A RARE ENGLISH LIMEWOOD CARVING OF THE HEAD AND WINGS OF A CHERUB, ATTRIBUTED TO THE WORKSHOP OF GRINLING GIBBONS, LATE 17TH C 104cm hProvenance: Olive Cook (1912-2002).This newly discovered carving bears close comparison with those in Grinling Gibbons quire of St Paul's Cathedral, London of c1696-7. The quire was reordered in the 1870s, but the cherubs' heads and wings that remain in situ gaze slightly downwards, the face being planted on to the back of the head, which is constructed in at least two parts. The entire head of the present example would appear to be carved of one piece and the gaze is not so angled, but stares straight ahead. The artist and designer Olive Cook collaborated with her husband, photographer Edwin Smith, whom she married in 1954 on a series of articles on architecture, travel and Victorian popular art. Her home in Saffron Walden was gradually filled with salvaged architectural works of art, such as the present lot. It was not included in the sale of her collection at Cheffins, Cambridge, after her death being retained by a member of her family, the present vendor.++Damage and loss but unrestored, the old coat of dark brown paint chipped in places revealing white ground

Ffiona Lewis was born in Devon in 1967. She studied at the Polytechnic of Central London to achieve a BA Hons in Architecture and went on to complete her Diploma in 1990 becoming ARCUK registered the same year. Despite her architectural passion Lewis always had a passion for art and took a series of courses at Central St. Martins. In 1999, Lewis joined the Redfern Gallery to pursue her career as a professional artist. She has held regular exhibitions at the Redfern Gallery and The Northcote Gallery in London and is displayed in public collections across the UK and in New York. Lewis is interested by the social nature of the interior and the unregarded more common aspects of the everyday . Lewis uses the term the glimpse to describe her chosen subject matter, working into the surface of the boards onto which she paints scratching and scarifying to create texture. Lewis was influenced by a group of artists working in St. Ives when she met John Wells. Artists such as Patrick Heron and Rachel Nicholson, not only became friends but inspiration to her work. Lewis joined The Redfern Gallery in 1999. IMPORTANT: This lot is sold subject to Artists Resale Rights, details of which can be found in our Terms and Conditions.
