Albert Houthuesen, Dutch/British 1903-1979- Miner smoking a pipe; oil on canvas, signed, 69x51cm, (may be subject to Droit de Suite) Note: Albert Houthuesen on painting the miners at the Point of Ayre Colliery: "In the evening, I would watch the colliers walking back from the Point of Ayre Colliery. It was the first time I'd seen these fellows. They came into that village absolutely black so that until eventually I came to know them and saw them washed, I couldn't recognise them as being the same men. Sometimes I would just begin to ask one or two colliers if they would sit." see http://www.houthuesen.com/ for further information Provenance: From the art collection at the former St Gabriel's College, Camberwell. St Gabriel's was a Church of England teacher training college, founded in 1899 and closed in 1978. Its Art Department attracted talented teachers and artists whose vocation was to inspire young teachers through studying and imitating the work of great artists. The paintings and drawings in this collection were collected by the College's staff through donations and purchases during the interwar and post-war periods. After the College's closure, the collection was transferred to the ownership of an educational trust and until recently loaned to Goldsmith's University of London.

DU MAURIER DAPHNE: (1907-1989) British Author. T.L.S., Daphne, two pages, 8vo, Menabilly, Par, Cornwall, 4th March 1961, to 'My dear' (Foy Quiller-Couch). Du Maurier announces 'Here is your copy of Castle Dor (no longer present) and it comes to you with my fond love' and continues 'I really did enjoy every minute of doing it, and should Mr. Bozman pull a face, and American editors threw it from the window, at least I believe it will give you a quiet chuckle, and perhaps pipe a few tears as well. I want you to read it straight through from beginning to end as though you have not seen it before, and you cannot but notice, here and there, I have made tiny cuts and alterations in the original m.s. which seemed to me necessary for the whole'. She further writes 'Some of the dialogue between Carfax and Ledru was really a little too learned in places for today's reader, and inclined to hold up the story, so there have been some abbreviations. If there is anything you dislike, or think may be technically at fault (to do with customs, etc, of the period, roughly mid 1860s) will you make a note of the page, and let me know? Its not too terribly long after all, I should think about 95,000 words, which is a good size for a novel.' VG Foy Quiller-Couch - daughter of British writer Arthur Quiller-Couch (1863-1944), and a life-long friend of Du Maurier. Indeed, Du Maurier was accompanied by Foy Quiller-Couch when she became inspired with the storyline for her novel Jamaica Inn. Some years previously the two ladies were staying at Jamaica Inn and went riding on Bodmin Moor. They became lost in bad weather conditions and apparently sheltered for some time in a derelict cottage on the moor but were eventually led back to Jamaica Inn by their horses. Castle Dor is a historical novel which was not completed by Arthur Quiller-Couch at the time of his death. Du Maurier completed the work, at the request of Foy Quiller-Couch, which was published in 1961. The story is based around the legend of Tristan and Iseult, although set in 19th century Cornwall.
