Circle of Paulus Moreelse (Dutch 1571-1638)/Portrait of a Lady/half-length, wearing a black dress with pink ribbons and a fine lace collar/crested upper right/oil on panel, 63.5cm x 45.75cm /in a fine 17th Century carved and gilded frame with cherubs and putti in scrolling leafage/Note: The armorial at the top right of this portrait is painted within a diamond-shaped 'lozenge' indicating the arms of a lady, and the smaller central escutcheon 'in pretence' shows that she is an heiress and a widow. Although the identity of the sitter cannot at present be confirmed, the armorial gives some clues as to her family and a likely attribution given below. The principal coat, with the arms of her husband, is quartered. The first and fourth quarters with five red chevrons on a gold ground are recorded for the family of Abrincis, Avranches or Averinges of Folkestone in Kent. [Rietstap's Armorial Général informs further that at the time of the Conquest the bearer of these arms also held a feudal barony as 'Comte de Chester'; Hugh d'Avranches was one of the great magnates of Norman England.]The second and third quarters Argent two bars embattled gules on the principal coat are of more interest. These were borne originally by the Haestrecht family, from a Lordship of that name near Utrecht. This gives a direct link with the painter Paulus Moreelse (1571-1638) who worked most of his life in Utrecht, being particularly noted for his portraits during the 1620s. Roger, son of Jacob van Haestrecht, fled to England in the 1560s to escape religious persecution, calling himself first Roger Jacobs and then Roger James, becoming a successful and wealthy London brewer. His third son, by his wife Sarah Morskyn of Liège, was William James (1570-1627) who in 1598 married Jane Kule (1582-1659) daughter and sole heir of Hendrick Kuel of Bremen (becoming after 1562 Henry Kule, brewer of London) and his wife Johanna Demaistres of a wealthy Antwerp family. About 1607 William James acquired the manor of Ightham Court in Kent and, leaving several children, William died there in April 1627 (leaving 'to ye poor People of Ightham 12 penny loaves every Sunday for ever' in recognition of his blessings). His wife Jane remained a widow for thirty-two years. The Kule arms do not appear recorded (and the Anglo/Flemish family name is spelled a number of ways) but this may well be her portrait. Both families and their numerous relatives by marriage retained strong Dutch links and were associated with the Dutch Reformed Church, Austin Friars, who hold extensive records. The Dutch James family, later becoming Grevis-James, remained at Ightham Court through eight generations until 1920 (Our thanks to Angela Howard for her help with researching this lot/Provenance: Private collection, Gloucestershire/see illustration CONDITION REPORT: Panel has shrunk down left side, and there are signs of restoration and filling of gap and this shows on the front.

Lot 387
1956 Land Rover Series One 86in Registration Number: MHJ 755 Chassis Number: 170603087 Engine Number: 1706**** First registered in Southend-on-Sea in April 1956, this short wheelbase Series One appears to have remained local to the area its entire life. Badly damaged in a fire some years ago and then left to stand outside it is in need of a complete, if brave, restoration, or perhaps used as a donor vehicle for parts. Frustratingly perhaps, it would appear that the Land Rover was in very original condition prior to the damage and, as such, seems to be largely 'numbers correct' and unmolested. Certainly the engine and running gear are correct for the period and the bodywork retains what is left of what might be the original paintwork, the remains of the original ‘pork pie' lights at the rear and signs that it had period correct Bluemels number plates. The vehicle identification plate and stamped chassis number on the rear spring hanger match correctly and the engine is of the correct year and is likely original to the vehicle. An invoice from John Oxborrow, Automobile Engineer of Frinton, dated January 1997, for work undertaken to the brakes and an MoT test, suggest it was in roadworthy condition at this time. Further paperwork included with the vehicle includes an older-style V5 registration document and correspondence with specialist parts supplier, John Craddock, in 1990. Non-running and not mechanically assessed, prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves that the condition of the vehicle, its history and paperwork meet their expectations prior to bidding.BUYER'S PREMIUM WILL BE CHARGED AT 15% PLUS VAT ON THIS LOT.
