FOLLOWER OF JOHN E. FERNELEYTHE MARQUIS OF WORCESTER WITH WILLIAM LONG, MASTER OF THE BEAUFORT HUNT AND THE HUNTING SWEEP IN FRONT OF BADMINTON HOUSE Oil on canvas76cm x 104cm (30in x 41in)Note: The Marquis of Worcester with William Long, Master of the Beaufort Hunt and the Hunting Sweep in front of Badminton House, 1837 is an intriguing painting that, at first, seems a typical sporting scene but upon closer inspection revels the fascinating story of 'the hunting sweep.' Mounted on a chestnut brown horse sits a charismatic man, hat in hand, face blackened with soot and a sweep brush tucked under his arm. He accompanies four gentlemen fashionably dressed in green hunting coats with hounds eagerly poised for the day's activities. The 'sooted' man seems rather out of place in this traditional sporting portrait - depicting the young Marquess of Worcester, Henry Charles Fitzroy Somerset (1824-1899), preparing to ride with William Long, the Huntsman to the Beaufort Hunt, in the grounds of Badminton House in 1837 - however, research into contemporary accounts of the period show 'The Badminton Sweep', William Vizard of Chipping Sudbury, to be an important figure in the scene.Born in 1792, Vizard was a chimney sweep that had industriously found himself in the circles of the gentry and was somewhat of a celebrity. According to the news of the day, he had come to acquire property, "political creed" and the favour of the 6th Duke of Beaufort. Although a man of Reformist principals, when approached by two Reform candidates seeking his support and vote in the local elections of 1829, Vizard surprisingly responded "to tell you the truth, gem'mem, I can't vote for you, 'cause I hunts with the Duke."Three years on, in 1832, Vizard demonstrated his political influence again when the 6th Duke's son, the Marquess of Worcester (set to become the 7th Duke in 1835) was running for a seat. During the hustings, the sweep moved forward vehemently declaring support for the Marquess. According to the account, Vizard continued to express his displeasure of the state of country, stating he no longer supported the Reformists and that 'they must be swept away and kept out of power, or you may depend upon it there will be no stability in our Constitution then in a tottering chimney during a high wind.' The Marquess was shortly elected. When the 6th Duke of Beaufort died in 1835, Vizard removed himself from the hunting scene for a period of mourning. His return was famously recorded in several periodicals in an article entitled 'The Hunting Sweep, or a Day with the Duke of Beaufort'. It was no quiet affair and demonstrating his horseman skills, Vizard jumped on his horse, stood upon one leg with the other extended mid-air, reins in one hand and his sweep brush in the other, 'like a flying Mercury.' The renowned sporting artist, Richard Barrett Davis (1782 -1854), captured the scene in The Sporting Sweep, a portrait reproduced alongside the tale in a many a publication including The Gentleman's Magazine (1838) and Craven's The Sporting Review (1840).'We must not omit to notice the appearance, on this occasion, of a very distinguished character, who takes a prominent part in all the sports in this quarter of the country-we mean the celebrated "hunting sweep, vot 'unts with the Dook," and who has been made the subject of a very diverting electioneering caricature. He appeared as usual, mounted on his "trusty old 'unter," and in the identical sables, both as to skin and toggery, which mark and distinguish his peculiar vocation, not omitting his chimney-brush, which was tucked in his 'unting belt. His urbanity of manner, and respectfully familiar mode of recognising and addressing his aristocratical brother sportsmen, caused many smiles and much wonderment among those who were not acquainted with the friendly footing which he has obtained among the sons of the turf equally zealous followers of the "brush."' - Cheltenham Looker, Saturday 21 December 1839.At first glance the subject of this picture appears to be a typical hunting scene, in which clear lines are drawn between the social strata. However, it is not until further exploration that we discover the sooty sweep, astride his faithful chestnut Prosper, to be not just an addition but the main attraction.

