1018 FINE GEORGE II CARVED MAHOGANY LIBRARY ARMCHAIR CIRCA 1755 the arched back and serpentine seat flanked by outscrolling arms with foliate and shell carved terminals, over a lattice carved apron centred by a ruffled shell and foliate scrolls, raised on shell and foliate carved cabriole legs ending in scrolled toes, in later green and yellow floral silk upholstery 68cm wide, 92cm high, 51cm deep

Note: The inspiration for this elegant armchair is undoubtedly taken from French fashion of the period as interpreted by a mid 18thcentury cabinet maker. Thomas Chippendale illustrated several examples of ‘French’ chairs in his ‘Gentleman and Cabinet Makers Director published in 1754, and other important cabinet makers of the St. Martin’s Lane Academy worked in this style.

The pattern of this chair, with its incised trellis ground, enjoyed considerable popularity in the mid 18th century, making identifying the specific maker a bit of a mystery. The chair is very similar to the well-known suite of seat furniture previously in the collection of Sir John Ward, K.C.V.O of Dudley House.

Helena Hayward, the furniture historian, in her 1964 Conoisseur article described the Dudley House suite saying “it would be no exaggeration to claim that no finer example of its period is now known to exist”. Several top London cabinet makers have been put forward as the likely makers of these chairs, including William Bradshaw of Greek Street, Soho, or his partner Paul Saunders who supplied related suites to Hagely Hall Worcestershire and Petworth, Sussex. Other potential candidates include James Whittle, Snr and Samuel Norman of St. Andrew’s Street Soho, as well as William Vile and John Cobb of St Martin’s Lane who supplied related cabriole legged chairs John Chute at the Vyne, Hampshire and the Hon. John Damer of Came House, Dorset. A pair of similar chairs sold Christie’s New York, 11 June 2010, lot 428.

Engraved glasses are much rarer due to the skill required to produce them.

These bold features combined with the fine detail of the scrolling foliate brass inlay provide the feminine balance to what can be viewed as a very masculine piece of furniture. Thomas Hope's 'Household Furniture & Interior Decoration' published in 1807, was a defined shift away from the somewhat feminine restraint of the late 18th century found in Sheraton's designs, and helped introduce a bold look for a new century.

(BRITISH 1825-1892) SIR JOHN SIMEON BART bronze bust, medium brown patina, signed ‘T WOOLNER 1872’ 73cm high Note: Thomas Woolner was a contemporary of Dante Gabriel Rossetti and was noted for being the only sculptor admitted the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. His series of busts and medallions of distinguished men of the day included writers, scientists and politicians, the most acclaimed being his bust of Alfred, Lord Tennyson for Trinity College. The success of his portrait medallion of Wordsworth is credited with restoring the art of medallion portraiture.

John Simeon Bart, 3rd Baronet, had a career as a naval officer before returning to the Isle of Wight in 1847 to serve as a Liberal Member of Parliament. In 1851 he resigned his seat after converting to Catholicism, feeling that to not do so would have been a disservice to those who had elected him when he was a member of the Anglican Church. He returned to Parliament in 1865. Bart was a good friend of Tennyson, and it is noted that it was the poet who encouraged Woolner to sculpt the bust.
