Louis Osman (1914-1996) Catalogue for May 1974 Exhibition at Canons Ashby, Northamptonshire
29.6x21.3cm (A4-sized) 24 pages plus card covers Staple bound Provenance: from the artist's estate Louis Osman (30 January 1914 - 11 April 1996) was an architect, artist, goldsmith, silversmith and medallist. Few people matched his creations as a goldsmith, and consequently he was chosen to make the crown for the Investiture of the Prince of Wales in 1969. Many of his other works are in public collections in the UK and worldwide. After Hele's school in Exeter he studied at the Bartlett School of Architecture - part of University College London - from 1931. Also attending the Slade, he left the Bartlett being awarded the top first, which brings with it the Donaldson Medal of the RIBA. Subsequently he trained with Sir Albert Richardson (who lived in a large Georgian house in Northamptonshire in which he refused to have electric light; his wife was endlessly patient with his eccentricities). Serving during the Second World War as a Major in the Intelligence Corps, he was a specialist in Air Photography and served on the Beach Reconnaissance Committee prior to the June 1944 Normandy 'D-Day' landings. Following the war he was busy as an architect, works including for Westminster Abbey, and Lincoln, Exeter, Ely and Lichfield Cathedrals. Staunton Harold Church in Ashby de la Zouch for the National Trust, and of course his own folly, the Grade I listed Elizabethan manor house, Canons Ashby in Northamptonshire - which was given to the National Trust in 1981 when Osman was not able to keep the tenancy any longer. At Canons Ashby he established a workshop and had a team of silversmiths and goldsmiths working for him. In 1974 he created the exhibition celebrated by this lavishly illustrated catalogue. His crown for the Investiture of the Prince of Wales was on display, together with many other items of his own creation, and also by other silversmiths such as Malcolm Green, Philip Noaks and Stephen Nunn, also acknowledging the work of Desmond Clenn-Murphy, Peter Musgrove and Christopher Philipson in his own works. In 1976 he made the gold enamelled casket that holds the copy of the Magna Carta on view in the United States Capitol, Washington, DC.

Keith Vaughan Male Nude
Ballpoint pen sketch 17 x 13 cm Born in 1912, Keith Vaughan was a British painter known for his modernist and semi-abstract depictions of the male figure. He was self-taught as an artist but during his time as a conscientious objector in the Second World War, he befriended the painters Graham Sutherland and John Minton. Through these contacts, he formed part of the neo-romantic circle of the immediate post-war period. Over time, Vaughan's idiosyncratic style evolved away from the group as he focussed on male nudes and groups, often rendered in a geometric yet lyrical manner. Vaughan was openly gay at a time when homosexuality was criminalised in Britain. As a result, his work often reflected themes of isolation and desire, capturing both the physical and emotional aspects of human existence. He continues to be celebrated today and his works are held in several major galleries, inlcuding the National Galleries of Scotland, the National Portrait Gallery, the Tate and the Victoria and Albert Museum. This sketch depicting a male nude was taken from Vaughan's 'Ischia Cheese & Grill' sketchbook. Together the drawings in the sketchbook record Vaughan's experimentalism with landscape, abstraction and notably his commitment to the human form. This collection was sold as part of Peter Adam's estate; Adam was not just a close friend of Vaughan but his executor, biographer and the curator of multiple exhibitions of his work after he died in 1977. This sketch represents the unique opportunity to own a small piece of Keith Vaughan's oeuvre as he continues to grow in popularity.

Cyril Kenneth Bird ‘Fougasse’ (1887 - 1965)
Jump for Them
Lithographic poster 30 x 22 cm Fougasse was a British cartoonist. He was art editor of Punch between 1937 and 1949, and subsequently editor until 1953. He is best known for his ‘Careless Talk Costs Lives’ series of posters, and the other posters for the Ministry of Information and London Transport. As the Second World War progressed, the Ministry of Information’s poster campaign had become less and less effective. There were posters instructing the population to save old clothes for rags, turn off the lights, save food, dig for victory, watch out for spies, and keep calm and carry on. With this instruction overload, the population had ceased paying attention to the posters. Fougasse noticed this, and offered his services unpaid to the Ministry of Information, with a view to bringing a touch of humour to the posters. His amusing designs with pithy captions, reminiscent of newspaper cartoons, helped to get the Ministry's messages across in a novel way.Fougasse's distinctive poster style, with the red border- as seen in this poster-was subsequently adopted by other Ministry artists. In this poster, taken from The Art of Refereeing, Fougasse depicts a man hurling a book in the direction of a scrum, drawing an intriguing analogy between sports and literary culture.Condition: backed to linen; generally excellent.

