Gideon Yates (?1790-?1840)
1831 View on The Thames with London Bridge from the East Side showing Fishmonger's Hall, The Church of St Magnus the Martyr and St. Paul's Cathedral.
c.1831 29x54cm Watercolour unsigned Provenance: The Parker Gallery LIttle is known of the life of Yates. Even his date of death is disputed with some sources putting it at 1837. What is known is that he spent most of his working life in London, producing many detailed views of The Thames such as this one. His style is very distinctive, and this large and impressive view of London Bridge is a typical view. He is thought to have lived in Lancaster in 1811, and to have travelled widely throughout Britain and the Continent. His works are in public collections including the Victoria and Albert Museum. In this view, Thames barges are in the foreground with their distinctive brown sails. A steamship proceeds along the middle of The Thames. The first steamboat patented was in 1729, by John Allen an English physician. However it was not until 1783 that the first steam-powered ship, "Pyroscaphe," was demonstrated on the River Saône. By 1788 John Fitch in Philadelphia was operating a commercial service along the Delaware River were built in the United States. The first sea-going steamboat was the "Experiment" built by Richard Wright in 1813; by this point river services were becoming well established although it was not until 1815 that The Thames acquired its first successful services with "Margery" and "Thames" arriving from the Clyde where they had been in service for some years. Margate and Gravesend were the main destinations. The steamboat in this view is a paddlesteamer, with two side wheels. At the north end of London Bridge (on the far side from the viewer) is Fishmongers' Hall, St Magnus the Martyr Church is visible on the near side of the bridge, and St Paul's Cathedral is visible beyond. UK Government Art Collection item 6701 is another view of The Thames by Yates, also from The Parker Gallery. If you are interested email info@manningfineart.co.uk or call us on 07929 749056. -

John Chessell Buckler (1793 - 1894)
Horham Hall, Essex (1830)
Watercolour 25 x 34 cm Signed and dated lower right; titled below. Horham Hall was built in Thaxted, Essex by Sir John Cutte in the early sixteenth century. The original hall was a timber-framed moated manor house built circa 1470, but it was largely demolished by Cutte, who built the present house between 1510 and 1515. Cutte was under-treasurer in the households of Henry VII and Henry VIII. The mansion was built in brick in two storeys in a quadrilateral layout with a gatehouse and incorporated some elements of the former building. The house was visited three times by Elizabeth I as the guest of Sir John Cutte. It is believed that the Tower was built for her to watch the local hunt. It was while staying at Horham in 1578 that the Queen received the envoy of the Duke of Alençon proposing marriage. John Chessell Buckler was a British architect, the eldest son of the architect John Buckler. His work included restorations of country houses and at the University of Oxford. Buckler received art lessons from the painter Francis Nicholson. He began working for his father's architectural practice in 1810, and ran it from 1830 onwards with his younger brother George. They worked in partnership until 1842. Buckler did a lot of work in Oxford, carrying out repairs and additions to St. Mary's Church, and Oriel, Brasenose, Magdalen, and Jesus Colleges. He also restored Oxburgh Hall, Norfolk, and Hengrave Hall, Suffolk, and designed Dunston Hall, Norfolk, and Butleigh Court in Somerset. In 1836 he came second, behind Charles Barry, in the competition to rebuild the Palace of Westminster following its destruction by fire. Buckler's writings included the text accompanying his father's engravings of Views of the Cathedral Churches of England and Wales (1822). In 1823 he published 'Observations on the Original Architecture of St. Mary Magdalen College, Oxford', in which he expressed his hostility towards changes in the quadrangle of Magdalen College. Some of his later writings, such as 'A History of the Architecture of the Abbey Church of St Alban' (1847), were written in collaboration with his own son, Charles Alban Buckler. He wrote a further polemical work, 'A Description And Defense Of The Restorations Of The Exterior Of Lincoln Cathedral' (1866), a scathing response to accusations that, in capacity as honorary architect to Lincoln Cathedral, he had overseen a damaging restoration involving the 'scraping' of the cathedral fabric. He died at the grand old age of 100 in 1894. Condition: good. Some spots to the sky, as visible in photograph.

