Colonel Edmund Gilling Hallewell [1822-1869] Niagara Falls with the old Terrapin Tower and Horseshoe Falls signed bottom right watercolour over pencil heightened with white 23.5 x 34cm, together with two other watercolours [3] Colonel Edmund Gilling Hallewell (1822-1869) was a career soldier, joining the 20th Regiment of Foot as a young ensign in 1839. He served with distinction in the Crimea, where he was Deputy Acting Quartermaster General of the Light Division at the battles of Alma, Inkerman and Sebastopol, and it was during the Crimean campaign that he became acquainted with the photographer, Roger Fenton, and is the subject of no less than four of Fenton’s tableaux of camp life. Hallewell was by this time a noted amateur artist, mainly of topographical subjects [see lots 378 and 379]. As Fenton’s early training was as an artist, the two were no doubt drawn together by their mutual interests, remaining in contact after the Crimean campaign, when Hallewell, by then a lieutenant colonel, was appointed Deputy Quartermaster General in Malta. That he maintained his interest in photography is manifest from the album offered here, and while on home leave in 1860, when he was confirmed as full colonel, he records in his diary (see lot 383) “I went to see the Fentons, he gave me some Photographs. He is also going to do the Photo from my mother’s portrait, which I left with him.” Fenton fulfilled his promise and Hallewell later records that on his return to Malta he sent him a case of oranges in gratitude. It is believed that the images of Bolton Abbey included in this album may have been the gift of Roger Fenton to Col. Hallewell.

Harold Riley (b.1934) - 'The Square', pencil signed artists proof print, no.12/12, 37x37cm, inset in modern gilt frame. NB: The bronze statue of Abraham Lincoln was originally intended to stand outside the Houses of Parliament, a tribute from the USA to Britain to mark the 100 years unbroken peace existing between the two countries since 1814. Manchester argued that it was an appropriate city for such a statue because of its connection with Lincoln, this was reference to the cotton operatives and made in support of the Union and the prohibition of slavery during the American civil war.
