They ranged from sculpture (Stephen Tomlin's bust of Virginia Woolf; Private Collection), furniture (the Omega Workshops screen in his studio at Charleston), to Japanese art (a Sharaku textile, Private Collection) to Matisse (Still life with Matisse, Royal Collection). More often, he uses designs by himself as backgrounds for flowers and fruit. The present work shows a decorative design pinned to the wall and is highly typical of Grant's decorative designs of the 1950s and 1960s. This still life was probably painted in Grant's and Vanessa Bell's London flat rather than at Charleston.We are grateful to Richard Shone for compiling this catalogue entry.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ARAR Goods subject to Artists Resale Right Additional Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Pack volunteered to carry an important dispatch into Nieuwpoort and had much difficulty in escaping when the French invested it. Later he was engaged at Boxtel and in the winter retreat to Bremen. Following that retreat the 14th squadron was transferred to the 8th light dragoons after being attached to it. When Pack came home he obtained his lieutenancy in the 14th on 12 March 1795. He commanded a small party of dragoons in the Quiberon expedition^ and in this period did duty for some months as a field-officer on Isle Dieu. He received his troop in the 5th dragoon guards on 27 February 1796^ and while serving with them in Ireland in 1798 he led a patrol near Prosperous against a party of rebels^ who lost twenty men and eight horses.¦¦Pack commanded the escort which conducted General Humbert and other French officers to Dublin after their surrender at Ballinamuck.

He marched with Sir John Moore~s army into Spain and in the retreat to Corunna. After returning to England he took part in the Walcheren expedition in 1809^ in which he bravely stormed one of the enemy~s batteries during the siege of Flushing. He became aide-de-camp to the king with the rank of colonel on 25 July 1810. He was then appointed with local rank to a Portuguese brigade under Marshal Beresford and commanded it at Busaco in 1810^ and in front of Almeida in May 1811.

Pack died at Lord Beresford~s house in Upper Wimpole Street^ London^ on 24 July 1823.
