Lighting: A G.E.C. Industrial Flame Proof Tripod Light, 1940s, an example of classic British lighting design, the lights are made up of a substantial three-part polished aluminium enclosure with its original flameproof glass lens and an impressive number of manufacturers details cast into the metal emphasising the heritage of the light. Now fully restored rewired and mounted on highly polished aluminium vintage theodolite stands from Swiss manufacturer Kern, 70cm high by 70cm diameterThis beautifully refined light was made by British manufacturer G.E.C and salvaged from the old de-commissioned Rolls Royce factory in Derby in the UK. Established in London in 1886, the General Electrical Company were to become the largest electrical manufacturing organisation in the British Empire and lived up to their description of Manufacturers of everything electrical, throughout their 100 year history. During the mass industrialization of the 1950s, GEC were often the supplier of choice for lighting the factories, workshops and mills of Britain with their huge range of light fixtures for every application.Rolls Royce built its Nightingale Road site to move production of the Silver Ghost car to Derby from Manchester in 1908. It later became synonymous with the Merlin engine, which powered the Lancaster Bomber, the Spitfire and the Mustang. These lights would have been in use during that war to illuminate the factory floor for the workforce.

* BRENDAN KELLY RP (SCOTTISH b 1970), IN THE STUDIO (A SELF PORTRAIT) oil on board, signed, titled on label verso 18cmx 17cm Framed. Label verso: The Edinburgh Gallery, Light & Colour Exhibition, 1-18 March 1997. Note: Brendan Kelly was born in Edinburgh in 1970 and now lives and works in London. He studied at the Slade School in London for a BA (Hons) in Fine Art. His work is held in a number of national collections in the UK including The National Portrait Gallery where he has two portraits, the UK Parliament and the Bank of England. His portrait of the former Speaker of the House of Commons, John Bercow hangs in the Speaker’s State Rooms at the Palace of Westminster. In 2004 he took part in "Being Present" at Jerwood Space, having just won the De Laszlo Prize for the best portrait by a young artist at the 2004 RP exhibition. Kelly was also commended several times in the BP Portrait Award before winning second prize in 2001 for Nude in a Nightclub. His paintings often begin with a desire to create a particular atmosphere through the use of artificial lighting. Kelly's website shows three fascinating videos which provide an insight into modern day painting techniques. The subjects are David Nish former CEO of Standard Life, General Sir Mike Jackson and "The Herat Room". The latter is an extraordinary short film about the thirteen months it took to complete a commission for the war in Afghanistan. The film reveals why Kelly is already a celebrated artist and why there's little doubt that that his star will continue to rise. brendankellyartist.co.uk/video
