Lot 216
A rare William III ebonised thirty-hour longcase clock. William Kenyon, Liverpool circa 1690-95. The four finned pillar countwheel bell striking two-handed movement with anchor escapement and 9.75inch square brass dial with circular calendar aperture to the symmetrical tulip decorated foliate engraved centre incorporating unusual ‘basket of bread’ motif to upper margin and with ring turned centre aperture, within applied silvered Roman numeral chapter ring with stylised sword hilt half hour markers, Arabic five minutes to outer track and signed W’m Kenyon, Leverpoole to lower edge, with pierced steel hands and applied winged cherub head and scroll cast spandrels to angles, the case with ogee cornice and swollen frieze above three-quarter pilasters to the glazed hood door above convex throat and slender trunk with rectangular door, on conforming plinth base with moulded skirt, 203cm (80ins) high. William Kenyon is recorded in Loomes, Brian LANCASHIRE CLOCKS and CLOCKMAKERS as believed born in 1667, Loomes further notes that various children, fathered by a William Kenyon, were born between the dates 1708-20. A James Kenyon is also recorded as working at Redcross Street in 1715 then Newmarket in 1725 and was declared insolvent in 1743. The delicate light symmetrical arrangement of engraved foliate scrolls with large tulip blooms issuing from a central element towards the lower margin of the dial centre of the current lot is very similar in style and feel to the engraving to the dial centre of a lantern clock by John Barton of Aughton/Ormskirk illustrated in Loomes, Brian LANTERN CLOCKS & Their Makers page 303. As Loomes suggests that the lantern clock by Barton dates to the 1690’s it would, on stylistic grounds, be reasonable to suggest that the current lot would date to the same decade. This date for the clock is perhaps further supported by the fact that Kenyon would have been of active working age at the start of the decade. As the cataloguer does not know of any other Liverpool-made clocks dating to before 1700 it would perhaps be reasonable to suggest that the current lot is possibly the earliest surviving clock to have been made in the city.

*Francis Bruguiere (1880-1945), CUT PAPER ABSTRACTION 1931, gelatin silver print, credit and date in pencil verso 21 x 2.6cm. Provenance: Weston Gallery Carmel, USA. Francis Bruguiere was born in San Francisco in 1879 (some say 1880). In 1905, he became friends with Frank Eugene and Alfred Stieglitz and became a nominal Photo-Secessionist. A year later, he opened a portrait studio in San Francisco where he was born, but returned to New York in 1919 to work for Vanity Fair, Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar and the New York Theatre Guild. In 1923, Bruguiere began to photograph shaped or cut-paper designs, dramatically lit to create patterns and movement in abstract forms of light and shadow. He came to London from the USA already known as a photographer and with one completed film, and in London he produced the first British abstract film, ‘Light Rhythm’. It is a strictly abstract work which added new dimensions to these shapes: moving light-sources, a scheme of superimpositions, and the elements of time and music. Influenced by Synchromist paintings, he continued to work with cut-paper abstractions until 1937.
