•ANNIE FRENCH (Scottish 1872 - 1965) THE DREAMLAND EXPRESS Signed pen, ink and watercolour, 25.5 x 38cm (10 x 115") Provenance: John McGhie, artist (1867 - 1952), thence by decent Annie French was born in Glasgow, studied at Glasgow School of Art working with Jessie Marion King as a pupil and later teacher. She exhibited at The Brussels Salon in 1903. Best known for her illustrations of fairy tales and poems. The accompanying letter also reveals another side of the artists life. Translation of The Annie French letter; Inner envelope: Eaglesmore, 2 Trinity Rise, Tube Hill, London, SW2 31/2p stamp inscribed for sixteen prints from Mr & Mrs McGhie for two watercolours, many thanks, Annie French March 24 - 1919. Envelope addressed to: Mrs John McGhie, 351 Renfrew Street, Glasgow Letter reads; February 2, 1919 Dear Mrs McGhie Thank you so much for the £6 which came safely. I hope you won`t tire of the little picture. I am not sure which one it is as Mr Gibson had had several one or two of which had gone the way of - not - all pictures some time before. I am so ashamed of the trouble in Glasgow. One has always felt proud of Glasgow but it has always had the black mark upon it in socialism. Just one, but so bad. The socialists just live for themselves and the present. They don`t see that through the generations there`s a rise and fall in degree, that a peers grand children may some of them fall down to the gutter, while an uneducated man`s grandson through his fineness, may have reached the highest position in life. It seems so wrong that unreasoning brainless workman should get equal rights with men who have to direct them in everything they set to do. What could they do but break stones and heads if the employees of labour want a strike. The children are being educated and they would settle the future nicely when they grow up, but in the meantime their fathers will wreck everything I suppose. It is expected that London will be in a bad state by next Thursday. It is in the air, you see groups of fellows talking loudly and laughing in a raised kind of way, not talking about the strikes, perhaps just about ordinary things, but one sees that they are excited when a decent looking business man in the darkness said `wah wah wah!, to me I thought he was Bolshevist or Bolshevian or whatever they are called - but I found he was just talking to his little dog. You see how excited I am myself, but I am so miserable that we can`t have peace and happiness now the war is over. Here is the formal - or rather informal acknowledgement of the money. It is a little cottage to go by the Dreamland Express. When you happen to dream that the Bolshevians are swarming over the town. I am sorry it isn`t a better cottage but it is Sunday night, my letter writing night and I need to hurry. So thanking you again and with my love I am ever sincerely Annie French. I got your letter here when we arrived from Glasgow, by mistake it had been not forwarded to me but I didn`t receive one from Mr Gibson which he told me had been sent about that time. The watercolour of the thatched cottage doorway bears a one penny stamp inscribed; `To acknowledge with a kiss six pounds from Mrs John McGhie for a watercolour, January 28th 1919.
