Haynes Fine Art and Picton House
The history of Picton House’s present owners, Haynes Fine Art, is naturally less antiquated than the house itself. Established in
1971, Haynes Fine Art, a family run business, quickly became the largest dealers outside London. With up to twenty four million
pounds worth of stock we are able to offer the serious collector and trade buyer a vast selection of works by important artists.
The gallery has built up a strong reputation for selecting major pieces by British artists, such as: John Atkinson Grimshaw; Arthur
John Elsley; Joseph Farquharson; Heywood Hardy; David Shepherd; Sidney Richard Percy; and Alfred de Breanski Snr, to name but
a few. More over, Continental names such as: Frederick Marius Kruseman; Frederico Andreotti; Alexej Harlamoff and Francois
Brunery are extremely well represented.
The Haynes Family has always strived to offer not only a wide selection of world class images but also to show a wide range of
price to suit most pockets. With prices starting from £1,800 and up to £500,000 there is a wonderful range of subjects to choose
from with all categories covered in depth, and beautifully displayed throughout the twelve stunning showrooms Picton House
offers. Also displayed is an extensive range of quality period hand carved marbles, fine furniture with tables, chairs, davenports and
desks etc, shown in potential room settings.
With the assurance of our long standing reputation within the International Fine Art Market and our close links with the two leading
trade associations, the BADA and LAPADA, you can buy with complete confidence.

Our Specialists
Tony Haynes
Mark Shaw
Mark Lambert
For 35 years we have actively searched for paintings worldwide for trade and private clients alike. Our vast knowledge of British and
European Art has amounted from our experience within our specialist fields.
Tony Haynes Senior has world renowned knowledge of European Old Masters amassed over the full 35 years. He has not only
accumulated a fabulous catalogue of paintings for the Haynes Family Collection, but for both private and trade clients too.
His namesake and eldest son, Tony, has specialised in 19th and 20th Century British and European Art with the perfect grounding within
the family business. Tony opened the family’s first gallery back in 1988 and the rest as they say is history.
This successful string to the Haynes Family bow has now gained International recognition and the Gallery now has trade and private clients
calling upon Tony’s 20 plus years experience in retail, trade and auction acquisitions.
Mark Shaw joined the team in 1993, a perfect compliment and accepted member of the Haynes Family. With his unique attributes he has
proven the only member of the Haynes team to date to be worthy of a Partnership offer. His valuable contributions and vast network of
contacts both in the UK and overseas has helped to shape one of the worlds most respected Fine Art Gallery brands.
Mark Lambert joined Haynes Fine Art in 1999. Having the sound foundation of achieving a BA (Hons) in Fine Art he wanted to make a
career in this field and naturally set his targets high by approaching one of Britain’s largest Fine Art Dealers.
Mark has worked closely alongside Tony Haynes in the gallery for three years. With his depth of Art History knowledge and a rare and
valuable eye for fine art, he now enjoys the entrusted position of gallery manager. Mark now has an enviable client base that turn to him
year after year for advice on both purchase and restoration/framing requirements. He remains an essential core member of the Haynes
Fine Art Team.
The Three Haynes Fine Art Partners have between them over 70 years experience and with that have gained acclaim from the two leading
British Trade Associations – the BADA and LAPADA.
Conservation and Restoration
Consultancy is an important aspect of our work;
prospective clients often need to know exactly what is
possible and the best way to achieve it. On many
occasions extensive testing and preparatory work must
be undertaken. Our expert team is able to draw upon the
expertise of several specialist authorities, including
Catherine Hassall of University College London, Dr. Phil
Shaw of Middlesex University and the Courtauld Institute
of Great Britain.
The studio which will handle your restoration
requirements is equipped with the largest vacuum
operated hot table in private hands in Europe; thus
ensuring that lining and indeed all aspects of the
conservation process are undertaken ‘in house’ and
never sub-contracted. Maintaining total control of all
phases of the restoration process, from receiving the
painting at our Broadway Gallery, to completion and
eventual return to its owner.
A team of internationally trained staff ensure that only
the highest possible standards are achieved in order to
meet the demands of a discerning client base. These
include galleries and collectors in Great Britain, the USA,
Australia, Germany, Holland, Greece and the Middle
East. In addition, Haynes Fine Art has been at
the forefront of painting conservation and
restoration for more than twenty-five years of
the collections within many of England’s
famous country houses.
Some three thousand square feet of studio
are dedicated to the preservation,
conservation and restoration of many of the
world’s greatest works of art dating from the
16th century to the present day. These have
included works by Lucas Cranach, Cuyp,
Holbien, Van Dyke, Reynolds, Gainsborough,
Joseph Wright of Derby, Etty, Pissarro, Seurat,
Van Gogh, Picasso, Ernst and Francis Bacon
- each and every painting being treated with
the care, devotion and respect they so clearly
deserve.

