§ Angus McBean (British, 1904-1990) Spike Milligan - ""Milligan preserved for EMI"" - taken for a record sleeve signed lower left ""Angus McBean, London `60"" a bromide print 28 x 22cm (11 x 9in) A unique comedy genius, Milligan made his radio debut in 1949 on Opportunity Knocks before coming to prominence as one of The Goons in the 1950s. He went on to reveal his bizarre, surreal sense of humour in television programmes including The World of Beachcomber (1968-9) and the Q series (1969-82). Milligan`s publications included comic writing, verse, children`s stories and several volumes of autobiography including Depression and How to Survive It (1993), a guide drawing from his own experience. In 1994 he was presented with a British Comedy Lifetime Achievement Award. Angus McBean became one of the most significant portrait photographers of the 20th century, and was known as a photographer of celebrities, and worked in a wonderfully surreal manner. Some brown discolouration along the top edge of the mount but the image is clear and good.

§ Augustus John, OM, RA (British, 1878-1961) Study of a Girl signed centre left ""John"" pencil 49 x 34cm (19 x 13in) Provenance: A gift to St Wilfrid`s Hospice, Chichester, and sold to benefit the charity. Literature: Rebecca John writes: ""I have seen other nudes drawn in this style - probably from the late 1920s. I`m intrigued to know how the owners came into posession of the letter. Mrs Cazalet would have been Thelma Cazalet-Keir MP who knew Augustus and the Queen, later the Queen Mother . He did begin the portrait of her and although never finished, it hung at Clarence House. I am glad to have seen the letter. And yes, Francis Taylor was Elizabeth Taylor`s father and an art dealer"". The letter to the reverse reads: From Fryern Court, Fordingbridge, Hampshire: ""Sept. 23 1939 My dear Mrs Cazalet Do you think the Queen would sit for me at Windsor week-ends for an informal portrait ? It would be wonderful if she would and I would have it in my show in America which Francis Taylor is organising. I would stay in some pub and no doubt there is a suitable room in the Castle for painting. If she has a pretty costume with a hat I`m sure it would be a success and probably put Poppet in the shade. Please, please propose it to Her Majesty. Francis Taylor is taking all my beloved drawings away (many of which I tore up in a fit of madness, but he has pieced them together again!) Yours affectionately Augustus"" Torn into four and restored (see facsimile letter of provenance to the reverse). Some discolouraton around the edges and two tiny foxing spots.

§ Augustus Edwin John, OM, RA (British, 1878-1961) Portrait of Alexandra (Alick) Schepeler red chalk 35 x 25cm (14 x 10in) Provenance: Private collection, Cambridge. Exhibited: Folio Spring Exhibition, English and French Master Drawings, No.9a. Rebecca John dates the present exceptional portrait of Alick Schepeler to 1906-1907. It is one of an important group of drawings of Alick Schepeler by Augustus John, and from his best period. Three studies of the sitter are in the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, the Manchester City Art Gallery, and there are several in the USA. Alexandra (Alick) Schepeler was the embodiment of John?s romantic ideal; she was part Irish and part German and had been born in Minsk, Russia, in March 1882, making her way to England as a child through Poland. She was employed as a secretary by the Illustrated London News; hard-working and also hard partying at night, she lived for passion, both physical and romantic love. Alick met Augustus John through her friend Frieda Bloch who was studying at the Slade. John and Schepeler kept up a secret correspondence for many years, and throughout many of his other relationships. In 1907, John lived in London for a year and during this time she became his muse. John thought of Alick as an enigma and often compared her to mythological women, most often a water nymph, in his many letters - his ""rose of my soul"" and ""jeune fille mysterieuse et gaie"". He called her ""Undine"" after the female water sprites. We are grateful to Rebecca John for her assistance with the catalogue entry. Under glass and the corners look to be stuck down, with some discolouration and old glue visible and with a little crinkling.

§ Geoffrey Squire (British, 1923-2012) Summer afternoon signed lower right ""Squire"" oil on board 30 x 52cm (12 x 20in) Geoffrey Squire won a scholarship to Leeds School of Art. It was the first of several scholarships that saw him study at the Ruskin School of Art at Oxford University and then the Slade School of Fine Art at University College, London. He was immediately offered a post teaching drawing and painting at Glasgow School of Art, came north in 1947 and never looked back. He eventually became a senior lecturer and worked alongside colleagues including David Donaldson, Her Majesty`s Painter and Limner in Scotland.

Though he was an incredibly versatile artist, having originally studied sculpture, he worked mainly in oil and latterly acrylic. Condition appears fine.
