§ JOHN DUNCAN FERGUSSON R.B.A. (SCOTTISH 1874-1961) STABILITY Signed, inscribed and dated 1916 on the reverse, oil on boardDimensions:33cm x 25.5cm (13in x 10in)Provenance:Provenance: Sotheby's Gleneagles, Scottish and Sporting Pictures and Sculpture, 2 September 1998, lot 1491Exhibited: Connell Gallery, London, Painting and Sculpture by J. D. Fergusson, May 1918, no.21Note: Stability comes from a series of female heads that Fergusson painted in 1916, which includes works as diverse as Joan (Dundee Museums & Galleries, acc.no.25-1956) and Simplicity (Private Collection). From the beginning of his career, Fergusson had been mesmerised by female beauty, most strikingly realised in images of his partner Jean Maconochie in Edinburgh and thereafter of the American artist Anne Estelle Rice in pre-war Paris. After meeting his future wife, the dance pioneer Margaret Morris, in the French capital in 1913, she and her pupils provided a lifelong source of subject matter on the theme of the female form, particularly in motion.On the outbreak of World War One, Fergusson moved from the Cap d’Antibes to London, where Morris had established a dance school, theatre and social club on the King’s Road in Chelsea. A wide range of creative types were members of the latter, including the artist Percy Wyndham Lewis, the poet and writer Edith Sitwell and the musician Constant Lambert; when Charles Rennie Mackintosh and his wife Margaret Macdonald Mackintosh moved nearby, they were made Honorary Members. Fergusson thus settled into London’s avant-garde set with ease.Little work by Fergusson survives from the war years, but Stability reveals the impact living in Paris between 1907 and 1913 had on his practice. Whilst there, his work had undergone a dramatic change, from Edwardian sophistication to a cutting-edge technique, palette and aesthetic. He absorbed the contemporary progress made by artists including Henri Matisse and the Fauves, whose new work he saw at first-hand, and turned it into something uniquely his own. Indeed, Fergusson’s contribution to the modern movement was recognised in his election as a sociétaire of the progressive Salon d’Automne in 1909.The strict profile composition of Stability, the deliberate brushwork used to convey form and shadow, whilst adding rhythm throughout the surface, as well as the sculptural treatment of the sitter’s hair, brought Paris to London. It was one of thirty-two paintings and four sculptures shown in Fergusson’s solo exhibition at The Connell Gallery in the English capital in May 1918. Fergusson’s co-founder of the innovative Rhythm journal, John Middleton Murry, wrote its introduction. Two months later Fergusson was granted permission by the Admiralty ’to go to Portsmouth to gather impressions for painting a picture’.[1] The completion of the resultant paintings co-incided with the end of the conflict. Fergusson was to live in London for another eleven years before returning to Paris until the outbreak of World War Two. [1] Letter from Commodore Sir Douglas Brownrigg to J. D. Fergusson of 9 July 1918, Imperial War Museum Archive, file ref.216/6, no.27, quoted in Alice Strang et al, J. D. Fergusson, Edinburgh 2013, p.21.