Fine Antique Furniture
Haynes Fine Art of Broadway is pleased to announce a joint venture with
Chevertons Antiques and believes it creates substantial scope for both
companies. This partnership shall benefit from Chevertons 50 years of
experience and will have the added kudos of their similar grounding as a
company to that of Haynes Fine Art, being a well established family
business which has evolved from a trade-only business into its current
format – again adding to an environment for dealers, decorators and private
collectors from all over the world to come and buy.
Tony Haynes says “Angus has been a long standing friend and when it came
down to furnishing our Broadway showrooms with fine antiques it was a
logical move to invite a trusted partner who has similar pedigree and
respect from the international trade. We have steadily sold antiques through
our showrooms over the past few years but not in any notable numbers.
With Chevertons similar depth and quality of stock to ours we now have not
only beautiful room settings within Picton House but also the complete
service to furnish our clients homes”
“Twelve extensive showroom of English and Continental antique
furniture, catering to the trade, decorators and collectors”
We believe it also provides an important validation of the Haynes Fine Art
strategy of being a first mover in discovering the unlimited benefits of
working closely with respected dealers from other disciplines of equal
standing within the world of Fine Art and Antiques. Admittedly there are
few premises which can cater for such a large stock of both paintings and
antiques and now the showrooms are in the first stages of being stocked
with furniture the staff and visitors to Picton House all comment how the
paintings and antiques complement one and other. To date we have
achieved outstanding sales within the antiques world and this partnership
we believe will benefit from Chevertons unrivalled expertise and will provide
us with an opportunity to see even better results in the months and years
ahead. There has been substantial trade interest in who our chosen trade
partner would be in the past few months and our choice of Chevertons was
based upon their high reputation within the two leading trade organizations
LAPADA and the prestigious BADA, and more importantly the long trusted
relationship between our two families. We look forward to working with
Chevertons on this significant venture and value the opportunity to work
with them on this project.
“No matter how contemporary an interior, it’s nothing without
an antique”
The constantly changing and varied stock ranges from the best 18th and
19th Century English and French furniture all the way through to more
affordable 20th Century decorative pieces, making the stock available to all
tastes and budgets.
Whether you are seeking Queen Anne, Georgian, Regency, Victorian,
Edwardian, Louis XV, Louis XVI, Regency, or Empire furniture, there will
surely be something for your needs at our Broadway Galleries.

Louis H. Grimshaw was the son of John Atkinson Grimshaw, who was heavily influenced by the works of his father. It is popularly believed that he
collaborated with his father on many pictures with John painting the sky and backgrounds and Louis painting the figures.
Louis developed his own distinctive style and approach to subject matter. He became a consummate painter of twilight and night time scenes. Louis
spent a lot of his time in the north painting many views of Leeds, Liverpool, Sunderland, Newcastle and Edinburgh.
Louis also painted nocturnal harbour and dockside pictures. He spent a large period of his later life in London where he painted some of London’s most
atmospheric townscapes. Indeed in 1902 he was given the enviable task of painting a series of views of London, as it was decorated for the Coronation
of King Edward VII.
In 1905 Louis gave up painting for good and became a cartographer for the Manchester Guardian. His work is consequently rare. Louis was
commissioned by a dealer called Jackson to paint a number of London views.

FREDERICO DEL CAMPO
Peruvian 1837-1923
The Doge’s Palace and Santa Maria della
Salute from the Grand Canal, Venice
Canvas size: 19 x 28½ inches
Framed size: 29 x 38½ inches
Ref. 11005
Price Code G
Frederico del Campo was one of the finest painters of Venetian views in the latter half of the 19th Century, who was born in Lima, Peru. Early in his career
he painted many South American scenes, one of which was titled ‘Rio de san Barnaba’.
Del Campo travelled extensively throughout Europe studying in Paris, Italy and Spain at the Madrid School of Lorenzo Valles, where he studied under the
Venetian artist Grobherzogl with whom he specialised in painting Venetian scenes
He exhibited at the Paris Salon from 1880 and also in Madrid where he exhibited a painting titled ‘Vue de Venise’. One of Del Campo’s paintings ‘Marina
Grande von Capri’ was featured in the Olgemalde series of books on Venetian artists.
Whether it be his extensive views of the Grand Canal or an intimate view of a side canal in Venice, a street scene in Naples or a beach scene in Capri, del
Campo would bring a high degree of technical mastery to the scene. Over and above his competitors, del Campo was a particularly fine figure painter.

FRANCESCO ZANIN
Italian 19th Century
The Grand Canal, Venice
Framed size: 22½ x 31 inches
Ref. 10774
Price Code G
Francesco Zanin was a painter of Venetian scenes and a faithful follower in the tradition of the great Giovanni Antonio Canal called Canaletto.
Zanin was painting dramatic and picturesque views of Venice, marked by strong contrasts of light and shade and free handling. Meanwhile, partly under
the influence of Canaletto, Zanin began to produce views which were more topographically accurate, set in a higher key, and with smoother, more
precise handling, characteristics that mark most of his later work. This phase of his work culminated in this splendid work titled The Grand Canal, Venice.
At the same time he began painting the ceremonial and festival subjects which ultimately formed an important part of his work.
His patrons were chiefly European collectors, for whom he was believed to have produced a series of views in uniform size. It is popularly believed that
he also made a remarkable series of drawings in pen, and pen and wash, as both preparation for paintings and independent works of art. This led to
changes in his style of painting, increasing an already well-established tendency to become stylized and mechanical in handling. Experts in Venetian art
observe the probable use of the camera obscura as an aid to composition.
His depictions of the splendour of the grand Venetian palazzos are always drawn with breathtaking precision and faultless perspective drawing and he
manages to achieve something of the light atmosphere and mystique for which the master is so highly prized.
Zanin’s work appears frequently on the international market and is always keenly contested in both Europe and America.

