The family firm of John Hardman & Co. was founded in 1838 by staunch Catholic John Hardman senior (1767-1844) who first entered the trade of button- and medal-making in Birmingham. His son, John Hardman junior (1811-1867), crossed paths with Augustus Welby Pugin in 1837 and they became close friends and business collaborators. Pugin began passing metalwork designs to Hardman, who soon diversified into stone- and woodcarving, leatherwork and textiles, all showing the influence of Pugin’s insistence on reviving the traditions and forms of medieval craftsmanship. By 1844 Pugin had persuaded Hardman to enter the new and challenging area of stained glass production, a decision which resulted in the firm becoming one of the world’s leading manufacturers of stained glass and ecclesiastical fittings. John Hardman’s nephew, John Hardman Powell (1827-1895) trained under Pugin. Powell eventually married Pugin’s daughter, Anne, and became chief designer for Hardman’s after Pugin’s death in 1852. Hardman’s continued to produce top-quality stained glass windows throughout the twentieth century, and the firm did not cease trading until 2008. (13) £400-600

Smith. When WWI broke out he went to France with the Royal Engineers and the Tank Corps, as an artist sketching the landscapes over which the army and its heavy vehicles would have to move. When the war ended, Martin was invited to join the Ordnance Survey which was struggling to capture the burgeoning market due to the proliferation of cheap pirated versions of OS originals. Martin’s first map cover designs appeared in 1919 and within a year the OS was reporting the highest map sales in its history. Martin continued to work for the OS until the outbreak of the Second World War, and in that time he helped make Ordnance Survey a household name; his cover designs show a bygone way of life and are much collected today.

Victor Bertin’, 44 x 34.3cm (17.25 x 13.5ins), framed Provenance: Shepherd Gallery, New York. Crawley and Asquith, London. Private collection, France. Exhibited: Plein-air painting in Europe 1780-1850, p. 66, no. 23 (illustrated), Shizuoka Prefectural Museum of Art, Tokyo, Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney & National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne, Australia 2004. Jean-Victor Bertin studied at the Academie Royale de Peinture from 1785 under the history painter Gabriel-Francois Doyen (1726-1806), and by 1788 he was working in the studio of Pierre-Henri de Valenciennes (1750-1819) who had returned from his studies in Rome in 1785. Bertin’s neo-classical Italianate manner clearly derives from Valenciennes. Bertin achieved success at the Paris Salons from 1796 onwards, receiving the prix d’encouragement in 1799, and later received commissions for work to decorate the Grand Trianon at Versailles and the Galerie de Diane at Fontaine Bleau. He continued to exhibit at the Salon until 1842, and had a wide influence on succeeding generations. His most famous pupil was Camille Jean-Baptiste Corot (1796-1875), who spent five years under his tutelage. The present work depicts the ancient aqueduct at Arcueil, a few kilometers south of Paris, which had been rebuilt between 1613 and 1624 on the foundations of the original Roman structure. The viewpoint accentuates the monumentality and archaic quality of the site. (1) £6000-8000

REGINALD JAMES LLOYD (1926-) Reginald James Lloyd was born in Hereford and at the age of two the family moved to Dawlish in South Devon. After army service, he attended Exeter School of Art for one term, where he was taught by the artist George Adamson. After this he struck out on his own, and gradually developed his style independently. His impressive output includes painting, printmaking, sculpture, stained glass and large scale architectural projects. His work relates to the landscape of the South West and its ancient standing stones and hill forts, such as Avebury, Silbury Hill, Stonehenge and Maiden Castle. His strong individual style bears comparison to British Neo-Romantic painting of the 1940s and 50s. Lloyd and his family moved to Bideford, Devon in 1956 (where he has lived ever since), and in the following year he was invited to exhibit his work at the Fifth Devon Festival, alongside the work of Piper, Hitchens, Epstein, Gaudier Brzeska, Rodin and Picasso. The poet Ted Hughes was a close friend from the early sixties and a regular visitor to Lloyd’s home in Bideford. They collaborated on a series of silk screen prints for Hughes’ Crow poems: King of Carrion, That Moment, Crows Last Stand, and Crow and the Birds, in 1970, and illustrated books of poetry including What is the Truth?, The Cat and the Cuckoo, The Mermaid’s Purse, and Earth Dances, all published between 1984 and 1995. Lloyd’s work with and for Ted Hughes forms an important part of the artist’s output.

Conditions of Sale and Business 7. Any representation or statement by the Auctioneer in any catalogue, brochure or advertisement of forthcoming sales as to authorship, attribution, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price is a statement of opinion only. Every person interested should exercise and rely on his own judgement as to such matters and neither the Auctioneer nor his servants or agents are responsible for the correctness of such opinions. No warranty whatsoever is given by the Auctioneer or the seller in respect of any lot and any express or implied warranties are hereby excluded.

1. The Seller warrants to the Auctioneer and the buyer that he is the true owner or is properly authorised to sell the property by the true owner and is able to transfer good and marketable title to the property free from any third party claims. 2. (a) The highest bidder to be the buyer. If during the auction the Auctioneer considers that a dispute has arisen he has absolute authority to settle it or re-offer the lot. The Auctioneer may at his sole discretion determine the advance of bidding or refuse a bid, divide any lot, combine any two or more lots or withdraw any lot without prior notice. (b) Where goods are bought at auction by a buyer who has entered into an agreement with another or others that the other or others (or some of them) shall abstain from bidding for the goods and the buyer or other party or one of the other parties is a dealer (as defined in the Auction Biddings Agreement Act 1927) the buyer warrants that the goods are bought bona fide on joint account.