Cyril Power (1872 - 1951)
Christ's College, Cambridge
Etching 23 x 15 cm Cyril Power was an English artist. His father was the architect Edward William Power and encouraged him to practise architectural drawing. Power studied architecture and won the Royal Institute of British Architects' Sloane Medallion in 1900 for his design for an art school. He worked as an architect at the Ministry of Works and later lectured on architecture at Goldsmiths and what is now the Bartlett School of Architecture. His A History of English Mediaeval Architecture, a book of architectural illustrations and designs, was published in 1912. In 1918, Power met the artist Sybil Andrews, with whom he worked for two decades. He co-founded The Grosvenor School of Modern Art in 1922; he and Andrews attended Claude Flight's linocutting classes there. Linocut exhibitions followed at the Redfern Gallery and then further afield. Frank Pick, the Deputy Chairman of the Underground Electric Railways Company of London, commissioned Power and Andrews to design a series of posters for him after seeing their linocut work. In 1930 Power was elected member of the Royal Society of British Artists and established a studio with Andrews in Hammersmith close to the River Thames, a location which inspired many prints by both artists, most notably 'The Eight' by Power and 'Bringing in the Boat' by Sybil Andrews. Their first major joint exhibition was at the Redfern Gallery in 1933 which consisted of linocuts and monotypes. Condition: very good; fractional toning to paper.

Charles E Brown (1896 - 1982)
Wellington Bomber
Silver gelatin photograph 20 x 25 cm The Vickers Wellington was a British twin-engined, long-range medium bomber. It was designed during the mid-1930s at Brooklands in Weybridge, Surrey. Led by Vickers-Armstrongs’ chief designer Rex Pierson; a key feature of the aircraft is its geodetic airframe fuselage structure, which was principally designed by Barnes Wallis. Development had been started in response to Air Ministry Specification B.9/32, issued in the middle of 1932, for a bomber for the Royal Air Force. This specification called for a twin-engined day bomber capable of delivering higher performance than any previous design. Other aircraft developed to the same specification include the Armstrong Whitworth Whitley and the Handley Page Hampden. During the development process, performance requirements such as for the tare weight changed substantially, and the engine used was not the one originally intended. The Wellington was used as a night bomber in the early years of the Second World War, performing as one of the principal bombers used by Bomber Command. During 1943, it started to be superseded as a bomber by the larger four-engined “heavies” such as the Avro Lancaster. The Wellington continued to serve throughout the war in other duties, particularly as an anti-submarine aircraft. It holds the distinction of having been the only British bomber that was produced for the duration of the war, and of having been produced in a greater quantity than any other British-built bomber. The Wellington remained as first-line equipment when the war ended, although it had been increasingly relegated to secondary roles. The Wellington was one of two bombers named after Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington, the other being the Vickers Wellesley. A larger heavy bomber aircraft designed to Specification B.1/35, the Vickers Warwick, was developed in parallel with the Wellington; the two aircraft shared around 85% of their structural components. Many elements of the Wellington were also re-used in a civil derivative, the Vickers VC.1 Viking. Leslie Carr was a painter and poster designer from London. He served in the Tank Corps in the First World War and then became a professional artist, mainly producing maritime and architectural scenes. He designed posters for Southern Railway, the London and North Eastern Railway, and British Railways (among others).

