• Charles Paine (1895 - 1967)

    Boat Race 1921

    Lithograph 102 x 64 cm Signed upper right in plate. Charles Paine's iconic 1921 poster encourages the use of the London Underground in order to view the Boat Race. The slick design features one boat’s stern disappearing from the frame and the other boat’s bow entering it (Cambridge won that year), alongside a strikingly Art Deco typeface. Charles Paine was a versatile and prolific designer, who drew on his training in stained glass to create bold, structured and highly stylised lithographs for a variety of companies. This decorative and brightly-coloured map illustrates the various county regiments of Great Britain, with a border of regimental badges. Condition: backed to linen; excellent, two small areas of repair to margin (invisible); hint of old folds. If you are interested, please email info@manningfineart.co.uk or call us on 07929 749056.

  • Julian Trevelyan (1910 - 1988)

    Jesus College, Cambridge

    Lithograph 38 x 53 cm Numbered 13/70 lower left and signed lower right, both in pencil. Nephew of the historian G M Trevelyan, Julian Trevelyan was educated at Bedales and then at Trinity College, Cambridge, where he read English. After moving to Paris, Trevelyan studied engraving at Stanley William Hayter’s school, working alongside artists such as Max Ernst, Joan Miro and Pablo Picasso. He married the potter Ursula Darwin in 1934, and in 1935 they moved to Hammersmith, buying Durham Wharf beside the River Thames which was Trevelyan’s studio – and home – for the rest of his life. His wartime service was – like so many artists – as a camoufleur. A Royal Engineer from 1940-43, he served in North Africa and Palestine, forcing the German Afrika Korps to use resources against a dummy army whilst real tanks were disguised as more harmless equipment. In the desert, nothing could be hidden - but it could be disguised. Following the dissolution of his marriage in 1950, he married the painter Mary Fedden. Teaching at Chelsea School of Art, Trevelyan eventually became head of the Etching Department and his pupils included David Hockney and Peter Ackroyd. Condition: generally very good; some age toning to paper. If you are interested, please email info@manningfineart.co.uk or call us on 07929 749056.

  • John Speed (1551 or 1552 - 1629)

    Map of Cambridgeshire

      Engraving with later hand colouring 39 x 53 cm A beautifully coloured map of Cambridgeshire, with an antique description of the county to the reverse. The map, along with many others, was published in Speed's atlas, 'The Theatre of the Empire of Great Britaine', first published in 1611. The map is populated by four figures in academic dress, and bordered on all sides by college crests. John Speed was an English cartographer, chronologer and historian. The son of a citizen and Merchant Taylor in London, he rose from his family occupation to accept the task of drawing together and revising the histories, topographies and maps of the Kingdoms of Great Britain as an exposition of the union of their monarchies in the person of King James I and VI. He accomplished this with remarkable success, with the support and assistance of the leading antiquarian scholars of his generation. He drew upon and improved the shire maps of Christopher Saxton, John Norden and others, being the first to incorporate the hundred-boundaries into them, and he was the surveyor and originator of many of the town or city plans inset within them. His work helped to define early modern concepts of British national identity. His Biblical genealogies were also formally associated with the first edition of the King James Bible. He is among the most famous of English mapmakers. Condition: generally very good; one tiny hole to right side just beyond plate mark.

  • David Loggan (1634 - 1692)

    Clare College, Cambridge (1690)

    Engraving with later hand-colouring 36 x 43 cm Loggan's aerial view of Clare College; the cartouche borne by two cherubs, titular banner, and college crest have been hand-coloured. Loggan was born to English and Scottish parents, and was baptised in Danzig in 1634. After studying engraving in Danzig with Willem Hondius (1598-1652 or 1658), he moved to London in the late 1650s, going on to produce the engraved title-page for the folio 1662 Book of Common Prayer. He married in 1663 and moved to Nuffield in Oxfordshire in 1665. Loggan was appointed Public Sculptor to the nearby University of Oxford in the late 1660s, having been commissioned to produce bird’s-eye views of all the Oxford colleges. He lived in Holywell Street as he did this. The 'Oxonia Illustrata' was published in 1675, with the help of Robert White (1645 - 1704). Following its completion, Loggan began work on his equivalent work for Cambridge; the 'Cantabrigia Illustrata' was finally published in 1690, when he was made engraver to Cambridge University. The 'Oxonia Illustrata' also includes an engraving of Winchester College (Winchester and New College share William of Wykeham as their founder) whilst the 'Cantabrigia Illustrata' includes one of Eton College (which shares its founder, Henry VIII, with King’s College). Bird’s-eye views from this era required a particular talent as an architectural perspectivist; it was not until 1783 that it became possible for artists to ascend via hot air balloons and view the scenes they were depicting from above. Loggan thus had to rely on his imagination in conceiving the views. Loggan’s views constitute the first accurate depictions of the two Universities, in many ways unchanged today. Whilst the Oxford engravings were produced in reasonable numbers and ran to a second edition by Henry Overton (on thicker paper and with a plate number in Roman numerals in the bottom right-hand corner), those of Cambridge were printed in much smaller numbers. The Dutchman Pieter van der Aa published some miniature versions of the engravings for James Beverell’s guidebook to the UK, 'Les Delices de la Grande Bretagne' (circa 1708). The contemporary artist Andrew Ingamells has produced a highly-acclaimed series of etchings which bring Loggan’s original vision up to date. Condition: good; trimmed to platemark and mounted to antique laid paper. Other items pasted to reverse. If you’d like to know more, please email info@manningfineart.co.uk or call us on 07929 749056.

