A Phoebe Anne Traquair HRSA (1852-1936) A gold, silver and enamel pendant, circa 1905-06, the upper section of triangular form depicting Cupid paring love from a gold jar, the reverse with Cupid offering a gold heart, the bottom section suspended from triple-link chairs in the form of a heart depicting Cupid shooting an arrow towards earth, the reverse (lacking enamel) with Cupid sleeping, each section within a chevron engraved casing (lacking original enameled tear drop) 5cm high x 3cm wide Note: The pendant was given by George Brown Barbour (1890-1977) of Edinburgh to his fiancée Dorothy Latou Dickinson (1892-1981) of New York on the occasion of their marriage in May 1920. The pendant as first made may have been with the Barbour family prior to that date: it was personalised by the addition of the swan. Traquair was a friend of the Barbour family who had previously commissioned key examples of her crafts. George Barbour was the elder son of Dr (Alexander) Hugh (Freeland) Barbour of 4 Charlotte Square, Edinburgh, the first owner of the Bonskeid cabinet (Shapes sale number 48, lot 390), which his sister Margaret had asked Traquair to decorate as a gift to her brother. Hugh and Margaret Barbour also commissioned a fine illuminated manuscript (now with Edinburgh University) for their sister Charlotte in 1897. Traquair had met the Barbours through Dr Alexander Whyte, the Edinburgh theologian married to Margaret`s sister Jane: the Whytes` home was 7 Charlotte Square. She illustrated Dr Whyte`s published commentary on Dante and painted portraits of members of their family, including Gustavus Aird Whyte. George Barbour therefore would have been familiar with the artist`s work for most of his life. The form and subject of this pendant made it particularly appropriate as a wedding gift. Of all classical subjects Traquair was most attracted to the story of Cupid and Psyche, and took it up in enamelling, especially in the early to mid-1900s. Several of her pendants of Cupid were sent to the Arts and Crafts Exhibition Society in London from 1903. For such classical or other secular subjects (such as mermaids) she often chose to enamel on silver as a quite different colour range-turquoise blues, greens, fiery russets and pearly flesh colours-was thus possible, and readily distinguished from the more primary reds, deep blues and greens worked on copper for religious work. These silver enamels, set as pendants, necklaces or occasionally brooches, are now among the most collectable of Traquair`s small scale work. A 1905 heart pendant of a sleeping Cupid, also worked on silver and set in gold with enamelled tear drop, was purchased by the National Museums of Scotland and is currently on display in the Museum of Scotland (A.1986.122).
