Juan Manuel Blanes - A Gaucho on Horseback in a Uruguayan Prairie Landscape, 19th century oil on canvas, signed with initials recto, label verso, 112cm x 128cm, within a Watts style gilt composition frame. Provenance: Baldomero Hyacinth de Bertodano, 7th Marquis del Moral (1844-1921), Solicitor of the Supreme Court of Judicature and resident of Cowbridge House, Wiltshire; The sale of the Contents of Cowbridge House, Messrs Matthews, Matthews & Goodman in conjunction with Messrs Dore, Fielder & Co, October 1922, lot no.137 described thus, 'A fine Oil Painting, The Gaucho on the Pampas in Argentine about 52 by 46 ins'; where purchased by Charles Edmund de Bertodano M.Inst.C.E. (1853-1926); thence by family descent. Note: Juan Manuel Blanes was one of the most important artists in the history of Uruguay, helping to shape the visual identity of the country, which was, at the time, locked in an independence battle with Spain. He was also instrumental in establishing wider Latin and South American aesthetic archetypes. The gaucho was a recurring theme in his work. Intrigued by the powerful proud landless cattle ranchers that roamed the plains of Uruguay, Argentina and Brazil, Blanes stamped for posterity his vision of these characters who lived lives of seemingly utter freedom. Blanes himself said of the gaucho, 'A man among the thousands of hapless men who live in our ravaged countryside; a decent, vigorous, and intelligent man reduced by the contempt in which he is held; a man garbed in a chiripá, a rough shirt, a flimsy pair of short trousers, a vincha (headband), a bandanna handy at the neck, carrying the adornments of his trade, the bolas and belt…' Blanes' 'equestrian gauchos' were painted during 1875 to 1878. Light played a crucial element in these works; in this painting the luminous glow from the sky beyond shares the stage with the gaucho, whose pointing gesture amplifies the rising or setting sun. With thanks to Arch. Gabriel Peluffo Linari for his help with the cataloguing of this lot.Buyer’s Premium 29.4% (including VAT @ 20%) of the hammer price.

Lord Rayleigh, Beryllium and Helium, offprint from the Proceedings of the Royal Society, A, Vol. 142, 1933, Beryllium and Helium. I. - The Helium Contained in Beryls of Varied Geological Age, signed in pen to the front cover P.S.I. Tomkeieff, with the author's compliments John William Strutt, 3rd Baron Rayleigh (1842-1919), a mathematician and physicist, won the 1904 Nobel Prize in physics for his work on gases and the subsequent discovery of Argon. Not just confined to research on gases, Lord Rayleigh also contributed to our understanding of how light is affected by particles that are smaller than the light’s wavelength. This phenomenon, known as Rayleigh scattering, explains why the daytime sky is blue. Additionally, he contributed to the study of fluid dynamics, aerodynamics and quantum theory. Even today Lord Rayleigh’s 1877 text, The Theory of Sound, is used by sound engineers. Lord Rayleigh conducted the entirety of his academic career at the University of Cambridge, where he was chancellor in his twilight years from 1908-1919. Professor Sergei Ivanovich Tomkeieff FRSE FGS (1892–1968) was a 20th-century Lithuanian geologist and petrologist. He was born on 20 October 1892 in Vilna the capital of Lithuania. He came to Britain either during or just after the First World War and began lecturing in Geology at Anderson College in Newcastle-upon-Tyne in 1920. In 1948 he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh. His proposers were Arthur Holmes, James Ernest Richey, Sir Edward Battersby Bailey, Heslop Harrison, George Walter Tyrrell, John Weir, and H. B. Donald. In 1957 he became Professor of Petrology at the Anderson College. He was Author of many books including; The Tholeite Dyke at Cowgate (1953); Coals, Bitumens and other Related Fossil Carbonaceous Substances (1954); Isle of Arran (1961); The Economic Geology of Quarried Materials (1969) Dictionary of Petrology (1983) (posthumous). He was awarded the Geological Society's Lyell Medal in 1966. He died on 27 October 1968 in Newcastle aged 76