Framed size: 22½ x 29½ inches
Ref. 10921
Price Code F
John Wilson Carmichael was a painter of marine and landscape subjects in both oil and watercolours, who was born in Newcastle and later moved to
London until he retired and moved to Scarborough.
He exhibited at the Royal Academy between 1835 and 1859. He also exhibited at the British Institution and Suffolk Street but he mainly exhibited at the
Northern Academy of Arts in Blackett Street, Newcastle which was next door to his studio. The centenary exhibition of Carmichael’s work at the Laing Art
Gallery, Newcastle in 1968 was the most comprehensive devoted to him. The catalogue contains a detailed account of his career.
Carmichael travelled in Holland, Italy and also in the Baltic. He recorded the Crimean War for the Illustrated London News, he coloured the figures and
buildings in many of John Dobson’s architectural drawings.
Works by Carmichael can be found at the Greenwich, Newcastle, Gateshead and Sunderland Art Galleries.
His studio sale was held at Christie’s in November 1870.

HENRY REDMORE
British 1820-1887
Choppy Waters
A pair, oil on canvas, signed and dated 1886
Canvas size: 14 x 21½ inches each
Framed size: 19 x 26 inches each
Ref. 10820
Price Code F (for the pair)
Henry Redmore is recognised as one of Britain’s finest marine painters. His earliest works
show the influence of the Scottish marine painter, William Anderson who resided in Hull for
some time. John Ward, another great marine painter from Hull, may well have worked with
Redmore.
Many of Redmore’s works depict shipping in the Humber estuary, off the Yorkshire coast and
in the harbours of Whitby and Scarborough. He also visited the South West Coast of
England, and pictures are recorded by him of Torbay and ports on the Devon and Cornish
coast. It is probable that he travelled to Holland and Germany, with Hull playing an important
role in trade between Britain and the continent during the 19th Century.
The serenity, stillness, sense of colour and above all the high standard of draughtsmanship
account for the popularity of his paintings. The attention Redmore paid to detail shows that
he was a careful delineator of shipping and it’s activity and helps to create the unique
atmosphere in his work appreciated by ‘Sea going folk’ and admirers of marine paintings
alike.

WILLIAM THORNBERY
British fl. 1858-1898
Old Hulk and Cruiser
Off the Sussex Coast
A pair, oil on panel, signed, inscribed verso
Panel size: 12 x 8 inches each
Framed size: 15 x 16¾ inches each
Ref. 11057
Price Code C
It is generally thought that William Thornbery is the same artist as William
Thornley. He was a painter of coastal scenes whose work is very similar
to Hubert and Charles Thornley who may have been members of the
same family and popularly believed to be the same artist. An artist for a
number of reasons often used pseudonyms; unfortunately
Thornley/Thornbery left us very few clues as to his reasons.
His works are beautifully detailed and show a masterful understanding of
the moods of both weather and sea. They are often small in size and put
together with fine detail and great artistic merit. His fishing scenes are
spirited and similar in style to those of “Jock” Wilson, and are often
painted in pairs. These works have always been popular when they
appear on the art market.
He was believed to have first exhibited marines at the Royal Academy in
1859 from an address in Paddington, London and also at the British
Institution from 1861 until it closed in 1867. He continued to exhibit at
the Royal Academy until 1898.

JAMES WEBB
British 1825-1895
Beached Fishing Boats at Dusk
James Webb was a painter of marine and landscape subjects. He exhibited at the Royal
Academy between 1853 and 1888 as well as at the British Institution, Suffolk Street, the New
Watercolour Society, Grosvenor Gallery and various other venues.
Oil on canvas, signed and dated ’60
Webb painted coastal scenes in England, Wales, Holland and France and views on the Rhine
in a robust, naturalistic style, using a range of pale colours, perhaps influenced by Turner.
Framed size: 22¼ x 34¼ inches
Ref. 11108
His works can be found in the Tate Gallery, Victoria and Albert Museum and most of the
provincial art galleries. Sales of his remaining works and his own collection were held at
Christie’s on 03 March, 13 June and 13 July 1868.

Many other members of the Webb family were also painters.

JOHN ATKINSON GRIMSHAW
British 1836-1893
Moonlight on the Lake, Roundhay Park, Leeds
Oil on canvas, signed
Ref. 11209
Price Code G
John Atkinson Grimshaw was a Leeds painter of landscapes, town views and dockyards, especially at sunset or by moonlight. His most frequent subjects
were towns and dockyards in London, Liverpool, Leeds, Glasgow, Scarborough and Whitby.
The subject matter of Grimshaw’s paintings was innovative. Night scenes, lit by moonlight, reflected on wet cobbled streets where horse-drawn traffic
moved, wraithlike through the mists; dockyard scenes with the spiky outlines of the ships’ masts rearing up against a darkening sky, hansom cabs and
people scurrying through rain swept streets lit by a golden flow from the shop windows; rural lanes flanked by sad, leafless trees – it was from such
unlikely subjects as these that Grimshaw extracted his unique form of poetry.
The son of an ex-policeman, Grimshaw began painting whilst he was working as a clerk for the Great Northern Railway and encountered great opposition
from his parents. He painted mostly for private patrons and by 1870 he was successful enough to rent Knostrop Old Hall where many of his paintings
now hang.
Grimshaw’s landscapes are permeated with photographic vision, with their mists, the stencilling of branches or masts against a moonlit sky, the
reflections of light on water and dark, smudgy figures that seem like shapes that have moved on a time-exposed photograph. He managed to sustain a
deeply poetic imagination until the end of his life. His scenes of urban and rural lanes, and the nocturnal views of Greenock and Liverpool, are a powerfully
evocative Victorian extension of the “moonlight Pether” tradition.
The artist exhibited at the Royal Academy between 1874 and 1886 and also at the Grosvenor Gallery.