  • William Kip (active 1598 - 1610) after Christopher Saxton (1540 - 1610)

    Map of Cambridgeshire (1637)

      Engraving with later hand colouring 29 x 32 cm An antique map of Cambridgeshire. The map was originally published in William Camden's atlas 'Britannia', which was first published in 1586. William Kip was a goldsmith and map engraver. He was born in Utrecht in the Netherlands and moved to London to pursue his career as an engraver. Alongside William Hole, Kip re-engraved Christopher Saxton's 1574 county maps for publication in Camden's 'Britannia', and it is this venture for which he is most well-known. Christopher Saxton was an English cartographer who produced the first county maps of England and Wales. Between 1574 and 1578 he engraved maps of every county in Britain, and compiled them into an atlas in 1579. These maps bore Queen Elizabeth I's arms as well as those of Saxton's patron, Thomas Seckford. Condition: generally good; faint evidence of old staining.

  • John Le Keux (1783 - 1846) after Frederick Mackenzie (1788 - 1854)

    Sidney College from the Master's Garden (1845)

      Hand-coloured engraving 12 x 15 cm Published by Rudolph Ackermann (1764 - 1834). An engraving of Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge. The College was founded in 1596 under the terms of the will of Frances Sidney, Countess of Sussex, wife of Thomas Radclyffe, 3rd Earl of Sussex, and named after its foundress. Frederick Mackenzie (circa 1788 - 1854) was a British watercolourist and architectural draughtsman. He first exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1804, and contributed eleven drawings between that year and 1828. He contributed to the Society of Painters in Water Colours exhibitions from 1813, becoming an associate in 1822, and a full member the following year. From 30 November 1831 until, his death he was treasurer to the society. In later life Mackenzie was no longer commissioned to illustrate books. John Le Keux was a British engraver. When working as an apprentice to his father, a pewter manufacturer, he began engraving pewter, and trained as an engraver. He was then apprenticed to the noted engraver James Basire, and went on to produce engravings for the architectural publications of John Britton, Augustus Welby Pugin, John Preston Neale, and others. He produced various engravings of Oxford and Cambridge colleges. Rudolph Ackermann was an Anglo-German bookseller, inventor, lithographer, publisher and businessman. In 1795 he established a print-shop and drawing-school at 96 Strand. Here Ackermann set up a lithographic press and began a trade in prints. He later began to manufacture colours and thick carton paper for landscape and miniature painters. Within three years the premises had become too small and he moved to 101 Strand, in his own words "four doors nearer to Somerset House", the seat of the Royal Academy of Arts. Between 1797 and 1800 Ackermann rapidly developed his print and book publishing business, encompassing many different genres including topography, caricature, portraits, transparencies and decorative prints.

    Brownbridge (flourished 1930s - 1940s)

    Boat Race at the Dorchester (1939)

      Lithographic brochure 15 x 19.5 cm From a small archive of works by Brownbridge, a member of the Society of Industrial Artists. A design for a poster advertising the Dorchester's dinner after the Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race. The artist has built his design around dark and light blues, to represent the colours of Oxford and Cambridge respectively. Brownbridge's design is marvellously 1930s, from the boldly decorative typeface to the whimsically glamorous guests and their waiters floating below the invitation. Boat Race dinners in London are rather different today; at any rate, prices are not normally advertised as 'excluding Wines and Cigars'. Society of Industrial Artists correspondance (photographed above) is not included; please enquire separately. Condition: generally very good.

      Watercolour 17 x 27 cm A smartly-dressed couple and their two children enjoy the sunny and immaculately-lawned Great Court of Trinity College, Cambridge. The man and woman admire the ornate fountain which stands sentinel in the middle of the court (it, along with the rest of Great Court, was erected by by Thomas Nevile, master of the college in the early 17th century). Their children, perhaps oblivious to the architectural majesty around them, amuse themselves by playing with the pigeons. Wilfred Stanley Pettitt was born in Great Yarmouth, and studied at the Great Yarmouth School of Art and the Norwich School of Art. In 1928 he showed at the Royal Academy Royal Academy for the first time, and his work was also exhibited by the Royal Society of British Artists and the Royal Cambrian Academy. In 1944 Pettitt became one of the founding members of the Norwich Twenty Group (a group of Norfolk artists who intended to raise the standards of local professional art). He died in Eastbourne in 1978. Condition: mounted to board; otherwise very good. If you are interested, please email info@manningfineart.co.uk or call us on 07929 749056.
