CURATED: THE JOHN BUTTERWORTH COLLECTION

John Butterworth, with his loyal wife Mary Goody by his side, set out on his antiques odyssey over fifty years ago.

John and Mary originally created JW Butterworth Antiques in the 1960s from the Mill House in Clophill, Bedfordshire, with John traversing the country in search of the best pieces of furniture while Mary ran the showrooms at the Mill. John’s appreciation for heritage and fine craftsmanship, coupled with a keen and discerning eye, kept him focused on fine pieces from the 17th, 18th and early 19th century. He would travel the length and breadth of Britain sourcing the most exceptional pieces, then strap them to the roof of his Morris Minor before setting off for his next destination.

A charismatic storyteller, John has always been generous with sharing his knowledge about the pieces he discovered, while Mary provided a warm welcome to customers who visited the showrooms. The couple made a winning combination and the business evolved and grew, so much so that in 1971 a new name, Reindeer Antiques, was born, accompanied by a move to new premises, a 17th century coaching inn in Potterspury, Northamptonshire.

The business continued to flourish, no doubt through the couple’s hard work and enthusiasm, and in 1988 Reindeer Antiques expanded further, this time to London, opening a landmark shop at 81 Kensington Church Street, long known as a destination for art and antiques. For over thirty-five years Reindeer Antiques has occupied a coveted corner location there, albeit more recently with a new owner.

In recent years John and Mary desired to enjoy the life they had created together and to step back from the daily running of the business. John has continued to buy and sell

in a more informal fashion, and had the great pleasure in seeing his daughters Jane and Laura embark on their own adventure in the family business. After a long and rewarding career, John and Mary have now made the decision to close this chapter of their life and focus their attentions on family and other ventures. Lyon & Turnbull are delighted to be able to offer the following lots for sale at auction, all curated by John and a testament to his years of experience and ability to spot a ‘good thing’.

GEORGE III MAHOGANY AND HAREWOOD PARQUETRY AND MARQUETRY MARBLE TOPPED BOMBE COMMODE, IN THE MANNER OF PIERRE LANGLOIS MID 18TH CENTURY

the serpentine green marble top with a moulded edge above four long graduated drawers with original rococo mounts, the trellis parquetry panels centred by floral marquetry with foliate gilt metal pulls and escutcheons, above a shaped apron, flanked by angles with trailing acanthus gilt bronze mounts headed by female masks, the side panels with trellis parquetry centred by a cartouche with urn marquetry, all raised on French bracket feet with gilt bronze acanthus mounts

142cm wide, 89cm high, 69cm deep

£8,000-12,000

The present commode belongs to a small group of similar pieces that appear to have been made by foreign cabinetmakers working in England during the 1760s and 1770s. The most fully documented of these is the Frenchman Pierre Langlois (fl. 1759-1781) although other emigre cabinet makers such as Christopher Fuhrlogh, Johann Christian Linning and George Haupt were also producing furniture in the same oeuvre at this time. See Lucy Wood, Catalogue of Commodes, London, 1994, pp. 168-170, for a discussion on a group of related commodes in the Continental manner.

The relationship between cabinetmakers and marquetry cutters at this period is somewhat unclear, and it is certainly possible that an individual’s special skills were used by a number of cabinet-makers at the same time. As Christopher Gilbert notes in The Life and Works of Thomas Chippendale ‘It has never been adequately explained how London cabinet-makers who, over the previous fifty years, had become accustomed to producing furniture which was either richly carved or faced with naturally figured veneers, managed quite suddenly to recruit accomplished marquetry workers to satsify the demand for elaborately inlaid pieces in the newly fashionable Neo-Classical taste’.

In 1768, William Cooksworthy of Plymouth became the first person in Britain to make true or hardpaste porcelain of the type then being imported from China by the English East India company. It had taken many years of experimentation. He applied for a patent, established a company and began production on a commercial scale. The Plymouth factory was never commercially successful due to lack of finance and the challenges of working with a new and unstable material. The factory was short lived, closing in 1770. Production was transferred to Bristol.

