  • Godiva Awakes First Gold Patron Leads Way in a Mission for Regeneration of Local Business Community
    Godiva Awakes first Gold Patron leads way in a mission for regeneration of local business community Leading Coventry business recovery specialist, Cranfield, is inspiring other local companies to come together to support the regions involvement in the London 2012 Olympic Games. As the first Gold Patron of Godiva Awakes, which represents the regions involvement in the Games, Cranfield is sending the message that the event represents much more for the future of business within the Midlands than just being a creative Olympic project. Godiva Awakes sees a mechanically engineered six-metre animated Lady Godiva puppet, powered by 100 cyclists on a Cyclopaedia designed and manufactured by local businesses, on her seven-day journey from Coventry to London, accompanied by a carnival of over 220 dancers and performers. Cranfield’s managing director, Tony Mitchell, who takes a proactive role in the local business community, was recently invited to the maiden unveiling of Godiva’s luxurious coat, which will cover the puppet. Within the lining of the coat each of the ten patrons will have their own embroidered panel. After Godiva’s procession to London, the coat will be on display in Coventry Cathedral following the Olympics. Cranfield initially became a patron of the project in November 2011 after directors Tony Mitchell and Patrick Murtagh attended a mystery tour event when the project was announced, and Gold Patrons were invited to support it. The event involved travelling in a vintage bus from the Coventry Transport Museum to a secret location in Coventry to see Godiva take her first steps in public. This sparked a keen interest from Tony and Patrick, who could see the potential for this ambitious project to symbolise regeneration of the various industries throughout the region.

In 1086, and probably earlier, Ansty (with Foleshill) was one of the estates of the Countess Godiva, more well known as Lady Godiva who rode naked through the streets of Coventry, for a reason that now seems obscure. This story starts in the late 15th century with the first mention of a Nicholas Geffecote who was named as a customary tenant of Ansty manor in the fifth year of the reign of King Henry VII, in the year 1490. This term 'customary tenant' was, as the description implies, an individual who held the tenancy of property in the parish in accordance with the customs of the parish. Terminology was loosely applied in these days and he could also have been described as a 'copyhold tenant' or 'tenant in kind'. Whatever type of tenancy he held, he would have been a yeoman farmer, gaining his living from his crops and livestock. Ansty Parish Church England was, at this time, moving away from the harsh regimes imposed on the common man by the Lords of the manors, serfdom, villeinage, etc and we do not know how Nicholas came to be a customary tenant. We would expect 6.BR.1 The Jephcott Family – Chapter 6 – Family BR _____________________________________________________________________________________ that he acquired his tenancy on the death of his father, but no records have been found to support this theory.

  • Compositions in Black and White by James Cady Ewell
    COMPOSITIONS IN BLACK AND WHITE BY JAMES CADY EWELL THE ART INSTITUTE OF CHICAGO MAY FIFTEEN TO JUNE FIFTEEN, 1919 AMES CADY EWELL, born Chicago, Illinois, May 28th, 1889. Studio: Fine Arts Building, Chicago. Mr. Ewell, a former pupil of the Art Institute School, J. received practically all of his art training in this insti- tution. He has also made extensive sketching tours of France, Italy, Switzerland, Morocco and the United States. Until the year 1917 Mr. Ewell devoted himself almost exclusively to water colors, participating in exhibitions by The American Water Color Society, The Chicago Artists, The Art Student's League and The American Architectural Society. During the ensuing two years Mr. Ewell has turned his entire attention to studies in design and composition, intro- ducing symbolism extensively. The intelligent use of symbols of the Far East is quite evident in this exhibition of what he sees fit to term, "Compositions in Black and White." These examples of his work-ranging in size from six to eight inches to as many feet-vary from simple self-explana- tory subjects to those having within them the intricate play of symbolism, which demands careful minute study to fully grasp their significance. Mr. Ewell has unbounded faith in the potencies and possibilities of his unique field and hopes through it to represent, in concrete and understandable form, ideas from the realms of the abstract.