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.

JAK (Raymond Allen Jackson) 1927-1997
"I think we should let the Germans keep it next time" (1992)
Visitez La Belle France, Fly Air France 51x59cm Pen, ink and monochrome wash with inscriptions in pencil. For the London Evening Standard JAK was one of Britian's best-known political cartoonists, working for the London Evening Standard and the Daily Mail between the 1950s and 1990s. He left school at the age of 14, and after a brief career as a messenger boy studied at Willesden College of Technology, studying art with the aim of becoming an art teacher. Following National Service (in the Territorial Army, teaching conscripts to paint), in 1950 he became a staff artist at Link House Publications, and then at advertising agency J Keymer & Co. Whilst working here he submitted cartoons to Punch and other journals, joining the Evening Standard in 1952 as illustrator, also drawing occasional cartoons. In 1966, following the suicide of 'Vicky' (Victor Weisz), he became policital cartoonist at the Evening Standard. Some of his cartoons were highly controversial. In 1970 he caricatured power workers (then striking to improve their conditions) as stupid, greedy and deaf to reason; the entire Evening Standard staff nearly went on strike in response. In 1982 a cartoon in response to the Northern Ireland situation (he frequently depicted Irish people negatively) caused Ken Livingstone to withdraw all advertising from the Standard. His style was distinctive, drawn in ink on 17" x 21.5" board using a mapping pen and brush. His signature was always in a bottom corner, with blob-like serifs, and the title and other instructions were drawn on the picture in pencil. He also drew cartoons for the Mail on Sunday, Daily Express, and Sunday Express. -

Franciscus de Neve (c.1632-1704) 'Landscape with Shepherdess Playing a Tambourine' and 'Echo & Narcissus'
Engravings Both signed in the lower margin: 'Franciscus de Neue In. e fecit' and 'Si Stampano in Roma da Gio: Iacomo de Rossi alla Paca' Each 31.5 x 38.5cm (plate) Franciscus (or Frans) de Neve was a Flemish painter and engraver, born in Antwerp in 1632. His father, also an artist, was called by the same name, resulting in some confusion for art historians. The younger de Neve was working in Rome from 1660-1670, producing paintings for the Palazzo Doria-Pamphili (alongside Pietro da Cortona) and was known for his religious subjects, mythological scenes and landscapes. He was part of a network of Dutch and Flemish artists in the city, who helped to promote and support his career. Many of his works are known only from the engravings which in Rome were produced by Giovanni Giacomo de Rossi alla Pace (including these examples). After 1670 he travelled to Augsburg and Munich, then to Austria and Moravia, where he completed numerous commissions for altarpieces. Towards the end of his life he returned to his native Flanders and became Master of the Guild of Saint Luke. De Neve had a reputation as a gifted landscape painter, and these two engravings show his keen interest in the details of the natural world, as well as the influence of Claude Lorrain in the extensive vistas. The painting of ‘Narcissus and Echo’ after which this engraving was made, hangs in the collection of Christ Church College, Oxford - one of his few original oils known to survive. Another of the prints is owned by the British Museum. If you are interested email info@manningfineart.co.uk or call us on 07929 749056. Condition: Good. -

Samuel Howitt (1765-1822) after Thomas Williamson (1758-1817)
Exhibition of a Battle between a Buffalo & a Tiger' from Oriental Field Sports (1819)
Hand-coloured aquatint 35 x 47 cm Captain Thomas Williamson served in a British regiment in Bengal, India. He was known as a keen sportsman and, after returning to England, his notable interest in contemporary Indian sports attracted the attention of the publisher Edward Orme. Orme was a British engraver, painter and publisher of illustrated books, and in 1805 he commissioned Williamson to produce a work focused on Oriental sports and animals. The book took two years to complete, with the painter Samuel Howitt commissioned to produce watercolours based on original sketches by Williamson, most of which he had created while in India. The book in which the aquatint plates after Howitt were published was called Oriental Field Sports, which describes itself as 'being a complete, detailed, and accurate description of the wild sports of the East and exhibiting, in a novel and interesting manner, the natural history of the elephant, the rhinoceros, the tiger, and other undomesticated animals'. -

