Depicting the dining room at Charleston Manor, the present lot is an informal and intimate glimpse of Birley’s personal life. Like his portraiture, the present lot does not simply represent the view at Charleston, but, through the inclusion of paintings, ornaments and fine furnishings, presents the artist as a refined and cultured gentleman. The painting is executed in oil on a canvas support. The canvas tension is slightly slack. The paint layers are in a good, stable condition overall. There are some localised areas of wear and abrasion. The painting is unvarnished and there is a light layer of dirt present. Framed 84.5 x 73cm

Martin Folkes was an eminent lawyer who held the position of Solicitor-General in 1695 and that of Attorney-General to Catherine, Queen Dowager of King Charles II, in 1697. His eldest son, also Martin (1690-1754) who is shown here beside his sisters, was President of the Royal Society and married, in 1715, Lucy Bradshaw.The painting is executed in oil on a canvas support which is unlined and has been stored rolled for some time. The edges of the canvas are frayed and there is paint loss in these areas. The original canvas has become brittle with age and there are several tears, caused by brittle fracture of the threads rather than impact. Losses to the paint layer follow the tears but have also been caused by the painting being rolled. The losses are not extensive and most of the composition is still intact. The paint layer is friable in many areas and requires consolidation. An old discoloured varnish layer is present which has darkened with age and no longer adequately saturates the paint layer.

Ann Forbes (1745-1834) Self Portrait with a portfolio and porte-crayon pastel on paper 52.5 x 41cm Provenance: F. A. H. Pitman by 1957, By whom given to Sir Christopher Chancellor Literature: Neil Jeffares, Dictionary of Pastellists before 1800, online edition 2008, no. J.3196.101 Ann Forbes was born in Inveresk, East Lothian, the daughter of Hew Forbes, Principal Clerk of Session in Edinburgh from 1744, and his wife Margaret, daughter of the Scottish portraitist, William Aikman (1682-1731). One of her uncles was General John Forbes (1707-1759) who led the attack on Fort Duquesne in 1758 during the French and Indian War (1754-1763). She worked in both oil and pastel as a portraitist and copyist, but only a handful of her pastel portraits are recorded. A family friend, Robert Chalmers (1727-1802) who was a Comptroller-General, initially recognised her talent in drawing in crayon and arranged for her to receive a stipend of £200 a year for three years. Ann subsequently left for Rome where she is known to have trained with Gavin Hamilton (1723-1798) and James Nevay (c.1730 - after 1811) from 1768. She had great ambition to become a renowned and sought-after portraitist and whilst in Rome, she increasingly turned to oils. Amongst her clients in Rome was Sir William Hamilton (1730-1803) who asked her to copy a portrait of George III. She returned to London due to poor health and exhibited four paintings at the Royal Academy in 1772, two of which were engraved by John Raphael Smith, including one of Lord Polwarth in van Dyck costume. Soon after, Ann retired to Edinburgh where she made a living as a drawing teacher and portraitist. A painting of her holding a portfolio and porte-crayon by David Allen (1744-1796) is in the Scottish National Portrait Gallery. Scattered spotting, some minor abrasions, possibly some bloom. There appears to be some skinning to the paper in the sitter's face and in her left shoulder. Staining under the portfolio. There appears to be some minor paper debris to the reverse which can be observed from the front. Surface dirt under glass. Not examined out of frame. Framed 59.5 x 48cm

Studio of James Seymour (1702-1752) Portrait of a grey stallion, probably Old Crab (1722-1750) led by a groom in the livery of Lord Portmore oil on canvas 61 x 74.5cm Provenance: Estate of the 7th Earl of Craven (1957-1983), Sale, Phillips, London, 11 December 1984, lot 119, as 'Attributed to Robert Byng', when bought by the present owner The horse depicted here is in all probability Old Crab (1722-50) - who on the strength of a posthumous engraving by Houston after Thomas Spencer from 1755 of Crab (also held by a groom) surmounted with the arms of the 2nd Earl of Portmore (1700-85) is said by later authorities to have belonged to the Earl, though contemporary reports claim the horse belonged to Thomas Panton and retired to stud whilst in his ownership in 1730. Panton was however connected with Portmore and as the latter certainly owned a son of Old Crab and raced him as Portmore’s Crab, it is probable the Earl was a part owner of Old Crab with Panton and as the Earl was a leading figure in the horse racing and breeding world, his arms on the print would have added prestige on all fronts. The younger Crab was anyway a grey without the very apparent black that appears over both the quarters of the horse in the present painting and in the Houston print after Seymour. The livery of the groom in the present oil and in the 1755 engraving is certainly that of the Earl of Portmore. We are very grateful to David Oldrey for his help in suggesting the identity and ownership of the horse here depicted. The painting is executed in oil on canvas support which has been lined. The canvas is in plane and the paint layer is stable overall. The varnish is clear, even and glossy. Areas of overpaint are present in the background and have slightly discoloured but are acceptable from a normal viewing distance. Framed 81 x 93cm

After Sir Thomas Lawrence Portrait miniature of Lieutenant General the Hon. Sir Galbraith Lowry Cole (1772-1842) watercolour on ivory 12cm Provenance: From the estate of the late Barry Lock (1934-2021) The sitter was the second son of William Cole, 1st Earl of Enniskillen (1736-1803) and Anne (d. 1802), daughter of Galbraith Lowry-Corry of Tyrone and sister of Armar, 1st Earl Belmore. Aged only fourteen in 1787, Cole was commissioned a cornet in 12th Dragoon Guards and quickly rose through the ranks, being promoted to Lieutenant Colonel by 1794. He served in numerous military campaigns and conflicts, including the Irish Rebellion of 1798 and the Peninsular Wars in Spain and Portugal. In 1809, he was given command of the 4th Division in the Peninsular War under Wellington, played a key role in the Battle of Albuera in 1811 and further distinguished himself at Salamanca (1812). He missed the Battle of Waterloo on 18th June1815, much to Wellington’s dismay, because he was on his honeymoon, having married three days earlier Lady Frances Harris (d. 1847), daughter of the 1st Earl of Malmesbury (1746-1820). In recognition of his military achievements, Cole was knighted in 1813, invested as a Knight Grand Cross of the Order of the Bath in 1815 and was later promoted to full General in 1830. Aside from his military career, Cole served as MP in the Irish House of Commons for the family seat of Enniskillen between 1797-1800 and was appointed Governor of Mauritius from 1823-1828 and Governor of the Cape of Good Hope from 1828-1833. The original oil portrait of the sitter (76.2 x 63.8cm) by Sir Thomas Lawrence, dated to circa 1811-1812, was sold at Christie's New York on 28th January 2009, lot 33, for $230,500.
