A scale model of a schooner, fully rigged. Length including bowsprit 107cm.From the estate of Ashley Barker OBE who was born in Hertfordshire in 1927.Being unusually bright, he found it difficult to make friends and found solace in architecture and buildings, particularly the simple pastime of walking around buildings on his own. Indeed, his favourite treat as a child was to be taken to St Paul's Cathedral, where he would wander for hours.In 1944 he entered the Architectural Association and qualified at a time of rapid post-war reconstruction, when the lack of building materials forced architects to use industrialised prefabrication techniques and poor design, (in Barker's opinion) prevailed. Frustrated, he drifted into working for MGM, creating film sets. He finally found his niche at the Historic Buildings Division of what was then the London County Council (LCC). After years of working with modernists it was a relief to Barker to find an office where his "young fogeyism" was welcome. He enjoyed working under WA Eden, the Surveyor of Historic Buildings, who was dedicated completing the work of the architect and reformer CR Ashbee, who had listed all the buildings that should be preserved within 20 miles of the Aldgate Pump. This idea became the 'Survey of London' and Barker took over when Eden retired in 1970. The LCC became the GLC and Barker became the head of the Historic Building Commission, working on an advisory committee with notables such as Sir John Betjeman, Sir John Summerson, Sir Osbert Lancaster and Sir Hugh Casson.In 1986, he was appointed head of the London Division of English Heritage. He retired in 1988.

JOHN HUNTER THOMPSON (1808-1890) PORTRAIT OF JOHN NICHOLSON, 'THE AIREDALE POET' (1790-1843) head and shoulders, signed, dated and inscribed verso (This Portrait of John Nicholson the AIREDALE POET John H Thompson Pinxit 1833) oil on canvas, 30.5 x 26cm John Nicholson the Poet of the West Riding was born near Harewood, Yorkshire. Educated privately, he was engaged as a wool sorter in his father's factory, which was to remain his lifelong occupation interrupted by periods of 'dissipation' (DNB) and his writing.H work first appeared in print in 1821, but his poetic ability was recognised four years later with the appearance of Airedale in Ancient Times. Although ill educated some of his shorter compositions are not without originality and even grace (DNB). The Belfast born artist John Hunter Thompson was a sociable and popular member of the thriving Bradford artistic milieu of painters writers and poets that included Branwell Bronte, whose 'salon' and place of annual re-union was The George Hotel, a coaching inN run by the hospitable Margaret Reaney (1815-1893). The present portrait of John Nicholson may be the one mentioned by Butler Wood in 'Some Old Bradford Artists (the Bradford Antiquary 1895, pp 208-209). A friend and contemporary of both men and Branwell Bronte in his ultimately futile attempt to pursue a career as an artist, was the Bradford born portrait painter and early photographer William Overend Geller (1804-1882) who, although spending much of his career in London, maintained strong local connections. It is his portrait of the by then renowned Airedale Poet, similar in composition to the present small scale head and shoulders, by which Nicholson's appearance is known to posterity.++Three old patched repairs on the reverse of the support otherwise unlined, paint shrinkage and retouched cracqueleur, varnish dirty