8. (a) Notwithstanding any other terms of these conditions, if within fourteen days of the sale the Auctioneer has received from the buyer of any lot notice in writing that in his view the lot is a deliberate forgery and within fourteen days after such notification the buyer returns the same to the Auctioneer in the same condition as at the time of the sale and satisfies the Auctioneer that considered in the light of the entry in the catalogue the lot is a deliberate forgery then the sale of the lot will be rescinded and the purchase price of the same refunded. "A deliberate forgery" means a lot made with intention to deceive. (b) A buyer's claim under this condition shall be limited to any amount paid to the Auctioneer for the lot and for the purpose of this condition the buyer shall be the person to whom the original invoice was made out by the Auctioneer.

3. The buyer shall pay the price at which a lot is knocked down by the Auctioneer to the buyer (“the hammer price”) together with a premium of 19.5% of the hammer price. Where the lot is marked by an asterisk the premium will be subject to VAT at 23.40% which under the Auctioneer’s Margin Scheme will form part of the buyer’s premium on our invoice and will not be separately identified (the premium added to the hammer price will hereafter collectively be referred to as “the total sum due”). By making any bid the buyer acknowledges that his attention has been drawn to the fact that on the sale of any lot the Auctioneer will receive from the seller commission at its usual rates in addition to the said premium of 19.5% and assents to the Auctioneer receiving the said commission.

9. Lots may be removed during the sale after full settlement in accordance with 4(d) hereof. 10. All goods delivered to the Auctioneer's premises will be deemed to be delivered for sale by auction unless otherwise stated in writing and will be catalogued and sold at the Auctioneer's discretion and accepted by the Auctioneer subject to all these conditions. In the case of miscellaneous books, the Auctioneer reserves the right to extract and dispose of books that, in the opinion of the Auctioneer at his absolute discretion, have no saleable value and, therefore, might detract from the saleability of the rest of the lot and the Auctioneer shall incur no liability to the seller, in respect of the books disposed of. By delivering the goods to the Auctioneer for inclusion in his auction sales each seller acknowledges that he/she accepts and agrees to all the conditions.

4. (a) The buyer shall forthwith upon the purchase give in his name and permanent address and pay to the Auctioneer immediately after the conclusion of the auction the total sum due. (b) The buyer may be required to pay down during the course of the sale the whole or any part of the total sum due, and if he fails to do so after such request the lot or lots may at the Auctioneer's absolute discretion be put up again and resold immediately. (c) The buyer shall at his own expense take away any lot or lots purchased no later than five working days after the auction day. (d) The Auctioneer may at his own discretion agree credit terms with a buyer and extend the time limits for collection in special cases but otherwise payment shall be deemed to have been made only after the Auctioneer has received cash or a sterling banker’s draft or the buyer's cheque has been cleared.

11. (a) Unless otherwise instructed in writing all goods on the Auctioneer's premises and in their custody will be held insured against the risks of fire, burglary, water damage and accidental breakage or damage. The value of the goods so covered will be the hammer price, or in the case of unsold lots the best bid, or in the case of loss or damage prior to the sale that which the specialised staff of the Auctioneer shall in their absolute discretion estimate to be the auction value of such goods. (b) The Auctioneer shall not be responsible for damage to or the loss, theft, or destruction of any goods not so insured because of the owner’s written instructions.

5. (a) If the buyer fails to pay for or take away any lot or lots pursuant to clause 4 or breaches any other condition of that clause the Auctioneer as agent for the seller shall be entitled after consultation with the seller to exercise one or other of the following rights: (i) Rescind the sale of that or any other lots sold to the buyer who defaults and re-sell the lot or lots whereupon the defaulting buyer shall pay to the Auctioneer any shortfall between the proceeds of that sale after deduction of costs of re-sale and the total sum due. Any surplus shall belong to the seller. (ii) Proceed for damages for breach of contract. (b) Without prejudice to the Auctioneer's rights hereunder if any lots or lots are not collected within five days or such longer period as the Auctioneer may have agreed otherwise, the Auctioneer may charge the buyer a storage charge of £1.00 + VAT at the current rate per lot per day. (c) Ownership of the lot purchased shall not pass to the buyer until he has paid to the Auctioneer the total sum due.

12. The Auctioneer shall remit the proceeds of the sale to the seller thirty days after the day of the auction provided that the Auctioneer has received the total sum due from the buyer. In all other cases the Auctioneer will remit the proceeds of the sale to the seller within seven days of the receipt by the Auctioneer of the total sum due. The Auctioneer will not be deemed to have received the total sum due until after any cheque delivered by the buyer has been cleared. In the event of the Auctioneer exercising his right to rescind the sale his obligation to the seller hereunder lapses.

6. (a) The seller shall be entitled to place a reserve on any lot and the Auctioneer shall have the right to bid on behalf of the seller for any lot on which a reserve has been placed. A seller may not bid on any lot on which a reserve has been placed. (b) Where any lot fails to sell, the Auctioneer shall notify the seller accordingly. The seller shall make arrangements either to re-offer the lot for sale or to collect the lot and may be asked to pay a commission not exceeding 50% of the selling commission and any special expenses incurred in cataloguing the lot. (c) If such arrangements are not made within seven days of the notification the Auctioneer is empowered to sell the lot by auction or by private treaty at not less than the reserve price and to receive from the seller the normal selling commission and special expenses.

13. In the case of the seller withdrawing instructions to the Auctioneer to sell any lot or lots, the Auctioneer may charge a fee of 12.5% of the Auctioneer's middle estimate of the auction price of the lot withdrawn together with Value Added Tax thereon and any expenses incurred in respect of the lot or lots. 14. The Auctioneer’s current standard notices and information (i.e. Collation and Amendments) will apply to any contract with the Auctioneer as if incorporated herein. 15. These conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with English Law.