Alfred de Bréanski was a distinguished landscape painter who became famous for his resplendent views of the Welsh and Scottish Highlands; he also
painted many views of the Thames. Often bathed in a flood of golden light, these landscapes usually feature water and cattle or sheep on grassy banks;
sometimes a solitary figure is seen in the distance.
Bréanski belonged to the real stamp of those landscape painters who nimbly seized moments of the day. He had a great passion for the Highlands and
perhaps more than any other, caught the atmospheric influences of the undulating landscape.
Born in London, Alfred was the eldest son of Leopold Bréanski; his younger brother and sister, Gustave and Julie, were also painters. He made his debut
at the Royal Academy in 1872 and he continued to exhibit there until 1918. He also exhibited at the Royal Institute of Oil Painters and the Royal Cambrian
Academy. His many patrons included Sir James Lemon and the Bishop of Peterborough, who purchased the first picture that he exhibited at the Royal
Academy ‘Evening: Softly falls the even light’.
In 1873, Bréanski married Annie Roberts, a talented Welsh artist whom he met during his frequent painting trips to Wales. They had seven children, two
of which, Alfred Fontville and Arthur, were both to become painters. For much of his life Bréanski lived in Greenwich, Lewisham and Cookham and in
1880 he became a Freeman of the City of London.
The work of Bréanski is represented in several public collections including the Southampton Art Gallery and the Laing Art Gallery, Newcastle-upon-Tyne.

Lewisham and Cookham and in 1880 he became a Freeman of the City of London.

Art Gallery and the Laing Art Gallery, Newcastle-upon-Tyne.

Cattle Grazing at the Lochs Edge
Ref. 10896
Price Code F
Louis Bosworth Hurt was a landscape painter from Derbyshire who exhibited at the Royal Academy between 1881 and 1901. He also exhibited at Suffolk
Street. Hurt’s subjects were mainly highland scenes with cattle.
Amongst the many titles that he exhibited at the Royal Academy were ‘In a Northern Glen’, ‘The Silence of the Woods’ and ‘By Peaceful Loch and MistWreathed Hill’.
Hurt sought for and achieved purity of form in the more broken and undulating highland landscape. His is an important and distinguished interpretation,
which he occasionally exaggerates, perhaps, but by means of which he succeeds in rendering a few timeless moments of nature.
Works by Hurt can be found in many museums and art galleries including the Reading Museum.

William Mellor was a Yorkshire landscape painter, who was born in Barnsley. He did not
exhibit in London, but his works frequently appear on the market. He worked in Ilkley,
Scarborough and Harrogate.
Mellor travelled widely and was inspired by the landscape of North Wales and the North East,
particularly Yorkshire. His landscapes are easily recognised and are generally scenes in
summer or early autumn. Travelling in winter was not a pleasant undertaking even in the 19th
Century.
With England offering up some of the most poetic and beautiful landscapes in the world, we
have a lot to thank the 19th Century landscape artists for. Mellor’s concept was aided by rich
pickings, from the calm waters and undulating landscape of the English countryside to the
rugged and strong scenery of North Wales. With strength of composition and patient
observation Mellor painted enchanting records of Britain’s timeless landscape.
The most distinctive feature of Mellor’s paintings is the meticulously delicate rendering of
trees and foliage heightened by the rich English sunlight that bathe the scene. Mellor was
one of a few who knew so well how to reproduce the peaceful side of nature in its bountiful
beauty.

Born as Benjamin Williams, the artist added the surname Leader (his Father’s middle name) to distinguish himself from the Williams family of painters of
which he was not a member.
Upon abandoning a profession in engineering for art, he became a pupil at the Royal Academy in 1853. The following year he showed his first picture
there and continued to exhibit prolifically up until 1923.
Leader achieved notable success with his painting ‘February Fill Dyke’, exhibited in 1881. It remains one of the most famous Victorian paintings and is a
tribute to Leader’s artistic talents. The Royal Academy elected him an Associate in 1883, and an Academician in 1898. He also exhibited abroad winning
the gold medal and the Legion of Honour in Paris in 1889.

