The Providence: an exceptionally rare Beilby enamelled colour twist wine glass, dated 1767The round funnel bowl painted in polychrome with a three-masted ship in opaque white, the flags and banners picked out in pale red, inscribed 'the Providence' above, the reverse inscribed 'JO:N ELLIOT 1767', the unusual stem with an opaque-white corkscrew edged in iron-red and translucent cobalt-blue, alternating with opaque canary-yellow and translucent jade-green spiral threads, over a conical foot, 15.9cm highFootnotes:ProvenanceSotheby's, 2 July 1985, lot 692With Maureen ThompsonDurrington CollectionLiteratureRoger Dodsworth, The Durrington Collection (2006), no.35ExhibitedBroadfield House Glass Museum, 'Majesty & Rebellion', 1999, catalogue no.41This remarkable glass is one of only two recorded. The other, formerly in the Hamilton Clements Collection, was sold by Bonhams as part of the A C Hubbard Jr Collection on 30 November 2011, lot 135 and is illustrated by Ward Lloyd, A Wine Lover's Glasses (2000), pp.93-4, pls.130-1 and dustjacket. They are exceptional not only because the combination of red, yellow, blue and green twists in the stem is highly unusual, the yellow thread being particularly rare, but also because they also represent the only enamelled colour twist wine glasses known. A set of Beilby enamelled cordial glasses would seem to be the only other colour twist drinking glasses decorated by the Beilby workshop, see Lot 46 in this sale.These ship glasses are traditionally referred to as 'Privateer' glasses, but as the portholes on the ship are closed it may have instead been a trading vessel. Two other Beilby enamelled objects painted with ships are known, including The Margaret and Winneford Punchbowl in the Laing Art Gallery, see James Rush, The Ingenious Beilbys (1973, pp.130-1, figs.74-6. The other is the so-called Whitehaven Goblet bearing the Royal arms of George III, see the footnote to Lot 45 in this sale.It has not yet been possible to confidently trace the ship or captain commemorated on this glass as there are several ships by this name. In a letter to Philip Stephens dated 30 September 1763, Admiral Rodney refers to an armed brig called Providence which had been newly hired into His Majesty's service and placed under the command of Mr Low, see David Syrett, The Rodney Papers, Vol.2 (2007), pp.19-20. In 1766 Lloyd's List records a ship called Providence, captained by Elliot, which arrived into Portsmouth from Georgia on 30 May and departed for Rotterdam on 20 June which is perhaps that mentioned on this glass. A sloop of 50 tons by the name of Providence was built at Berwick upon Tweed in 1767, owned by the master mariner Robert Kirkwood of Sunderland, and operated as a Dublin coaster, but it is unclear who commanded it.Interestingly, there are two engraved glasses with bucket bowls in the collection of the National Maritime Museum, Greenwich, commemorating both the same captain and ship. One is a plain-stemmed goblet inscribed 'SUCCESS TO THE PROVIDENCE AND JON ELLIOT.' (inv. no.GGG0200) and the other an opaque twist wine glass inscribed 'Success to the Providence & JON ELLIOTT' (inv. no.GGG0196); the latter would appear to be that from the Sir Hugh Dawson Collection sold by Sotheby's on 21 October 1960, lot 40 and illustrated and discussed by E B Haynes, 'A Naval Array: Part II', Apollo (May 1940), p.125, fig.10. That all of these glasses are different suggests that they may have been commissioned at different times and that both the ship and captain were of some importance. There is some discrepancy in the spelling of the name on these glasses, either as Elliott or Elliot, and it is tempting to attribute them to Admiral John Elliot (1732-1808), the highly distinguished Scottish officer of the Royal Navy. However, Elliot seems only to have commanded various Plymouth guardships between 1763 and 1771 and none by the name of Providence. Haynes suggests that 1767 may instead be a later commemorative date.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ** VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
