Continental School (early 19th century) Still life of gooseberries in a porcelain bowl Oil on canvas Indistinctly signed, dated 1818 and numbered 217 (lower left) 26 x 33.5cm (10 x 13 in.) Unframed Provenance: The collection of Eardley Knollys (1902-1991), friend and associate of the Bloomsbury Group, artist, critic and owner of the Storran Gallery, London, from 1936 to 1944 Bequeathed to Mattei Radev (1927-2009) and, subsequently, to the present owner   Eardley Knollys (1902-1991) was born in Alresford, Hampshire. He studied at Winchester College and continued his education at Christ Church College in Oxford. Knollys interest in the arts and his reputation as an art critic grew during the 1920s and in 1936 Knollys opened The Storran Gallery, opposite Harrods with his partner Frank Coombs. The gallery exhibited renowned artists such as Amedeo Modigliani, Maurice Utrillo, Ivon Hitchens, Pablo Picasso and Victor Pasmore to name just a few. Coombs tragically passed away in an air raid during World War II in Belfast in 1941. Knollys closed the gallery shortly afterwards.   In 1945, Knollys along with music critic and novelist Edward Sackville-West and music critic Desmond Shawe-Taylor purchased a Georgian rectory in Long Crichel, Dorset. Along with James Lees-Milne, literary critic Raymond Mortimer and gay activist and eye surgeon Patrick Trevor-Roper, the house became a centre for young creatives, where these young men and their friends could immerse themselves in books, music, art and poetry. These passionate young men hosted guests such as Ben Nicholson, Duncan Grant, Sibyl Colefax and film director Anthony Asquith.   Knollys joined James Lees-Milne working for the National Trust during World War II and published diaries recording their trips to some of the most renowned British country houses.   In 1965, Knollys, a well respected art critic and member of the Bloomsbury art group inherited a collection of artworks which had belonged to Edward Sackville-West. In 1967 Knollys and Mattei Radev purchased a hunting lodge in Hampshire and they both painted and worked in the artist's studio attached to the lodge. Knollys' interest in the arts continued and he added to the collection right up until his death in 1991. Knollys' collection was bequeathed to Mattei Radev, who continued to grow the important collection.   Mattei Radev became an iconic member of the artistic and literary Bloomsbury group. Radev was a Bulgarian émigré who settled initially in Glasgow after escaping Bulgaria through Turkey. When he first arrived in London he started working at Whittington Hospital as an orderly and met eye surgeon Patrick Trevor-Roper. Trevor-Roper was a gay activist and introduced Radev to likeminded friends in London. Influenced by these new acquaintances in artistic circles Radev decided to pursue an apprenticeship in framing. In 1960 he set up his own workshop in Fitzrovia with the help of a financial loan from Eardley Knollys. Clients included John Banting, Graham Sutherland and Duncan Grant. The framers continued under Radev's management until the 1990s. Radev visited Long Crichel many times and met his life-long lover E.M. Forster, the notable novelist and literary critic.   The Radev collection represents the three strong individuals involved, Sackville-West who championed Modernism, Eardley Knollys whose passion for French Impressionism shines through and Radev for his loyalty to British artists with whom he was friends and in business with.

