John Brett ARA (1831-1902) Portrait study of Daisy, the artist's daughter, aged 19 months Dated and inscribed Sketch of Daisy/age 19 months/aug 13 1874 (upper right) and signed and inscribed Presented to Pollie/august 16th 1874/John Brett (to verso) Oil on board 20.9 x 17cm; 8¼ x 6¾in Provenance: Given by the artist to his wife Mary Brett, 16 August 1874; By descent to the sitter, Daisy Watson (née Brett); Maas Gallery, London, 1991; Private Collection Literature: Christiana Payne and Charles Brett, John Brett Pre-Raphaelite Landscape Painter (Yale, 2010), p.217, no 713 (unseen and unlocated by the author and listed as (?)pencil) We are grateful to Charles Brett for his assistance cataloguing the present work, and for the following information: This charming study of his second child, and eldest daughter, Daisy, was painted in Guernsey, where Brett and his family spent the summer of 1874. A few days later he presented it to his wife Mary (also known as Pollie). After her death in 1911, it was inherited by the sitter (then Daisy Watson), and passed down in her family until its acquisition by the Maas Gallery in 1991. Brett made oil studies of all his seven children at some point in their early years, although from 1879 onwards he preferred to use the camera to record their activities.

Seán Keating (Irish 1889-1977) after Sir William Orpen KBE, RA, RHA (Irish 1878-1931) Portrait of James Hugh Smith-Barry (1816-1856), bust-length, wearing a black coat and blue waistcoat. Oil on canvas 61.1 x 46cm; 24 x 18in Together with a collection of letters from Sir William Orpen to Lord Barrymore relating to the work. Provenance: Commissioned in 1916 from Seán Keating via Sir William Orpen, by Arthur Hugh Smith-Barry, 1st Baron Barrymore (1843-1925); And by descent According to the enclosed letters, in 1904 Lord Barrymore commissioned Sir William Orpen to paint a posthumous portrait of his father, based on an 1854 pastel sketch by James Rannie Swinton, which was hung at Fota House. Orpen discusses the difficulty of painting from a drawing, as well as advising Lord Barrymore how best to light the work. In 1916, Lord Barrymore evidently wanted a second version to hang in his Cheshire home, Marbury Hall. Apparently Orpen was not able to accept the commission but he arranged for his former pupil Seán Keating to undertake the work.