HENRY JOHN BODDINGTON
British 1811-1865
The Village Ford
Canvas size: 26¼ x 41 inches
Ref. 10669
Price Code F
Henry John Williams was the second son of Edward Williams. He showed an early aptitude for painting, but did not have any formal training, other than
the instruction he received from his father.
In 1832 he married Clarissa Eliza, the daughter of William Boddington, a solicitor’s clerk. His adoption of her maiden name, in order to give his paintings
more individual identification, appears to have been an immediate turning point in his career.
The Fine Arts Quarterly Review noted that he “painted pictures not only large, but sometimes grand. His landscapes of mountain, lake and river have
scenic breadth and power…”
The influence of Edward Williams can clearly be seen in the earlier work of Boddington. However, he soon developed a more realistic interpretation of the
woodland tradition. One of his most individual marks was the exceptionally fresh green and leafy effect of his trees, which were very varied in treatment and
owing much to the many detailed sketches from which he is known to have worked. By 1840 he had established his name with woodland and village scenes.
In 1842, at the age of thirty-one, he became a member of the Society of British Artists, having exhibited at their gallery since 1837. A great number of
artists exhibited work with the Society, which had been founded in 1823, but actual membership was very limited. Boddington was the only one of the
Williams family to achieve this – a distinction that carried a definite status and responsibility. (Any member who wanted to resign had to give three
months notice and pay a fine of £100.)
The Illustrated London News for 6 March 1847 devoted the cover to a woodcut, after a painting by Boddington, shown at the British Institution in the
spring of that year.
An established member, Boddington became a most enthusiastic exhibitor with the Society of British Artists, often exhibiting ten or more works at once.

George Augustus Williams was a landscape painter, being a member of the well-known
Williams family of painters. He was the third son of Edward Williams, born on 04 May 1814 in
the St. Marylebone district of London. He was a prolific and versatile artist, painting Thames
views, moonlight scenes, coastal subjects and landscapes in Kent, Wales and elsewhere.
By 1841 he and his wife Caroline had a family of four sons and a daughter. Later they moved
to Barnes, (almost within sight of the Thames, which Williams so often used as the subject of
his paintings) where the artist lived for over fifty years.
George almost certainly inherited a talent from his background, but his work also contains
distinguishing characteristics, which give it a very definite identity. He handled colour with
great freedom, producing a variety of surfaces and delicate fluidity of tone, a golden harmony
that owes something to J.M. Turner. Whether winter or summer scenes, these canvases are
overlaid with a subtle transparency of yellow glazing, creating either warmth or cold,
according to the value of the tones employed.
Williams exhibited mainly at Suffolk Street (140 works) as well as at the Royal Academy
between 1841 and 1885, British Institution and elsewhere.

Benjamin Eugene Fichel was born in Paris on 30
August 1826. He was a genre painter of the French
School. Fichel was a pupil of P. Delaroche and Drollings
at the École des Beaux-Arts. His favoured subjects
were genre, history, literary subjects and portraits.
Fichel’s paintings are characterised by a great attention
to detail and anatomical precision. Delaroche nurtured
Fichel’s keen observation and natural talent and soon
had him producing works of outstanding quality. The
smaller format suited his painstaking style and these
are often compared to the works of Meissonier. His
work did not go without recognition and in 1849 made
his debut at Salon de Société des Artistes.
He was awarded 3rd Class medals in 1857, 1861, 1869

The domestic antics of the higher echelons of the Roman Catholic Church exercised a powerful fascination for a number of popular painters and their
patrons during the late 19th and early 20th Centuries. Their popularity has remained remarkably constant on a worldwide scale, much more so than a
number of other types of paintings.
Buyers of Laissement’s work are seduced by the high technique lavished upon them, unashamedly Laissement uses large expanses of Episcopal purple
and crimson in his canvases giving his works brilliance and complimenting beautifully his masterful compositions.

PIETRO SALTINI
Italian 1839-1908
Darby and Joan
Ref. 11127
Price Code G
Pietro Saltini was born in Florence the capital of Tuscany in Northern Italy on 21 February 1839, the son of Giovanni Baptist Saltini and Maria Hammerings.
A devotee of the arts, three of his sons became imbued with a similar spirit. The young Pietro also benefitted from the influence of his mothers family
which included the important Chancellor Giovanni Hammerings, the famous violinist Ferdinando Giogetti and his uncle the landscape painter Luigi Run
who all cultivated Pietro’s early artistic inclinations.
In 1856 he began his studies with the leading fresco painter Raffaello Mars and honed his skills in drawing, figure and landscape painting.
In 1860 and despite his father’s protestations he managed to enrol himself at the Academy of Fine Arts under Enrico Pollastrini where he learnt the
principals and purity of the renaissance masters. At this time he collaborated with Pollastrini and Francesco Vinea in an important commission to produce
a large history piece ‘The Battle of Legnano’.
In 1863 he won the competition of the Royal Academy in Florence and also won the approval of King Victor Emmanuel II for his portrayal of ‘Simon di
Martini painting the ‘Laurel’ Madonna in Avignon’ destined for the private apartments of the Pitti Palace.
In 1864 Saltini journeyed to Rome where he was exposed to the full attributes of the European school and experienced the important annual ‘Prix de
Rome’ competitions which were at its zenith at this time. Here he submits the figurative piece ‘Dante in the studio of Giotto’ at the Dante Alighiere,
sixth Centennial celebration commissioned by the gallery director Ludovico Metzger.
By 1866 Saltini had reached a position of financial security and marries his fiancée Emilia Rossi of Dicomano with whom he goes on to have four sons.
In 1867 he is invited to Rome by the Pontifical delegate to paint the portrait of Pope Pius IX and so supports the ethical function of fine art in adherence
to Catholic spirituality. By 1868 Saltini is dedicated to ‘Realism’ and begins a series of compositions on the theme of motherhood and is now already
teaching at the academy of drawing. In 1869 he became founder of the Society of Fine Arts.
At this point Saltini’s pictorial compositions evolve towards subjects of a more social naturalism and he begins to emphasise simple family virtues and
relationships and the small daily heroisms and reflects abandonment of his previous subject matter. With this change Saltini appeals to a new group of
patrons who will dominate his oeuvre throughout the remainder of the 1870’s.
Saltini exhibited widely at home and abroad in Trieste and Vienna from 1873 and following his final contact with the American gallery director William
Ehrich in 1880 he finds a whole new market for his work and exhibits in Milwaukee and New Orleans.
His works can be found in Liegi, Trieste, Capodimonte, Rome and Florence.