PROPERTY FROM THE ESTATE OF THE LATE ROBERT BOGDAN

The late Robert ‘Robbie’ Bogdan (1950-2023) was known for his kindness, hospitality, and boundless enthusiasm. Educated at Gordonstoun, he went on to read medieval history and geography at St Andrews University. This was followed by a PGCE at St Catherine’s College, Cambridge. He went on to teach Geography for forty years at Charterhouse School, Surrey, where he ran the hockey team, a sport at which he excelled, retiring in 2015. In 2019 he became the chairman of the Scottish Castles Association, where his love of the history and heritage of Scotland could be indulged. He loved nothing better than scrambling over the wilder parts of Scotland looking for castle ruins and Scottish tower houses. Accounts of his trips, often taken in his 1930s Riley, were shared in the Association’s newsletters and journal.

Robert’s grandfather, Vladislav Bogdanovich, studied law at Moscow University, graduating in 1914. A career in the Russian Imperial Navy followed, and by 1917 he was married with a young son, Andrew, working in London attachéd to the Imperial Russian Embassy. As a result of the Russian Revolution, the family essentially found themselves stateless and refugees, and so remained in Britain where they settled. As a young man Andrew met Mhairi Irvine when she was the commandant of the naval hospital on the Isle of Man. They married in 1946, with Robert being born in 1950, preceded by his brother Nicholas in 1947. During this time the family name was shortened from Bogdanovich to Bogdan.

Mhairi, who was born an Irvine, was closely tied to the Burnett and Ramsay families, and it is through the Ramsays that Robbie’s association with Barra Castle came about. A

16th century tower house in Aberdeenshire, Barra Castle was home to the Ramsay family since the 18th century. In the early 20th century marriage brought the castle under the ownership of the Irvines, and in the early 1960s it passed to Robbie’s grandmother, Dorothy Irvine [née Burnett], who remained there for four decades. Robbie was a regular visitor and in the 1980s bought a cottage nearby, where animals, friends, and newcomers alike were always welcome. A gifted storyteller, he took great pleasure in showing guests some of the quirky artefacts tucked away in chests and cupboards that had been accumulated by his Russian or Scottish ancestors. Some of these treasures are included for sale here, including lot 374, a Russian icon attributed to Semyon Galkin, and lot 373, a French gold and Italian micromosaic box by Pierre Andre Montauban.

Following his sad passing, Robert leaves his partner Diana and a multitude of friends, whose lives were made richer by the twinkle in his eye and generosity of spirit. Lyon & Turnbull are pleased to offer the following lots for sale to new owners so that their story continues.

Note: A later handwritten note on the reverse identifies the sitters as George Mackay, 5th Baronet of Reay, and his wife, however this attribution is spurious as the 5th Lord of Reay died in 1768, a decade before Francis Torond was actively working as a silhouette artist. The 6th Lord of Reay was unmarried, so it is uncertain who the sitters may be.

Note: Born in Paris in 1763, Pierre-André Montauban is only recordedin Paris from 1800, whenhe entered a post-revolutionary mark as bijoutier; garnisseur from 30 quai des Orfèvres. As garnisseur, he specialised in mounting miniatures or other types of panels, such as micromosaics, in gold boxes. Because no boxes with Montauban’s maker’s mark are to be found with a post-1819 Paris mark, it is generally assumed that he either died or retired before then.

For comparable snuff boxes with micromosaic panels see an example with a Roman micromosaic by Antonio Aguatti, representing Cupid driving a shellchariot, in the Gilbert Collection, London, acc no. 474-2008; and another with a micromosaic of an Italianate landscape, in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, acc no. 42.53.14.

FREDERICK WILLIAM JACKSON

(BRITISH 1859-1918)

HARVEST-TIME

Signed, oil on canvas

51cm x 61cm (20in x 24in)

£2,000-3,000

Frederick William Jackson’s HarvestTime encapsulates the amalgam of tradition and artistic innovation for which the Staithes School is renowned. Over successive harvest seasons the Staithes coastline would have turned to gold as generations of farmhands piled hay into stacks. By the turn of the century, the livelihood of Staithes’ farmers and fishermen were threatened by encroaching industrialisation. The Staithes painters, themselves fleeing urbanisation, were enchanted by the coastal community’s connection to the land and sea, and sought to document their dwindling way of life. The artistic activity buoyed the town’s economy, and the Staithes Group coexisted with the locals in an unlikely but mutually-beneficial harmony.

