GOTHIC OAK AND ELM PEW, 19th century, with an oak panel back and ends, a one piece elm seat and exposed pegs to one end, with an oak hymn book rail on the back and 2 cushions, height 89cm, length 136cm Footnote and Provenance: formally in the Church of the Holy Trinity in Walton, Somerset. The church was rebuilt in 1866 and the pew probably dates to this time. It was designed by John Norton, an architect who was greatly influenced by the work of Augustus Pugin. He designed many churches in Somerset and the extensive remodelling of Tyntesfield House near Bristol. The pew is flat at one end and only has exposed pegs to the other as it was designed to fit against a wall.
SIR WILLIAM BEECHEY (1753-1839) PORTRAIT OF CHARLES SMALL PYBUS (1766-1810) Quarter length, wearing a dark coat and white stock, signed with initials and dated 1803, bears contemporary inscription Charles Small Pybus Esqr./ painted by/ Sir William Beechey/ 1803 verso, oil on panel 73 x 60.5cm. * The sitter was born in the East Indies, the second son of a banker. He was educated at Harrow and at St. John's College, Cambridge. Pybus initially pursued a career in the law, having been called to the bar in 1789 and he then impressed William Pitt the Younger as an orator soon after becoming MP for Dover in the same year. He rose to become Lord of the Admiralty (1791), then Lord of the Treasury in 1797 and he held his seat until 1802. Pybus died, unmarried, in 1810. He had a reputation for pomposity and Beechey was not charmed by his sitter: `He was very vain of His knowledge of pictures, but in reality knew nothing abt. them.` (The Diary of Joseph Farington, XI, New Haven and London, 1983, p.3882). Nonetheless, Beechey painted him at least once more, apparently in later life (Dulwich Picture Gallery). That portrait has been dated to the 1790s but is more probably c.1810 Provenance: Acquired by the vendor's father c.1975 ++ Scattered retouching, principally in the background and coat; surface good
