Hugh Casson (1910 - 1999)
Caius Court, Gonville and Caius College (1992)
Lithograph 31 x 44 cm Signed and numbered 358/500, both in pencil. Casson's depiction of Gonville and Caius, with sun slanting into the 16th-century Caius Court. Members of the college stroll through the court. 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 young Charles III 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. He published a number of illustrated books, of which Casson’s Oxford and Casson’s Cambridge are probably the best known. A limited edition series of prints was produced from the paintings.

Jane Gray (b.1931)
The Worshipful Society of Apothecaries, Design for Stained Glass Millennium Window (1999)
Watercolour 25 x 13.5 cmSigned.
The Worshipful Society of Apothecaries was founded in 1617, after breaking away from the Grocers’ Company (founded 1345). The Society were granted a royal charter by James I, and, throughout the remainder of the 17th century, challenged the College of Physicians monopoly on practicing medicine. In 1704, the House of Lords overturned a ruling of the Queen’s Bench that gave apothecaries the right to practice medicine. Apothecaries, therefore, may be viewed as the forerunners of present-day general (medical) practitioners or family physicians. Gray’s design for this 2000 memorial window, in the Apothecaries Hall in Blackfriars, London, features the names and illustrations of several medicinal plants, including Belladonna, Opium, Digitalis, Oenothara, Primrose, Cowslip, Nasturtium, Camomile, and Marigold.
Provenance: the artist’s studio sale. Condition: very good. If you are interested, please email info@manningfineart.co.uk or call us on 07929 749056. For other works by Jane Gray and more information about her, please click here. -

Every small part of the plane has undergone stringent inspection. "Ref number Y7119 Topical Press 2/9/42" There is nothing new in the world, a pretty girl always captures the attention of the photographer.

Tom Carr (1909-1999)
Braes of Derwent Hunt
Pencil drawing 25 x 22 cm Thomas Carr OBE was an Irish artist. He was associated with the Euston Road School in the 1930s and had a long career as a painter of domestic scenes and landscapes. He studied at the Slade School of Art before moving to Italy to spend a year in Settignano, near Florence. Upon his return to London, Carr established himself as a painter and was exhibited at various well-known galleries of the time, including Zwemmer Gallery and Storran Gallery. Carr enjoyed success throughout his career and despite having settled in Newcastle, County Down in 1939, he regularly exhibited at the Royal Academy and was a member of the Royal Ulster Academy, the New English Art Club, the Royal Watercolour Society. Carr was awarded the MBE in 1974 and received an OBE in 1993 for his services to art in Northern Ireland. This pencil drawing is likely a study for one of his paintings of the Braes of Derwent Hunt, and therefore occupies a unique place in his oeuvre, showing the artistic processes behind his work. -

When he arrived at the Port of London, he had only £5 to his name. His first job was an illustrator for J Lyons & Co; his greatest work there was to decorate the directors’ dining room as an aircraft interior.
