the obverse field which appear to replicate cracks in the original wax model from which it was cast. Pollard called the reverse the Fountain of Virtue, given the inscription and, following Kress, suggested the medal commemorates the making of a famous clock for Charles V in 1529. Attwood retains the more generally held interpretation of the reverse as the Fountain of Science. The portrait bears out Leone Leoni’s 1556 description of the sitter as “this bull in human form” and there is a marble bust of him in Toledo. An automaton of a friar supposedly made by Gianello della Torre and commissioned by Philip II is in the Smithsonian Museum, Washington DC. Provenance: H.G.

Coins of the ‘Declaration’ type, known to contemporaries as ‘Exurgat money’, are very rare outside the royal mints of Oxford and Bristol, and their appearance at other royalist mints is likely to have some special significance, though this is not always obvious, BNJ 1992, p.119.
