A JAMES II TANKARD with domed lid and foot, later chased with a family seated around their hearth, a sportsman at the open door, the lid with chinoiserie thumbpiece and armorial finial, 30cm h, by Timothy Ley, London 1686, 57ozs Provenance: The arms are those of Thomas Brocklehurst of Macclesfield, banker and Martha Mary, his wife, only surviving child of Thomas Unett of Market Drayton, Shropshire. They were married on 12 August 1823 and the present tankard was presumably embellished and given its `antiquarian` dress at that time. Thomas was descended from a long line of highly successful merchants and bankers in Macclesfield, Cheshire and the Dent-Brocklehurst family of Sudeley Castle, Gloucestershire are descended from his elder brother. The terminal of the handle is engraved GAP HOUSE and the panels around the foot record the names of its earlier owners from OLIVER AND JOANNA BROCKLEHURST 1549, 2ND EDW IV to THOMAS & MARTHA BROCKLEHURST 1823 3RD GEORGE IV. ++In well preserved condition from the early 19th c date when the tankard was given its `antiquarian` dress in presumably about 1823.

AFTER HENRI GASCAR PORTRAIT OF LOUISE DE KÉROUALLE, DUCHESS OF PORTSMOUTH (1649-1734) with a King Charles Spaniel, half length before drapery, 92 x 73cm, in a carved giltwood frame Despite the artist having painted the sitter fair haired, the present picture is unmistakably a portrait of Charles II`s fRENCH mistress.

The intimate setting, rich drapery and her opulent dress would indicate that the Duchess is depicted in her private apartments at Whitehall and is wearing the type of "loose gown" as her dress was described by John Evelyn.
