Joseph Heard (British, 1799-1859)Douglas Bay, Isle of Man, c. 1840 oil on canvas67 x 107cm (26 3/8 x 42 1/8in).Footnotes:ProvenanceWith N.R. Omell Gallery, London, as 'Douglas Harbour with Douglas bay and the coast to the north, Isle of Man'.A.S. (Sam) Davidson Esq., acquired from the above, likely in the early 1970s, and thence by family descent.LiteratureA.S. (Sam) Davidson, Marine Art & Liverpool, Wolverhampton, 1986, pp. 52-53, illustrated p. 56 as number 56a together with a key to the various landmarks in the picture.In this book Sam Davidson wrote of this painting:'It is not signed or dated but was inscribed on the canvas as being the work of Joseph Heard, and the style certainly bears out the attribution. As a composition it is most attractive and somewhat unusual for Heard, in that the sea and the shipping are subsidiary to the main topographical interest. In passing it might be noted that the painting shows the birth place of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution. In large measure this resulted from the efforts of Sir William Hillary who was responsible amongst other things for erecting the 'Tower of Refuge' on the Conister Rock clearly shown in the middle of the bay.Possibly the picnic party in the foreground might have resulted in a call for advice or assistance from brother Isaac. The hand of the marine painter is however clearly apparent in the detail of the vessels, especially the I.O.M. Packet and also the depicting of a gentle offshore breeze approaching from the north. This is indicated by the smoke from the distant steamer's funnel and the smacks in the middle distance whose sails are already filling. Those off the Pier Head are still becalmed but the breeze is already stirring the flag on the elevated tower of Fort Ann in the foreground.' ..........................................................................The Isle of Man and the RNLI -The Isle of Man will always be synonymous with the RNLI, for it was here in Douglas Bay during the early part of the 19th century that Sir William Hillary, the founder of the RNLI, witnessed at first hand, the plight of seafaring folk. The waters surrounding the island can be notoriously inhospitable. In 1787 the Manx fishing fleet was caught in ferocious weather on the night of 21 September and 50 ships and 161 crew were lost in Douglas Bay. No-one had gone to their rescue, nor did it seem possible that anyone could have helped saved lives. No one, that is, except Sir William Hillary when he came to live in the Isle of Man in 1808 and heard accounts, not only of the tragic events of 1787, but of many other losses caused as flimsy boats struggled against in gales in the Irish Sea. William Hillary was born in 1771 and brought up on a small farm in Wensleydale. In the 1790s he was appointed equerry to Prince Augustus Frederick, the sixth son of King George III. with whom he travelled to the Mediterranean. Returning to live in Liverpool he was made a baronet in 1805. Sir William's first wife was an heiress whose wealth he had used to fund an army against the threatened Napoleonic invasion of England. The marriage broke up, and a considerably poorer Sir William came to live in Douglas, Isle of Man, renting a house at the top of Prospect Hill. He entered the commercial world of the Island, re-married to a Manx woman, Amelia, and inherited money from his elder brother Richard. It was while mixing with the seafaring community around Douglas that Sir William learned of past tragedies, which moved him to, in his words, 'a powerful interest'. If there is one event in Sir William's life which served as the catalyst for the founding of the RNLI it was 6 October 1822, the day the Royal Navy cutter Vigilant was caught in a storm off Douglas Bay and, in an attempt to avoid another vessel, ran onto St Mary's Isle, or Conister Rock as is it now known. Sir William came down to the harbour to see what could be done to save Vigilant's crew. There had been no lifeboat at Douglas since the wrecking of the Atholl in 1814, but Sir William borrowed a small rowing boat, and with some Naval officers, rescued Vigilant by towing her into Douglas Bay. As the storm gathered strength. Sir William offered cash rewards for more volunteers to help other schooners in difficulty, resulting in the saving of 97 lives.Overwhelmed –The seeds were sown in Sir William's mind of the desperate need for some form of life saving society. 10 weeks later a second incident convinced him even more when the 18-gun brig Racehorse foundered on rocks at Langness Point. Five boats were dispatched, rescuing some of the crew, but on the final run one boat was overwhelmed, claiming the lives of nine men. By now Sir William saw only too clearly the need for a national life-saving movement. He believed the three key areas for such a movement should be: the design and building of suitable lifeboats; their automatic manning by trained crews; and the payment of compensation to volunteers who were injured or pensions to bereaved families. By February 1823 Sir William had prepared his historic proposition, entitled: 'An appeal to the British nation on the humanity and policy of forming a National Institution for the preservation of lives and property from shipwreck' which he directed to the First Lord of The Admiralty. Response to his appeal was slow at first, but when it was recirculated some months later, to politicians, diplomats and leading businessmen of the day, it met with greater success. The result was the momentous meeting at the tavern in Bishopsgate on 4 March 1824, the day the 'National Institution or the Preservation of Life from Shipwreck' was formed with King George IV as its patron. 