Probably the son of Charles Hunt, Edgar painted birds and fruit as well as his well-known
animal subjects.
His compositions, usually on small canvases, were mostly of farmyard scenes in which
domestic poultry and their broods predominated; although calves, pigs and rabbits were often
introduced. He worked in a meticulous manner not a feather or a hair was out of place. Hunt’s
style is immediately recognisable, hardly changing throughout his career.
He was of a retiring disposition and seldom exhibited his work, preferring to spend his life
with the animals he owned and lovingly painted. Hunt however was very much in demand by
his patrons. His patronage wanted uncomplicated images to which they could relate
immediately and without troublesome intellectual effort. Hunt also incorporated an element
of sentimentality to elicit the maximum emotional response.

Walter Hunt was an animal painter. He was the son of Charles Hunt and probably the brother of Edgar Hunt. All three were animal painters and they all
lived in Warwickshire.
Walter Hunt painted farmyard scenes in a style similar to Edgar, especially barn interiors with donkeys and calves, but he went further afield for his
subjects and included sporting scenes in his oeuvre.
Walter was quite original in his painting of animals and figures and particularly excellent in his representation of ponies and calves. Not that he is
ineffective in his portrayal of form, texture and character of other species – for he is truly magnificent in all – but these seem to be his favourite subjects
and attract notice by their positions in his paintings and the evident care bestowed on their delineation. They may be considered as characteristic of
Walter. His pencilling is firm and free and his colouring remarkably good, of a full tone, and transparent.
He exhibited at the Royal Academy from 1881 onwards, titles including: ‘Best of Friends’, ‘Twins’, etc. ‘Dog in a Manger’, R.A. 1885, was bought by the
Chantrey Bequest.

Archibald Thorburn was born at Lasswade near Edinburgh on 31 May 1860. He was the fifth son of the miniaturist to Queen Victoria, Robert Thorburn.
From a very early age Archibald was intrigued by all forms of wildlife and by the time he was six or seven years old was already often to be found
drawing and sketching twigs, leaves, and flowers from the garden at Viewfield House. It quickly became apparent that he had been fortunate enough to
inherit his father’s artistic skills and by the age of twelve he was producing some beautiful little watercolour drawings and pen and ink studies that
already showed exceptional talent and great promise of things to come.
For many of his contemporaries, Thorburn was the greatest natural history painter Britain had produced; “a giant who represented the culmination of a
great 19th Century tradition and showed the way forward to greater naturalism”. For more than fifty years, from his first published work in 1883 to his
death in 1935, Thorburn was in constant demand both as a book illustrator and as the painter of larger, private commissions showing birds and mammals
in their natural landscapes.
Thorburn exhibited at the Royal Academy, Royal Society of British Artists, Fine Art Society and Dudley Gallery.

VALENTINE THOMAS
GARLAND
Last of the Litter
Oil on canvas, signed and
dated 1892
Framed size: 17¼ x 15 inches
Ref. 11205
Price Code C
Valentine Thomas Garland was
a painter of animals who lived
in Winchester and London. He
exhibited 24 works at the
Royal Academy from 1868, as
well as exhibiting at Suffolk
Street and the New
Watercolour Society.
Valentine Thomas was the son
of Henry Thomas Garland of
Winchester, working in both oil
and watercolour, although he
is best known for his oils.
Grave’s dictionary also lists a T.
Valentine and a T.W. Garland –
these are both probably
mistakes for Valentine Thomas.
Garland’s paintings of animals
hold an emotional appeal for a
wide audience and thus his
work was popular from the
outset. His paintings, in
particular his dog pictures, tell
a story with such feeling that
the viewer is captivated
immediately. Because of this
Garland quickly became one of
the most popular artists of the
period.
Titles at the Royal Academy
include: ‘Forty Winks’, ‘A
British Workman’ and ‘The
Sunshine of Life’.

