WALTER CRANE (1845-1915) FOR THE ROYAL SCHOOL OF NEEDLEWORK TWO EMBROIDERED PANELS, CIRCA 1876 each embroidered with a central pillar enclosed by large floral and foliate arabesques and cornucopias and by an assortment of birds, animals and a winged figure, within original frames (2) 144cm x 71cm and 140cm x 72cm Note: For panels of a similar design see V&A Collection T.774 to D-1972, a five panel screen with embroidered panels designed by Crane, worked by the School of Art Needlework. This screen, with its complex composition inspired by historical design, was probably exhibited as part of the Royal School of Art Needlework's section at the Philadelphia Exposition of 1876. The screen and these panels reflect Crane's great interest in classical and Renaissance ornament which he often used as the basis of his designs.

* CHARLES OPPENHEIMER RSA RSW (BRITISH 1875 - 1961),A LANDSCAPE IN GALLOWAYoil on canvas board, signed51cm x 61cm (20 x 24 inches)Framed.Label verso: With title and artist's name.Provenance: Private Scottish family collectionNote: Charles Oppenheimer was born in Manchester in 1875. His mother was Scottish and the family owned a mosaic manufacturing business. He studied under Walter Crane at Manchester School of Art and in Italy. Although not a native Scot, (he didn't settle in Scotland until he was in his mid-thirties) he was passionate about his adopted home town of Kirkcudbright and found an endless source of subject matter in the 53 years he lived in the town. Kirkcudbright drew some of Scotland's greatest artists, such as Cadell and Fergusson, and many painters gathered here following the lead of E.A. Hornel. They were primarily attracted to the effect of the light on the hilly ground which produced soft colours and a spectrum of grey. Oppenheimer was a keen fisherman and many of his paintings dealt with the effect of light on water. His views of The Solway Coast and Whitby were used by British Rail for their advertising campaign 'See Britain By Rail'. He retained a love of Italy and produced some excellent canvasses of Venice and Florence. He exhibited regularly at the Royal Scottish Academy in Edinburgh, where he became a full member in 1934.

On Sunday 13th November 10,000 people including William Morris and George Bernard Shaw had demonstrated in Trafalgar Square against repression in Ireland and unemployment. There were violent clashes and many were beaten by police with truncheons. This was the original "Bloody Sunday" and resulted in another protest against the police and army in Trafalgar Square the following week. During this Alfred Linnell was knocked down by a police horse and died later of his injuries, causing a mass outcry. People flocked to his funeral on 18th December and William Morris, as leader of the Socialist League, gave the main address and produced this pamphlet to raise money for Linnell's family.
