The estate was slowly downgraded and only the ruins of a few low arches of the cloisters were left by 1794. William Turner of Oxford depicted these ruined arches in the tranquil and picturesque setting on the edge of the Cotswolds surrounded by ancient trees.

He travelled from Thessaloniki to Albania and then to the coast of Epirus. In his extensive journals and sketches from around the date of the present work we know that Lear was on the southern Albanian coast in the region known today as Himara and which Lear referred to as Cimara in October 1848. He notes in his journal, After drawing some of the innumerable cousins of the house of Kasnétzi – each of them a picture (though from their sense of mourning I could not get sketches of any of the females) – I went out, and drew Vunó from the north, until sunset, surrounded by groups of Khimáriotes, a naturally well-behaved set of people, whose conversation was intelligent and various, and whose interest in my drawing reminded me of Abruzzi and Calabria. £400-£600

TWO WORKS BY JOHN CONSTABLE R.A. (BRITISH 1776-1837) From the collection of R.B. BECKETT (1891-1970)
Ronald Brymer Beckett (1891-1970) Civil Servant and Art Historian Ronald Brymer (R.B.) Beckett (1891-1970) was born in Yorkshire, and studied at Lincoln College, Oxford. After leaving university he joined the Civil Service where he was posted to India, returning in 1917 to study at Middle Temple. He returned again to India the following year, where he served as city magistrate of Amritsar before being transferred to other government positions, eventually retiring and returning to England for good in 1946. Settling in London, Beckett attended University College, where he studied psychology and philosophy and pursued his interest in art, using his Civil Service pension to collect drawings and paintings by English artists. He published catalogues of the works of William Hogarth (1949) and Peter Lely (1951) and curated an exhibition of the work of William Blake and William Hogarth at the Tate Gallery. In 1956 he was instrumental in mounting and curating the exhibition John Constable 1776-1837, held at Manchester City Art Gallery. He loaned works from his own collection, including present lot 88, thought to be of Abram Constable, and researched and wrote the catalogue. It was his extensive research into the life and work of John Constable from the hundreds of surviving letters, which he devoted many years to, that was his most significant contribution to scholarship on the painter. Between 1962 and his death in 1970 he edited seven volumes of the Correspondence of John Constable published by the Suffolk Records Society, as well as Constable and the Fishers: the Record of a Friendship (1952). The Times Literary Supplement wrote that, No one, after reading a single volume, will come without a fresher and stronger vision to Constable’s painting. Beckett died on December 1, 1970. His daughter Elisabeth described him as, Six feet tall, fair-skinned with red hair, Beckett was always an elegant figure with a quietly charming manner.

