THE BILL BROWN COLLECTION OF ANTIQUE CUTLERY 39-59 Bill Brown is a renowned collector of antique cutlery, something he has done for more than sixty years. Bill grew up as the second of nine children in Greenwich, and remained in London through the war years as he needed to work. After the war, he trained at Camberwell School of Art as a graphic designer. He worked in London for Harrison & Sons as a designer of postage stamps and it was during this time that he purchased his first items of cutlery, a Dutch knife and fork travelling set of c.1720. This purchase set off, what can only be described as, an obsession, not only to collect cutlery, but to discover everything there is to know about the subject. Sworders are pleased to offer a further selection of pieces from his vast collection.

241-272 INDIAN WORKS OF ART AND FURNITURE

Provenance: In the possession of an East Anglian collector, probably in or near Bury St. Edmunds, before 1846. A handwritten letter from R E Lofft dated 18th July 1846 describing the painting and giving interpretations of the inscription is pasted to the reverse of the frame. This is an important and rare painting of a Mughal prince seated with his consort in a palace chamber. There is a later inscription in the lower border describing the scene as ‘a picture of Shah Jahan in the time of youth…’ and naming the artist as Govardhan, one of the leading Mughal royal painters of the first half of the seventeenth century. This attribution is apparently confirmed by a short inscription at the lower left of the painted area which reads ‘…dhan’ - the second half of the name Govardhan. It is not clear why only the final letters of the name survive in this inscription, but it may simply be due to localised loss of pigment and subsequent retouching, of which there is evidence at the lower left corner. The style of the painting is very close to Govardhan’s, in particular the subdued, brownish palette, the precisely drawn facial features of the two figures, the romance and palpable intimacy of the scene, and the candid gaze that the princess directs outwards towards the viewer. There are several works signed by or attributed to Govardhan that provide comparisons, of which the following are the most relevant: a scene of a prince (possibly Parviz) and his consort on a terrace, a scene of Jahangir celebrating Holi in the women’s quarters, and a scene of a gathering of princes in a garden (all three in the Chester Beatty Library, Dublin, see E Wright, Muraqqa’, Imperial Mughal albums from the Chester Beatty Library, Alexandria VA, 2008, nos. 39, 41, 44, pp. 302-303, 310-311, 322-323); two ladies on a daybed (Seitz Collection, see J Seyller, ‘Mughal and Deccani Paintings’, Zurich, 2010, no. 11, p. 55); a prince and consort (probably Jahangir and Nur Jahan) embracing on a terrace (Los Angeles County Museum of Art, see P Pal, ‘Indian Painting’, Los Angeles, 1993, no.71, pp. 259-261); a portrait of Jabha (see J Seyller, ‘Govardhan’, in Beach, Fischer and Goswamy, ‘Masters of Indian Painting 1100-1650’, Artibus Asiae Suppl. 48-1, Zurich, 2011, p. 369, fig. 13). In terms of the general style and subject matter, there are several further works of the 1630s and 1640s that relate to the present painting, including a scene of Jahangir with Sultan Khurram and Nur Jahan (Freer Gallery of Art, Washington DC., see M Beach, ‘The Imperial Image, Paintings for the Mughal Court’, Washington, 2012, no. 35, pp. 162-3); a series of illustrations in a manuscript of the Khamsa of Nizami of c.1640 (Khalili Collection, London, see L. Leach, ‘Paintings from India’, London, 1998, no. 30, pp. 84, 100-101, 104); a scene of royal lovers on a terrace (see S C Welch, ‘Imperial Mughal Painting’, London, 1978, pl. 35, pp. 108-109). The painter Govardhan, one of the greatest imperial artists of the Mughal period, was son of the royal artist Bhawani Das and was born at court. He began work in the royal atelier at the end of Akbar’s reign in the last years of the sixteenth century and continued through Jahangir’s reign and most of Shah Jahan’s, until about 1645. His mature works show a strong interest in portraiture and a penetrating psychological insight. His favourite themes were scenes of holy men and intimate scenes of princes and their consorts, such as the present work. For further discussion of his style and illustrations of his work see M Beach, ‘The Grand Mogul: Imperial Painting in India, 1600-1660’, Williamstown MA, 1978, pp.118-125; M Beach in Das et al., ‘Mughal Masters: Further Studies’, Marg, Mumbai, 1998, pp.134-145; L. Leach, ‘Mughal and Other Indian Paintings from the Chester Beatty Library’, Dublin, 1995, vol. II, pp. 1103-1104; A. Okada, ‘Indian Miniatures of the Mughal Court’, New York, 1992, pp. 185-205; J Seyller in Beach, Fischer and Goswamy 2011, pp. 357-374. Shah Jahan, Mughal emperor from 1628 to 1658, was a great patron of the arts. His most famous commission was the Taj Mahal, built to house the tomb of his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal, who died in 1631, but his reign also produced a flowering of other arts such as painting, textiles and jewellery. The lack of facial hair on the male figure in the present work indicates an age of perhaps fourteen to sixteen years. If the figure does indeed represent Shah Jahan, who was born in 1592, the scene may represent his engagement to Mumtaz Mahal (Arjumand Banu Begam) which occurred in 1607-8 when he was fifteen (they were married five years later in 1612). The style of the painting indicates a date of production of about 1630 to 1640, and it is conceivable that this painting was produced for Shah Jahan in the aftermath of Mumtaz Mahal’s death in 1631 as a retrospective celebration of their loving union. The hexagonal dais on which the royal couple sit in the present work is unusual, as is the shape of the carpet surrounding it, but it is interesting to note a Mughal carpet fragment of c.1650 of similar shape in the Cincinnati Art Museum (see D Walker, ‘Flowers Underfoot, Indian Carpets of the Mughal era’, New York, 1997, figs. 101-103, pp. 104-105). The rectangular carpet in the background of the chamber in this painting can be compared to several other mid-seventeenth century Mughal carpets (ibid, figs. 104, 111-114). The provenance of this work is important and highly interesting. A letter written in a flowing early nineteenth century English hand is pasted to the back of the frame. The letter is from Robert Emlyn Lofft to an acquaintance of the owner of the painting and is dated 18th July 1846. In it he describes the painting and gives his interpretation of the inscription in the lower border, as well as the opinion of H H Wilson, a prominent Sanskrit scholar and the librarian at East India House in London. Frustratingly, what is not apparent is to whom the letter is written, nor who the owner was in 1846 - the letter is addressed simply ‘Sir…’. The final sentence of the letter: ‘Hoping that these explanations may be of use to the owner of the picture, who I believe is desirous to dispose of it’ indicates that it may have changed hands soon after 1846.