Gerardus Mercator (1512 - 1594)
Map of the North of Scotland (1683)
Engraving with later hand colouring 35 x 45 cm A fantastically characterful and detailed map engraving of the North of Scotland from 1683. The highly detailed and beautifully coloured map is inscribed to the reverse with a description of the parts of Scotland illustrated, called the ''Troisieme Table d''Escosse''. The map comes from the 1683 French edition of Gerardus Mercator''s Atlas Major, which was first published in 1585. Gerardus Mercator was the Flemish father of mapmaking. He was a skilled geographer, cosmographer and cartographer and is most renowned for creating the 1569 world map based on a new projection which represented sailing courses of constant bearing (rhumb lines) as straight lines - an innovation that is still employed in today''s nautical charts. Mercator was a highly influential pioneer in the history of cartography and is generally considered one of the founders of the Netherlandish school of cartography and geography. He is also widely considered the most notable figure of the school. In his own day, he was a notable maker of globes and scientific instruments. In addition, he had interests in theology, philosophy, history, mathematics and geomagnetism. He was also an accomplished engraver and calligrapher. Unlike other great scholars of the age, he travelled little and his knowledge of geography came from his library of over a thousand books and maps, from his visitors and from his vast correspondence (in six languages) with other scholars, statesmen, travellers, merchants and seamen. Mercator''s early maps were in large formats suitable for wall mounting but in the second half of his life, he produced over 100 new regional maps in a smaller format suitable for binding into his Atlas of 1595. This was the first appearance of the word Atlas in reference to a book of maps. However, Mercator used it as a neologism for a treatise (Cosmologia) on the creation, history and description of the universe, not simply a collection of maps. He chose the word as a commemoration of the Titan Atlas, "King of Mauretania", whom he considered to be the first great geographer. Mercator wrote on geography, philosophy, chronology and theology. All of the wall maps were engraved with copious text on the region concerned. As an example, the famous world map of 1569 is inscribed with over five thousand words in fifteen legends. Condition: a little spotting, primarily to margins. If you’d like to know more, please email info@manningfineart.co.uk or call us on 07929 749056. -
Erté (Romain de Tirtoff) (1892-1990) 'Manhattan Mary IV'
Serigraph (Artist's Proof IL/L) Signed in pencil 70 x 56cm (sheet) 41.5 x 30.5cm (plate) The Russian born Romain de Tirtoff moved to Paris around 1912 to work as a designer, choosing the pseudonym ‘Erté’ based on the French pronunciation of his initials. He produced fashion plates for the designer Paul Poiret and signed a contract with Harper’s Bazaar that saw him design over 200 covers for the magazine. Costume and stage design followed in the 1920s, for the Folies Bergeres and similar revues in Paris, then in Hollywood for Louis B. Mayer. Erté’s distinctive and elegant style came to epitomise the Art Deco era; it is characterised by a combination of sharp geometric line - like the harlequin background to this print - strong colour planes and images of fashionable modern women with close-cropped hair and asymmetric hemlines. Art Deco enjoyed a revival in the 1960s, and it was from this point that limited edition prints began to be produced from Erté’s designs. ‘Manhattan Mary’ was a Broadway musical which opened at the Apollo Theatre, New York in September 1927, with set and costume designs by Erté.

Johannes 'Joan' Blaeu (1596 - 1673)
Oxonium Comitatus, Vulgo Oxfordshire (1662)
Engraving with later hand-colouring 38 x 50 cm A decorative map of Oxfordshire by the celebrated Dutch mapmaker and artist Joan Blaeu, (son of the cartographer Willem Blaeu). Two Oxford scholars flanks the cartouche which declares the map to be of Oxonium (that is, Oxfordshire), and the design also features the arms of the British Royal Family, King Alfred, and the University of Oxford. Sixteen colleges crests border the map. Blaeu moved to Amsterdam in 1920 to join the family firm of mapmakers. In 1635, the business published the Theatrum orbis terrarum, sive, Atlas novus in two volumes - the largest and most expensive book published in the seventeenth century, and the venture for which the Blaeu were most famed. Joan and his brother Cornelius took over the studio after their father died in 1638; Joan became the official cartographer for the Dutch East India Company, as his father had been before him.

