ReidLiterature: Sir Joshua Reynolds, David Mannings, Yale University Press, 2000 p 222 no.744cThis portrait is a reduced copy on panel by an unknown hand after the 1775 Portrait of the sitter by Reynolds (Trustees of the Goodwood Collection). There are a number of other copies known after the same portrait. These include one by Henry Raeburn at Fyvie Castle; another portrait attributed to a ' follower' of Raeburn at Blair Castle, Blair Atholl, Perthshire; two versions on enamel by Henry Bone RA also exist (one currently at Mount Stuart). There is also an original duplicate of the 1775 portrait in the collection of Lady Carthcart at Cluny Castle, Aberdeenshire.The Reynolds portrait was also engraved by William Dickinson in 1775 and a smaller plate followed in 1796.Jane Maxwell (c.1749-1812) was the wife of the 4th Duke of Gordon. She is depicted wearing a white 'Elizabethan' costume with a miniature on a chain. It has been suggested that her dress might have been worn at a masked Ball given by the French Ambassador in 1773. A similar dress is worn by the Duchess of Devonshire in a miniature by Cosway c.1782 (Royal Collection)The sitter was both a political hostess and a fashionable leader of society both in Edinburgh and London. Described in her own lifetime as 'having an open ruddy countenance, quick in repartee, and no one excelling her in performing the honours of the table, her society is generally courted' (The Female Jockey Club, 1794)

JOHN HASLEM (1808-1884) JAMES THOMASON enamel, signed on the counter enamel James Thomason Derby b Jan 16 1786 painted by John Haslem (his nephew) June 1856, 6 x 5cm, gilt brass mount, in red velvet and rosewood outer frame Literature: Haslem (J), The Old Derby China Factory The Workmen and Their Productions, 1876, pp165-6. A Catalogue of.... The Property of John Haslem Derby 1879, "Enamel paintings, miniatures... by Myself, No22 "Portrait of my Uncle, James Thomason, from life, 1856..."Exhibited: Royal Academy 1857, No 657.The subject of this newly rediscovered miniature by the Derby miniaturist John Haslem was an important figure in the history of the Derby Porcelain Factory. James Thomason (1785-1864) was de facto controller of the Derby factory for the whole of the bleakest period in its history, that of Robert Bloor (1778-1846) because for much of Bloor's tenure (from 1811) he was mentally incapacitated. James Thomason was born in Newcastle under Lyme and prior to his employment by Bloor had been the indefatigable traveller (sales representative) for the large Staffordshire manufactuary of Davenport. But for Thomason's involvement, it is difficult to see how the chronically underfunded Derby factory - relying on auction sales to shift stock - would have survived.++Good condition
