Lots 17 to 49 A Single Owner Collection of Antique Cutlery 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. For over forty years, he was a well known and popular figure on his stall at the famous Portobello Market. At the turn of this century he decided to compile an important and large collection of British cutlery which was taken on tour. It is now housed at Sheffield Museum as ‘The Bill Brown Collection’. He has had many hobbies over the years. As a young man he was a very keen road racer (cycling), and a keen birdwatcher, which probably started to assist his art work. His biggest hobby is probably growing bonsai trees and he is still the President of Bonsai Kai. He has won many medals for his bonsai including some at the Chelsea Flower Show.

149

The concept of art unions originated in Switzerland around 1800, subsequently spreading around Europe and to Australia, New Zealand and the United States. In Britain there were some thirty unions by 1850, in the cities of London, Liverpool, Edinburgh and Manchester amongst others. The institutions existed to promote and give greater access to works of art by distributing these to members via a lottery process. Later, in order to increase the number of works available, the unions began to commission their own prints, bronzes, medals and porcelain statuary, and this led to criticism that the art market was being flooded by inferior pieces. By the early 1900s, the unions had fallen out of favour, with the Art Union of London being wound up in 1912.

234 Lot 234 Circle of Adriaen Hanneman (Dutch, 1603-1671) PORTRAIT OF ALGERNON SIDNEY (1622-1683), HALF-LENGTH, IN A GREEN COAT Oil on panel 38 x 30cm £2,000 - 3,000 (plus 26.4% BP) Algernon Sidney was the 2nd son of the Earl of Leicester. In childhood, he was educated at home in Penshurst, Kent and also travelled abroad with his father. He saw military service in Ireland and, having declared for the Parliamentary side, received grievous wounds at Marston Moor. A long and varied political career followed and he was an active and diligent member of parliament, taking a particular interest in foreign affairs. In January 1649, in his absence and against his wishes, he was appointed as one of the commissioners at the trial of Charles I. He was opposed to the execution of the king and played no part in the proceedings, retiring to Penshurst until the sentence was passed. When the restoration of Charles II took place, Sidney was on a diplomatic mission in Sweden, where he remained in exile, more than once trying to arrange an invasion of England. Several attempts were made to assassinate him, but he finally returned to England in 1677, where he again tried to stand for parliament. Suspected of being involved in the Rye House Plot, he was convicted of high treason and executed on 7 December 1683. His important work, ‘Discourses Concerning Government’, was published posthumously in 1698, in which he opposes the Divine Right of Kings and suggests ideas on the rights of citizens to abolish a corrupt government. It has been suggested that its theories were the starting point of the American Revolution.

Lot 243 George Dawe RA (1781-1829) CYMBELINE, KING OF THE SOUTH-EAST OF ENGLAND Signed with monogram(?), oil on canvas 204 x 106cm £15,000-20,000 (plus 26.4% BP) The painting is to be included in the forthcoming catalogue raisonné of the artist’s work by Galina Andreeva of the State Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow. Dawe was christened George after his godfather, the artist George Morland, and was trained as an engraver by his father Philip, who had worked with Hogarth. Accomplished as he was in this discipline, his ambition was to paint and this led him to enrol in 1794 as a student at the Royal Academy of Arts. He became an associate member in 1809 and an Academician in 1814. He established a reputation in his early career for historical subjects, which at this time were still an important measure of an artist’s abilities, but his desire both for financial success and for recognition in high society drove him increasingly to portrait painting. The Duke of Kent was prominent among his royal patrons, and took him on a tour of Europe where he was commissioned to paint portraits of numerous military and diplomatic staff, among them the Duke of Wellington. His work came to the attention of Tsar Alexander of Russia, which resulted in the commissioning of over 300 military portraits following the successful campaign against Napoleon. Dawe was in St Petersburg from 1822 to 1828, in which year he became First Portrait Painter of the Imperial Court. Although he enjoyed considerable renown in England during his lifetime, his work remains better-known in Russia and his reputation there more enduring. He was a conscientious student at the Academy, where he supplemented life drawing classes by attending lectures in anatomy. His knowledge of the classics was limited, presumably because his general education had been curtailed, but one of his early subject pictures, ‘Achilles frantic for the loss of Patroclus’, was awarded the gold medal. Two others were exhibited at the Royal Academy, ‘Naomi and her Daughters’ in 1804 and ‘Andromache imploring Ulysses to spare the life of her son’ in 1810; the majority of his subsequent Academy exhibits, until 1818, were portraits. An 1851 publication, ‘Library of the Fine Arts’, records a picture, ‘Cymbeline’ in the following terms: ‘The next historical work he undertook (after Naomi) was from a scene in Cymbeline, which he submitted to the British Institution in 1809, and for which he received their highest premium of two hundred guineas’. This almost certainly refers to the painting now in the collection of the Tate, alternatively titled ‘Imogen found in the cave of Belarius’, but it is reasonable to conclude that our painting was produced at around the same time in view of the popularity of Shakespearean subjects and the subsequent direction that Dawe’s work took. Also in 1809, a premium of £50 was awarded to Dawe by the British Institution for a Scene from Cymbeline, which was possibly for this picture rather than the Tate composition. In 1819 he arrived in Saint Petersburg, ‘where he commenced his great and laborious undertaking of the grand National Military Gallery. Nine years were devoted to the completion of this wonderful undertaking, which he at length accomplished with almost unexampled industry and perseverance’. At the time of Dawe’s funeral, Sir Thomas Lawrence, President of the Royal Academy, said of his fellow artist, ‘Dawe had done much for English art, he had established its fame over the whole north of Europe, and connected it with a work which would not soon be forgotten’.

Nevertheless, intending buyers are reminded that while a full designation is our highest category or authenticity, no unqualified statement as to the authorship is made or intended. A full cataloguing does not necessarily imply a full warranty. Attibuted to David Cox in our opinion a work of the period of the artist which may be in whole or in part the work of the artist.

Bears/with signature, inscription, date in our opinion the signature/inscription/date are not by the hand of the named artist.

The addition of a question mark (?) after any of the above cataloguing terms indicates Circle of David Cox in our opinion a work from the period of the artist and showing his an element of doubt. influence. A work catalogued as ‘School’ accompanied by the name of a place or country and a date means that in our opinion the Follower of David Cox work was executed at that time and in the location, eg.

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

4%

From €50,000.01 to €200,000

3%

From €200,000.01 to €350,000

1%

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.

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

The Terms of Consignment and Terms of Sale are available at our saleroom on request. Please read these Terms of Sale carefully.