Attributed to Antony Vandyke Copley Fielding (1787 - 1855)
Dinan Tour de l’Horloge (Dinan Clock Tower)
Watercolour 28 x 21 cm A spirited watercolour of Dinan, Brittany. Dinan's famous clock tower looks over a French street scene: men, women, and children weave through the town's half-timbered houses, shops, and ateliers. The characterful mediaeval stonework and architecture of the town are paramount, and the artist adds a bright blue hue to his depiction of Dinan's roofs. Dinan is a walled medieval Breton town and commune in the Côtes-d'Armor department of northwestern France. Enclosed by nearly three kilometres of ramparts, the town and its 14th-century castle proudly overlook the Rance river. Anthony Vandyke Copley Fielding, commonly called Copley Fielding, was an English painter famous for his watercolour landscapes. At an early age Fielding became a pupil of John Varley. In 1810 he became an associate exhibitor in the Old Watercolour Society (later known as the Royal Society of Watercolours), in 1813 a full member, and in 1831 the Society's President. In 1824 he won a gold medal at the Paris Salon, alongside Richard Parkes Bonington and John Constable. Examples of his work are held by the Victoria and Albert Museum and other major museums in Britain. Condition: good. Some spotting to sky; handsomely framed.

23.5 x 16.5 cm (to mount) Ettore Tito (1859-1941) Tito trained at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Venice and later became a professor there, known for his landscapes and scenes of traditional life in the Veneto region, as well as producing several larger mythological murals notably for the Villa Berlinghieri in Rome and the Chiesa degli Scalzi in Venice. He associated with an expatriate artistic milieu that included John Singer Sargent and Isabella Stewart Gardner. However, in the 1920s he also produced these pochoir prints of emancipated women for a French magazine which were considered rather risqué at the time!

Ken Messer (1931 - 2018)
The County Hall, Abingdon (1974)
Watercolour 24 x 32 cm Signed and dated lower right. The painter and draughtsman Ken Messer is closely related to Oxford and its architecture in several ways. Born in Newport, South Wales, he was educated at the City of Oxford High School for Boys in Oxford, and then spent six years working as an accountant in Oxford. He then joined British Overseas Airways Corporation (BOAC) as a steward, flying internationally. Injury due to a car accident during the 1960s meant that he joined the design department of Pergamon Press in Oxford at the age of 33. Six years later, he was appointed to the position of studio manager, in charge of art and design. In 1974, Messer left Pergamon Press to become a freelance graphic designer. He started painting more watercolours, becoming a full-time artist. During the 1980s, his ink drawings were regularly published in the Oxford Times. He has sometimes been called "The Oxford Artist" because of his large number of works depicting Oxford. He and his wife Dilys lived at first in Richmond upon Thames and then in Abingdon, just south of Oxford. Messer's work has been shown at the Mall Galleries for the annual exhibitions of the Royal Institute of Painters in Water Colours annual exhibitions. Condition: very good.

