In 1867 Charles-Emile Paris left the Parisian site due to the new law forbidding the emission of industrial smoke in the capital, and founded a new factory at Le Bourget (Seine) at the site of a Louis XV hunting lodge. The new plant was destroyed during the war of 1870 and ruined Charles-Emile Paris; he had to sell the land in order to rebuild the factory on the leased site. The business was successful and the number of employees grew steadily and subsequently a retail shop was opened at rue de Paradis in the 10th arrondissement of Paris in 1876It was a dynamic and innovative firm, which ensured its success. Among the most notable and prestigious of its achievements was the supply of enamels (1847) for the tomb of Napoleon at the Invalides, decorative mosaic enamels at the Casino de Monte-Carlo (1879), and winning a number of highly prestigious awards at the Paris International Exhibitions in 1867, 1878 and 1889 in various categories.

WILLIAM EVANS OF ETON (1798-1877)THE PASS OF KENMARE (MOLLS GAP), CO. KERRY (circa 1835)titled l.r. inscribed versoPurchased direct by me from Mrs Drury / (granddaughter of William Evans)watercolour31.0 x 47.0 cm/12 x 18 1/2 inProvenance: By descent to Mrs Cicely Drury Wessex Art Gallery, where purchased by the present ownerA large group of Evans' watercolours of Ireland were recently exhibited at the National Gallery of Ireland in 2013. Aidan Dunne, writing for the Irish Times, said that, |In exploring Galways and Mayo, Evans and a few precursors and contemporaries...were pioneers. Evans seems to have been guided by HD Inglis' account of a journey through the western counties, published in 1834...He is an attentive, scrupulous observer of the texture and atmosphere of the place, conveying a sense of extreme beauty allied with inhospitable desolation.| (1) The present work is unusual as Evans travelled primarily in County Galway and Mayo, rather than County Kerry. He is however recorded as having painted Tralee Bay, Co. Kerry (2), which was exhibited No.45 at the Society of Painters in Watercolours 41st exhibition in 1845. Mrs Drury was most probably the Cicely Drury who gave a watercolour of Snowden to Eton College's Collection (COLL B SF 003 02).Bibliography: (1) Aidan Dunne - A Window on Life in the West before the Famine - The Irish Times, 25.06.2013 (last accessed, 08/01/2019, https://www.irishtimes.com/culture/a-window-on-life-in-the-west-before-the-famine-1.1441194) (2) The Art Union: Monthly Journal... - June 1st, 1845 (London) - p.107

PETER DE WINT, OWS (1784-1849)MANOR HOUSE AND CHURCH, LYTES CART, SOMERSETInscribed Lytes Cary/6th Oct,r 1841 on the reversePencil and watercolour23 x 31.5 cm/9 x 12.5 inProvenance: Christie's South Kensington, 5th July 2006, Lot 522Provenance: With The Fine Art society, London.It has been suggested that the inscription on the reverse of the watercolour is in the hand of De Wint's wife, Harriet.Nicholas Pevsner, South and West Somerset Middlesex, 1958, describes Lytes Cary as "a mixed building", with parts dating from the 14th to the 20th century. The church was probably built about 1343, whereas the hall is ascribed to the mid-15th century, but the windows, porch and bay are c. 1515-20. The south viewing wing with the great parlour dates from 1533 and is advanced in its design for that date. Two miles from the village of Charlton Mackrell, near Ilchester, the medieval manor house of Lytes Cary stands among green fields, the garden enclosed by a line of noble elms and limes. From the 13th to the 18th century it was the home of the Lyte family, whose connection with the house ended nearly two hundred years ago, when the property was sold, and one side of its courtyards was rebuilt as a farmhouse. Today the story of the house down the centuries is explained by an irregular group of grey stone buildings, ranging from the 14th century chapel, 15th century hall and 16th century additions on the south front to the 18th century farm building on the north and the west front built in 1907. The Lytes of Lytes Cary - It is known that the fertile land of the hamlet of Cary (called |Curi| in the Domesday Book) was farmed since Roman times, and a Roman villa has been unearthed beside the Ilchester-Bath road. After the Conquest the manor was held by Humphrey Orescuil, an ancestor of the Gurney family of Sandford Orcas. The Lytes first appear on the scene in 1286, when the tenant of the Gurneys at | Kari| was one William Le Lyte (the name is the Middle English version of the |little |used by Chaucer) who was sergeant-at-law under Edward I and died in 1316. It is believed that Williams' grandson, Peter, built the chapel in 1343, for in that year the transfer of a chantry to Lytes Cary from the adjacent Tuckerscary is recorded. Moreover, fragments of an earlier piscina (possibly belonging to the original chapel which William Le Lyte built on the site between 1286 and 1316 are incorporated in the present building.

Finding you and your household in Fiji is the expression I treasure most and look back to with most delight in all my wanderings...' signed 'Goodbye and good luck, Rupert Brooke'.