87 JOHN CONSTABLE RA (BRITISH 1776-1837) Portrait study, thought to be Maria Constable née Bicknell (1788-1828) Pencil on unwatermarked part sheet of writing paper circa early-mid 1820s 17.5 x 10.8cm (6 7/8 x 4 1/4in) Provenance: R.B. Beckett (1891-1970); thence by descent to the present owner The present drawing is thought to be a portrait of Maria Elizabeth Bicknell (1788-1828) who was the love of Constable’s life. She was the daughter of Charles Bicknell, Solicitor to the Admiralty, and his second wife, Maria Elizabeth (née Rhudde). According to Constable’s biographer C.R. Leslie, the artist met his future wife in 1800 when she was staying with her maternal grandfather Dr Rhudde at East Bergholt rectory (Leslie, ed. J. Mayne, Memoirs of the Life of John Constable, London 1951, p.25). In 1809 Constable wrote in a letter of his love for Maria and certainly by this date a close attachment existed, at least on Constable’s side; however, their marriage was delayed until 1816, largely because Maria’s family, and especially Dr Rhudde, disapproved of their association. In February 1816 Constable wrote to Maria: How unfortunate that I should have [been the] cause of bringing all into [the] situation I did with the wretched Doctor - but let us for ever dismiss the grievous side of the subject ... I am happy in love - an affection exceeding a thousand times my deserts, which has continued so many years, and is yet undiminished ... Never will I marry in this world if I marry not you. Truly can I say that for the seven years since I avowed my love for you, I have never done anything that I have considered could have made you any way uncomfortable... (R.B. Beckett, ed., John Constable’s Correspondence, vol. II, Ipswich, 1964, p.179). Portraiture, like letter writing, played an important part in the romance between Constable and Maria as they were often parted for long periods. They were finally married on 2 October 1816 at St Martin-in-the-Fields, London. They had seven children. Maria, who suffered from poor health, died of tuberculosis in 1828. In a letter to his brother Golding of 19 December 1828, Constable wrote, I shall never feel again as I have felt, the face of the World is totally changed to me (Leslie, ed. A. Shirley, Memoirs of the Life of John Constable, R.A., London, 1937, p. 234). It is not certain when this sensitive pencil drawing was executed. The unwatermarked writing paper probably dates from the early-mid 1820’s, and it has been suggested that this is a portrait of Maria drawn late in her life when she was unwell. Tate Britain has another pencil drawing thought to be a portrait of Maria which may have been drawn at the time of Constable’s declaration of his love to her in 1809. Also in Tate Britain are two oils: a portrait of Maria made shortly after the couple were engaged, and the group portrait of Maria Constable with two of her children, painted circa 1820. An unfinished oil of Maria with three of her children is still in the Constable family collection, as is a drawing thought to show her in the last years of her life.

88 JOHN CONSTABLE RA (BRITISH 1776-1837) Portrait of a Gentleman, traditionally believed to be Abram Constable of Wormingford Oil on canvas 75 x 63.5cm (29 1/2 x 25in) Provenance: R.B. Beckett (1891-1970), by 1956; thence by descent to the present owner Exhibited: Manchester, City Art Gallery, John Constable 1776-1837, 1956, no. 11 (loaned by R.B. Beckett) Literature: Robert Hoozee, L'opera completa di Constable, Milano, 1979, cat. no. 49 Graham Reynolds, The Early Paintings and Drawings of John Constable, Yale, 1996, no. 09.83, pl. 814, illustrated Painted circa 1809, the sitter in the present portrait has traditionally been identified as Constable’s uncle, Abram Constable (1742-1812), who lived at Wormingford, some ten miles from East Bergholt on the far side of Dedham Vale. R.B. Beckett, identified the sitter as Abram Constable in his catalogue entry for the 1956 exhibition at Manchester City Art Gallery. However, a photograph of the painting in the R.B. Beckett archive in the The Huntington Library Art Collections, California is annotated on the reverse with both the name of his uncle Abram and that of his cousin Abram Garrad (1766-1801). In his 1979 catalogue Robert Hoozee titled the work (?)Abram Constable. But Graham Reynolds concurred with Beckett in his scholarly catalogue raisonné of Constable’s early paintings and drawings published in 1996 titling the work Abram Constable of Wormingford. Constable was a naturally private person with a small but intimate social circle of friends and kept a very close relationship with his family. Although Constable is best known for his landscapes he painted almost one hundred portraits during his life. He preferred to paint members of his family or close friends whom he chose to paint, the likenesses of which are the most successful. If he painted a portrait he put a great deal of significance and feeling into the character of the sitter. This comes through very much in his most intimate portraits where the relationship between artist and sitter can be felt. This especially fine portrait of his uncle Abram exudes enormous character. Not at all contrived or formal, there is an honesty and directness that gives the sitter great immediacy and presence. It is believed to date from circa 1809 before his marriage to Maria Bicknell. At this time there was not the financial pressure to support his family and he had time to explore and develop his character as an artist. We are grateful to Peter Bower for his assistance in researching this catalogue entry. We would also like to thank Anne Blecksmith, Reader Services, The Huntington Library, Art Collections and Botanical Gardens, San Marino, California, for her help with researching the documents in the R.B. Beckett archive. £30,000-£50,000