INDIAN WORKS OF ART AND FURNITURE 241-272

The transcription on the reverse reads: Troston near Ixworth 18th July 1846 Sir, I have the pleasure to send you a copy of a note from the Librarian at the East India House to whom I sent a copy of the inscription on the picture I saw at your house. Library E I House [East India House] 17 July Sir The inscription on your picture signifies ‘The Portrait of Shahjehan in the time of his youth, the work (or painting) of the painter Goverdhan.’ The last word is the name of the Hindu Artist. Yours truly, H. H. Wilson My interpretation was ‘Portrait of Shahjehan in the world of youth, the work of Hour Dehan.’ The Persian word which interpreted literally world, Mr Wilson has rendered by the word time by a freer translation, and the name of the Hindu artist he has written - Goverdham - I do not doubt more correctly he being a Hindu scholar and my knowledge being confined to Persian. This is all the difference in our translations. Shahjehan was one of the Moghul Emperors of Hindostan and reigned about the middle of the 17th century. By his order was built the splendid mausoleum, called the Tah-mehal, near Agra, for the sepulchre of his favourite Queen. It is considered one of the wonders of the world, but whether the lady in the Picture is intended for that Queen, there is nothing in the inscription to denote. I consider the picture to be a good one of the kind. It may be of the date of that Emperor or of not much more recent date. Hoping that these explanations may be of use to the owner of the picture, who I believe is desirous to dispose of it. I am Sir, Yours truly, R E Lofft

Robert Emlyn Lofft (1782-1847) was born at Troston Hall near Bury St. Edmunds in Suffolk. He joined the Bengal Army in 1803 and transferred to the Native Infantry in 1806. He served as an interpreter, Quartermaster, instructor and Brevet Captain and retired in 1820. He collected Arabic and Persian manuscripts, and after his death several were donated by his son to Cambridge University Library. Horace Hayman Wilson (1786-1860) was one of the most prominent early scholars on Indian language and literature. He went to India with the East India Company in 1808 having studied medicine in London and was appointed Secretary to the Asiatic Society of Bengal in 1811, Boden professor of Sanskrit at Oxford in 1832 and librarian to the East India Company in 1836. In 1813 he published the first English translation of the Sanskrit text of Kalidasa’s Meghaduta, and in 1819 he completed an influential Sanskrit-English dictionary. He published many further translations from Sanskrit as well as works on history, Indian medicine and catalogues of Oriental manuscripts. We are grateful to Marcus Fraser for writing this catalogue entry.

