LES BRAVE GENS, LES BRAVES GENS` Signed and dated 1879, oil on canvas 78 x 100cm. * The Battle of Sedan, September 1st-2nd 1870, proved to be a decisive event in the Franco-Prussian War. It resulted in the capture of Napoleon III, thereby effectively delivering victory to the Prussian forces commanded by Helmuth von Moltke. The 130,000-strong French `Army de Chalons` under Marshal Patrice de MacMahon was encircled by the astute Prussian forces and cornered into surrender. ++ Needs a light clean

Unusually for Anderson, the sitter's name is part of the title. Post-War thrift requires careful repairs for the sacks but the shepherd's heavy hands seem to make light of the task. The work is menial but important and economical; the atmosphere is calm but focused and industrious. ++ Good condition
•JOHN STEVEN DEWS (b.1949) `THERMOPYLAE` HOVE TO Signed, oil on canvas 49 x 74cm. Exhibited: Beverley, Yorkshire, James H. Starkey Galleries, December 1976. The artist was born in Beverley and this exhibition was probably his celebrated debut, a near sell out show which also earned the young artist 17 valuable commissions and opened the market for his work in America. ++ Needs a light clean; discoloured varnish
•`GLUCK` (HANNAH GLUCKSTEIN) (1895-1978) SEASCAPE Signed and dated Gluck 1969, oil on canvas board, in a `Gluck frame` 14 x 21.5cm.; 41 x 48.5cm in frame Exhibited: London, The Fine Art Society plc, July 1989 (label on reverse of frame) * An intriguingly autocratic artistic personality, Gluck forsook her family name in order to distance herself from family wealth and patronymic convention. She studied in St John's Wood and associated with Sir Alfred Munnings in Cornwall before resolving to show her work only in solo exhibitions (of which there were five during her lifetime) and she adopted a highly mannered masculine appearance. She was a friend of Constance Spry, who inspired her flower pictures. Gluck's innate feel for design led to her devising the instantly recognizable stepped geometric frames. When hung against a wall of similar colour, these frames allowed the pictures to blend almost invisibly into their surroundings (which was not quite the modest self-effacement that the artist ever sought for herself). ++ Needs only a light clean
•ALGERNON NEWTON, RA (1880-1968) SEPTEMBER AFTERNOON Signed and inscribed with title and artist's address on the overlap, oil on canvas 50 x 60cm. * The unsettling atmosphere of the deserted landscapes in many of Newton's works was borne, at least in part, of two harrowing years spent in the trenches during the Great War. He was invalided home with severe pneumonia and was later reduced to selling his pictures - with some difficulty - on the pavements of London. The generation of fallen men who never returned from War reduced some of England's once busy farms to desolation and financial (as well as physical) collapse. Newton's popularity was on the rise in the 1930s but the poignant losses of comrades and friends from an earlier decade invested much of the artist's work with an allegory for their enduring absence, expressed through landscapes in which one expects to spy a human presence but in which, chillingly, there is none to be seen. The title of this work further suggests the passing of a fecund season and the advent of a time of mournful decay. Exhibited: Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Carnegie Institute (label on stretcher) London, Royal Academy, 1936, no.536 ++ Needs a light clean We are grateful to the artist’s grandson, Nicholas Newton, for expanding the footnote as follows: The unsettling atmosphere of the deserted landscapes in many of Newton's works was borne, at least in part, by his experience during the Great War. He joined up in 1916 but after several months of training he was invalided home with double pneumonia and was later reduced to selling his pictures - with some difficulty - on the pavements of London. The generation of fallen men who never returned from War reduced some of England's once busy farms to desolation and financial (as well as physical) collapse. Newton's popularity was on the rise in the 1930s but the poignant losses of his two nephews, comrades and friends from an earlier decade invested much of the artist's work with an allegory for their enduring absence, expressed through landscapes in which one expects to spy a human presence but in which, chillingly, there is none to be seen. The title of this work further suggests the passing of a fecund season and the advent of a time of mournful decay. Completed in 1936 September Afternoon was painted during an intense period when he was creating compositions motivated by the relationship between the sky and its light reflecting on the tranquil waters of English rivers. A year earlier he completed the commission of Evening on the Avon for the new RMS Queen Mary, a large work which was installed at the after end of the Long Gallery, which connected the first-class main lounge to the first-class smoking room.
•EDWARD SEAGO, RWS (1910-1974) PICCADILLY BY THE RITZ, JUNE 1953 Signed, oil on canvas 49.5 x 65cm. Provenance: Private collection, Somerset * Seago was appointed to be one of the official artists for the Coronation on June 2nd 1953, following a distinguished association with the Royal family, which continued up to his death. This subject was painted during the artist's visit to London for that event. HM The Queen later selected one of Seago's works as the most successful depiction of the Coronation procession. The artist was not just a regular visitor to Sandringham but also made a gift of a picture to Queen Elizabeth upon her birthday and again at Christmas for over 25 years. With a keen eye for light combined with a fluent technique of great panache, he captured skilfully the sense of liveliness in a subject such as this through the use of attenuated figures and mere hints of form which suggest fleeting movement. ++ Slight craquelure within the tree upper centre; 1cm faint graze below vehicle on extreme left; needs a light clean