Jackson evokes the brilliance and clarity of the coastal light in late summer. The expansive sky, sea and fields are denoted with an almost exclusive use of pale blue and golden yellow pigment. These contrasting hues (directly opposed on the colour wheel) and the bisection of the composition along the horizon invest the scene with striking lucidity - which Jackson disrupts by inverting the tones of the land and sky in the farm hand’s straw hat and worker’s jacket.

In the spare palette and compositional balance, one might identify the European modernist impulse to eschew pure representation and instead prioritise form, line, colour and atmosphere. Exceedingly well-travelled, Jackson had just returned from a yearslong sojourn in Paris where he studied the Barbizon School, and he brought to Staithes inflections of an impressionist style and a commitment to painting en plein air. Harvest-Timeis a superlative example of the artist’s work from this period, which Lyon & Turnbull are delighted to present to the market.

Note: The colours on the horse belong to John Gully (1783-1863). Gully was a colourful character who became an English champion prizefighter after having been imprisoned for debt due to the failure of his butchery business. Upon Gully’s retirement from the ring in 1808 he took up horse racing. An inveterate gambler, in 1827 Gully once lost £40,000 backing his horse Marmeluke in the St.Ledger.

ITALIAN EMBOSSED ‘ANIME’ MILANESE SUIT OF ARMOUR, IN THE MANNER OF FELIPPO NEGROLI

19TH CENTURY, IN THE 16TH CENTURY STYLE

in the Mannersist style, comprising a burgonet with one piece skull with pointed peak and neck guard, decorated with volutes and acanthus leaves, pair of cheek-pieces; the articulated cuirass of ‘anime’ construction with a breastplate overlaid with an embossed winged cherub mask, the basal plate with a further human mask and skirt of two lames; the arm defences with a pair of spaulders embossed alla romana with large lion masks, vambraces and large couters, and gauntlets; the leg defences with articulated cuisses, the poleyns embossed with further masks, on a mannequin body for with carved wood head, mounted on an ebonised plinth with castors

196cm high overall

£2,000-3,000

Note: The present lot, a most extraordinarily fanciful suit of armour, was made in the 19th century, and is based on the work of the 16th century Italian armourer Filippo Negroli, whose embossed armour was praised by sixteenth-century writers as ‘miraculous’ and deserving ‘immortal merit.’

The second quarter of the sixteenth century witnessed the emergence of a new fashion of armour design based on the forms and ornament found in classical art. Embossed in high relief, richly gilt, and damascened in gold and silver, these lavish parade armours all’anticawere worn by Renaissance kings and captains who wished to project an aura of power and virtue by arraying themselves like the heroes of ancient Roman history and mythology.

The re-creation of classically inspired armour is invariably associated with Filippo Negroli, the most innovative and celebrated of the renowned armourers of Milan.

Within the Negroli family, Filippo was the best known of his extremely successful generation, which included his brother Francesco, a skilled damascener in the service of Emperor Charles V, and his cousin Giovan Paolo, a talented master who provided armour to the French court.

The extraordinary technical abilities of the Milanese armourers, combined with their imaginative adaptation of decorative motifs from the antique, such as lion and Medusa heads, fantastic creatures, and abundant foliate ornament, gave rise to an original art form that evokes the pomp and pageantry of the Renaissance courts.

Note: Glass panels such as the present ones would have been a common sight in what is now southern Germany and Switzerland starting in the late 15th century. They would not only be used in churches, as is still the case today, but also castles, townhalls, inns, guildhalls and private houses. One of the present panels is signed to the bottom right with the initials HS. Identifying the painter and his place of work: Hans Schnyder from Rapperswil, a town in Switzerland which had a lively glass production from at least the early 16th century. Schnyder seems only to have been active in Rapperswil from around 1600 to his death in 1616.