David Loggan (1634 - 1692)
Frontispiece to the Oxonia Illustrata (1675)
Engraving 38 x 24 cm The intricately engraved frontispiece to Loggan's 'Oxonia Illustrata', featuring cherubs bearing the volume's title on a banner and Minerva, goddess of wisdom, sitting before a panorama of Oxford's resplendent architecture. David Loggan's view of Oxford's medieval Divinity School, which was once the beating heart of theological studies at the University. Of particular interest here is the trompe l'oeil scroll of torn paper which frames the view. 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 (born 1956) has produced a highly-acclaimed series of etchings which bring Loggan’s original vision up to date. Condition: trimmed within platemark and mounted to board, otherwise in very good condition. If you are interested, please email info@manningfineart.co.uk or call us on 07929 749056.

Margaret Souttar (1914 - 1987)
Trinity Hall, Cambridge IV
Acrylic paint 62 x 92 cm Signed lower right. Souttar was a Scottish painter and printmaker known for her images of town- and cityscapes. In the early 1960s, she was commissioned to produce a series of prints of the Cambridge colleges. She captures the modernity and optimism of 1960s Cambridge; the fact that a female artist was commissioned to create the prints reflects the changing attitudes of the University towards women. Trinity Hall was one of the first Cambridge colleges to admit women as students – it did not do so until 1976. Provenance: the artist's studio sale. Condition: generally very good; on thin paper - some crinkling to paper as a result of being painted. Further sketch to reverse.

Lionel Edwards (1878 - 1966)
The Berkeley Hunt - Near Rockhampton (1925)
Lithograph 34 x 51 cm Signed in plate lower right. In original 3/4" black frame. A Lionel Edwards lithograph depicting the Berkeley - part of the artist's 1925 'Hunting Countries' series. The yellow coats with green collars and the running fox on the lapel are worn by the Masters and Hunt Staff and are unique in hunting circles, representing the outdoor livery of the Berkeley family; the ladies' colours of navy and maroon represent the indoor livery. The Berkeley is the oldest pack in the country and is one of the very few that are still family owned. The Fifth Earl of Berkeley could hunt his hounds from Berkeley Castle to Berkeley Square in London and had six kennels along the route. The season would start in Berkeley and progress to each of his kennels to London and then in stages back again to Gloucestershire. The present kennels date from the early 18th century and are home to around 90 hounds. Lionel Edwards was a British artist who specialised in pictures of country life, particularly horses, and provided illustrations for Country Life. He is best known for his hunting scenes but also painted pictures of horse racing, shooting and fishing. Condition: print generally good; the odd tiny spot in top left area.

William Matthison (1853-1926)
New College, Oxford: Front Quad
Watercolour 35 x 52 cm Signed lower right. A charming watercolour of New College's Front Quad complete with members of the college in academic dress, wandering birds, and a gardener mowing the grass. William of Wykeham, who founded New College in 1379, was an ambitious builder. His vision for the college was of a Chapel, Hall, Library, and rooms for tutors and students to work and live in, all of which would be built around a quadrangle. This was the first time a college had been set in this way, and it became a model for colleges worldwide. Matthison was born near Birmingham and attended King Edward’s School in the city. He learnt drawing at the Birmingham Central School of Art and then became a pupil of Birmingham artist Edward Watson. He became a professional artist in 1875 and moved to Oxfordshire a few years after; this was where he had the opportunity to produce many of the Oxford views for which he is known today. In 1902 he moved to Park Town in Oxford and was commissioned by Robert Peel to paint more than seventy views of the University of Oxford, which were subsequently made into postcards. Priced at seven for a shilling, they were only available from E Cross of Pembroke Street (a long-since closed business). Raphael Tuck & Sons also commissioned him to produce postcard scenes of Cambridge. Matthison’s views of Oxford were later printed in Fifty Watercolour Drawings of Oxford, published in 1912 by Alden & Co. Condition: generally very good; a few spots to sky.