Laurence Dunn (1910 - 2006)
The Emperor and Grosvenor
Watercolour 8 x 9 cm Laurence Dunn was an artist known for his depictions of ships. He grew up in Devon, where he practised drawing passing ships, and went on to study at the Central School of Art. He then worked for shipbuilding firm John I. Thornycroft & Company Limited, where he contributed to the design of the Royal Yacht. During the Second World War, Dunn worked in naval intelligence. In the early 1960s, he created many line drawings of Atlantic ocean liners. The World Ship Society published the following obituary for Laurence Dunn in 2006: DUNN, Laurence. [December 15 2006 — Lloyds List] Many readers will be saddened by the death of well-known marine artist and writer Laurence Dunn in his 97th year. A man of encyclopaedic knowledge, he began his lifelong love of ships in Brixham, where he meticulously recorded passing traffic with the exquisitely accurate line drawings which later became something of a trademark. While studying at London’s Central School of Art his work was noticed by the Southern Railway, which commissioned profiles of its fleet, and this in turn led to work for Orient Line, where he also designed the well-known corn-coloured hull, and later Thorneycroft, where he helped with shaping draft plans for a new royal yacht. During the second world was he worked for naval intelligence at the Admiralty, where his technique did much to improve recognition standards, and greatly expanded his shipping clientele, becoming personally known to many chairmen. As well as the shipping press he worked for mainstream publications such as Everybody’s, Sphere and the upmarket comic Eagle. Through his many contacts he enjoyed going to sea in a great variety of ships from aircraft carriers to colliers. Laurence wrote several books, starting with ship recognition titles which introduced new standards of layout, but his best known work was probably Passenger Liners, which was widely taken up by the travel trade. His love of Greece, where he was an early publicist of island cruising, let to involvement in reshaping various passenger liners beginning with Greek Line’s OLYMPIA. In later life he designed several sets of shipping stamps for the Crown Agents, produced photographic volumes on Thames and Mediterranean shipping and still found time to enjoy the passing Thames traffic. Our sympathies go to his wife Jennifer, who provided succour to the many ship lovers who beat a path to the welcoming door of their Gravesend home. Condition: very good.

John Speed/Speede (1551/2-1629) The Countye Palatine of Chester with that most ancient citie
39x51cm Engraving Probably the most famous early English mapmaker, John Speed's early life is somewhat of an enigma. He is believed to have trained as a rolling-press printer, but he was at heart an historian granted a sinecure in the Customs House by Queen Elizabeth to indulge his passion, later becoming a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries. His first maps were historical, of the Holy Land 'Canaan as it was Possessed both in Abraham and Israels Dayes' and of England and Ireland recording 'all their Civill Warres since the Conquest'. In 1611 he published his 'Hostory of Great Britaine' which he regarded as his magnum opus, but it was the companion atlas 'Theatre of the Empire of Great Britaine' that - as the first printed atlas of Great Britain - sealed his reputation. William Rogers engraved the first map, 'the County Palatine of Chester' in about 1600, but following his untimely death the task of engraving was passed to Jodocus Hondius of Amsterdam. By 1612 the atlas was complete, the maps famed for their decorative elements. Many have town plans - Brtiain's first series of such plans - and descriptive text was printed to the reverse until the 1676 edition. Later printings (up until 1770) were issued without this text. By 1627 it has become a part of a world atlas 'Prospect of the Most Famous Parts of the World'. During the 17th century the plates passed through the hands of a series of publishers, the 1676 edition (as here) of Thomas Bassett and Richard Chiswell being regarded as its high point with the inclusion for the first time of a series of important maps. If you are interested email info@manningfineart.co.uk or call us on 07929 749056. Condition: Trimmed and other small losses outside platemark. Some toning and spotting to paper as usual.

