Lot 1242

ROBERT GEMMELL HUTCHISON RSA RSW RBA ROI (SCOTTISH 1855 - 1936), GULLS AT ST ABBS oil on canvas, signed 76.2cm x 101.6cm (30 x 40 inches) Framed. Provenance: The estate of the artist and by descent. Note: Robert Gemmell Hutchison was born and educated in Edinburgh. He was soon recognised by the art fraternity and became one of the most prolific exhibitors of his day. He was elected to many prestigious academies throughout the British Isles, including; The Royal Society of British Artists, The Royal Institute of Oil Painters, The Royal Society of Painters in Watercolour and The Royal Scottish Academy. There are close similarities between his work and some of the Glasgow School of Painters in particular, in his use of broad brushstrokes and soft, mute colouring. Coastal views are most effective on a large scale, an inspiration Hutchison would have drawn from William McTaggart, and the younger artist was instructed by him at the Trustees' Academy in 1877 alongside notable contemporaries such as Arthur Melville and Patrick William Adam. This painting is a relatively rare and large example of a Gemmell Hutchison coastal view without children playing in the foreground. The McTaggart influence is obviously strong.

A rare Indo-Portuguese mother of pearl and brass Dish, Gujarat, India, 17th Centuryof shallow rounded form on a short foot, with petal-edged everted rim, fashioned on both sides with lobed and rectangular plaques in the form of a stylised lotus and secured by metal pins, 17.3cm diam x 2.5cm high, minor losses to undersideFootnote:Gujarat, in Western India, was a centre for artisanal mother-of-pearl work that was in high demand both in the Mughal court and abroad. Records from the Grünes Gewölbe (Green Vault) in Dresden indicate that these wares were being imported to Europe from as early as the second quarter of the sixteenth century. Regarded as exotic and precious, they were exchanged as gifts within the palaces and courts of Europe, and although they were produced in functional western shapes (ewers, dishes, basins, etc), they were not used but displayed in cabinets of curiosity. The commissioning of such wares was particularly associated with the Portuguese who were the earliest European traders in western India, and examples are found in several Portuguese collections. Indeed Manuel I of Portugal and Francis I of France both have mother-of-pearl objects listed in their collections in 1522 and 1529 respectively. In Britain, Thomas Cromwell gave Henry VIII a mother-of-pearl ewer set in gold as New Year's gift in 1524 (Philippa Glanville, Silver in Tudor and Early Stuart England, 1997, p.319). Cf. Amin Jaffer, Luxury Goods from India, 2002, pp.38-39, no. 11, for an example of a basin in the Victoria and Albert Museum
