HESING: Also known as Xi Cheng. Mandarin who travelled in the Keying, first Chinese junk to ever sail from Hong Kong to New York and further to London. Signed 8vo portrait drawing of Hesing. Signed `Hesing´ in bold black ink at the foot beneath his portrait, also adding the junk name `Keying´ and `L A Hilllbeck´ to the head, all with their equivalent Chinese characters beneath. The drawing bears to the upper corner a red ink stamp with Chinese characters, being the seal of Prince Hui Rui. Few stains not affecting the signatures. Small folding and creasing. The Keying was a three-masted Chinese trading junk that sailed from Hong Kong in December 1846 with a mixed crew of Chinese and British sailors. The vessel had been purchased surreptitiously by a conglomerate of enterprising English businessmen. It was placed under the command of Captain Kellett with the intention of carrying curiosities and merchandise to England and thereafter serving as a kind of floating museum. The Chinese crew members that they were embarking on such an extended journey were not aware of such plans. The Keying arrived in New York City on July 9, 1847, creating a sensation, with seven thousand visitors per day. In late March 1848, the Keying arrived in London to great fanfare, and several different medals were struck to commemorate its appearance, including one that had a bust of Mandarin Hesing. It was visited by the Queen Victoria, whose right to be the first European woman to visit it was reserved, The Duke of Wellington and Charles Dickens. It has been suggested that the Chinese Emperor was aware of the project from the start and secretly kept informed about it, and that the mandarin served as an informer to report back in detail. Good Condition. All autographs are genuine hand signed and come with a Certificate of Authenticity. We combine postage on multiple winning lots and can ship worldwide. UK postage from £4.99, EU from £6.99, Rest of World from £8.99.

FRANCIS NICHOLSON O.W.S. (BRITISH 1753-1844) ULLSWATER Pen and ink and watercolour (Dimensions: 30cm x 41.5cm (12in x  16.25in))(30cm x 41.5cm (12in x  16.25in))Footnote: Note: Dubbed the ‘Father of English watercolour painting’, Francis Nicholson is best known for his landscapes. Nicholson was born in Pickering, North Yorkshire in 1753. He trained in Scarborough for three years before beginning his career back in Pickering, where he produced sporting pictures and portraits of his Yorkshire patrons. The mid-1780s saw Nicholson’s interest shift toward painting scenes of country houses, and this eventually led to his experimentation and exploration of landscapes in watercolour. By 1789, his works were exhibited at the Royal Academy and his landscapes had been included in several publications. Nicholson developed a technique with watercolour paintings which allowed him to create shadows and depth through the application/removal of beeswax. The Society of Artists purchased this method in 1799 and claimed that, through this practice, Nicholson had elevated watercolour paintings from simple, ‘stained drawings’ to possessing all the power of an oil painting. Nicholson moved to London around 1801 and, three years later, became founder-member of the Society of Painters in Watercolours, as well as a prolific contributor to their exhibitions. In 1820, he published The Practice of Drawing and Painting Landscape from Nature in Watercolours. The book was so wildly popular that it sold out and a second edition promptly followed in 1823. Nicholson revolutionised watercolour painting and ultimately paved the way for future landscape artists. JMW Turner was even said to have admired his work, citing Nicholson as ‘my model’. He died in London in March 1844 and is buried in Brompton cemetery.Condition report: Laid down, time fading with some foxingin period gilt frame

In it the barons under Henry of Derby, afterwards Henry IV, had the better of Robert de Vere...Radcot Bridge, too, an important thoroughfare in those days, had its share in the excitement of the Great Rebellion, for it was held by the Royalists as an outpost of Farringdon House..."
