A late 14th/early 15th Century carved oak misericord: the seat supported by a manticore with lion-mask shield, his weapon now lacking, being attacked by two warriors, one with a two-pronged spear, the other with crossbow, 29 x 59cm.* Provenance Other misericords, probably from the same school of carvers, are at St. Mary's Enville, Malvern Priory and particularly Worcester Cathedral and these have been re-ordered once in the 16th Century, twice in the 19th Century, now heavily restored. One Worcester Cathedral misericord is in the V&A Museum. It seems quite probable that the present example was also in Worcester Cathedral.
Sir Edgar Bertram Mackennal KCVO RAA (1863-1931), 'Salome', bronze, base signed 'B Mackennal London' and inscribed with title, the base with two entwined snakes, 29cm high Born in Melbourne, Australia, Mackennal came to England in 1882. He studied in London and Paris, spending five years in the latter city and coming under the influence of French Symbolism and Romanticism. He spent the rest of his life working in London, though he frequently visited Australia and sculpted the portraits of many famous Australians of the early 20th century. He became a proponent of 'The New School of British Sculpture', exhibited at the Royal Academy from 1886, and was elected ARA in 1909 and RA in 1922. He was the first Australian artist to be knighted (1921). Apart from his heads and busts, Mackennal sculpted portrait reliefs and also the profiles of King George V used for coins, medals and postage stamps. His bronzes include a number of statuettes in the Symbolist manner, the most famous of which was Circe (honourable mention at the Salon of 1893) and ‘She sitteth on a Seat in the High Places of the City’. Examples of his work are in public collections: UK - Eton College, Royal Opera House, St Pauls Cathedral, Tate Gallery, London, Windsor Castle, Australia - University of Melbourne (Victoria) and the Art Gallery of New South Wales (Sydney).
