MINIATURIST "H. M .S" (ENGLISH, EARLY 18TH CENTURY),A HISTORICALLY IMPORTANT MINIATURE - THE COMPOSER GEORGE FREDERICK HANDELwatercolour on vellum laid on card, signed with initials "H.M.S" and dated 1742 to centre right, titled "Handel" lower edge9.5cm x 7.5cm (oval) Framed and under glassLabel verso: Autograph gifting the piece to "Nancy Kelly, Cork, Nov 3rd., 1935", from the eminent composer Percival Benedict Kahn (1880 - 1966). He was acclaimed as the composer of a 1913 version of "Ave Maria". Above the dedication on the label verso, there is a manuscript annotation of the first three bars, in the composer's hand.Note: It is possible this was painted "from life", as it does not appear to be a copy, or version, of any of the known portraits of Handel done before the date of this one, 1742. This would make it very rare. There is evidence of old water damage to Handel's face on the right side, but in otherwise sound condition.
