Sir Francis Grant, 1803-1878, full length portrait of Lt Colonel Joseph Walker Pease 1820-1882 of Hesslewood, late MP for Hull and Lt Col of the First East Yorkshire Rifle Volunteers, oil on canvas, 84" x 50". A plaque beneath the portrait reads, "Presented to Joseph Walker Pease of Hesslewood JP DL Lt Col of The First East Yorkshire Rifle Volunteers late MP by his friends in Hull and neighbourhood in recognition of the great services rendered by him to the Conservative cause. Sir Francis Grant RA". On the back of the picture there is an invitation to Sir Francis Grant to attend a dinner at the Haberdashers Company on 18th June 1873 "to meet his royal highness Prince Arthur". On the back of this card there is an hand written inscription similar to the plaque. Francis Grant was a self-taught painter, who after a slow start first exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1834, with a sporting picture. A succession of other sporting pictures followed, before he became established as a successful portrait painter. He became highly fashionable and his subjects included The Queen, Palmerston, and many other well-known people. Grant became ARA in 1842, and RA in 1851. In 1866, on the death of Charles Eastlake PRA, Edwin Landseer was offered the Presidency of the Royal Academy. He turned this down, and Grant was then elected and was knighted soon afterwards. Under Grant`s leadership, the Royal Academy moved from the National Gallery to Burlington House. It was also under Grant that the Chantry Bequest fund was set up. There is a very similar full length portrait of General Sir James Hope Grant, the artist`s brother in the National Gallery of Scotland and there are approximately 20 paintings by or attributed to Grant in the National Portrait Gallery. There are also four paintings in the Royal Collection. THE SITTER; Lt Col Joseph Walker Pease 1820-1882 According to an obituary in the Hull Daily Mail, Colonel Pease was born in Hull in 1820 , the son of Joseph Robinson Pease. He was educated at Rugby, after which he joined his father`s bank. He married Barbara Catherine Palmer, of Withcote Hall, Leicestershire, and after displaying an early interest in public affairs, was elected chairman of the Conservative party in Hull retaining the position until 1879. In 1857, he became chairman of the Hull and Withernsea Railway Company and played a leading part in the restoration of Withernsea Church. In 1858, he was elected to the board of the Hull Dock Company and was subsequently appointed its chairman, a position he held until his death. The following year, he took an active part in the establishment of the East Yorkshire Rifle Volunteers, joining it as a captain. He achieved the rank of lieutenant colonel, a position he retained until he retired in 1876. During this time he was also chairman of the committee which carried out the restoration of Holy Trinity Church in the city. Col Pease was also a Justice of the Peace, a deputy-lieutenant of the East Riding, a director of the Yorkshire Insurance Company and for many years chairman of the Hull Charity Trustees. In 1873, Col Pease won a by-election for the Conservative Party. He failed to be returned in a general election the following year but in recognition of his zealous efforts to retain the seat, the party paid his election expenses and he was also presented with a full-size portrait - believed to be the one to be sold by Ewbank - in oil in a ceremony at the Royal Institution. In a separate presentation, the Conservative working men presented him with a magnificent silver epergne inscribed "Presented to Lt-Col Pease, JP, DL by the Conservative working men of Kingston-upon-Hull as a testimony of their high esteem and respect for his honourable and upright character in their appreciation of the great services rendered by him to the Conservative cause. Hull, April 1874". He died in 1882, aged 63. This painting has been in store for nearly a quarter of a century. "We are grateful to Hull City Library for their help in cataloguing this lot".

STEPHEN M. WIENS (BRITISH 1871-1956), DAPHNE, 1919. alabaster herm, naturalistically carved with her soulful face looking down at the berried laurel tendrils enveloping the flared square stem, on a moulded square plinth base, signed lower right side S. Wiens/Sculpst /1919. 178cm high, 35cm deep, Notes: Stephen Wiens is recorded by the Tate Gallery as a portrait painter and sculptor, a grandson of the German poet Ferdinand Freiligrath. He was born in London, but educated partly in Germany. Having studied at the Royal Academy Schools from 1890, he exhibited at the R.A. from 1893. Although the Tate holds a small bronze of his of 1906, his works appear to come on the market only rarely.

A VERY RARE ENGLISH TRANSITIONAL RAPIER WITH BRASS HILT DECORATED WITH PORTRAIT BUSTS OF WILLIAM AND MARY, CIRCA 1690, with straight double-edged blade cut with a running wolf mark and stamped with the inscription `SAHAGVM` within a short fuller on each side at the forte (pitting), brass hilt comprising short down-curved quillon with flattened globular terminal, inner and outer ring-guards each interrupted by a central moulding and filled with a sprung-in plate, the plates each chiselled with a religious scene on the outer face and a mounted figure inside, retaining traces of gilding and black paint probably for funerary purposes, knuckle-guard interrupted by a foliate moulding and joined to the rings by an additional bar front and back, and spherical pommel chiselled against a matted ground with the crowned Royal monograms `WR` and `MR` on the front and the back, each divided by the respective crowned portrait busts and contained within a beadwork frame, and the grip retaining its original spiral binding of alternating thicknesses of plaited brass wire, 81.4cm; 32in blade. The decoration of the pommel is notably rare: it would appear that this sword is the only example of its type extant. A sword with a hilt of similar form inscribed `God save King William and Queen Mary` is preserved in the Royal Armouries, Leeds. See A. R. Dufty 1974, p. 25 and pl. 50.

A GENTLEMAN`S VEST, MILITARY OR CIVILIAN, CIRCA 1790-1810, of white cotton, single-breasted, with ten cotton-covered buttons and three pockets, showing signs of enlargement (some staining). Vests, or waistcoats, of this style were worn by gentlemen with both military and civilian coats at the period indicated. From its date, this vest is most likely to have been worn by General George Vaughan Hart, possibly with one of the frocks in this collection. This is almost certainly that shown in the portrait on p.69

A pair of tassets of similar design form part of an armour in the former George F. Harding Collection, now belonging to the Art Institute, Chicago. See W. Karcheski 1995, p. 47. Another pair are shown in a late 16th century portrait depicting a Knight of the Order of St John of Malta in armour. See G. F. Laking 1920-2, Vol. IV, fig. 1157.