ARTIST’S RESALE RIGHT (ARR) What is Artist’s Resale Right? Following a European Directive in 2006, the Artist’s Resale Right entitles creators of original works of art to a royalty each time their work is resold, with the involvement of an auction house, for 1,000 Euros or more. This right covers sales of work by living artists and also the beneficiaries and heirs of artists deceased within the last 70 years of the sale. How are resale royalties calculated? The artist’s royalty depends on the hammer price (sale price without any VAT or Buyer’s Premium). The higher the sale price of the artwork, the lower the overall royalty rate. The royalty is worked out according to a sliding scale from 4% to 0.25%. Hammer Price

Royalty

From 0 to €50,000

From €50,000.01 to €200,000

From €200,000.01 to €350,000

From €350,000.01 to €500,000

0.5%

Exceeding €500,000

0.25%

What is the qualifying threshold? An artwork must sell for more than €1,000 to qualify for a royalty. The law defines the price threshold in Euros and, because the exchange rate between the two currencies changes daily, the equivalent in Pounds Sterling must be worked out according to the exchange rate on the date the artwork was sold.

154

What nationality must an artist be to qualify? The Artist’s Resale Right applies to the sale of artworks in the European Economic Area (EEA). The following countries are in the EEA: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovak Republic, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom. Artists who are nationals of these countries are therefore generally eligible to receive resale royalties. The nationality criteria only applies to the artist and not to the beneficiaries or heirs. Are all sales of artwork covered? The Artist’s Resale Right does not apply to all sales of artworks. A royalty is only due if the following conditions are met:  the artwork is a copyright protected work of graphic or plastic art;  it is sold for more than €1000;  it is sold in the secondary market with the involvement of an art market professional (e.g. auction house);  and it is sold in the UK or another country in the European Economic Area (EEA). This royalty, where applicable, will be charged to the purchaser. It is exempt of VAT.

INFORMATION FOR BUYERS Introduction The following notes are intended to assist bidders and buyers, particularly those that are inexperienced or new to our salerooms. All of our auctions are governed by our Conditions of Business incorporating the Terms of Consignment (primarily applicable to sellers), the Terms of Sale (primarily applicable to bidders and buyers) and any notices that are displayed in our salerooms or announced by the auctioneer at the auction. Our Conditions of Business are available for inspection at our salerooms and the Terms of Sale are printed in the back of our auction catalogues. Our staff will be happy to help you if there is anything in our Conditions of Business that you do not fully understand. Please make sure that you read our Terms of Sale set out in this catalogue or on our website carefully before bidding in the auction. If your bid is successful, you will be obliged to comply with our Terms of Sale. Methods of Payment Lots must be paid for before they are collected. For those attending the auction we ask that lots are paid for on the day of the sale. Methods by which we accept payment are detailed on our web site, including online payment upon receipt of your invoice, and these should be paid by 5pm on the Friday following the sale. We accept cash to an upper limit of 15,000 euros equivalent. Usually any cheques will need to be cleared before you can take the goods away. Payments by credit card are subject to a charge of 2% plus VAT. Collection and storage All lots should be paid for and collected by 5pm on the Friday following the sale. Commission bidders should check the success of their bids and arrange payment and collection within this time. Please note what the Terms of Sale say about collection and storage. Items not removed by 5pm on Friday may be removed at the purchaser’s expense and a storage charge of £1 per day may be charged. Dispatch We are rarely able to pack and dispatch purchases. A choice of shippers is detailed on our web site. Agency As auctioneers we usually act on behalf of the seller whose identity, for reasons of confidentiality, is not normally disclosed. If you buy at auction your contract for the goods is with the seller, not with us as auctioneer. Estimates Estimates are designed to help you gauge what sort of sum might be involved for the purchase of a particular lot. Estimates may change and should not be thought of as the sale price. The lower estimate may represent the reserve price (the minimum price for which a lot may be sold) and will not be below the reserve price. Estimates do not include the buyer’s premium or VAT (where chargeable). Estimates are prepared some time before the auction and may be altered by a saleroom notice or announcement by the auctioneer before the auction of the lot. They are not definitive.