TWO SWISS PAINTED AND LEADED GLASS PANELS

EARLY 17TH CENTURY

the first a ‘Willkommscheibe’, depicting a mercenary holding a long gun over his shoulder and presented with a chalice by his wife, with smaller scenes of a dinner party above, the figures identified as Heinrich Ott Von Güderberth and his wife, dated 1607; the other centred by a heraldic shield beneath the figure of a man holding a castle turret and a star, flanked by figures of St Ulrich and St Anna, with a scene of the battle of Lechfeld (910) above, with dedication below to Ulrich Ulrich Von Schwyz and his wife Anna Birchlerin, dated 1615; both mounted in modern wood frames with trestle bases (2)

32cm high, 21cm wide, excluding frames

£400-600

The second panel is a so-called Willkommscheibe, or welcome panel, which were usually commissioned by the family themselves to celebrate the safe return of the husband from war. The central image of these panels is always the husband shown with a weapon, in this case a musket, and the wife handing him a welcome drink in a goblet. The scenes above are unique to each panel, in this case showing a group of men around a table welcoming back their friend after his service in the war, and the wife serving them a jug, followed by a fool in his typical regalia. The bottom part of this glass panel seems to have been cut off, but it still shows the heraldry of the family, their names and what may have been the sign of the guild of stone masons.

Note: The inscription, which appears to be in early Danish, roughly translates as ‘When God is with us, He will save us in our hearts’

VINCENZO GEMITO (ITALIAN, 1852-1929) THE WATER CARRIER (L’ACQUAIOLO)

polished bronze, modelled as a nude boy holding a water pot and cup, mounted on a rectangular grey marble base in the form of a fountain with Neptune mask spout and trough below 25cm wide, 65cm high, 28cm deep

£600-800

Note: The Italian Gemito exhibited a sculpture of a young fisherboy at the Salon in Paris in 1877 (‘Il Pescatore’, the bronze now in the Museo Nazionale del Bargello, Florence). The success of this work encouraged him to continue in this genre, giving his models more expressive poses. He created this statuette in Naples, gaining inspiration from the cheeky children on the street, nicknamed ‘scugnizzo’. Gemito was one of the sculptors in the second half of the 19th century known as the ‘Neo-Florentines’ who took their inspiration from the Italian Renaissance, particularly from the sculptures of Verrocchio, Donatello and Giambologna. This work follows in the tradition of the ‘Fisherman dancing the Tarantella’ by Francisque Duret (Louvre) and of the ‘Young Neapolitan Fisherboy’ by Rude (Louvre). However, it also draws on ancient Roman statuary, such as the numerous bronze fauns with slender bodies discovered in the ruins of the luxury villas of Pompeii and Herculaneum.

A. BEFORE THE SALE

1. DESCRIPTIONS OF LOTS

Whilst we seek to describe Lots accurately, it may be impractical for us to carry out exhaustive due diligence on each Lot. Prospective Buyers are given ample opportunities to view and inspect before any sale and they (and any independent experts on their behalf) must satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any description applied to a Lot. Prospective Buyers also bid on the understanding that, inevitably, representations or statements by us as to authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or Estimated selling price involve matters of opinion. We undertake that any such opinion shall be honestly and reasonably held and only accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently. Subject to the foregoing neither we the Auctioneer or our employees or agents accept liability for the correctness of such opinions and no warranties, whether relating to description, condition or quality of Lots, express, implied or statutory, are given. Please note that photographs/images provided may not be fully representative of the condition of the Lot and should not be relied upon as indicative of the overall condition of the Lot. All dimensions and weights are approximate only.

2. OUR RESPONSIBILITY FOR OUR DESCRIPTION OF LOTS

We do not provide any guarantee in relation to the nature of a Lot apart from our authenticity warranty contained in paragraph E.2 and to the extent provided below.

(a) Condition Reports: Condition Reports are provided on our Website or upon request. The absence of a report does not imply that a Lot is without imperfections. Large numbers of such requests are received shortly before each sale and department specialists and administration will endeavour to respond to all requests although we offer no guarantee. Any statement in relation to the Lot is merely an expression of opinion of the Seller or us and should not be relied upon as an inducement to bid on the Lot. Lots are available for inspection prior to the sale and You are strongly advised to examine any Lot in which You are interested prior to the sale. Our Condition Reports are not prepared by professional conservators, restorers or engineers. Our Condition Report does not form any contract between us and the Buyer. The Condition Reports do not affect the Buyer’s obligations in any way.

