It was not just the pictorial splendours in Arthurian legend that the Pre-Raphaelites found so appealing, but it was also the romantic and moral ethos of the tales which they embraced as a foil to the increasingly ugly industrialised and materialistic world. “Nothing, ” Burne-Jones wrote, “was ever like Morte d’Arthur - I don’t mean any book or any one poem - something that can never be written, I mean, and can never go out of the heart.” Novelist Angela Margaret Thirkell (1890-1961) was the elder daughter of Margaret Burne-Jones and John William Mackail. Her father was a Scottish classical scholar and civil servant from the Isle of Bute, who was Oxford Professor of Poetry from 1906 to 1911. (1) £500-800

He was influenced by the Pre-Raphaelites, in particular Edward Burne-Jones, and also by William Blake, Turner and Monet. In 1894 and 1895 he travelled to New York where he started working with stained glass, carrying out work for The Decorative Stained Glass Company and Tiffany. In England he showed work in the final exhibitions of the New Gallery, the favoured gallery of Burne-Jones and his followers in the 1890s, which closed in 1909. He had many commissions, including twelve large panels for the ceiling in the dining room at Claridges Hotel in London. He made stained glass windows and bronze sculptures for a number of English churches, houses and castles, and also established himself as a portrait painter, as well as a book illustrator. Arild Rosenkrantz was a spiritual seeker throughout his life, meeting Rudolf Steiner in 1912, founder of the philosophy of anthroposophy, the connection of the human understanding with the spiritual world. This painting, in both technique and subject matter, is typical of the deeply emotive and otherworldly quality of his work. ÂŁ400-600 (1)

Its owner, Sir Ashton Lever, commissioned Sarah Stone to paint many of the specimens housed in the vast sixteen room mansion.

The museum was put up as a lottery prize in 1786, with tickets priced at one guinea. The collection was eventually dispersed in 1806, selling at auctions over a period of sixty-five days.

Renowned miniaturist Elizabeth Reynolds (1800-1876) was the daughter of painter and engraver Samuel William Reynolds, and became the wife of Scottish engraver William Walker. She exhibited at the Royal Academy between 1818 and 1850, was appointed miniature painter to William IV in 1830, and executed portraits of five Prime Ministers. Elizabeth evinced an early love of the arts, but it wasn’t until this portrait was painted by Opie that her talent became apparent. She and her parents encountered John Opie at the residence of their mutual friend Samuel Whitbread in Bedfordshire; the painter invited Elizabeth to sit for him and the result was this portrait. When it was finished Elizabeth “then not more than eight years of age, commenced, of her own accord, an engraving from it, and completed it with scarcely any assistance; and so extremely well was the work executed that it would not have been unworthy the experienced artist. - This was Miss Reynold’s first essay” (‘The Ladies’ Monthly Museum’, August 1825). As a result of this her father determined on teaching her the art of engraving, and she became a valuable assistant to him. However, it became obvious before too long that her talents were wasted as a mere copyist, so her father encouraged her to became a portrait painter. (1) £2000-3000

THE STUDIO OF MARCUS ADAMS Marcus Adams (1875-1959). Born in Reading, the seventh son of artist and photographer Walton Adams (1842-1934), Marcus went on to work in a solicitor’s office. Attending night school at Reading Art College, he began to develop his skills as a draughtsman and designer. In 1892 he was apprenticed at his father’s photography studio, first preparing negatives and then proofing and retouching. Whilst he was starting to gain a reputation for the photographic portraits for which he would become famous, he continued his artistic education by studying in Paris and travelling to Switzerland, North Africa and beauty spots around England. In 1919 he left the studio of his father and established the Three Photographers’ Studio with husband and wife Bertram Park and Yvonne Gregory. He continued to paint and draw throughout his life, travelling widely and pursuing his other great passion of gardening, culminating in prize winning sweet peas and the beautifully designed gardens which inspired many of the works offered in this sale. Chris Adams (1867-1960). The elder brother of Marcus, Christopher studied at Reading University. Best known for his miniature paintings, he exhibited at the Royal Academy, Royal Miniature Society and Walker Art Gallery. He was commissioned to paint two miniatures for the library of Queen Mary’s Dolls’ house, both preserved in the Royal Collection. He married Minnie Walters Anson, also a miniature painter, whose work is represented in the present sale. Gilbert Adams (1906-1996). Making a third generation of photographers and artists, Marcus’s son Gilbert also studied art at Reading University under the tuition of Allen Seaby and Herbert Maryon. He too earned a reputation as a photographer, being commissioned by the British Council to make a series promoting Britain to tourists. He spent a great deal of time in St Ives where he became close friends with most of the major artists working in the area, especially Peter Lanyon and Hyman Segal. His work is held by many institutions and he exhibited widely, both as a photographer and painter.
Marcus Adams (1875-1959)
Art and picture making with a camera are fundamentally the same, requiring such essential qualities as good taste, beauty of line, and perfect juxtaposition of tone, together with atmosphere that stirs the emotion. Gilbert Adams, Photograms of the Year, (1948), p. 11 Rosalind Thuillier (1939-2015). By marrying Gilbert in 1978, Rosalind became another contributor to the family’s artistic output. Rosalind is probably best known for her books, including a biography of Graham Sutherland and an account of Marcus Adams’ royal portraits, Rosalind’s work is characterised by a bold use of colour and a blending of representative draughtsmanship with abstract freedom.

Conditions of Sale and Business 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. 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. 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. 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. 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.
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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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.