Coonan was born in Boise, Idaho, on 24 April 1918, and entered the Air Service in 1941 as an aviation cadet. He flew P-40 (Lightning) fighters with 26th Fighter Squadron in the CBI (China-Burma-India) Theatre, being credited with shooting down one Japanese Zero aircraft on 25 February 1943, also claiming a “Helen” bomber as a probable. Transitioning to P-51s in the 38th Fighter Squadron and moving to Europe, Coonan brought down three German aircraft, on 13 September and 2 November, 1944, and 3 January 1945. On this latter day, which was his 34th combat mission, Coonan was leading a flight of eight when he was shot down by another member of his squadron, 1st Lieutenant Dudley Amoss, by accident, spending the rest of the war as a prisoner of War. Of the sortie, 2nd Lieutenant Jones reported: ‘Capt. Coonan was leading a flight of 8 Mustangs approx. 10-20 miles south of Ulm, Germany. (He was flying P-51D aircraft CG-P s/n 44-14358 “Portland Rose”). Several German trainer planes were spotted flying formation a few thousand feet below us. Captain Coonan led the attack and shot down one enemy plane. Several seconds later he said that he had been hit. At low altitude he passed over a small town and belly landed on a snow-covered field adjacent to this town. I took several camera shots of the airplane which seemed to be in good condition, and while doing this I did not observe the pilot's presence in or around the plane. The remaining seven planes then proceeded towards home.’ German J 2735, reported the capture of Captain Coonan at 1300 on 3 January 1945, at Gutensell, near Laupheim. The aircraft was reported 12 to 15 percent damaged. The report further stated that Captain Coonan was shot down by ‘friendly aircraft, Mustang!’ The letters on the aircraft were CG-P. The report, which was addressed to Evaluation Centre West, Oberursel, also contained the names of 16 pilots, (the entire 38th fighter Squadron), with their corresponding plane identification letters and pilot's name that had flown on that mission! This was one of the many reasons Hanns Scharff, the interrogator at Oberursel, could name familiar members of the prisoner's squadron to him. While in prison camp, at Stalag Luft I, Coonan was quoted as saying that if he ‘caught that son-of-a-bitch (in his flight) who shot him down he'd kill him!’ Lieutenant Dudley Amoss recalls: ‘While at Stalag Luft I, I ran into Jack Coonan. He told me that his wingman had shot him down. I had to level with him and tell him that it was me who shot him down! I explained that I saw what appeared to be a lone Me-109 flying low on the deck, heading into Germany. It was a long, long, shot. I gave him a lot of lead and fired. He crash-landed. Much to my horror, as I passed over him, I recognized the plane as a P-51. Jack didn’t get angry. He just grimaced and shook his head.’ He stayed in the Air Force, serving in Greenland, England, Morocco, Iran, Vietnam, Burma, Pakistan and the Philippines. Additionally, during one assignment, he exchanged with an officer with the Royal Australian Air Force, being the first foreigner to command a R.A.A.F. squadron; 75 Squadron flying CAC Sabres. He also commanded the 1st T.F.S. flying F-100D Super Sabres. He received the Legion of Merit for planning U.S. air operations during the invasion of the Dominican Republic in 1965 and 2 clusters plus 3 Bronze Stars while serving in Vietnam. He retired has a Colonel (O-6) in 1975.

Two unusual Staffordshire Greyhound groupsmid-19th centuryeach group modelled as two greyhounds lying intertwined on oval naturalistic mossy bases, single gilt line, 19cm high (2)Condition report: Group 1 (Grey greyhound lying on top of russet greyhound) - Firing crack running horizontally to the underside of the rim, approximately 13cm long. Lots of rubbing to the gilded line around the base. Losses of paint/general rubbing to the black claws of each dog, alongside the tips of the noses, eyes and whiskers. The darkened rear spine of the grey greyhound is heavily worn, but some of this is possibly an original mottling of the pattern on the dog's coat.Further sections of wear and rubbing to the green enamels on the base. The russet hound has several firing cracks to its rear-end, at the junction where the grey's paws meet the body. No damages or repairs.Group 2 (Russet greyhound lying on top of the grey greyhound) - Hairline crack running down the centre of the forehead and nose. Very similar enamel losses to the previous group, with wear to mostly the black decorated and the green base. Likewise, the gilding on the base is worn. There is one very small flake of missing glaze to the spine of the russet hound and a small dark grey patch of discolouration to its leading leg, with another by the tail. Overall, both groups would benefit from a good clean and there are some further patches of brown discolouration, which seem to come off easily with a damp cloth. No further damages to either group or any signs of restoration.