Andrei Yakovlevich‏ Beloborodoff, Russian 1886-1965 - A Design for an Open-Air theatre at Ivy House, Golders Green, Home Of Anna Pavlova; watercolour on card, heightened with bodycolour and pen & sepia ink, signed lower right 'A Beloborodoff', signed and inscribed on the reverse '...[?] Beloborodoff /...z[?]iante per il Balletto di Anna Pavlova,gallo... / N. 16', 19 x 23.5 cm Note: Beloborodov began his career as an architect and designer at the very end of Russia's "Silver Age". He studied at the Academy of Arts in St Petersburg. Early on in his studies he developed a particular affinity for Italian architecture, in particular the Italian expatriate Quarenghi, whose buildings could be seen all around the old capital. He gave a speech in 1912 where he spoke of protecting the architect's Zavadovskii Palace, he began work on a project to issue a book with architectural plans and sketches of the Palace. Although global circumstances prevented this from coming to fruition, it established Beloborodov's reputation among St Petersburg high society. He received commissions from clients such as the Count & Countess Bobrinski, the Obolenskiis and Prince Felix Iusopov. His career in Russia reached its zenith with a commission from Tsar Nicholas II to design the public halls at the Cabinet of His Royal Highness at Anichkov Palace in 1913-14. During this period, he also came to know the leading figures of the arts in Russia, including Benois, Stravinsky, Nijinski and Anna Pavlova. His time in Russia was cut short by the Great War and subsequent revolution, and he moved to London in 1920. Here he designed sets for the Royal Albert Hall, including for his former client and friend Prince Iusopov's 'Blue Ball', held in support of refugees from Soviet Russia. It was while he was in London that this design for Anna Pavlova's ballet was executed (1). Pavlova was iving in Ivy House, in Golder's Green, where she kept a small ornamental pond for her pet swans, with which she became associated in the popular conception: "I stayed on in England for several months (executing a project for an open-air theatre for the great ballerina in "Swan" park...)" (2) The so-called 'Swan Park' at Ivy House was already well-known as the setting for many press photographs of Pavlova. Her performance of The Dying Swan, her posing as a Swan for The Sketch in a window of Selfridges and numerous other deliberate associations had solidified her image as this elegant creature in the mind of the public (3). Ivy House itself was built in the 18th century and is said to have been home to J.M.W. Turner at one point prior to Pavlova's purchase of it in 1913 (4). Beloborov went on to have a glittering career in Italy after his short stay in England. This was a place where he could fully indulge the innate Italophilia which he had already admitted to in 1911-1912: "The world of painting was always linked for me to my dream of Italy..." and he developed an "...'Italian backbone' which fuses all of my art" (5). In 1924 he held his first solo exhibition at the Galerie Charpentier in Paris and would continue to exhibit at other galleries across Europe. In Italy he became a close friend of the artist Giorgio de Chirico, and his architectural designs and interiors were critically acclaimed by collectors and the cognoscenti in that country. He is best remembered for his later fantastical views of Rome and other grand Italian cities: these are generally devoid of people and often sparkling in an otherworldly glow (de Chirico rightly perceptively saw it as a 'Platonic' light (6)) which have a surreal element to them and show off his fantastic architectural draughtsmanship. Later in life he also excelled in designing costumes and sets for opera and cinema in Italy.

After leaving school he enlisted in the 1st Battalion Devonshire Regiment and saw service in the Far East between 1944 and 1947, rising to the rank of captain.He was extremely proud of his association with the now-disbanded regiment and greatly mourned its passing, going so far as to name his previous home in Farnham Devonshire House in its honour.Sir Ray made the Surrey town his home in the 1960s and made such an impact in the following 50 years that he was known by locals as Mr Farnham. If a charity or organisation needed help, Sir Ray was there. He eventually stepped down as Chairman of Tindle Newspapers when he was 90, remaining as president, with son Owen, who runs the Oxon Hoath Retreat and Conference Centre in Kent, taking over as Chairman.After returning to the UK after the War,Sir Ray acquired his first newspaper title, the Tooting & Balham Gazette, with his £300 demob payment.

He was also a director for 18 years on the main board of The Guardian & Manchester Evening News, and Chairman for ten years of the Belfast News Letter, the UKs oldest provincial daily.

SILVER COLLECTION OF SIR RAY TINDLE CBE DL 1926-2022 The following obituary (edited) was published by Tindle Newspapers: Sir Ray Tindle was a man who had a life-long commitment to, and passion for, the newspaper industry. He was a newspaper man through and through. After leaving school he enlisted in the 1st Battalion Devonshire Regiment and saw service in the Far East between 1944 and 1947, rising to the rank of captain. He was extremely proud of his association with the now-disbanded regiment and greatly mourned its passing, going so far as to name his previous home in Farnham Devonshire House in its honour. Sir Ray made the Surrey town his home in the 1960s and made such an impact in the following 50 years that he was known by locals as Mr Farnham. If a charity or organisation needed help, Sir Ray was there. He eventually stepped down as Chairman of Tindle Newspapers when he was 90, remaining as president, with son Owen, who runs the Oxon Hoath Retreat and Conference Centre in Kent, taking over as Chairman. After returning to the UK after the War,Sir Ray acquired his first newspaper title, the Tooting & Balham Gazette, with his £300 demob payment.