Claude Muncaster (1903-1974) Farmstead and Trees
Dated Sept 1921 Signed on reverse with additional sketches of figures Watercolour 22x28cm Claude Grahame Muncaster, RWS, ROI, RBA, SMA was the son of Oliver Hall RA. At the age of fifteen his career as a landscape painter began, and he soon took to the seas, spending the 1920s and 30s travelling the world with his sketchbook in a series of vessels. With the outbreak of war and he joined the RNVR training as a navigator. Having left school at fifteen his mathematics was very weak and it was a relief for all when his artistic talents meant he was recruited as a camofleur. A master of capturing seascapes he was therefore able to hide huge ships ‘in plain sight’ with clever disguises. After the war he painted for the Royal Family and was a frequent guest at Sandringham. Claude Muncaster was a watercolourist known for his landscapes and maritime scenes. He was born Grahame Hall, the son of the Royal Academician Oliver Hall who taught his son to paint from an early age; Grahame first exhibited his work aged 15 and a few years later was showing at the RA. However, he adopted the name Claude Muncaster in 1922 to dissociate his career from that of his father. Muncaster’s primary choice of subject matter came from a genuine love of the sea. He made several long-distance sea voyages, including one around the Horn as a deckhand in the windjammer Olivebank in 1931, which he described in ‘Rolling Round the Horn’, published in 1933. Armed with a sketchbook, his aim was to be able to ‘paint ships and the sea with greater authority’. This he certainly achieved, perfectly capturing the limpid first light of morning over the Port of Aden, the choppy rain-grey waters of the Bay of Biscay and a streak of sunlight through gathering storm clouds at dusk in Exeter. He became an Associate of the Royal Watercolour Society in 1931 and was a founder member, and later President, of the Royal Society of Marine Artists. During the Second World War, Muncaster served in the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve (RNVR) from 1940-44, training as a navigator before going on to advise on the camouflage of ships, and also worked as an official war artist. In ‘Still Morning at Aden’ (1944) he depicts Allied warships in this safe anchorage in the Middle East; the back is stamped with Admiralty approval. In 1946-7 he was commissioned by the Queen to produce watercolours of the royal residences at Windsor, Sandringham and Balmoral; the Duke of Edinburgh, in a foreword to a biography of Muncaster, recalls looking at these and considering the artist’s ‘unerring instinct for a subject’, his sense of atmosphere. Other commissions included large panoramas of the Thames and of Bradford. His career also included work as an etcher, illustrator, writer, lecturer and broadcaster, and his paintings can be found in the Royal Academy, Tate, National Maritime Museum Cornwall, National Railway Museum and Royal Air Force Museum. Condition: generally good, few isolated spots to sky as can be seen in the magnified version of the picture. If you are interested email info@manningfineart.co.uk or call us on 07929 749056. -

David Roberts (1769 - 1864)
Citadel of Sidon - April 28th, 1839 (published 1943)
Lithograph with hand-colouring 23 x 35 cm (sheet size 17.5 x 24.5 cm) The Citadel of Sidon, or Sidon Sea Castle, was built by crusaders in the thirteenth century as a fortress of the holy land. This lithograph is part of David Roberts' series of views of the Holy Land, which he produced from sketches made during lengthy tours of the Near East in the 1830s. Egypt was much in vogue at this time, and travellers, collectors and lovers of antiquities were keen to buy works inspired by the East or depicting the great monuments of ancient Egypt; Roberts was more than happy to produce pictures on this lucrative theme. Queen Victoria was one of his 400 subscribers, and her set of lithographs is still held by the Royal Collection Trust. The lithographer Louis Haghe worked with Roberts to turn the original sketches into high-quality lithographs, which were then published in the 1840s by the printer F. G. Moon in London. David Roberts RA RBA was a Scottish painter known for his Orientalist pictures. He was elected as a Royal Academician in 1841. -
Pieter van den Keere (1571 - circa 1646) after John Speed (1551 or 1552 - 1629)
Map of Cambridgeshire (1627)
Engraving 8 x 12 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. This particular miniature edition of the 'Theatre' was published in miniature by George Humble in 1627, entitled 'England Wales Scotland and Ireland Described and Abridged With ye Historic Relation of things worthy memory from a farr larger Voulume. Done by John Speed.’ Speed's original map was likely engraved for this edition by Peter van den Keere. van den Keere's maps soon came to be known as "Miniature Speeds". 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. George Humble (1572 - 1640) was an English publisher, known for his publication of John Speed's 'The theatre of the empire of Great Britaine,' the first comprehensive atlas depicting the British Isles, and his later 'A prospect of the most famous parts of the World,' the first English world atlas. Pieter van den Keere was a Flemish engraver, publisher, and globe maker who worked in England and the Dutch Republic. Condition: generally very good; some age toning.