Walter Hoyle (1922 - 2000)
King's College, Cambridge (Cambridge Series 1956 - 66)
Linocut 61 x 80 cm Numbered 37/75 lower left, titled below, marked as artist's proof, and signed lower right, all in pencil. A blue- and grey-hued linocut of King's. A version of this print, owned by the Government Art Collection, hangs in the British Embassy in Tunis. Hoyle trained at Beckenham School of Art and the Royal College of Art. At the latter he was strongly influenced by Edward Bawden, one of Britain’s greatest linocut printers. Bawden had been commissioned by the 1951 Festival of Britain to produce a mural for the South Bank, and chose Hoyle to assist on account of his great talent. Hoyle moved to Great Bardfield in Essex, becoming a part of the Great Bardfield group of artists; diverse in style, they created figurative work, in stark contrast to the abstract art of the St Ives artists at the opposite end of the country. Hoyle taught at St Martin’s School of Art from 1951-60, the Central School of Arts and Crafts from 1960-64, and the Cambridge School of Art from 1964-1985, during which time he launched Cambridge Print Editions. His work is held in the collections of the Tate Gallery, the Victoria and Albert Museum, The British Museum, Kettle’s Garden and the Fry Art Gallery. Provenance: ex the Arthur Andersen collection.

Cyril Kenneth Bird ‘Fougasse’ (1887 - 1965)
Careless Talk Costs Lives (circa 1940)
Lithographic poster 32 x 20 cm (12.5 x 8 in) Version printed on thinner paper. Fougasse was a British cartoonist. He was art editor of Punch between 1937 and 1949, and subsequently editor until 1953. He is best known for his ‘Careless Talk Costs Lives’ series of posters, and the other posters for the Ministry of Information and London Transport. As the Second World War progressed, the Ministry of Information’s poster campaign had become less and less effective. There were posters instructing the population to save old clothes for rags, turn off the lights, save food, dig for victory, watch out for spies, and keep calm and carry on. With this instruction overload, the population had ceased paying attention to the posters. Fougasse noticed this, and offered his services unpaid to the Ministry of Information, with a view to bringing a touch of humour to the posters. His amusing designs with pithy captions, reminiscent of newspaper cartoons, helped to get the Ministry's messages across in a novel way. Fougasse's distinctive poster style, with the red border, was subsequently adopted by other Ministry artists.

Richard Beer (1928 - 2017)
Volterra
Etching and aquatint 60 x 45 cm Titled and numbered 4/70 lower left, and signed lower right, both in pencil. Beer's yellow-hued view of Volterra, a mountain town in Tuscany. Overseen by the beating Italian sun, a church perches atop a hill marked by trees and rocky outcrops. Born in London in 1928, just too late to serve in the Second World War, Richard Beer studied between 1945 - 1950 at the Slade School. Subsequently, a French Government scholarship allowed him to spend time in Paris at Atelier 17, working under Stanley William Hayter (1901 - 1988), one of the most significant print makers of the 20th Century – having spent the War in New York, advising as a camofleur, Hayter only returned to Paris in 1950. Subsequently Beer studied at the École des Beaux Arts, Paris. Working for John Cranko, choreographer for the Royal Ballet, Beer designed the sets and costumes for his The Lady and the Fool at Covent Garden, subsequently working for him following his move in 1961 to Stuttgart Ballet. Additionally he produced book illustrations and designed book jackets. Beer later taught print-making at the Chelsea School of Art, where he was a popular teacher. Probably his greatest work was a collaboration with John Betjeman to produce a portfolio of prints of ten Wren Churches in the City for Editions Alecto, copies of which are in The Government Art Collection. That collection contains a total of 54 prints by Beer, and the Tate Gallery’s collection holds seven. His Oxford series was also produced for Editions Alecto as was a series of predominantly architectural views in Southern Europe. Most of his prints are of architectural subjects.

Joseph Constantine Stadler (1755 - 1828) after William Westall (1781 - 1850)
Jesus College, Cambridge, from the Close (1815)
Hand-coloured aquatint 24 x 29.5 cm Published by Rudolph Ackermann (1764 - 1834). An engraving of Jesus College, foregrounded by trees, the River Cam, and grazing cattle. Joseph Constantine Stadler was a prolific German émigré engraver of images after his contemporaries - here, 18th-century English landscape painter and diarist Joseph Farington. Stadler''s engravings are wide-ranging in subject matter and include landscapes, seascapes and portraits, as well as military, sporting and decorative subjects. Stadler was employed by the leading print publisher of the time, John Boydell. Stadler lived in Knightsbridge when he died at the age of 73. William Westall was a British landscape artist. He was born in Hertford and enrolled at the Royal Academy schools in 1799. He later became the draughtsman for a voyage to Australia and the South Seas. After being shipwrecked, he travelled to Canton in China and to India, staying in Bombay for several months. He returned to England in 1805 but later set off for Madeira and Jamaica. He became a member of the Society of Painters in Water Colours (1811) and an associate of the Academy (1812). Following a mental breakdown, he regularly visited the Lake District and published ‘Views of the Valley and Vale of Keswick’ (1820). His series of aquatints of the Thames, the great universities, and England's public schools for Ackermann are among his most popular works. 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.