30 years later this body became the Royal National Lifeboat Institution. Under his guidance Douglas received two new lifeboats, one from the newly formed Institution, the other bought with money from insurers, but Sir William also saw the need for lifeboat stations at strategic points around the Island. With Sir William as president, the Isle of Man District Association of what was to become the RNLI was formed in January 1826, with the first station established in Douglas, followed by Castletown in 1827, Peel in 1828, and Ramsey in 1829. And all the while, ships were faced with the perils of the Irish Sea. On 19 October 1825 the steam packet City of Glasgow was caught in a storm outside Douglas harbour and Sir William offered fishermen £5 each to go with him in the new Douglas lifeboat, Nestor. He mustered a crew of seven and Sir William and his crew, along with Douglas' second lifeboat, True Blue, rowed out to save those on board. The rescue earned Sir William a second medal, the first having been awarded in 1825 in recognition of his work for the Institution. During the first five years of the Institution's existence 45 lifeboats were provided around the UK coast, four of which were stationed in the Isle of Man.Foundered -Sir William received a number of awards for bravery, the most memorable following the mission to save those on board the packet St. George on 20 November 1830, an event which nearly cost the 59-year-old Sir William his life. Sir William commanded the Douglas lifeboat as it set out in a fierce gale to help the ship which had foundered on Conister Rock. Dashed against St. George the lifeboat lost its rudder and six of its oars. Sir William was washed overboard with some of the crew and had to be hauled onto the packet's deck. No one perished, but Sir William was badly injured - six broken ribs and a crushed chest bone. The heroic rescue was recognised by the award of four medals - two gold and two silver - with one of the golds to Sir William. The St. George incident prompted Sir William to construct the Tower of Refuge - the landmark in Douglas Bay - as a sanctuary for shipwrecked mariners. ...

Workshop of ANTONIO DEL CASTILLO Y SAAVEDRA (Cordoba, 1616 - 1668)."Salome receiving the head of Saint John the Baptist".Oil on canvas. Preserves original canvas.Presents inscription on the back.Measurements: 66 x 50 cm; 75 x 59 cm (frame).Herodias, wife of Herod Philip, married in a scandalous way with his half-brother, Herod Antipas, which provoked a war, since Herod Antipas had repudiated his previous wife, daughter of the Nabataean monarch. The attitude of the new marriage was highly criticised by the people, as it was considered sinful, and one of those who denounced it the most was John the Baptist, for which he was arrested, although Herod did not dare to execute him for fear of the people's wrath. According to tradition, Salome, a woman of great beauty, danced for her stepfather, and he enthusiastically offered to grant her the prize she desired. The young woman then asked, following her mother's instructions, for the Baptist's head, which was given to her "on a silver platter". This work stands out for its narrative unity, as we can appreciate the precise moment when Salome receives the head of the saint, who has just been beheaded. The dramatic way in which the saint's body is presented to the viewer is particularly noteworthy, and is heightened by the way in which Salome steps on the dead body of Saint John.Due to the technical characteristics of the work, this painting can be classified as one of Antonio del Castillo's artistic circle. Considered the father of the Cordovan school, known for his work as a painter, he was also a polychromator and designer of architectural, decorative and goldsmith's projects. He was the son of Agustín del Castillo, a little-known painter from Llerena (Extremadura) whom Palomino describes as an "excellent painter". It is also thought that he may have trained as a polychromator in Calderón's workshop. However, he was orphaned when he was only ten years old in 1626 and went on to train in the workshop of another painter of whom we have no record, Ignacio Aedo Calderón. Although there is no real evidence of this, it is thought that he may have arrived in Seville, where, according to Palomino, he entered Zurbarán's workshop. This has been corroborated by the stylistic influence of the Extremaduran master that historians have seen in Castillo's work. However, in 1635 he returned to his native Cordoba, where he married and settled permanently, eventually becoming the city's most important artist without question. His fame and quality earned him important commissions, including religious altarpieces, portraits and medium-format series. He was also the teacher of outstanding Cordoban painters of the following generation, such as Juan de Alfaro and Gámez. With regard to his language, Antonio del Castillo did not develop an obvious evolution in his work, although towards the end of his life a more softened language can be discerned, and he remained on the fringes of the baroque innovations of other contemporary painters. However, like the rest of his contemporaries, he was seduced by the novelty of Murillo's work, and in his last years he introduced the Venetian chromatic softness of the Sevillian master. Today, examples can be found in the Prado Museum, the Hermitage in St Petersburg, the J. Paul Getty in Los Angeles, the Louvre, the Metropolitan in New York, etc.