(b) Estimates: Estimates are placed on each Lot to help Buyers gauge the sums involved for the purchase of a particular Lot. Estimates do not include the Buyer’s Premium or VAT. Estimates are a matter of opinion and prepared in advance. Estimates may be subject to change and are for guidance only and should not be relied upon.

(c) Catalogue Alterations: Lot descriptions and Estimates are prepared in advance of the sale and may be subject to change. Any alterations will be announced on the Catalogue alteration sheet, made available prior to the sale. It is the responsibility of the Buyer to make themselves aware to any alterations which may have occurred.

3.

WITHDRAWAL

Lyon & Turnbull may, at its discretion, withdraw any Lot at any time prior to or during the sale of the Lot. Lyon & Turnbull has no liability to You for any decision to withdraw.

4.

JEWELLERY, CLOCKS & OTHER ITEMS

(a) Jewellery:

(i) Coloured gemstones (such as rubies, sapphires and emeralds) may have been treated to enhance their look, through methods such as heating and oiling. These methods are accepted practice but may make the gemstone less strong and/or require special care in future.

(ii) All types of gemstones may have been improved by some method. You may request a gemmological report for

any Lot which does not have a report if the request is made to us at least three weeks before the date of the sale and You pay the fee for the report in advance of receiving said report.

(iii) We do not obtain a gemmological report for every gemstone sold in our sales. Where we do get gemmological reports from internationally accepted gemmological laboratories, such reports may be described in the Sale Particulars. Reports will describe any improvement or treatment only if we request that they do so, but will confirm when no improvement or treatment has been made. Because of differences in approach and technology, laboratories may not agree whether a particular gemstone has been treated, the amount of treatment or whether treatment is permanent. The gemmological laboratories will only report on the improvements or treatments known to the laboratories at the date of the report.

(iv) For jewellery sales, all Estimates are based on the information in any gemmological report or, if no gemmological report is available, You should assume that the gemstones may have been treated or enhanced.

(b) Clocks & Watches: All Lots are sold “as seen”, and the absence of any reference to the condition of a clock or watch does not imply the Lot is in good condition and without defects, repairs or restorations. Most clocks and watches will have been repaired during their normal lifetime and may now incorporate additional/ newer parts. Furthermore, we make no representation or warranty that any clock or watch is in working order. As clocks and watches often contain fine and complex mechanisms, Buyers should be aware that a general service, change of battery or further repair work, for which the Buyer is solely responsible, may be necessary. Buyers should also be aware that we cannot guarantee a watch will remain waterproof if the back is removed. Buyers should be aware that the importing watches such as Rolex, Frank Muller and Corum into the United States is highly restricted. These watches cannot be shipped to the USA and only imported personally. Clocks may be sold without pendulums, weights or keys.

(c) Alcohol: may only be sold to persons aged of 18 years and over. By registering to bid, You affirm that You are at least that age. All collections must be signed for by a person over the age of 18. We Reserve the right to ask for ID from the person collecting. Buyers of alcohol must make appropriate allowances for natural variations of ullages, conditions of corks and wine. We can provide no guarantees as to how the alcohol may have been stored. There is always a risk of cork failure and allowance by the Buyer must be made. Alcohol is sold “as is” and quality of the alcohol is entirely at the risk of the Buyer and no

warranties are given.

(d) Books-Collation: If on collation any named item in the sale Catalogue proves defective, in text or illustration the Buyer may reject the Lot provided he returns it within 21 days of the sale stating the defect in writing. This, however, shall not apply in the case of unnamed items, periodicals, autographed letters, music M.M.S., maps, drawings nor in respect of damage to bindings, stains, foxing, marginal worm holes or other defects not affecting the completeness of the text nor in respect of Defects mentioned in the Catalogue, or at the time of sale, nor in respect of Lots sold for less than £300.

