Lot 835
George Engleheart (English, 1750-1829) Portrait of a Lady, wearing a white dress trimmed with a bow and a turquoise blue robe, with a white silk ribbon in her hair, circa 1770 watercolour on ivory 4 x 3cm (2 x 1in) Other Notes: Painted circa 1770, this work dates to early in Engleheart's career. During the early years of his professional career, Engleheart paid great attention to character and recorded minute detail reminiscent of the work of John Smart (1741-1811). This was not a feature he was perhaps able to sustain; such were the demands on his time from an ever-growing patronage. Engleheart ranks with Smart, Cosway, and Humphry as one of the most talented miniaturists active in Georgian England. Engleheart was the third surviving son of a German plaster-modeller, Francis Engleheart, born in Kew, London, in 1750, with an innate creative ambition inherited from his father. His artistic verve helped him to carve a successful and extraordinarily prolific career as an accomplished miniaturist. According to his fee-books, he produced some 4,853 portrait miniatures on ivory during his lifetime, many of which depicting notable members of London's high society. He began his training as the pupil of the Irish landscape artist George Barret (c.1730-1784) when he was admitted to the Royal Academy Schools in London in 1769. He shortly moved on to work under the supervision of Sir Joshua Reynolds (1723-1792) whose miniature portrait he meticulously copied. His subsequent miniatures betray glimmers of stylistic and compositional devices absorbed during these early years of imitation. Condition is fine. 115 inventory number to the reverse.
Lot 836
George Engleheart (English, 1750-1829) Portrait miniature of Mrs Cookson, in a lilac dress, with white frilled collar, a white ribbon tied in a bow at corsage, white bandeau in her upswept powdered hair and falling over her shoulders, 1788 watercolour on ivory 4.40cm (2in) Provenance: Sotheby's, 'Silhouettes, Portrait Miniatures, Objects of Vertu, Gold Boxes and European Silver', 7th March 1983, lot 42. English Private Collection. Other Notes: George Engleheart kept meticulous fee books detailing the identity of his sitters and the amounts due to him. Mrs Cookson, the sitter in this miniature, is recorded as having sat for Engleheart in 1788. Although both her forename and maiden names are unknown, it may depict Mrs Ann Helena Cookson (née Weir) (1766-1789), the first wife of the successful and affluent army officer George Cookson of Wellington, Shropshire (1760-1835). Daughter of Dr Thomas Weir of Jamaica, Ann Cookson would have been twenty-one at the time this portrait was painted, having married Cookson two years earlier.