b. if there is a prohibition on importing goods of that character e.g. because the goods contain prohibited materials such as ivory. Bidding Bidders will be required to register with us before the auction starts. We reserve the right to impose a deadline prior to the auction by which you must register or by which we must receive a commission bid. If you wish to bid on high value lots this deadline may be several days before the auction in order to allow us sufficient time to carry out the necessary checks. Lots will be invoiced to the name and address on the registration form. You will need to provide us with proof of your identity in a form acceptable to us and such other information as we may require. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for telephone or online bidding. Please note that we may refuse to register you if you do not provide us with all the information and documentation that we ask for or at our discretion. Commission bidding You may leave commission bids with us indicating the maximum amount to be bid against a lot (excluding the buyers’ premium and/or any applicable VAT). We will execute commission bids as cheaply as possible having regard to the reserve (if any) and competing bids. If two buyers submit identical commission bids we may prefer the first bid received (where this can be reasonably ascertained). We recommend leaving commission bids online via our website, though please contact us about leaving bids by telephone or fax/email. All absentee bids should be received at least 30 minutes before the auction commences; we cannot guarantee to execute commission bids received after this time. Telephone Bidding If you are unable to come to the auction it may be possible to bid on the telephone for higher value lots. Please note that this service is for lots with an estimate of £500 or more. The number of lines is limited so we would urge serious telephone bidding only and ask that you be prepared to bid over the top estimate. It is advisable to leave a maximum covering bid in case we are not able to contact you by telephone. All lines must be booked and confirmed in writing before the day of the auction and preferably some time in advance. Telephone bidding involves many variables and whilst we take every care to ensure the smooth operation of this service, we cannot be held liable if your bids are missed for any reason. Online Bidding Any lots purchased via a live online bidding service will be subject to an additional commission charge on the hammer price payable by the bidder, in accordance with the rates specified by the online service. These charges are 3% plus VAT and will be payable to us on top of the Hammer Price and our buyers commission.

IMPORTANT NOTICES

Buyer’s Premium The Terms of Sale oblige you to pay a buyer’s premium at 22% on the hammer price of each lot purchased, except for our Fine Wine and Port auctions when it is 15%. In addition, VAT is charged on these premiums (see below).

Removal of lots ALL lots are to be removed from the premises by 5.00pm at the latest on the Friday following each sale. Sworders retain the right to remove lots remaining after this time into safe storage, for which a charge will be made.

VAT Items in our catalogue may be marked with a dagger † or double dagger ‡, which indicates that VAT is payable by the buyer on the hammer price and the buyer’s premium at either the standard rate (currently 20%) or a reduced rate (currently 5%), depending upon the legal requirements relating to that lot.

Electrical Goods All electrical goods offered in this sale have either been tested and certified safe or unsafe by an appropriately qualified electrician. All electrical goods certified safe mst be re-commissioned by an appropriately qualified electrician and we recommend those certified safe are similarly re-commissioned.

Lots which do not have either of the above symbols have no VAT payable on the hammer price. This is because such lots are sold using the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme. The VAT included within the premium is not recoverable as input tax. Inspection of goods by the buyer As we act on behalf of the seller, we are dependent on information provided by the seller about their goods. We may inspect lots and will act reasonably in taking a general view about them. However, we are normally unable to carry out detailed examinations of lots to check their condition in the way a buyer would do. You will have ample opportunity to inspect the goods. You must inspect and investigate lots that you might wish to bid for. Please note carefully the exclusion of liability for the condition of lots set out in the Terms of Sale at clause 12.4.

Post 1950 Upholstered Furniture All items of furniture included in this sale are offered for sale as works of art. The items may not comply with the Furniture and Furnishings (Fire) Safety Regulations 1988 and for this reason, they should not be used in a private dwelling. Furniture made of Brazilian Rosewood (Dalbergia Negra) To comply with CITES Regulations on Post-1947 furniture made of Brazilian Rosewood, all post-war rosewood furniture items have Article 10 certificates.

Condition Reports We may be able to assist buyers unable to view by emailing a condition report, but these are based solely on our own opinion and are for guidance only and no responsibility is accepted for their accuracy. Intending buyers are strongly encouraged to view. Condition reports cannot be prepared on the day of the sale.

If you are purchasing rosewood furniture for commercial purposes and not solely for your own use, CITES regulations require you to obtain your own certificate. You would need to contact the Animal Health and Veterinary Laboratories Agency (‘AHVLA’) and, as part of the process of obtaining your document, it is a requirement that you have seen sight of the Sworders’ certificate or are aware of its reference number.

Electrical goods These are sold as “antiques” only. If you buy electrical goods for use you must ask a qualified electrician to check them for compliance with safety regulations before you use them.

It is therefore the responsibility of commercial buyers to ensure that they obtain a copy of the appropriate certificate, or the certificate reference number, after purchase from Sworders Fine Art Auctioneers. Items are marked with this sign §.

Export of goods If you intend to export goods you must find out: a. whether an export licence is needed; and

TERMS OF SALE Both the sale of goods at our auctions and your relationship with us are governed by the Terms of Consignment (primarily applicable to sellers) the Terms of Sale (primarily applicable to bidders and buyers) and any notices displayed in the saleroom or announced by us at the auction (collectively, the “Conditions of Business”). The Terms of Consignment and Terms of Sale are available at our saleroom on request. Please read these Terms of Sale carefully. Please note that if you register to bid and/or bid at auction this signifies that you agree to and will comply with these Terms of Sale. Please note that these Terms of Sale relate to auctions held at our premises only. We have separate terms for online only auctions. 1.