(e) Electrical Goods: are sold as “works of art” only and if bought for use must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations by a qualified electrician first. Use of such goods is entirely at the risk of the Buyer and no warranties as to safety of the goods are given.

(f) Upholstered items: are sold as “works of art” only and if bought for use must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations (items manufactured prior to 1950 are exempt from any regulations). Use of such goods is entirely at the risk of the Buyer and no warranties as to safety of the goods are given. We provide no guarantee as to the originality of any wood/material contained within the item.

VAT at the appropriate rate is charged on the Buyer’s Premium. No VAT is payable on the Hammer Price or premium for printed books or unframed maps bought at auction. Live online bidding may be subject to an additional premium (level dependent on the live bidding service provider chosen). This additional premium is subject to VAT at the appropriate rate as above.

2.

VALUE ADDED TAX

Value Added Tax is charged at the appropriate rate prevailing by law at the date of sale and is payable by Buyers of relevant Lots.

(a) Lots affixed with (†): Value Added Tax on the Hammer Price is imposed by law on all items affixed with a dagger (†). This imposition of VAT maybe because the Seller is registered for VAT within the European Union and is not operating under a Margin Scheme.

(b) Lots affixed with (*): A reduced rate of Value Added Tax on the Hammer Price of 5% is payable. This indicates that a Lot has been imported from outwit the European Union. This reduced rate is applicable to Antique items.

(c) Lots affixed with [Ω]: Standard rate of Value Added Tax on the Hammer Price and premium is payable. This applies to items that have been imported from outwit the European Union and do not fall within the reduced rate category outlined above.

3. ARTIST’S RESALE ROYALTY (DROIT DE SUITE)

This symbol § indicates works which may be subject to the Droit de Suite or Artist’s Resale Right, which took effect in the United Kingdom on 14th February 2006. We are required to collect a royalty payment for all qualifying works of art. Under new legislation which came into effect on 1st January 2012 this applies to living artists and artists who have died in the last 70 years. This royalty will be charged to the Buyer on the Hammer Price and in addition to the Buyer’s Premium. It will not apply to works where the Hammer Price is less than £1,000. The charge for works of art sold at and above £1,000 and below £50,000 is 4%. For items selling above £50,000, charges are calculated on a sliding scale. All royalty charges are paid to the Design and Artists Copyright Society (‘DACS’) and no handling costs or additional fees are retained by the Auctioneer. Resale royalties are not subject to VAT.

239

no warranties whatsoever, whether express or implied, with respect to any material in the Catalogue other than that appearing in the Bold or Capitalised heading and subject to the exclusions below.

In the event we, in our reasonable opinion, deem that the conditions of the authenticity guarantee have been satisfied, it shall refund to the original purchaser of the Lot the Hammer Price and applicable Buyer’s Premium paid for the Lot by the original purchaser.

This Guarantee does not apply if:

(a) The Catalogue description was in accordance with the opinion(s) of generally accepted scholar(s) and expert(s) at the date of the sale, or the Catalogue description indicated that there was a conflict of such opinions; or

(b) the only method of establishing that the Authorship was not as described in the Bold or Capitalised heading at the date of the sale would have been by means or processes not then generally available or accepted; unreasonably expensive or impractical to use; or likely (in our reasonable opinion) to have caused damage to the Lot or likely to have caused loss of value to the Lot; or

(c) There has been no material loss in value of the Lot from its value had it been in accordance with its description in the Bold or Capitalised type heading.

This Guarantee is provided for a period of one year from the date of the relevant auction, is solely for the benefit of the original purchaser of the Lot at the auction and may not be transferred to any third party. To be able to claim under this Authenticity Guarantee, the original purchaser of the Lot must:

(a) notify us in writing within one month of receiving any information that causes the original purchaser of record to dispute the accuracy of the Bold or Capitalised type heading, specifying the Lot number, date of the auction at which it was purchased and the reasons for such dispute; and (b) return the Lot to our registered office in the same condition as at the date of sale to the original purchaser of record and be able to transfer good title to the Lot, free from any third party claims arising after the date of such sale.