Italian born 1858
The Guitar Recital
Ref. 10958
Price Code G
Vittorio Reggianini was born in Modena, north Italy, in 1858. He studied at the Modena Academy of Fine Arts where he later became a professor. Like
many of his contemporaries, Reggianini migrated south, to Florence, where in 1900 he participated in the Alinari Corcorso with a painting entitled ‘Tristis
Matris Nati Presaga Finis’. Reggianini also exhibited with the Florentine Art Association in 1907/8 and again at the exhibition of 1910/11. He was
affiliated with the Florentine genre painters such as Federico Andreotti and Francesco Vinea painting similar subjects, using similar props, at times
sharing the same model and like them inscribed a number of his works, ‘Firenze’.
Reggianini specialized in genre subjects including elegant scenes of bourgeois life, figure compositions particularly women’s heads and child studies as
well as more humble interiors with peasants. Reggianini combined fantasy with reality, sensuality with sensibility and above all, like many of the
Florentine historical genre painters furnished his costume pieces in luxury.
Like his Florentine contemporaries, Reggianini executed a variety of costume pieces of the bourgeoisie enjoying the arts. His pictures often include
many incidental details.
The work of Vittorio Reggianini is represented in the Mainz Museum, Germany.

Belgian 1829-1893
The Shy Pet
Ref. 10796
Price Code F
Gustave Leonhard de Johnge was a Belgian genre painter. He was the son of Jan Baptist and a pupil in Brussels of Navez. He painted portraits, historical
genre as well as family scenes.
Gustave won gold medals in Amsterdam (1862) and Paris (1863).
Beautiful women in fine silks, set in grand interiors make up a recipe of unrivalled success; de Jonghe presented throughout his career an array of such
images. With each work his setting may have differed but his focus always remained true to the female type. The use of such a grand interior gave him
the opportunity to exercise his observational and painterly skills with great flair.
Works include: ‘Notre Dame de Bon Secours’ 1854, ‘Orphans and their Grandmother’ 1862, ‘Piety’ 1864, ‘Convalescent’ 1869, ‘Birthday Congratulations’,
‘Lady before Mirror’, ‘Declaration of Love’ 1884, ‘Giving Alms’ 1866.

41. GUSTAVE JEAN JACQUET
French 1846-1909
An Alluring Expression
Panel size: 7 x 4¾ inches
Ref. 11000
Price Code C
Gustave Jean Jacquet was born in Paris on 25 May 1846
and died in the same city in 1909. He was a genre and
portrait painter as well as being a watercolourist.
Jacquet studied under Bouguereau, forsaking many other
masters and the beginning of his career was very much in
the manner of his teacher. Jacquet debuted at the Salon
in 1865 with an allegory titled ‘The Day Dream’.
However, the following year, Jacquet moved towards
the type of genre scenes that would consecrate his
reputation and so he began giving the Salons canvases
of small dimensions in which he evoked, with
conscientious concern of the tiniest detail, the elegant
life of the 16th, 17th and 18th Centuries.
In 1868 he won a 3rd Class medal and around the same
time he devoted himself to portraits, amusing himself
sometimes by clothing his models in the sparkling
outfits of the 16th Century.
Jacquet was awarded a 1st Class medal in 1875 and
four years later in 1879 he was decorated with the
Legion of Honour.
The Exposition of 1878 held a certain success for him
with a new allegory on ‘The Day Dream’.
The artistic career of Gustave Jean Jacquet is a simple
one. A tireless worker, he produced a vast quantity of
pictures, which gave him the ability to execute each one
with a sometimes exaggerated meticulousness. He was
also one of the more graceful painters of nude females
of his time and his compositions were a testimony to his
delicate tastes. His genre pieces are original and fine in
colour, while his portraits have strength, charm and
expression as well as a daintiness of tone.
Works by the artist can be found at the museums of:
Blois, Brooklyn, Chateau-Thierry, Chicago (Art Institute),
La Rochelle, New York (Metropolitan), Rouen, Paris and
Sheffield Art Gallery.

The Bashful Model
Canvas size: 18 x 15¼ inches
Framed size: 223/8 x 253/8 inches
Ref. 11084
Price Code D
Adolphe Piot was a painter of portraits
and genre subjects.
A pupil of Leon Cogniet, Piot made his
Paris Salon debut in 1850 and became a
member of the Society of French artists
in 1883. In 1890 he obtained an
honourable mention.
As a commercial artist, Piot was highly
successful. He was able to capitalize on
the growing demand for portraits from
the upper echelons of Parisian society.
Every Debutante in Europe would sit for
artists like Piot, nowhere more so than
in the French capital during the ‘Belle
Époque’. The captivating mystery he was
able to give his patrons through
portraiture ensured the artist was always
in demand and although we do not know
the identity of the sitter in this example,
The Bashful Model is typical of Piot’s
work at this time.
Paintings by this artist can be found in
the Museum of Rouen and also in the
Brooklyn Museum, New York.

British 1902-1979
Mixed Summer Flowers in a Glass Goblet
Ref. 11113
Price Code E
Harold Clayton was born in London in 1902. He came from an artistic family and was sent to art school in Hackney at an early age.
After graduating with distinction, he moved to Harrow Art School and completed the course, once again, with distinction. From here he was sent to
Hornsey College of Art where he studied graphic design and commercial art graduating, as ever, with distinction even though he was not particularly
enamoured with this art form.
Finally, Clayton went to St. Martin’s School of Art where he studied under the celebrated Art Master Norman Jones. This meeting had a profound effect
on the path Clayton’s career ultimately took, leading to his exhibition of many oil paintings and watercolours at the Royal Academy.
The level of realism achieved by Harold Clayton immediately strikes the viewer. Every flower reaches out with a triumphant display of summer’s palette.
Dainty and young blooms reach upward in a military fashion, as those who have fully flourished hang heavily with a feel of self-importance and ultimate
achievement.

