Cornelis Jonson van Ceulen (London 1593-1661 Utrecht)Portrait of a lady, half-length, in a pink dress with blue ribbons signed and dated 'C. J. fecit/ 1637' (lower left)oil on canvas76.5 x 64cm (30 1/8 x 25 3/16in).Footnotes:ProvenanceThe Collection of Sir Thomas Aston, 1922LiteratureA. J. Finberg, 'A Chronological List of Portraits by Cornelius Johnson, or Jonson', in The Walpole Society, 1921-1922, vol. 10, cat. no. 96, ill. pl. LXXBased in his studio in Blackfriars, Johnson painted the gentry, aristocrats, lawyers and merchants, including members of London's Netherlandish community, from whence his parents originated. The present portrait is typical in the way in which he meticulously recorded their fine dress and lace collars. In 1632 he was appointed 'picture-drawer' to Charles I, producing a few small-scale royal portraits, although the main royal commissions went to Sir Anthony van Dyck. While his reputation has been largely overshadowed by his more famous rival, Johnson's reputation was to some degree restored by the London National Portrait Gallery's 2015 celebration of his work, Cornelius Johnson:Charles I's Forgotten Painter. Johnson was the first British-born artist consistently to sign and date his paintings, although his signatures varied over the years. In late 1643, following the outbreak of civil war in Britain, and the collapse of court patronage, Johnson and his family moved back to the Netherlands.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Louzier-Gentaz, 'The works of Firmin Massot (1766-1849) in British Collections', in The British Art Journal, Autumn 2006, vol. VII, pp. 94-95, ill. fig. 7Firmin Massot was one of the key figures of the Geneva School and a leading society portrait painter of his time. He was heavily influenced by the 'contemporary anglophilia' (Louzier-Gentaz, op.cit., p.92) that had developed in Geneva in the early 18th century, mainly due to political upheavals and religious sympathies, as well as scientific and commercial exchanges. Geneva was a necessary stop for many British grand tourists on their way to Italy, when travel allowed it.In the 1790s Massot was linked to two of his fellow students, Wolfgang Adam Topffer (1767-1847) and Jacques-Laurent Agasse (1767-1849). Following Agasse's visit to London in 1792, the three young artists began collaborating on large scale portraits with landscapes and animals together, a practice that Massot and Topffer continued after Agasse moved to England in 1800. Louzier-Gentaz has suggested that it is very probable that Topffer painted the landscape in the present work.The sitter, Elizabeth was the daughter of Theodore Henry Broadhead of Glynde, Surrey. She married Sir George Henry Dashwood, 5th Bt. of West Wycombe, in 1823. She died without issue and lived as a life tenant at West Wycombe. The portrait passed to her brother, Theodore Henry Lavington Broadhead, created a Baronet in 1831, who subsequently resumed the surname Brinckmann.On the present work Louzier- Gentaz remarks 'quite apart from the composition of the work, the date and signature in the lower right-hand corner distinguish this portrait from the others and render it historically important: Massot did not usually sign, except in rare cases, and especially when the work was painted for a foreign patron' (op. cit, p.94).For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
