Lot 83
A monumental Victorian carved oak, marquetry, marble and gilt metal mounted chimneypiece, circa 1854, by John Thomas, the arched overmantel mirror surmounted with a relief cast gilt electrotype portrait roundel of Sir Isaac Newton, within an arch of foliate marquetry, the decoration extending to guilloche carved pilasters projecting at the front and to each side, above variegated rouge marble columns with Gothic Revival capitals, with vacant plinths below; the marmo nero Belgio fire surround with fluted columnar jambs with foliate gilded electrotype capitals and infill, on octagonal bases, a conforming fire curb below, 376cm high, 244cm wide. This chimneypiece was removed from the Jewish Home and Hospital for Incurables, Tottenham. At nearly four metres in height this spectacular and beautifully crafted chimneypiece was made by John Thomas (1813-1862) for his lifelong patron and friend Sir Samuel Morton Peto (1809-1889). John Thomas was a prolific sculptor whose talent and industry was first noticed by Sir Charles Barry during the building of Pugin’s Birmingham Grammar School and later resulted in Thomas’ appointment as superintendent of stone carving at Barry and Pugin’s progressing Palace of Westminster. The contract for the construction of the new Parliament building was being undertaken by Peto. John Thomas and Morton Peto were to work together for many years. Peto had acquired Somerleyton House near Lowerstoft in the 1840s and commissioned John Thomas as architect and stone mason to undertake the renovations, transforming it from a crumbling Jacobean mansion into a Victorian stately home with fabulous carved chimneypieces throughout. However Peto’s fortunes suffered disaster in the early 1860s when his bank, responsible for paying his firm’s 30,000 staff folded, forcing the sale of Somerleyton House. The house was further renovated over the years but most of Thomas’ chimneypieces survived in situ. Peto himself made a second fortune and by 1854 was able to move from Russell Square to 12 Kensington Palace Gardens and it seems very likely that Peto commissioned the chimneypiece in this lot for that property. Certainly it appeared as a full page feature in GW Yapp’s work for the Art Journal where it was described as having been ‘designed for the Drawing Room of Sir Morton Peto, MP’. The Kensington Palace Gardens house proved to be too small for Peto’s needs, so he built a larger house in the grounds of number 12, (now No.12A, the Nepalese Embassy), number 12 ultimately passing into other ownership. It was Sir Samual Montagu who donated the chimneypiece to the Jewish Hospital in Tottenham in 1906.
