A George III mahogany clothes press, circa 1770, in the manner of Thomas Chippendale, the dentil cornice above a pair of panelled cupboard doors opening to sliding trays, the lower section with two short and two long drawers, on shaped bracket feet, 184cm high, 134cm wide, 65cm deep Several of the features demonstrated by this press relate closely to those demonstrated by pieces known to have been produced by the workshop of Thomas Chippendale. This includes the red 'wash' applied to the panels to the rear and underside of the press and the laminated feet. The paper lining to the trays and the pinned elements to the front edges of the interiors of the trays (that would have supported fabric that overlapped the fronts of the trays) are also features associated with Chippendale.
A stained hardwood, probably elm, commemorative portrait relief panel of Field Marshal Sir Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington, after Peter Rouw (1770-1852), circa 1820, the Duke portrayed in profile looking to sinister; the stained pine frame carved with laurel in relief, 40 x 32cm overall Arthur Wellesley was born in Dublin to the Earl and Countess of Mornington. Though he was an active politician and even served as Chief Secretary of Ireland and later Prime Minister during his lifetime, he is mainly remembered for his remarkable military achievements. Wellesley fought in Flanders in 1794 and subsequently directed a military campaign in India in 1796, for the success of which he was knighted upon his return to the UK. He was given the title Duke of Wellington in 1814, in the year before his most famous victory: the defeat of Napoleon at Waterloo in 1815. When he returned to England, he was honoured and celebrated as a national hero. The present relief was probably made in the years after this landmark victory. The choice of timber carries a wider significance. At a crossroads near the battlefield at Waterloo stood an elm tree, later nicknamed the 'Waterloo Elm', which had often served as a command post for the Duke. The tree died at the hands of souvenir hunters in the years after the battle, and was subsequently turned into furniture and objects, including a chair by Thomas Chippendale the Younger which was presented to King George IV and still remains in the Royal Collection. John Children, an entrepreneurial librarian at the British Museum, acquired the felled tree to sell its wood for the manufacture of further objects. It is possible that the panel is connected to this thriving souvenir market for commemorative objects in (Wellington's) elm.A similar relief, only carved in oak, is in the collection of the National Army Museum, NAM. 2000-07-119-1.
