Vivian-Neal of Poundisford Park, Somerset, from whom acquired byWith Lane Fine Art, UK, where purchased by the present owners in 1996Literature'Poundisford Park, Somerset' in Country Life, 22 December 1934, ill.A.W. and C.M. Vivian-Neal, Poundisford Park, Somerset: A catalogue of pictures and furniture, Taunton 1939, cat. nos. 11 and 13Jane Grey was the daughter of William and Ann Grey of Backworth: born on the 30 August 1713, she married Captain Robert Austen in 1748. Jane was brought up at the home of her uncle, Richard Gifford in Poland Street in Soho, until his death in 1739, when she moved to nearby Dean Street, where she continued to live after her marriage until her death in 1753. The Country Life article compares the composition of Jane's portrait to Gainsborough's celebrated portrait of Mrs Robinson in the Wallace Collection, 'even to the train of convolvulus in the background.'Ralph William Grey's father, the first Ralph William was thirty-four when he married Miss Molly Rawstorne, who bore him a daughter, who died in infancy and a son, the present sitter. Within a year of his birth Mrs Grey died and, according to the Country Life article 'From that time forward all Mr Grey's faculties were concentrated on the well-being of his son. The possession of an heir gave zest to his efforts to build up the family fortune: he was successful in most of his ventures. Years later his interest in life was centred in the home of his daughter-in-law and grandchildren' (op. cit.). Grey's right hand is depicted in the present portrait resting on Locke's Essays and the Country Life article also records that there are constant references to John Locke in Grey's notebooks; he is thought to have visited the widow of the philosopher in France when he made his grand tour in 1733. It is thought that the suit shown in the portrait is the one he wore for the Court Ball in May 1736 on the occasion of the marriage of Frederick Louis, Prince of Wales, at which time Grey was living in Leicester Fields.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: * TP* VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.TP Lot will be moved to an offsite storage location (Cadogan Tate, Auction House Services, 241 Acton Lane, London NW10 7NP, UK) and will only be available for collection from this location at the date stated in the catalogue.
