Paine (Thomas).- French Revolution.- Trial of Louis XVI.- Paine (Thomas) Opinion de Thomas Payne [sic.] Député du Départment de la Somme, concernant le Jugement de Louis XVI, Précédée de sa lettre d'envoi au Président de la Convention, Paris, L'Imprimerie Nationale, 1792 [and] Paine (Thomas) Opinion de Thomas Payne [sic.] sur l'Affaire de Louis Capet, Addressé au Président de la Convention Nationale, [Paris], [L'Imprimerie Nationale], [1793] bound with a large quantity of other 'Opinions', 'Appels' and 'Pieces Justicatives' relating to the trial and sentencing of Louis XVI, bound together in 6 vol., some spotting and light browning, 19th century half calf, spines gilt (dulled) and with red and black morocco labels, rubbed, 8vo⁂ In 1792 in gratitude for his fervent support of the French Revolution the revolutionary government of France granted Paine honorary citizenship and elected him as a deputy to the Convention Nationale. Before, during and following the trial of Louis XVI the opinions of Paine and his fellow deputies were canvassed, Initially, the question was whether the monarch should be tried; and later how; and then finally upon the verdict of guilty for high treason what punishment should be meted out. Paine believed that Louis XVI should receive a fair and unbiased trial and if found guilty his sentence should be decided upon by the citizens of France. In the second pamphlet mentioned, which follows the guilty verdict, Paine argues against the king's execution, favouring exile instead. He believed that capital punishment was linked to the corruption of the monarchy. Our volumes also contain contributions by Robespierre, Marat, Carnot, and Saint-Just, amongst many others. In all an excellent snapshot of the sentiments and events surrounding the trial and execution of Louis XVI, or 'Citoyen Louis Capet', as he was referred to during this period.

Walter Frederick Osborne RHA ROI (1859-1903)A Bit of Sutton Courtney - A Village by the ThamesOil on panel, 41 x 32cm (16 x 12½'')Signed; inscribed versoProvenance: The Rowley Gallery stamp verso, 87 Campden Street, Kensington Church Street, London, whence purchased in the 1920s; hence by descent.Exhibited: The Dublin Art Club, 1887, Catalogue No.129.Literature: Sheehy, Jeanne, 'Walter Osborne', Gifford & Craven, Ballycotton 1974, p.121, no.174; Bodkin, Thomas, 'Four Irish Landscape Painters', Dublin and London, 1920, Appendix XI, p.133; le Harival, Adrian and Michael Wynne, 'Acquisitions, 1984-86, National Gallery of Ireland', Dublin, 1986, p.68, illustrated fig.60b.(note: Osborne titled this picture with the spelling ‘Sutton Courtney’ and this spelling will be used when referring to the painting. The correct spelling of the village is Sutton Courtenay.)Journeying along the river Thames, Cork-born artist Robert Gibbings wrote in 1940 that: “Sutton’s Pool by Sutton Courtenay is a fairy world of falling waters. By moonlight… it is a setting for the rarer moments in life”. Gibbings did not linger in the village, “leaving the last golden hours of evening to the boys fishing on the weirs” (1).In 1887, Walter Osborne had stayed at Sutton Courtenay (then in Berkshire but today in Oxfordshire) and painted the present picture A Bit of Sutton Courtney, A Village by the Thames. It shows a boy leaning against a wooden railing, fishing, while across the river a woman stands and tall red buildings are lit by sunlight. Walter Osborne observes the scene meticulously and the picture has a wealth of detail and a strong human presence. In spite of its rural setting, the painting is aflame with warm, glowing reds and browns, almost unprecedented in Irish art at this time.Having earlier studied in Dublin and Antwerp and painted in Brittany, Osborne spent much of the second half of the 1880s working in English villages and towns, painting a series of village, farming and coastal scenes. These are some of the finest pictures of his career. He painted much in Berkshire and Oxfordshire, for instance at Newbury, Uffington, Didcot and on the Downs. Sometimes he had the company of fellow artist Blandford Fletcher and his friend from Dublin, writer Stephen Gwynn, was in nearby Oxford, 1882-1886, and was teaching at Bradfield School in 1888 (2).Sutton Courtenay was a tranquil and picturesque village just south of Abingdon and north of Didcot, situated in a curve in the river Thames. It had been settled by the Saxons, who built a causeway on the river. In the twelfth century, the village took the name of the Courtenay family, who lived in the manor (3). All Saints’ Church and other fine buildings date from later centuries (4). In the mid-19th century, many villagers were employed in the local paper mill and in domestic service. The most striking features of the village were the causeway and weirs that separated the millstream from the Sutton Pools and Osborne was attracted to the streams where boys fished.From his early days in Ireland, he had depicted several pictures of lads fishing in a stream or canal (5). In A Bit of Sutton Courtney, the figure is placed close to the viewer, leaning against a wooden fence. He holds a fishing rod and looks down at the river. He wears a kind of deer-stalker hat, white shirt and brown waistcoat. Sunshine falls upon his cheek and sleeve. His figure is viewed from behind and his legs are cut by the lower edge of the picture, suggesting a photographic influence. Across the river, a woman with hat and violet apron stands upon the river bank looking at the barge. Even though the figures