[Jane Austen]. Portrait Miniature of Mrs. James Digweed, née Mary Susannah Lyford, by George Jackson (active 1810-20s), circa 1811, watercolour and bodycolour on ivory, oval head and shoulders half-profile portrait to left of a young lady wearing a white dress with high-necked lace-trimmed collar, her fair hair worn piled up on her head and in curled bangs, portion of paper tipped to verso with contemporary manuscript inscription 'Mrs. James Digweed born Miss Susanna Lyford', 67 x 53 mm (2.5 x 2 ins), ebonised frame, glazed (Qty: 1)Provenance: From the portrait miniature collection of mathematician and businessman Sir Brian Kellett (1922-1994). Mary Susannah Lyford (1772-1840) married James Digweed in 1803. She was a close friend of Jane Austen, and her father, John Lyford, was a physician who attended on all members of the Austen family whilst they were residing at the rectory in Steventon between 1775 and 1801. Mary Lyford's cousin, Giles-King Lyford, was Surgeon-in-Ordinary at the County Hospital in Winchester and he attended on Jane during her final illness. In fact Jane moved to Winchester in 1817 shortly before her death so that she should be near her doctor. The Digweeds were also close friends and neighbours of the Austen family, living as they did at Steventon Manor, which they rented first from Thomas Knight, and subsequently from his heir, Jane Austen's brother, Edward Austen Knight. Although unsigned, in our opinion this painting is by the same artist as the portrait miniature of Susannah's brother-in-law, Francis William, in this sale; the works match in style and technique, and were almost certainly done around the same time. For a similar example of this little-known artist's work, depicting the sporting artist John Frederick Herring (NPG 4902) and dated 1822, see David Saywell & Jacob Simon, National Portrait Gallery, Complete Illustrated Catalogue , 2004, page 299, and Richard Walker, Regency Portraits , 1985, page 246.
Attributed to Francis Alleyne (1750-1815).

Such clients were ready commissioners of Alleyne's distinctive small format, highly finished works in the French style which was so fashionable at the time. The artist exhibited a few paintings in London: at the Society of Artists of Great Britain, the Free Society of Artists, and at the Royal Academy. His works were often signed and inscribed on the back.

Victoria (Queen of Great Britain, 1819-1901). Portrait of Prince Friedrich Wilhelm of Prussia, after Anton Hähnisch (1817-1897), watercolour, with traces of pencil, depicting Prince Friedrich ( later Wilhelm II, German Emperor) as a baby, seated, wearing a white lace dress with pink sash and shoulder ribbons, a white lace bonnet, and blue shoes, holding a silver rattle in his right hand, and with the outline of a Mr. Punch toy at his side, signed in pencil 'V.' lower right, 21.5 x 16 cm (8.5 x 6.25 ins), mounted, framed and glazed (Qty: 1)Provenance: Given by Queen Victoria to Miss Sarah Hildyard ('Tilla'), governess to the royal children; sold by her descendants at Sotheby's, 25th January, 1968, where purchased by the current owner. Prince Friedrich, later Wilhelm II (1859-1941) - or 'Kaiser Bill' as he was popularly known - was the eldest child of Frederick III, German Emperor and King of Prussia, and his wife Victoria, Princess Royal, eldest child of Queen Victoria. Anton Hähnisch's portrait miniature of Prince Friedrich was commissioned by Queen Victoria, and a second version, painted by the artist expressly for the Queen, is housed in the Royal Collection (RCIN 420524). On 30th December 1859 the Princess Royal wrote to Queen Victoria: "Hähnisch is painting my miniature and Baby's – … Baby's is quite horrid, too dreadful, so affected and disagreeable, not the least like the child; but he paints quite beautifully only he uses too much violet lilac and pink in the face, not the pure, transparent freshness of Sir William Ross". On 11th February 1860 Victoria wrote again to her mother: "Hähnisch is copying Baby's Picture for you, and I hope you will have it soon". The Princess evidently valued the finished work as she wrote of the artist some months later, "he paints very well you know", and the Queen must have approved of the picture to have taken the trouble to attempt her own copy of it. Queen Victoria didn't meet her grandson until September 1860, when she wrote that he was: "a fine fat child, with a beautiful white soft skin. We felt so happy to see him at last."
Alice (Princess, 1843-1878). Study of theatrical costume, 1860, pen, ink, and watercolour, depicting two full length figures in Tudor dress, one a lady in a black and gold gown, matching head-dress, and white ruff, the other a young boy in black doublet and hose, with a blue sash around his waist, doffing his feather cap, signed lower left margin 'Alice 1860', 22 x 18 cm (8.75 x 7 ins), mounted, framed and glazed (Qty: 1)Provenance: Given by Queen Victoria to Miss Sarah Hildyard ('Tilla'), governess to the royal children; sold by her descendants at Sotheby's, 25th January, 1968, where purchased by the current owner. Princess Alice was the third child of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, and was the Grand Duchess of Hesse and Rhine from 1877 to 1878. The first of Queen Victoria's nine children to die, and one of three to be outlived by their mother, she was also the mother of Alexandra Feodorovna, (wife of Nicholas II of Russia), and uncle to Kaiser Wilhelm II.