Alan Sorrell (1904 - 1974)
Pembroke College, View from the North Quadrangle (1966)
Lithograph 36 x 50 cm A lithograph of Pembroke's North Quad, from a drawing by Alan Sorrell. The artist's striking use of perspective and nebulously sketched figures make it a good example of Sorrell's style.

The almanac traditionally included engravings or lithographs of the University and information about the upcoming year. Other almanac artists have included James Basire, Michael Burghers, J. M. W. Turner, and John Piper. Alan Ernest Sorrell was an English artist and writer best remembered for his archaeological illustrations, particularly his detailed reconstructions of Roman Britain. Sorrell trained at the Southend municipal school of art and, after a brief spell as a commercial artist in London, he attended the Royal College of Art between 1924 and 1927. He was a Senior Assistant Instructor of Drawing there between 1931 and 1939, and again between 1946 and 1948. In 1937 he had been elected a member of the Royal Watercolour Society, and during the war served as a camofleur. After the war, Sorrell's archaeological and architectural work became their focus.

Pieter van der Aa (1659-1733), after David Loggan (1634–1692)
New College, Oxford (1727)
Engraving 12 x 16 cm An eighteenth-century view of Le College Neuf (New College), engraved by Pieter van der Aa after David Loggan, the noted engraver, draughtsman, and painter. Founded in 1379 by William of Wykeham, New College is one of the oldest colleges at the university and was the first to admit undergraduate students. Architecturally, New College was innovative in its design, in that it was all planned around an enclosed quadrangle (finished 1386). This was the first quadrangle of its type, though it has since become one of the defining features of colleges across Oxford and Cambridge. Pieter van der Aa of Leiden was a Dutch publisher best known for preparing maps and atlases, though he also printed editions of foreign bestsellers and illustrated volumes. He is noted for the many engravings he produced after David Loggan's series of Oxford and Cambridge colleges and costumes. In 1727 Van Der Aa illustrated "Les Delices de la Grande Bretagne & de L'Irelande" by James Beeverell, the book in which this engraving appears. Condition: a good impression.

Sir Eduardo Paolozzi CBE RA (1924-2005)
'Foot of a Statue'
Plaster 9 x 19 x 13 cm Paolozzi’s fascination with anatomy, machine parts, and the idiom of classical statuary is evident in his modernist sculptural forms. Foot of a Statue suggests the foot of an ancient Colossus - severed from the rest of the body, it becomes a symbol of fragmentation, of a civilisation’s decline. Sir Eduardo Luigi Paolozzi CBE RA was a Scottish artist, known for his sculpture and graphic works. He is widely considered to be one of the pioneers of pop art. Paolozzi studied at the Edinburgh College of Art in 1943, briefly at Saint Martin's School of Art in 1944, and then at the Slade School of Fine Art at University College London from 1944 to 1947, after which he worked in Paris. While in Paris from 1947 to 1949, Paolozzi became acquainted with Alberto Giacometti, Jean Arp, Constantin Brâncuși, Georges Braque and Fernand Léger. This period became an important influence for his later work. For example, the influence of Giacometti and many of the original Surrealists he met in Paris can be felt in the group of lost-wax sculptures made by Paolozzi in the mid-1950s. Their surfaces, studded with found objects and machine parts, were to gain him recognition. He taught sculpture and ceramics at several institutions, including the Hochschule für bildende Künste Hamburg (1960–62), University of California, Berkeley (in 1968) and at the Royal College of Art. Paolozzi had a long association with Germany, having worked in Berlin from 1974 as part of the Berlin Artist Programme of the German Academic Exchange Programme. He was a professor at the Fachhochschule in Cologne from 1977 to 1981, and later taught sculpture at the Akademie der Bildenden Künste in Munich. Paolozzi was fond of Munich and many of his works and concept plans were developed in a studio he kept there, including the mosaics of the Tottenham Court Road Station in London. He took a stab at industrial design in the 1970s with a 500-piece run of the upscale Suomi tableware by Timo Sarpaneva that Paolozzi decorated for the German Rosenthal porcelain maker's Studio Linie.