Nick Hugh McCann (British, b.1957) Lord Byron sees Nicolo Giraud for the first time in Attica, Greece in 1809 signed lower left with initials "NHM" oil on linen in a water-gilded frame by Russell & Chapple (Store Street Framing) with a title plaque by Gino Franchi, Bond Street, London 91 x 121cm (35 x 47in) Provenance: Commissioned by Byronists and Collectors, Messrs Clarke & Davidson in 2016, the picture has come back to the artist's collection through bequest Other Notes: Lord Byron went on a cultural Grand Tour of Europe between July 1809 and July 1811, departing from Falmouth in Cornwall and returning to Sheerness in Kent. After an extended tour of southern Portugal, Spain and Gibraltar, he embarked upon a Mediterranean island-hopping adventure, falling in love in every port and at every possible opportunity with women and men alike. To help ward off local banditti, troublemakers and undesirables, he wore an iconic and highly visible scarlet English Staff tunic when riding out; the Peninsular Wars were raging and parts of Continental Europe had great respect for the British military uniform. He finally settled in Athens, in those days no larger than a small town, with the nearby port of Piraeus equally undeveloped and idyllic. There, Byron formed a strong romantic and sexual bond with the young Nicolo Giraud; Greek born, with French parents. A brilliant linguist, the young and charismatic Giraud helped teach Byron Greek and Italian - the romantic language Byron came to love during his later years of exile in Italy. Athens' Acropolis and the Parthenon are seen in the distance with Mount Lycabettus beyond. To the right is the Temple of Poseidon on Cape Sounion, immortalised in Byron's poem, The Isles of Greece: Place me on Sunium's marbled steep, Where nothing, save the waves and I, May hear our mutual murmurs sweep; There, swan-like, let me sing and die: A land of slaves shall ne'er be mine Dash down yon cup of Samian wine ! Byron died in Missolonghi, Western Greece in 1824 and today, a version of McCann's watercolour Lord Byron's Last Journey, hangs in the Mayor's office in the town. The work also featured in Kirsty Walk's BBC documentary, Byron - Exile on Fame Street. The artist has visited every location associated with Byron in Britain and Europe including Albania before it was an accessible country. Condition is fine.

A FINE BUILDER'S MIRROR-BACK HALF MODEL FOR THE STEAM YACHT MINGARY, DESIGNED BY G.L. WATSON AND BUILT BY THE AILSA SHIP BUILDING CO., TROON, 1899, the carved laminated hull with varnished and white decks and gold- and silver-plated deck fittings with details including carved female figurehead, fairleads and bollards, ventilators, steam anchor winch, anchor davits, deck rails, companionways, superstructure with wood-capped deck rails, wheelhouse and open bridge over, with binnacle and engine room telegraphs and wheel, engine room lights, shelter and promenade deck over cabin accommodation with port holes, window and doors, aft steering position and capstan, three ship~s boats in davits with bottom boards, thwarts and gratings, mounted within original glazed case with front-silvered mirror and ivorine builder~s plate (case lacking finials) -- 16« x 64«in. (42 x 164cm.), Built for Charles D. Rudd, Mingary measured 187« x 27ft with a near 15ft draught. An attractive vessel as one might expect from Watson~s, she was launched in May 1899 and delivered that August. Fitted with twin raked masts, her triple expansion engine was supplied by Dunsmuir & Jackson of Glasgow which developed 123nhp giving a respectable 13 knots from a single screw. Hired by the Royal Navy in 1915, she was armed with single 13-pdr and 6-pdr guns and served in the auxiliary patrol service, being used after the Battle of Jutland to sweep for survivors. It was during this service she was badly holed and limped to Rosyth harbour where she sank at her moorings. Raised in March 1919 she was sold to the Egypt & Levant S.S. Co. who converted her for commercial service. Sold again in 1924 to Turkish owners who renamed her Sevintch, she was sunk on the 26th December 1927 in a collision with the S.S. Marmara off Boz Burnu.
