He was rapidly made an Assistant in the Company 'by unanimous consent and approbation and for good reason and especial esteem' in 1678, and in 1694 he became Master.

Lot 395

Edwin Lutyens (British, 1869-1944) The Archer, hand painted enamelled metal shop sign for Cockington village, 57cm high. In the early 1930`s Sir Edwin Lutyens was requested to design an extension to the village of Cockington in Devon, in keeping with the existing picturesque thatched cottages. It was planned to include a country inn, shops and living accommodation. Mainly due to the Second World War, only the village inn was ever built. However, the village shop signs were also made. The signs themselves were made in the old village forge, by the blacksmith, Mr Bill Bradford. Lutyens first grooved out onto a plain sheet of metal the designs and then passed them onto the blacksmith. Using a fretsaw and a drill Bradford painstakingly cut out the designs, before they were sent to be painted.

Lot 590

Raymond James Coxon (British, 1896-1997) Welsh landscape signed (lower left) oils on canvas 62cm x 75cm. Provenance: By descent through the artist`s family. Exhibited: City Art Gallery, Stoke on Trent, Raymond Coxon Retrospective, April - June 1987, no.30. Raymond Coxon was a painter for over 75 years, producing diverse art work which became collectable in artistic circles. His work was bought by figures such as Maynard Keynes, Sir Michael Sadler, Sir Edward Marsh and Henry Lamb, and his artwork now hangs in many museum collections. Coxon studied at Leeds College of Art (1919-21), where he became a close friend of the sculptor Henry Moore. Alongside Moore, Coxon visited France in 1922 and met Malliol and Bonnard. He went on to study at the Royal College of Art (1921-25), under Sir William Rothenstein and taught at Richmond School of Art (1925). In 1927 Coxon and his wife, together with Henry Moore and Leon Underwood formed the short-lived Independent Society. His first one man exhibition took place in 1928 with the London Artists Association at the Cooling Galleries. He went onto have one-man shows at the Leicester Galleries (1936, 1940, 1947 and 1960), was a member of the London Group (1932), the Chiswick Group (1938), and became an official war artist seconded to the navy in the Second World War (1940-45). Perhaps some of his most notable work, alongside his landscapes, were his portraits of his friends including Henry Moore, Ceri Richards, Vivian Pitchforth and John Piper.

Emma Fordyce Macrae (American, 1887-1974) Spring Flowers oils on board 45cm x 37cm. Exhibited: Knickerbocker Artists, 7th Members Show, May 1967. Emma Fordyce MacRae first studied at the Art Students League in 1911, under Frank Vincent DuMond, Kenneth Hayes Miller and later Luis Mora, Ernest Blumenschein and Joan Sloan, all eminent American artists and teachers in their own right. MacRae painted for the majority of her life in her studios in New York City, in Gloucester, Massachusetts and in Europe. In the 1920s and 1930s, MacRae became one of the foremost female American artist`s of her generation, and showed her work in many exhibition and gallery shows, including the American Woman`s Association, National Academy of Design, New York Society of Painters, The MacDowell Club and The Philadelphia Ten. In the 1940s she became chairman of the jury for the National Associate of Women Artists. During her lifetime she won numerous awards for her work including The Kingdon Gould Prize (1928), Philadelphia Prize (1932), Hans Hunrich Prize (1942) and at the Pen and Brush Club on many occasions. A major reassessment of her work happened in the 1980s after her death. The Richard York Gallery in New York exhibited thirty paintings by her in 1983 and she was included in the `American Women Artists, 1930-1930` exhibition at the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington D. C. and in four other museums. In 2008 there was another solo exhibition of her work at the Cape Ann Museum in Gloucester, Massachusetts.
