the Hammer price is 1,000 Euros or more and the amount cannot be more than 12,500 Euros per lot.
The amount is calculated as follows:
Royalty For the Portion of the Hammer Price (in Euros)
4.00% up to 50,000
3.00% between 50,000.01 and 200,000
1.00% between 200,000.01 and 350,000
0.50% between 350,000.01 and 500,000
Invoices will, as usual, be issued in Pounds Sterling. For the purposes of calculating the resale
royalty the Pounds Sterling/Euro rate of exchange will be the European Central Bank reference
rate on the day of the sale.

and the glorious company of the Round Table and the quest of the most holy sangreal’, drawn on the preliminary blank of a late 19th century
edition of Le Morte Darthur, with Caxton’s colophon at rear (lacking title-page?), blank following sketch inscribed by the artist ‘To my dear
Grand-daughter Angela, Edward Burne-Jones, Oct 27th 1897’, rough-trimmed, marbled endpapers, upper hinge split, contemporary straightgrained green morocco, extremities rubbed, gilt lettered spine faded, 8vo, leaf size 15 x 9.5cm (6 x 3.75ins)
Edward Burne-Jones’s fascination with Thomas Malory’s ‘Morte d’Arthur’, which began when he and William Morris were undergraduates at Oxford, is welldocumented. 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.

Baron Arild Rosenkrantz was a Danish painter, sculptor, stained glass artist and illustrator, who studied in Rome and Paris,
and spent much of his working life in England. 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.

Sarah Stone’s father was a fan painter, and it was from him that she learnt
her technique. When she was about 17 she visited the Leverian Museum at
Leicester House in London. This vast and important collection of natural
objects, including live animals, consisted of around 27, 000 items. Its owner,
Sir Ashton Lever, commissioned Sarah Stone to paint many of the specimens
housed in the vast sixteen room mansion. Her artwork is considered of great
importance as a record of some of the species collected by explorers and
housed in the long-since defunct museum, some of which are now extinct
or have endangered populations. 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. The
library at the Natural History Museum has a large collection of Sarah Stone’s
watercolours.

Primarily a painter of places, Robert Buhler is also much praised for his
portraits, which are characterised by simple and uncluttered design with the
use of strong tones. He received many commissions but most of all enjoyed
painting friends from London’s artistic and literary circles. Among his sitters
were Steven Spender, Ruskin Spear, Barnett Freedman, John Davenport,
John Minton and Francis Bacon. Henry Robin Romilly Fedden, CBE, (19081977) was an English writer, diplomat and mountaineer. He was the son of
artist Romilly Fedden and novelist Katherine Waldo Douglas, and cousin to
artist Mary Fedden who taught at the Royal College of Art alongside Robert
Buhler. He served as a diplomat in Athens and taught English Literature at
Cairo University, where he became part of the literary group of Cairo poets,
and co-edited the literary journal ‘Personal Landscape’ with Lawrence Durrell
and Bernard Spencer. After the second world war he worked for the National
Trust, rising to the post of Deputy Director-General. He wrote a number of
books on a variety of different subjects, his best-known being ‘The Enchanted
Mountains: A Quest in the Pyrenees’ and ‘Chantemesle’.

Belgian artist Louise de Hem was initially tutored by her sister’s husband,
artist Théodore Ceriez (1831-1904), who noticed her talent. After exhibiting
her first work in 1885 she went to Paris to study further where, at the private
Académie Julian, she painted living and sometimes nude models (which was
at that time in Belgium still forbidden for women). In 1891 she returned to
Ypres where she began painting still lifes and receiving commissions for
portraits. She exhibited widely, being the only Belgian painter to exhibit at
the Women’s Exhibition in London in 1900, and in 1904 she won a gold medal
in Paris for her painting ‘The Japanese Doll’.

Collection typed label on reverse
Exhibited: Royal Academy, Winter Exhibition, 1875, No. 234; Grosvenor
Gallery, 1888-1889; Grafton Galleries, ‘Fair Children’, 1895. 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.

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.

Provenance: Private collection, UK. By descent from the original owner.
Delmar Harmood Banner was born in Germany, but studied at Cheltenham, Oxford and the Regent Street Polytechnic School of Art between 1919 and 1927. He lived
at Little Langdale, Ambleside in the Lake District, and was married to the sculptor Josephina de Vasconcellos where they became close friends of Beatrix Potter.
The present work, a variation on a painting by the artist, which was on view at the Old Dungeon Ghyll Hotel in the Langdale Valley, was commissioned by the
present owner’s father directly from the artist, for which he paid 150 guineas. Based on Wordsworth’s poem The Excursion, the scene depicts Blea Tarn and the
Langdale Pikes and includes a portrait of the poet sitting on the rock to the right. Four handwritten letters and a handwritten postcard from the artist to the
original owner are included with this lot, dated September 10th 1943 to April 28 1944.

Trouville. He moved to Arles in 1922 where he kept a studio until the early years of the Second
World War. He also took up residence from 1955 onwards in the old studio of the painter
Maximilien Luce on the Avenue du Maine, Paris. After the war, he divided his time between
Paris and Saint Paul-de-Vence. In 1955, the eminent London gallery Frost & Reed purchased
a selection of his works, marking the beginning of a long and fruitful relationship between
the gallery and artist. Following his marriage to Claudine Godat, 36 years his junior, in 1956
the artist and his young wife made many visits to Brittany, and particularly the Golfe du
Morbihan, where Dyf found inspiration for his landscape paintings.

INFORMATION FOR BUYERS
AFTER THE AUCTION
Online results
If you weren’t present or able to follow the auction live, you can find results for the sale on our website shortly after
the sale has ended.
Payment
The price you pay is the amount at which the auctioneer’s hammer falls (the hammer price), plus a buyer’s premium (a
percentage of the final hammer price) and vat where applicable. You will be issued with an invoice made out to the
name and address provided on your registration form.
Please note successful bids made via live bidding cannot be invoiced or paid for until the day after an auction.
A live bidding fee of 3% + vat will be added to your invoice.
METHODS OF PAYMENT
Cheque
Cheques will only be accepted on the day of the sale by prior arrangement (please contact our office for further
information). Cheques by post will be accepted but a period of 5 working days will be required for the cheque to clear
before purchases can be collected or posted.
Cash
Payments can be made at the Cashier’s Office, either during or after the sale.
Debit Card
There is no additional charge for purchases made with these cards. Debit cards drawn on an overseas bank, however,
will be subject to a 2% surcharge.
Credit Cards
Visa and Mastercard are accepted, a 2% surcharge will apply. It is a good idea to let your card provider know in advance
if you are intending to buy something. This can help cut down the time we need to seek authority when you come to pay.
Bank Transfer
All transfers must state the relevant invoice no. If transferring from a foreign currency, the amount we receive must be
the total due after the currency conversion and the deduction of any bank charges.
Collection/Postage/Delivery
If you attend the auction in person and are successful in your bid, you are free to collect your item once payment has
been made.
Successful commission or live bids will be invoiced to you the day after the sale. When it is possible for our in-house
packing department to send your purchase(s), a charge for postage/packing/insurance will be included in your invoice.
Where it is not possible for our in-house packing department to send your item you will be required to make your own
arrangements or to contact Mailboxes etc (tel: 01793 525009) who may be able to help.
We provide a monthly delivery service to Central London, usually on Wednesday of the week following an auction.
Payment must be received before this option can be requested. A charge will be added to your invoice for this service.

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.