44. ARTHUR HACKER
British 1858-1919
A Morning Walk
Panel size: 17 x 17 inches
Ref. 10928
Price Code G
Arthur Hacker was perhaps the most versatile of late Victorian artists and his regular and popular exhibits at the Royal Academy and New Gallery include
paintings of contemporary drama, mythological and Biblical narrative, landscapes and still lifes.
He also established a lucrative portrait painting practice in the early 20th Century, among his sitters being the artists Frank Short, Onslow Ford, William
Goscombe John and Ernest Newton.
As the son of a line engraver it is perhaps surprising that he did not undertake many commissions for book illustrations and devoted his artistic output to
oil paintings, often on a large scale.
He entered the Royal Academy Schools in 1876 and graduated in 1880 whereupon he travelled to Paris and trained in the atelier of Léon Bonnat. One of
his fellow pupils was Stanhope Forbes and, like Forbes, Hacker was much influenced by French art. His painting of French peasant life ‘Her Daughter’s
Legacy’ attracted much attention at the Royal Academy in 1881.
In 1886 Hacker helped to found the progressive New English Art Club, an association which appears rather contrary to the academic ideals expressed in
the picture he exhibited at the Academy a year later, ‘Pelagia and Philammon’ (Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool).
Other pictures in a similar High Victorian vein include, ‘The Temptation of Sir Percival’ of 1894 (Leeds City Art Gallery), ‘The Cloister of the World’ of 1897
(Cartwright Hall Art Gallery and Museum), ‘And There was a Great Cry in Egypt’ of 1897 (private collection). These paintings made Hacker famous and
popular in the 1890s but as the taste for grand subject pictures began to wane in the 20th Century, he concentrated upon portraiture and modern genre
subjects.

Ref. 11043
Price Code C
Sydney Kendrick was born in London
in 1874 and studied art in Paris
before returning home to London to
make a living as a painter of
Edwardian ‘beauties’.
He also painted genre scenes and
landscapes but following the
success of his full-length portrait of
the famous Edwardian actress
Dame Sybil Thorndike he became
sought after as a painter of society
portraits.
Britain at this time was enjoying a
‘Golden Age’, as was much of
Europe between the wars, and
encapsulated by the French in their
expression ‘Belle Époque’ which
became a highly fashionable
movement in its own right.
Kendrick was a prolific artist and
contributed to many of the most
important exhibiting galleries and
societies in Britain, particularly the
Royal Academy in London between
1903 and 1915. He achieved an
individual and captivating style and
his pictures are always keenly
contested when they appear on the
art market.
He died in London in August 1955.

Price Code E
Stefano Novo was a painter of genre scenes. He
was born in 1862 in Cavarzere and died in 1902.
It was in Venice that Novo came to specialise in
figure painting and Venetian genre. His favourite
motif was the daily life of the Venetian people fisherfolk, gondoliers, beautiful girls, handsome
suitors and children were his recurring themes. The
paintings have great charm and a romantic appeal
which has made Stefano Novo one of the most
sought after artists of this period.
Taught by P. Molenti and Eugene von Blaas, Novo
showed works from 1880 onwards in Turin, Florence,
Livorno, Venice and Bologna.
Titles include: ‘St. Mark’s Square in Venice’,
‘Merchant of all Seasons’ and ‘Awaiting the Gondola’.

PIERRE EDOUARD FRÈRE
French 1819-1886
Playtime after School
Ref. 10994
Price Code G
Pierre Edouard Frère was a painter of genre subjects. He was born in Paris on 10 January 1819 and lived at Écouen. Frère was a pupil of Paul Dalaroche,
and entered the School of Fine Arts in 1836. He won several awards for his work and was awarded the Legion of Honour in 1855. He exhibited at the
Paris Salon between 1842 and 1886.
Frère exhibited in London so frequently at the London galleries and at the Royal Academy that we assume he must have paid long visits to this country.
Frère’s obsession with the interior is inseparable from his idea of childhood. Although the life he depicts might have been hard and uncomfortable, it was
happy and innocent and the perfect atmosphere for the children to grow up healthy and pure.
The famous Victorian critic, Ruskin, said of Frère: “Who would believe it possible to unite the depth of Wordsworth, the grace of Reynolds and the
holiness of Angelico”, an accolade indeed!
His works can now be seen in private and public collections world-wide, including the Museums of Bernay, Chartres, Hanbury, Melbourne, and Paris.

Alfred Augustus Glendening Junior was a London landscape and genre painter, son of Alfred
Augustus Glendening Senior, also a painter. The artist was taught by his father and he worked
in oils and watercolours. The work of father and son often bear a striking resemblance.
Alfred Junior exhibited at the Royal Academy from 1881 to 1904 and also at Suffolk Street.
His picture ‘Haymaking’ was exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1898 and was bought by the
Chantry Bequest for the nation in 1898. Glendening Junior enjoyed a great deal of popularity
in his time, mainly because he knew what the public liked and composed his paintings
accordingly.
Later in his career, Glendening Junior also became a theatrical scenery painter, as so many of
the Victorian artists did to give them a regular income and some sort of security while
allowing them to carry on with their painting.
