Lot 52

French School, 19th centuryPortrait of a French cavalry officer at the Battle of Smolensk, Napoleon mounted on white horse in the backgroundinscribed 'Prise de Smolinsky/Par la grande armée, en aout/1812' (lower left) watercolour and gouache 62.2 x 99.1cm (24 1/2 x 39in).Footnotes:Lieutenant of the Chasseurs à Cheval of the Imperial Guard at Smolensk, 1812This attractive work depicts an incident during Napoleon's fateful campaign against Russia during 1812. Having defeated the Russians in 1807 and come to an accord in the Treaty of Tilsit, relations between Tsar Alexander I and the French Emperor deteriorated in the following years. Russia resented the ban imposed on its exports of naval timber to Great Britain, was displeased by the establishment of a newly independent Poland and was deeply offended by Napoleon's rejection of the Tsar's sister as his second wife in favour of an Austrian princess. Renewed conflict was inevitable.Napoleon's army - 250,000 French troops and the same number of 'allies', mostly Poles and Germans - entered Russia on 22nd June 1812 and advanced steadily against two retreating Russian armies. Only relatively minor clashes occurred during the 350-mile advance to Smolensk, which was reached in mid-August. The Russians made a stand at Smolensk with Lieutenant-General Raevsky's Corps holding off the Emperor in a bloody two-day battle while the main Russian armies slipped away to fight another day. Napoleon continued his advance, fought the indecisive battle of Borodino on 7th September and occupied Moscow, but was forced into a disastrous retreat by the Russians burning their own capital and the exhaustion of his supplies. The Emperor's forces - about 20,000 survivors - left Russian on 14th December.The principal subject of the painting is an officer of the Chasseurs à Cheval of the Imperial Guard. This regiment of Light Cavalry, best known from the dramatic painting by Théodore Gericault in the Louvre, was a favourite unit of Napoleon's and he was often depicted in its Undress uniform. The regiment acted as the Emperor's mounted escort and is seen at far right following Napoleon's staff with the Emperor in front on a grey horse. Unusually for a campaign setting, the lieutenant is wearing Full Dress comprising leather breeches, dark green horse furniture and dolman and the scarlet pelisse.The Imperial Guard was Napoleon's Corps d'Elite of specially-chosen soldiers who were always reserved in battle to give the final shocking charge to break the enemy after the Line regiments had worn down the opposition. The background of the painting shows serried ranks of infantry and cavalry advancing against the city and the billowing gunpowder smoke of thousands of muskets and hundreds of cannon. The middle ground behind the mounted officer features troops from units of the Imperial Guard including from left to right - Grenadiers in bearskin caps, a Chasseur, a Polish Lancer, a Horse Grenadier and one of the Empress's Dragoons. Two Mamelukes of the Guard and a Gendarme d'élite appear under the horse and at far right Foot Artillerymen and a Dutch Lancer of the Guard are gathered round a fire.We are grateful to Dr. Andrew Cormack for his assistance in cataloguing this lot.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

French School: 15th century."The Virgin and Child in the Manger".Watercolour on parchment.It has humidities that have caused wear and pictorial losses.Measurements: 15 x 11,5 cm.This work is arranged on a page that belongs to a Horarium, also known as the Book of Hours, a type of illuminated manuscript that became popular in the Middle Ages, with religious content. On the page there is a section containing the devotional text, located below the painting showing the Christ Child and his mother in the manger after his birth. The figure behind the Virgin, who is also nimbus-covered, appears to be a representation of Saint Anne, the Virgin's mother, as can be deduced from her feminine clothing and the wrinkles that furrow her cheeks. In this representation of the Holy Family, the presence of the ox indicates that the first moments of the life of Jesus are represented, located in a manger that opens to the exterior and reveals a landscape of greenish and bluish tones. It is worth noting the ornamentation that frames both the image and the text, which stands out for its ornamentation.These works are known as illuminated codices, which were handwritten and illustrated books that were produced in the scriptorium or specialised workshops of the monasteries by monks with great artistic and doctrinal qualifications for the monasteries themselves, the churches and the kings.

A military watercolour, circa 1809-12, depicting the battle honours of the 76th Regiment of Foot, the latest of which being 'Peninsula', the watercolour with the inscription "this gurrah (muslin cloth) was captured in the Indian campaign under Lord Lake", September 1803, measurements 40 x 50 cm (i), frame 51 x 61 cm. Notes: The 76th Regiment of Foot was employed in India in 1788 to fight in the third Anglo-Mysore war, seeing action at the Siege of Bangalore in 1791 and in the famous Siege of Seringapatam of 1792 against the Tipu Sultan, aka the 'Tiger of Mysore'. The regiment later saw service in the Second Anglo-Maratha War and fought at the Siege of Aligarh, a fort that was commanded by the French mercenary officer Pierre Perron. During the battle, the British lost as many as 900 soldiers to the stiffly defended fortress, which was guarded by French artillery, a 14-ft ditch lined with sword blades, poisoned chevaux-de-frise barricades and even lions and tigers. The regiment went on to fight at the Battle of Delhi in September 1803 and the Battle of Laswari in November 1803. For their distinguished service in these actions, King George III authorised the regiment to have the word 'Hindoostan' emblazoned on their regimental colours alongside an elephant badge with a howdah. The regiment returned to England and became the 76th (Hindoostan) Regiment of Foot in October 1806. During the Napoleonic Wars, the regiment was dispatched to Spain and fought in the Siege of Corunna in 1809 before being evacuated from the Peninsular later that same month. The Regiment later reverted its name back to the 76th Regiment of Foot, which combined with the battle honours listed, dates the painting of this watercolour, on earlier captured muslin cloth, to circa 1809-1812.

Antique watercolour 1818 - Approx. image size 35cm x 25cm Antique Water colour painting circa 1818, the painting is framed and marked up as belonging to Leightons Studio.Leighton House was designed and built in 1865-6 by George Aitchison RA for his friend, the great Victorian artist and later President of the Royal Academy, Frederic, Lord Leighton (1830-1896). Progressively adapted to suit Leighton's specifications over the thirty years he lived here, the building includes a north-facing working studio with a picture slot for transferring Leighton's larger works - in its day, one of the sights of London. However, the house was also intended to be a showcase for Leighton's artistic taste, and for his extensive art collection, which included works by Corot, Millais, George Frederic Watts and Lawrence Alma-Tadema. The highlight remains the extraordinary Arab Hall (1877), which reflects Leighton's fascination with the Middle East along with his major collection of fifteenth-century Damascus tiles.Leighton House has been open to the public since 1929, and is situated alongside a number of other studio-houses that were built during the second half of the nineteenth century. Together, these demonstrate the wealth, status and taste of some of the most successful late-Victorian period artists. Though none are still available to visit, Leighton House runs regular tours of the area through the Holland Park Circle.
