Lot 257
§ Lionel Edwards, RI (1878-1966) 'The Essex' - with the huntsman and hounds, followed at a distance by the fieldsigned, dated and inscribed 'Lionel Edwards / The Essex 1928' (lower right)gouache on paper51 x 75cmProvenance:Commissioned directly from the artist by his friend, John 'Jack' Newman Gilbey (1888-1984) of Glan Avon, Harlow, Essex,Thence by descent to his great-nephewLiterature: Country Life, 22nd December 1950, vol. CVIII, no. 2814, ‘A Sporting Artist at Work – article and photos by Jack Gilbey’, pages untraced; J N P Watson, Lionel Edwards: Master of the Sporting Scene, 1986, pp. 107-111 The present picture and the subsequent lot were both painted for John ‘Jack’ Newman Gilbey (1888-1984) a friend and patron of Lionel Edwards. He was the son of Newman Gilbey (1862-1942) a nephew of Sir Walter Gilbey, 1st Bt. (1831-1914) the well-known wine merchant, agriculturalist and breeder of shire horses, and Maria Victorina de Ysasi (1865-1937). The Gilbey family of Mark Hall, Latton, near Harlow, had long hunted with the Essex, particularly Jack’s father, Newman, and his younger siblings, Carmen (b. 1894-) and Frank (1896-1973) (see C D Bruce, The Essex Foxhounds, 1895-1926, p. 63). Newman Gilbey was a Justice of the Peace for Essex and had been a generous supporter of the Essex Hounds for thirty years.The landscape view of White Roding in the background of the present picture was specifically chosen by Jack Gilbey, as he describes in an account originally published in Country Life in 1950: “With his usual thoroughness Lionel went out for a day with the hunt in order to take stock of the huntsman, his horse and the pack. In the meantime he had asked me to suggest a typical Essex setting, and I thought I could not do better than choose the distant view of the village of White Roding, with undulating ploughland in foreground and middle distance, which had been familiar to me from boyhood” (see Literature, Watson, p. 107). The present painting was completed in April 1928 in Edwards’ studio at Buckholt, West Tytherley, near Salisbury and upon presenting it to his patron, Edwards smilingly remarked: “I have given you an extremely well-behaved field. Every member of the hunt is depicted on the left of the road and only the huntsman is with his hounds” (ibid, p. 109). Upon seeing the finished picture in Edwards’ studio, Jack Gilbey was pleased with the result as he thought “much more of the landscape was thus made visible!...White Roding, with its cold grey sky, its wide expanse of gently undulating fields of brown plough…gives a faithful reproduction of a typical part of Essex hunting country…” (ibid, pp. 110-111).It is fascinating that Lionel Edwards should have done a preliminary study for this picture with snow on the ground (see subsequent lot) which he clearly chose not to depict in this finished work. We are grateful to Simon Marriage, the Chairman of the Essex Hunt, for his assistance with this catalogue entry.Framed 60 x 84.5cm