Hugh Casson (1910 - 1999)
Magdalene College, Cambridge, First Court
Signed in pencil, and numbered from the limited edition of 500. 34x25cm From Casson’s ever-popular Oxford and Cambridge series of prints. Sir Hugh Casson was educated at Eastbourne College; St John’s College, Cambridge; and the Bartlett School of Architecture. Trained in the 1930s in the early modernist style, he taught at the Cambridge School of Architecture. After employment as a camoufleur during World War 2 by the Air Ministry, in 1948 he was appointed as director of architecture for the Festival of Britain. A close friend of the Royal Family, he undertook designs for the 1953 coronation, designed the interior of the Royal Yacht Britannia (“The overall idea was to give the impression of a country house at sea”), and taught the Prince of Wales to paint in watercolours. Amongst his architectural achievements are the Elephant House at London Zoo, the 1978 redevelopment of Bristol Docks, the Raised Faculty Building for The University of Cambridge, and a building for the Royal College of Art.

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' (c. 1708). The contemporary artist Andrew Ingamells (b.1956) has produced a highly-acclaimed series of etchings which bring Loggan’s original vision up to date.

Cyril Kenneth Bird ‘Fougasse’ (British, 1887-1965) Careless Talk Costs Lives
Lithographic poster c.1940 32 x 20 cm (12.5 x 8 in) The cartoonist Fougasse, was a British cartoonist who was art editor of Punch 1937-1949, and subsequently editor until 1953. He is best known for his ‘Careless Talk Costs Lives’ series of posters, and the other posters both for the Ministry of Information, London Underground and others. The Ministry of Information’s wartime poster campaign was soon regarded as dull and uninspiring on account of its hectoring messages such as ‘Keep Calm and Carry On.’ There were posters telling the population how to conduct virtually every minute of their daily lives – for instance by saving old clothes for rags, turning off the lights, saving food, digging for victory, or watching out for spies. With this instruction overload the population ceased paying attention to the posters, so Fougasse offered his services to the Ministry of Information unpaid, with a view to bringing a touch of humour to serious messages. An amusing picture and a pithy caption helped to get the message across to the reader. His distinctive style, with the red border, was adopted by other Ministry artists.

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. -

Richard Beer (1928-2017) Oxford Spires - All Souls College and Radcliffe Camera
Limited edition coloured etching signed in pencil and numbered 75/150. 62x44cm Born in London in 1928, just too late to serve in World War II, Richard Beer studied between 1945-1950 at the Slade School. Subsequently, a French Government scholarship allowed him to spend time in Paris at Atelier 17, working under Stanley William Hayter (1901-1988), one of the most significant print makers of the 20th Century – having spent the War in New York, advising as a camofleur, Hayter only returned to Paris in 1950. Subsequently Beer studied at the École des Beaux Arts, Paris. Working for John Cranko, choreographer for the Royal Ballet, Beer designed the sets and costumes for his The Lady and the Fool at Covent Garden, subsequently working for him following his move in 1961 to Stuttgart Ballet. Additionally he produced book illustrations and designed book jackets. Richard Beer taught print-making at the Chelsea School of Art where he was a popular teacher. Probably his greatest work was a collaboration with John Betjeman to produce a portfolio of prints of ten Wren Churches in the City for Editions Alecto, copies of which are in The Government Art Collection. That collection contains a total of 54 prints by Beer, and the Tate Gallery’s collection holds seven. His Oxford series was also produced for Editions Alecto, as was a series of predominantly architectural views in Southern Europe. Most of his prints are of architectural subjects, where he explores the use of colour in interesting fashion. If you are interested email info@manningfineart.co.uk or call us on 07929 749056.

