Attributed to EDWIN HARRIS The Letter, portrait of Newlyn model Louisa Cook Thomas Beckerleg Circa 1890 Oil on linen (fragment) Unsigned 37 x 39.5cm Note: The simply dressed model in black blouse with brooch at her neck, pauses thoughtfully whilst composing a letter, pen poised, inkwell open before her. Although unsigned, this is a classic Harris composition; a charming rather than gritty subject, acutely observed and masterfully executed. The familiar dark haired sitter gazes wistfully into space. As in so many of Harris's compositions she is lit from a single light source - the window to her left, a light net curtain hangs at the window and a plant, probably a geranium, is positioned on the right of the window. The brushstrokes are fine and controlled, the depiction of the face and hands are particularly beautiful and accomplished. Only in the white areas of paint such as the curtains and paper are the brushstrokes looser and less refined. Although damaged, this is a charming work by a very adept hand. Condition Report: Much scratching and surface damage, some paint lifted, though face and hands mostly unaffected. The linen was probably mounted on board but has subsequently been removed. 1cm hole centre right
DAME LAURA KNIGHT RA Fragment from 'Ernest The Tramp and his Wife' depicting the head and upper right hand side of 'Mr Ernest' holding a duck, against swirling clouds in an azure sky Oil on canvas Unsigned, painted circa 1913 157 x 157 x 260cm, an extremely large triangular section of a major work by Knight This painting was 'lost' for many years, the only known record of it being a black and white photograph in the files of the Witt Library at the Courtauld Institute. This section of the painting has languished for decades at Trewoofe in Lamorna, Cornwall, the property of Laura Knight's close friends, neighbours and fellow artists Charles and Ella Naper. The complete painting is illustrated on page 24 of Rosie Broadley's book 'Laura Knight Portraits' which accompanied the National Portrait Gallery's 2013 exhibition. The handsome Mr Ernest was well documented in Knight's autobiography 'Oil paint and grease paint'. He and his equally striking wife were described as 'tramps' by Laura but this is not a derogatory description as she held them in very high regard, relying heavily upon them to organise the Knight's move into Oakhill, their Lamorna home in 1913. Laura found him a wonderful subject and in this excerpt she describes him: "He was like a Greek God, six feet four inches high with gold curls, perfect features and torso." He was clearly an extraordinary character; childlike, yet speaking six languages, with the strength of an ox, landscaping the whole of the garden at Oakhill with granite boulders and also iron pergolas that he carried on his back all the way from Penzance, some five miles away. We do not know how the work came to be in the possession of the Napers, but they were intimate friends with Laura and painted together frequently. The Napers had a very large studio at Trewoofe where many paintings, mostly by Charles Naper were stored well into the 1960s. As it was such a large painting it is not surprising that it was kept in the Naper's capacious studio but we do not know why it remained there after the Knights left Lamorna. Another quote from Knight's autobiography might give some clue: "What nightmares these big canvases are to an artist! The storage and the bore of them if they are not disposed of". This triangular fragment was cut to fit the gable end of the Napers' studio, presumably by Charles as some kind of draught excluder. We must conclude that the rest of the painting depicting the gypsy-like beauty of Mrs Ernest, has long since been destroyed. However, it is wonderful that this segment has survived, as it comes from a very important period in Knight's work, one of tremendous output where she had recently and joyously discovered working from the subconscious. There is an vigorous exuberance in the work of this period and it is very apparent in this portrait of Mr Ernest. Although a fragment, this is a significant work by one of this country's best loved artists.

Miss S A Harding (British, 19th Century) - Portrait of Mrs Margaret Carter, mother of Elizabeth Carter (1717-1806), oil on canvas, 44 x 36 cm. Provenance: By descent at Carter House, Deal, Kent. Old inscription re the sitter to the reverse. A damage by her eyes, foxing to her chest, dirty and with craquelure overall. Inscribed to the reverse: "copy of a portrait of Margaret, wife of Nicholas Carter, DD, Rector of Woodchurch in Kent, and sole daughter and heir of Richard Swayne Esq. of Bere Regis in the County of Dorset, mother of Elizabeth Carter and John Carter Esq. of Deal in Kent, and Margaret, wife of Thomas Pennington ... copied by Miss S A Harding, 1861" Elizabeth Carter (1717 - 1806) was one of the most remarkable and learned women of the 18th century. Tutored by her clergyman father, she taught herself ancient and modern languages, history, geography, astronomy and mathematics. She was also most proficient in needlework and domestic science. Elizabeth Carter rapidly gained a reputation as a poet, essay writer and translator of Epictetus, the Greek philosopher. She made a decision not to marry so that she could continue to study and write and remain independent. She became a member of the 'Bluestockings' a group of likeminded, freethinking literary women. She was praised in society circles as an example of what women could achieve in the enlightened 18th century England. Modern feminists now acknowledge that she made female intellectual endeavour respectable.
