Provenance: Bill Thomson, Albany Gallery Martin Speed Ltd Samuel Daniell was the younger brother of William Daniell (1769-1837) and nephew of Thomas. On 5th September 1799 Samuel set off for South Africa, on board HMS Lancaster, in the suite of Sir George Yonge, Governor and Commander-in-Chief of the region. They stopped at Madeira, leaving Funchal on 11th October and arriving at the Cape of Good Hope on 10th December. He returned to England in 1803 and immediately began work on publishing his celebrated African Scenery and Animals. In 1806 he set off once more, this time, for Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), where he remained until his early death in 1811. The Pico, or St John the Baptist Fort was built in the early 17th Century on the hills above Funchal and is one of the key landmarks of the Island. It was built to form part of Madeira's defence system against frequent attacks by the Corsairs. A print after Daniell of Funchal from the sea is dated 1806. Another view of Funchal by Daniell was sold at Sotheby's on 12th April 1995, lot 172 (£8,500 hammer).`

§ GERALD LESLIE BROCKHURST R.A. (BRITISH 1890-1978) THREE PRINTS: ANAIS; YOLANDE (FLORENCE LAYZELL, MRS HENRY RUSHBURY); HEAD OF A GIRL - 1944 Etching, signed in pencil to marginYOLANDE, Etching, signed in plate, signed in pencil to marginHEAD OF A GIRL, Lithograph, signed with initials in print, signed and dated in pencil Dimensions:plate sizes 14cm x 11cm (5.5in x 4.25in); 11.5cm x 8.5cm (4.5in x 3.5in) 29.5cm x 22cm (11.5in x 8.75in), each unframed Provenance:Provenance: Private British collection Note: Gerald Brockhurst’s primary muses were Anäis Folin and Kathleen Woodward. Both sat for numerous portraits and figure studies with the aid of lavish period-style costumes and props, often in whimsical guises inspired by the heroines of Shakespeare or Greek mythology.Anäis, Brockhurst’s first wife, was the defining muse of his early portraiture. For most of the First World War the couple lived in Ireland where they befriended the artist Augustus John. During this period Brockhurst predominantly produced paintings, and was encouraged by John to adopt a freer paint-application technique.Brockhurst had experimented with printmaking in the 1910s, but it was not until the early ‘20s that he committed to etching in earnest. In a market increasingly oversaturated with etchings of landscapes and urban views, Brockhurst concentrated on portraiture, many of which were transpositions of compositions he had painted in the late 1910s and early ‘20s. He soon achieved distinction for his rendering of skin, hair and textiles with astonishing naturalism. Each composition is imbued with a refined stillness, with flesh that appears almost to glow and to possess conceivable weight and mass.From 1928 Brockhurst joined the Royal Academy Schools as a visiting teacher and met the sixteen year old Kathleen Woodward, who went by ‘Dorette’. She became his new muse, and the pair later married.In 1939 the couple moved to America where Brockhurst enjoyed great acclaim. Commissions from prominent figures including Marlene Dietrich, The Duchess of Windsor and J. Paul Getty helped crystallise his legacy as one of the most important British portrait artists of the early twentieth century. A retrospective of Brockhurst’s portraiture was held at the National Portrait Gallery in London, the Graves Gallery in Sheffield and the City Art Gallery in his native Birmingham.