Clifford Ellis (1907-1985) Swallow
16x25cm Watercolour and pencil Provenance: the family of the artist, by descent. Born in Bognor in Sussex and trained at St Martin’s School of Art and Regent Street Polytechnic, Ellis was a graphic artist and illustrator who is best known for the posters he produced for London Transport during the 1930s. He generally collaborated with his wife Rosemary – whom he married in 1931 – on their posters. The General Post Office, Shell, and The Empire Marketing Board were also clients for their posters. They signed their posters C&RE, their initials being in alphabetical order and they are readily recognisable by their ebullient use of colour and form. Employed during the war as a camoufleur, along with so many other artists, Clifford was also an official war artist, serving with the Grenadier Guards. Rosemary, meanwhile, was an artist for the Recording Britain project. Following the war they trained art teachers at Bath Academy of Art. They also designed a series of nearly one hundred book jackets for Collins New Naturalist series, published between 1945 and 1982 and were always fascinated by animals and natural history, as with this sketch.

Dig for Victory over Want World War II public information
11x18cm for His Majesty's Stationery Office HMSO On gummed paper Printed on gummed paper, this was designed to be widely propagated, so that the public information message would not get lost. With food having to be shipped over the U-Boat infested Atlantic putting sailors' lives and ships at risk, every scrap of food that could be grown at home saved lives and allowed munitions to be transported instead. Therefore the Government started a large public information campaign to Dig for Victory - encouraging people to dig up their gardens and grow food.

45x58cm Original Vintage Lithographic poster Published by Pictorial Maps Limited, Kerry Lee's own company This edition of the map was produced around 1950, depicting the historical centre of Cambridge and 20 Cambridge colleges around the edges with their founders.

Educated at Reading Schools of Arts and Science, the Slade and the Sorbonne in Paris, he subsequently assisted his step-father, an architect named Mr Harvey, as draftsman. Following the Depression Lee set up 'Associated Artists' at Blandford Studios off Baker Street, with a group of other commercial artists. During World War 2 he was based in Hertfordshire creating detailed cut-away drawings of German aircraft, and after the war - still at Blandford Studios - published a series of pictorial maps, both those for British Rail and also his own publications. -

A. E. Halliwell (1905-1987) Hendon Air Display 'Loop the Loop' Gouache
26 x 32 cm 1928 Inscribed 'rough' to the lower right and stamped to reverse A.E. Halliwell Provenance: Family of the artist A.E. Halliwell (1905–1986) was a British artist, illustrator, and designer best known for his vibrant poster designs created for British railway companies during the mid-20th century. Born in Southport, Halliwell developed a strong foundation in art and design early in life. He studied at the Southport School of Art from 1923 to 1926 before graduating to the Royal College of Art in London and subsequently practising as a professional designer from the 1930s. Following his studies, Halliwell married Doris Doyle in Strood Kent, and went on to have a significant teaching career himself, most notably as a lecturer at the Central School of Arts and Crafts (later part of Central Saint Martins), where he influenced a new generation of designers and illustrators. Halliwell is perhaps best remembered for his vibrant and engaging poster designs created for British railway companies during the 1930s. His work was characterised by a bright, graphic style that balanced charm with clarity, often depicting idealised scenes of British holiday destinations—from sunny seaside towns to tranquil countryside vistas. Beyond posters, his artistic output included book illustration, commercial design, and stage costume sketches, showcasing his versatility across mediums. His posters continue to remain enduring symbols of a golden age of British travel and design and are displayed in major collections including the London Transport Museum and the V & A. With bold curves and crisp, minimalist style, this artwork captures the daring loop-the-loop of an aircraft against a sunlit sky. Both functional and artistic, the poster exemplifies the era’s art deco fusion of design and public service messaging.

J. C. Kim Rainbow Prism
20 x 25 cm 1946 Provenance: Family of A. E. Halliwell Little is known about J. C. Kim beyond the fact that he studied under A E Halliwell, though the fact that Halliwell collected this painting suggests that he thought highly of his student. Calling to mind Pink Floyd's later iconic album cover, this painting features a prism refracting white starlight into a multicolour rainbow of light. The contrast between the monochrome black, grey and white palette and the shock of rainbow colour is striking, leaving a striking impression on the viewer.