Leslie Macdonald "Max" Gill (1884 - 1947)
A Map of the Colne Valley Cloth District (1946)
Engraving with later hand-colouring 32 x 48 cm Signed in the plate and dated 1946. Produced for Huddersfield and District Woollen Export Group. Gill's vibrant and detailed map depicts the Colne Valley District. The Colne Valley was a loom-weaving area which played a significant role in the development of the Industrial Revolution when water-powered textile mills were brought in. Born in Brighton, Max Gill was the second son in a family of thirteen children; his elder brother was Eric Gill, the typographer and sculptor. Both Gills exhibited significant talent at a young age. Max Gill’s first map was made for a school map-drawing project following which he entered maps into competitions in boys’ magazines. In 1903 he moved to London as assistant to the ecclesiastical architects Sir Charles Nicholson and Hubert Corlette. By 1908 he had started his own architectural practice, but in 1909 Sir Edwin Lutyens commissioned Gill to paint a “wind dial” map for Nashdom, a large house in Buckinghamshire. The wind dial was set over the fireplace and attached to a weather vane on the roof, allowing the occupant to know the direction of the wind from the comfort of the house. He produced seven further wind dials including for Lutyens’s Lindisfarne Castle and for the Allhusen Room at Trinity College, Cambridge. Although Gill continued to practice as an architect, Frank Pick commissioned him to create seven pictorial maps for the Underground, the first being the famous 1913 ‘Wonderground Map of London Town.’ In 1917 he joined the Imperial War Graves Commission’s headstone design committee, designing the typeface and regimental badges. Gill’s memorials for the fallen in the First World War include for Balliol and Worcester Colleges and Christ Church in Oxford. During the 1920s and 30s Gill undertook many commercial commissions for advertising materials. The Empire Marketing Board and Shell-Mex as well as further maps for the Underground. He designed in 1922 the first diagrammatic map of the Underground which provided the foundation for Beck’s more famous map. By the 1930s his major works were murals. Those of the Arctic and Antarctic on the ceilings of the Scott Polar Research Institute in Cambridge are beautiful, but the most impressive is the map of the North Atlantic in the first-class dining room of the Queen Mary (maiden voyage: 1936, now moored at Long Beach, California). During the Second World War he created a series of propaganda posters for the Ministry of Information. Condition: very good. In new hand-finished frame.

Llangollen Bridge, Wales (early 19th century)
Pen, ink and monochrome watercolour 8 x 12 cm Llangollen Bridge is built across the River Dee at the North end of the high street of Llangollen in the county of Denbigshire in Wales. The Bridge is listed as one of the seven wonders of Wales and is Grade I listed. There has been a bridge across the Dee at Llangollen since at least 1284. Some historians believe that the bridge was constructed in the 1540s; there is evidence of sepulchral slabs within the bridge's masonry, indicating that it was rebuilt following the dissolution of Henry VIII's dissolution of the monasteries. We also have in stock an en-suite watercolour of the nearby Valle Crucis abbey, from which some of the bridge's stone might have been taken. Condition: Generally very good. Signed lower right. -
C.A. Hay
Valle Crucis Abbey, Wales (early 19th century)
Pen, ink and monochrome watercolour 8 x 12 cm Valle Crucis is a Cistercian abbey located in Llantysilio in Denbighshire, Wales. The abbey was built in 1201 by Madog ap Gruffydd Maelor, Prince of Powys Fadog. In 1537, at the height of Henry VIII's Dissolution of the Monasteries, Valle Crucis was dissolved and fell into disrepair. The abbey is now a ruin, though large parts of the original structure still survive. We also have in stock an en-suite watercolour of the nearby Llangollen Bridge; it is likely that some of the abbey's stone was used to build the bridge after the abbey had been dissolved. Condition: Generally very good. Signed lower right. -

Lettering Design
Watercolour 53 x 75 cm Examiner's mark 'M-' (likely 'lower merit') lower right within border. Signed lower right without border in pencil. A trainee architect's lettering design. It was crucial that an architectural draughtsman be skilled in depicting lettering which might appear on a building commission, and here is one of Clapham's stylish efforts, marked by an examiner. Condition: generally good, a few repaired very short edge tears not into image, with examiner's mark to bottom right.