PROPERTY OF A GENTLEMAN 89 JOHN CONSTABLE RA (BRITISH 1776-1837) A River Landscape: A group of tall trees on the left, a bend of the river with willows on the far bank on the right, in the background a hill with a castle Pencil on laid writing paper bearing the watermark of a crown above the letters JC in a double diamond, of paper maker Joseph Coles c 18051815. 17.7 x 30cm (7 1/2 x 12 1/2in) Provenance: Gregory sale, Sotheby’s, 20 July 1949, lot 61; private collection UK This drawing was sold by Sotheby’s as part of their important sale of Dr H.A.C. Gregory Collection of John Constable July 1949. Gregory was renowned for his discernment, only having the best of Constable in his collection: the Preface to the Sotheby’s sale describes The Collection catalogued in the following pages forms probably the most important sale of Constable’s works that has ever taken place, including not only one of Constable’s great masterpieces but some twenty portraits and oil-sketches and some sixty watercolours and drawings. Reynolds records 28 works by Constable with an H.A.C. Gregory provenance, but these were only the works he had access to in the 1970s and onwards, some thirty or more years after the Gregory Sale. One suggestion for the subject matter of this drawing is that it is Framlingham Castle from slightly north of west, seen from across the Mere. Certainly the silhouette of the castle in the drawing shows great similarity to that of Framlingham Castle, is only thirty miles north of East Bergholt. Framlingham Castle was drawn by Constable on more than one occasion, but generally from closer to the castle, the first time being in 1800 and then again later in 1815. The paper was made by Joseph Coles at Lower Wookey Mill, Somerset. Coles ran the mill between 1788-1833. This watermark was in use from c.1805-1815. Watermarks from over 100 paper makers have been recorded amongst his drawings and letters as well as watermarks from 13 different stationers and paper merchants. Amongst these there are many examples of Constable working on a single example of a paper from a particular mill. John Constable used another paper from Joseph Coles for a drawing in 1806, A Figure on a Roadway, watermarked JOSEPH COLES / 1804. We are grateful to Peter Bower for his assistance in researching this catalogue entry. £6,000-£8,000

Robinson Esq by 1862 Exhibited: London, Old Watercolour Society, 1859 London, International Exhibition, 1862, no. 1211 The present work was greatly praised when it was first exhibited at the Old Watercolour Society in London in 1959. One reviewer commended it as the highlight of the exhibition. He described it glowingly as: The picture of highest intent noted Burton’s technical dexterity, and concluded: ...there is not another picture of the year which can assert stronger claim to the high dignity of art (Blackwood Magazine, December 1959, p. 141). The Times wrote: No early master, not Memling or Van Eyck, not Martin Schon, Cranach, or Holbein, ever painted an individual physiognomy more conscientiously than Mr Burton has painted his widow. The work’s origin and success stemmed from Burton’s regular travels through Europe, and in particular the time he spent in Germany. Whilst staying in Munich in 1844 he was engaged by Maximilien II, King of Bavaria to restore and make copies of works in the Royal Collections. Burton returned to Munich in 1851, living and working for Maximilien for the next seven years. He produced detailed watercolours inspired by the local people and the surrounding architecture, returning annually to exhibit in London. As well as the present work, German subjects included Peasantry in Franconia waiting for Confession and The Procession in Bamberg Cathedral. £6,000-£8,000 38

Gauci) in The English Lake District by James Baker Pyne published by Thomas Agnew & Sons, Manchester, 1853 A great lover of the Lake District, second only to Turner in his recording of the region’s natural beauty, Pyne selected the present work to be reproduced as one of 25 large hand-coloured lithographic plates for his book The English Lake District (fig.1). The lavish tome was the outcome of a series of paintings Agnews had commissioned from him in the late 1840s of which the present work is one. Grasmere from Loughrigg of 1848 was the first in the series. Other subjects included The Derwent River and Borrowdale, Bassenthwaite Lake and Coniston Water. The number 207 on the canvas is probably Pyne's own form of numbering of his works.

