  • John Linnell, RA, HRSA, RWS - “Tending the Flock” - Ref 2217
    John Linnell, RA, HRSA, RWS - “Tending the Flock” - Ref 2217 An evocative study into the quintessence of light and sky, shepherds and their flock look out over Southampton Water, an image captured by one of the 19th century’s greatest artists - John Linnell. As with many of his great works, principally the Biblically inspired pictures, the movement of light across the foreground is the source of drama – in this work the sky becomes almost an intruder over the land. Brought up in an artistic environment, Johns father, James, was a carver and gilder. The young Linnell’s artistic talents became apparent at an early age and his father was able to capitalise on them setting his son to work producing copies of George Morland (whose works were much in demand), which he was able to sell. John studied under Sir Benjamin West and renowned landscape painter John Varley, and rose to become one of the outstanding landscape painters of the 19th century. Linnell commanded around 1000 guineas for his work, an extraordinary sum; his name and ability being compared to, and often regarded in his day as superior to the likes of Turner, Constable, William Blake and Samuel Palmer. Works by Linnell can be found at the Tate Gallery, Victoria & Albert Museum and the National Portrait Gallery. This painting was exhibited at the Royal Academy’s Exhibition of Old and Modern Masters in 1883, titled Southampton Water. Price: £69,000 Provenance: H.J.Turner Esq. Stockleigh House, Regents Park, London. Latterly for the last 20 years, private collection Cambridge. Artist & Painting: John Linnell, British, (1792 - 1882) –“Tending the Flock” – signed and dated 1866 centre right.

ADAMS, Hannah. An Alphabetical Compendium of Various Sects Which have appeared in the World from the beginning of the Christian Aera to the present Day. With an Appendix, Containing a brief Account of the different Schemes of Religion Now embraced among Mankind. The whole collected From the best Authors, ancient and modern...Boston: Printed by B.

Gilt-ruled covers, gilt spine with red morocco label. Occasional foxing, as usual. Portion of top blank margin of title-page clipped away, old ink signature on “To the Readers” page. Overall a very good copy. $1,500 First edition. Hannah Adams (1755-1831) was the first woman in the United States to make her living as a writer. Born in Braintree, Massachusetts, Adams was a distant cousin of President John Adams and the daughter of a lifelong bibliophile called “Book” Adams, whose history included a failed attempt at bookselling. Too frail to go to school, she was taught Latin, Greek, geography and logic by theological students who boarded with her family. One of these students introduced her to Broughton’s Dictionary of Religions, which led to her interest in writing on religious topics. The present book, Adams’ first, was an important contribution to this literature, in that she represented denominations from the perspective of their adherents, without injecting her own opinions.

Provenance: Colonel Gould Weston, his sale, Christie’s, 15th July 1958, lot 125 as part of an album; Ralph Holland (1917-2012) Thornhill was the most important painter of interiors in the early eighteenth century and was the first British artist to be knighted, on his appointment to sergeant-painter to the King in 1720. His most celebrated works are the interior of the Great Hall at Greenwich and the dome of St. Paul’s, London. He also worked in a number of great English houses, including Blenheim, Hampton Court, Chatsworth, Easton Neston and Wimpole. This drawing may be linked to the work that Thornhill did for Isaac Loader (b.1653) at Deptford. Loader was an anchor maker by profession and was appointed Sheriff of Deptford in 1701.