are separated by the river, visual and, perhaps, emotional affinities between them are evoked - both looking down and both holding a rod or a stick.There is a wealth of detail in the scene: the rough grain of the sturdy wooden fence, with an upright post just visible behind the boy's legs; the reflections and ripples in the river and the little fishing float; the tall buildings with steep roofs, including the uneven structure of the barn and an old cart with large wheels. Although the sky in the background is overcast, here Osborne was inspired by the rich tones of English buildings that glowed warmly in the sunshine: reds and russets of brick walls, brown of timber and maroons of roof tiles, as well as ochre clay and verdant foliage. A Bit of Sutton Courtney is enlivened further by little points of colour; the mauve of the woman’s apron, reds, greens, blues, whites and yellows in the barge and reflected in the water; the stripes of the upright post; red in the boy’s cheek and pocket; the mauve patch on the railing; and the blue of the float.Equally, Osborne’s brushwork is lively and varied: crisp and controlled in some areas, fluid and expressive in others. The ‘square brush style’ is employed, for example, in parts of the boy’s clothing, the woman’s apron and the walls of the barn. Meanwhile, the ripples are painted in a softer, more lyrical way and parts of the foliage and undergrowth are more ‘blurred’, for instance, in the rough grass draped over the river bank.If we look closely at the painting, we notice an interesting detail: the impastoed brushstrokes that depict the fence are visible beneath the figure of the boy. This suggests that Osborne may have added him to the picture at a later date than the landscape. This was not an unusual practice amongst painters, such as Canaletto or Caspar Friedrich (6), but Osborne may have decided to include the figure to give a greater sense of focus, psychological interest and human warmth to his composition. The motif of the figure, viewed from behind, looking into the picture, the Rückenfigur of German Romanticism, can be seen in the paintings of Caspar Friedrich and in Realist pictures by François Bonvin, Henri de Braekeleer and Joseph M. Kavanagh. As in several Osborne pictures of the period, for instance Counting the Flock, 1887 (sold at Adam’s, 30th May 2018) (7), the figure viewed from behind is an individual, but also an archetype, engaging the viewer and adding a sense of mystery.A Bit of Sutton Courtney is painted on a wood panel and is signed lower right with the squared capital letters which the artist employed in this period. Osborne exhibited the picture at the Dublin Art Club (of which he was a co-founder), in 1887, modestly priced at twelve guineas. He made a tiny pencil drawing after the painting, the figure being outlined in ink (in sketchbook in NGI, catalogue number 19, 202, p.14).Sutton Courtenay continued to attract Irish and other artists and writers. John Lavery painted Asquith in an 1891 Elizabeth boat on the river in 1917 (Dublin City Gallery, The Hugh Lane). George Orwell fished there as a boy. Francis S. Walker illustrated a book on the Thames in 1891 (8) and, as noted above, Robert Gibbings passed through Sutton Courtenay and wrote lyrically about it.I am very grateful to Niamh MacNally, Anne Hodge and Andrew Moore, National Gallery of Ireland; John Hutchinson; and Maria O’Mahony for assistance in my research.Julian Campbell, January 20191) Robert Gibbings, Sweet Thames Run Softly, London 1940, p.106.2) Jeanne Sheehy, Walter Osborne, NGI, 1983, p.77; and J.

Vicente López Portaña (Valencia, 1772-Madrid, 1850). "Retrato de Fernando VII con uniforme de Capitán General", óleo sobre lienzo, 102x75 cm. Procedencia: Colección del Marqués de Amparo, Barcelona.   Vicente López, a lo largo de su carrera como pintor de Cámara del Rey, realizó varias versiones autógrafas de este retrato oficial de más de medio cuerpo del monarca Fernando VII. El retratado se presenta vestido con uniforme de capitán general ostentando las grandes cruces y bandas de Carlos III y laureada de San Fernando, además de la cruz de Isabel la Católica y la insignia del Toisón. Apoyando la mano derecha en el bastón y sujetando en la izquierda los guantes, además del bicornio del uniforme, bajo ese brazo. Detrás del monarca, el tronco de un árbol y fondo de celaje. Es muy probable que el primer modelo de este retrato fuera iniciado por el pintor en Valencia, al paso del rey por esta capital a su vuelta del exilio, algo que el pintor menciona en una carta al Duque de San Carlos, escrita antes de su partida hacia la Corte en agosto de 1814: "el retrato de S.M. esta concluido y quedo trabajando en el del señor Infante D. Carlos (...) el de V.E. esta igualmente concluido y todos tres le he hecho colocar con unos magníficos marcos de oro, del mejor gusto, para mas dignamente poderlos presentar a S.M. a S.A. y a S.E. como una pequeña dabida de mi agradecimiento".  Así mismo, este debió ser el modelo de retrato del rey copiado en yeso por el escultor de Cámara José Ginés, del cual pretendía hacer un busto en mármol. El retrato fue grabado por Manuel Albuerne a partir del dibujo de Antonio Guerrero, con su formato reducido a busto y como pareja de la efigie Carlos María Isidro, hermano del monarca, copiando a su vez el retrato realizado por Vicente López al mismo tiempo que el retrato del Rey en Valencia, y del que ha de considerarse pareja.   Bibliografía de referencia: Diez, J.L., "Vicente López (1772-1850).