154 FRANS SODAR (BELGIAN 1827-1900) The Church of the Holy Sepulchre, Jerusalem; 12 interior views each: Oil on canvas, unframed each: 50 x 37cm (19 3/4 x 14 1/2in) (12) Provenance: Sotheby’s, London, The Travel Sale, October 12th 2000, lot 525 Born and raised in Dinant in Wallonia, Belgium, Sodar became an avid traveller. He spent nine months in the Madrid in 1858-59, travelled to Rome in 1862, and to Morocco and Algeria in 1865. Never resting long in one place, in 1884 he embarked on what would be a four year journey with his wife to the Holy Land. In Jerusalem he painted the sanctuaries of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, combining them into 12 views of mass in progress. As well as the set being of great artistic merit, they are also fascinating documents of the religious ritual and architecture of the Holy Sepulchre in the late nineteenth century. The present set includes the Chapel of Christ's Tomb in the west end of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the Chapel of St Helena, and the Chapel of the Finding of the Cross. Sodar also painted the fourteen Stations of the Cross, a series that proved extremely popular and found its way into many Italian churches and convents. A group of Sodar's works, presented to Pope Leo XIII (1810-1903) earned him the gold medal of Christian artists, with the congratulations and blessing of the pontiff. The Church of the Holy Sepulchre lies in the Christian Quarter in the Old City of Jerusalem. Emperor Constantine approved its construction in 326 A.D., ordering that the temple of Venus be demolished to make way for the its building. The first Church was approached by a flight of steps from the Cardo, the main street of Jerusalem. In the 12th century the Crusaders carried out general rebuilding, and since then the structure has frequently undergone repair, restoration, and remodelling. Most recently a Crusaders era high alter has been rediscovered. The present Church of the Holy Sepulchre dates mainly from 1810, and remains an important focus of pilgrimage to this day. £12,000-£18,000

158 158 GERMAN SCHOOL (19TH CENTURY) Salammbô and Matho Oil on canvas 108 x 106.5cm (42 1/2 x 42in.) The subject of the present work is thought to be taken from the story of Salammbô, the historical novel by Gustave Flaubert set in Carthage in the 3rd century BC. The present scene appears to depict the love making of Salammbô and the chief mercenary Matho that takes place in chapter 11. A scandalous success when the novel was published in 1862, the titillating story-line offered history painters a rich seem of new subject matter, with Salammbô's various exploits depicted by artists ranging from Auguste Rodin to Alfons Mucha. £1,500-£2,500 72

His senior by just 6 years, Delville taught at the School from 18991906. Appointed to the staff in 1903 as studio assistant under Delville’s tenure, Wilson went on to become Assistant Professor of Drawing and Painting, and then from 1932-1938 Head of Department. As well as the influence of Delville, who retained a life-long fascination with the Occult and expounded the importance of the aesthetic of the ideal, the work of his direct contemporaries also proved formative. His peers included The Four: James Herbert McNair, Frances and Margaret Macdonald and Charles Rennie Mackintosh who were instrumental in creating the now distinctive Glasgow Style. Other artists who shaped Wilson’s style included the so-called Glasgow Boys of a generation earlier led by James Guthrie (1859-1930) and John Lavery (1856-1941), and who via the naturalist landscapes of Jules Bastien-Lepage and the exoticism of James McNeil Whistler’s Japonism sowed the seeds of Modernism in and around the city. £2,000-£3,000 73

His plight has been explored by artists over the centuries with ever greater imagination, as in the present work. Provenance: Purchased by the present owner circa 1990 ÂŁ1,500-ÂŁ2,500

SEVEN WORKS BY WALTER LANGHAMMER FROM A LONDON COLLECTION (LOTS 165-170) Born in Graz, Austria, Langhammer studied at the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts where he was influenced by the vibrant palette and Expressionist technique of Oskar Kokoschka. With Hitler’s annexation of Austria he and his wife Käthe (née Urbach) travelled to Bombay. A former Indian pupil of Langhammer’s, Shirin Vimadala, had encouraged the painter to make the trip. But on their arrival the couple were arrested as enemy aliens and detained separately until 1941 when the British authorities concluded that neither posed a security threat. On their release Langhammer established a studio where he kept open house for promising young Indian painters including many who formed the Bombay Progressive Art Movement such as Ara, Raza, Husain, Souza and Raiba. Langhammer also encouraged the patronage of wealthy professionals to support such talents – doctors, lawyers and industrialists. Sayed Haider Raza recalled how Langhammer lent him his Bombay studio, and on his departure for Paris provided him with shoes and offered him his overcoat. Captivated by the bright Indian light, Langhammer travelled throughout the country to record the diversity of its people and its landscape. In the late 1940s he was commissioned by the Tata family to paint the Jamshedpur steel plant. During the three months he spent in the city he established the Jamshedpur School of Art, and the ground-breaking series of paintings that he produced of the plant celebrates the power of Indian industrial achievement following the country’s independence in 1947. Returning to Europe in the early 1960s, Langhammer settled in North London, where he met the Allens, who acquired the present works from him (lots 165 to 170)

169 Geoffrey and Anna Allen (1896-1965 & 1900-1977 respectively) experienced both hardship and success in their eventful lives. Born in Vienna, Geoffrey was commended for his exploits in the First World War, one of which included taking two Italian soldiers prisoner while he himself was severely wounded. He met Anna in the late 1920s and the couple married in 1931. Both Jewish (Anna was from a Polish speaking part of the Austro-Hungarian empire), in 1938 Geoffrey was sent to Dachau concentration camp, but was released as part of a goodwill gesture, and managed to reach England. First interned, he subsequently joined the Pioneer Corps, and saw service in Rennes, France before returning to Britain to be an army clerk and translator. Anna, meanwhile went in search of Geoffrey in Dachau, where she succeeded in entering the camp undetected to look for her husband, but unaware that he was no longer there. Through tenacity and good fortune she subsequently reached Britain, learnt English and held down a variety of jobs including as a van driver, in a grocery, as a nanny and as an accounts clerk. After the couple were reunited, and Geoffrey was demobbed in 1948 he became a successful businessman, travelling throughout Europe. Settling in North London among the Austrian-Jewish exiled community there, the Langhammers became family friends. Geoffrey and Anna commissioned portraits of themselves from Walter and acquired the present range of landscapes from him too.

FIVE WORKS BY HARALD MAHRENHOLZ (LOTS 179-183)
Harald Mahrenholz was from a cultured Jewish family. His maternal grandfather had been a cellist, his mother was a concert pianist, and his brother was a highly regarded portrait and fashion photographer. In his home city of Berlin Mahrenholz studied in the studio of the Expressionist painter Ludwig Meidner, and subsequently worked for the stage and film director Max Reinhardt. From Berlin he moved to Paris, where he came under the influence of the Fauve painter and society portraitist Kees Van Dongen, was introduced to Matisse and Picasso, and met Christian Dior. Dior, then a young co-director of the newly established Galerie Jacques Bonjean on rue de la Boétie, took up Mahrenholz’s work, exhibiting his paintings alongside others that he championed, from Leonor Fini, Salvador Dali and Joan Miró to neo-Romantics Eugène and Léonide Berman and Pavel Tchelitchew. Through Dior the painter was introduced to the Parisian intelligentsia and beau-monde amongst them Gertrude Stein and Coco Chanel. Mahrenholz moved to London in the late 1930s where he continued to paint, but also set up a haute couture salon on Curzon Street in Mayfair. His clients included Princess Margaret, Margot Fonteyn, Barbara Hutton, the Duchess of Argyll and Vivien Leigh. He was introduced to Daniel Wildenstein by fellow designers Elizabeth Arden and Coco Chanel. Wildenstein held a one-man show of Mahrenholz’s paintings at his New Bond Street gallery in 1947.
