PROFESSOR SIR FREDERICK EDWARD WARNER (1910-2010) Like many of the well-known delftware collectors and academics that predeceased him, Sir Frederick Edward Warner was an intelligent, spirited man with a keen scientific brain.

Sir Frederick, always known as Ned, was born in St Pancras in March 1910 and educated at Wanstead National School and Bancrofts School in Essex. He graduated in chemistry from University College London in 1931 and soon returned to carry out a post graduate diploma in chemical engineering.

At his first job at a chemical works in East Stratford, Sir Frederick noticed the odd effects that chemical vapours were having on his colleagues, who were later diagnosed with methylation. This fuelled in him a life-long interest in risk assessment and ensuring the health and safety of people working and living in high risk areas – an interest that was to see him serve on many future government committees and important international projects.

After several jobs for other chemical engineering companies, Sir Frederick established his own firm of Cremer and Warner in 1956 with his friend, Herbert Cremer. The firm worked internationally, focusing on problem-solving at largescale chemical production plants and on the issues of air and water pollution.

Hugely ahead of his time, Sir Frederick was particularly pleased with the work his company undertook on understanding the flow of the River Thames and local sewage outputs; work which resulted in a significant improvement in the river’s water quality, leading to the return of migratory salmon and sea-trout, which had been absent since the 19th century.

Sir Ned Warner by D.G. Herbert depicted with one of the vases in lot 104.

During his long career as a chemical engineer, Warner was a founding member of the Royal Academy of Engineering and was the longest-serving member of the Institute of Chemical Engineers, which he joined in 1936. He was knighted in 1968 for his services to chemical engineering, and he was awarded the Leverhulme Medal in 1978 and the Buchanan Medal in 1982, the latter “for his important role in reducing pollution of the River Thames”.

At the age of 76 Sir Frederick bravely led a team of scientists into the nuclear fallout zone at Chernobyl, following the disaster in April 1986. What he saw inspired him to create a permanent task force of chemical experts (Volunteers for Ionising Radiation) who would be prepared to enter dangerous situations and carry out essential analysis. Disturbed by the deaths of 31 young Soviet soldiers and firefighters at Chernobyl, he insisted on the volunteers being over the age of 65, as they were proven to be more tolerant of exposure and had, in his words, less to lose.

Sir Frederick’s interest in delftware appears to have started in the early 1950s, with his catalogue recording a number of purchases in Bethnal Green in 1952.

However, the collection began in earnest in the 1960s when, alongside his second wife, Barbara, he began buying principally from the London auction houses. Many pieces in the collection were sourced from the sales of important named collections such as those of Louis Lucian Lipski, Sir Gilbert Mellor, and Professor Frederic Horace Garner, the latter a fellow chemical engineer.

The collection spans three centuries – the earliest piece being a London delftware ‘Fecundity’ dish dated 1638, one of the earliest dated examples of this type of ware and illustrated in Michael Archer and Louis Lipski’s book on Dated English Delftware. Sir Frederick’s records indicate that this was acquired from Christie’s in 1975 for the sum of 500 guineas.

The whole collection was on permanent display in the Warners’ home in Nottinghamshire, and it is clear from the catalogue that Sir Frederick bought with an eye to the aesthetic as well as with an aim of acquiring different examples of shapes and decoration. This is particularly evidenced in his blue dash chargers, which show the differences in depictions of the same subjects of tulips and of The Temptation.

It has been a joy and privilege to put this catalogue together and to handle objects that, over the last seventy years, have in some cases formed part of the knowledge and understanding of some our most notable ceramic historians. It is Sir Frederick’s family’s wish that the objects from his collection go on to be loved and appreciated by collectors as enthusiastic as himself.

Sir Frederick & Lady Warner.

A CONSENSUS OF COLLECTORS Professor Frederic Horace Garner, OBE (1893-1964) Frederic H Garner was, like Sir Frederick Warner, a chemical engineer of some renown. Coming from a poor background, he won a scholarship to the University of Birmingham and then went on to America, obtaining his PhD at the Mellon Institute of Industrial Research in 1921.

Between 1935 and 1942 he was Director of Research at the Esso European Laboratories, and in 1942 was appointed first Professor of Chemical Engineering at the University of Birmingham.

Teaching then became his focus and although he served on a number of government committees he remained dedicated to his students and to the world of academia.

His interest in delftware seems to have begun at a relatively young age, and he wrote his first published article on the subject in 1937. During and after the Second World War he put together a collection of sherds from sites in Lambeth that had become accessible owing to bombings. From these sherds he taught himself a considerable amount about the production methods, form and decoration of English delftware, and his research led to a book, English Delftware published in 1948, which was one of the first truly academic reference works on the subject. Ever the teacher, Garner was eager to share his knowledge with similarly keen collectors and Oliver van Oss wrote in his obituary, “No young collector asked his advice in vain and the first contact was soon followed by an invitation to the house in Selly Park to see his collection.”

A few objects from his collection, and the excavated sherds from Lambeth, were bequeathed to the Victoria and Albert Museum, where he was a regular visitor. The rest was dispersed in three sales at Sotheby’s on 6th October 1964, and 2nd March and 1st June 1965.

See lots: 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11, 14, 16, 17, 22, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 35, 36, 37, 38, 47, 52, 53, 54, 55, 84, 86, 88, 91, 92, 95, 110, 117, 122, 127, 131, 141, 142, 144 and 152.

Louis Lucian Lipski (1914-1979) Polish born Lipski trained as an architect in Warsaw, the son of a chemist, and inherited his love of art from his mother. When war broke out in 1939 he was on holiday in England and was unable to return to Poland. Putting his training to good use, he started work on repairing bombed out houses and developed an interest in the delftware tiles that he sometimes rescued from damaged fireplaces. From here his fascination with English delftware grew and although tiles remained his first love, he amassed a collection of considerable scope and enormity.

Along with Garner and Dr James Glaisher, he had a fascination with objects bearing dates and in his later life put together a large collection of photographs and descriptions of dated examples. He died before the book could be published, but the job was taken over by Michael Archer and the publication remains a key reference work for anybody interested in the subject.

In common with Garner, Lipski had an academic as well as an aesthetic interest in his subject, and carried out a number of excavations at Wincanton, retaining a vast amount of sherds in his garage in north London. The collection itself was kept predominantly in his flat and in his Delftware book Michael Archer describes how, “No visitor to his austere bachelor flat in Maida Vale could help being overpowered by the sheer number of pieces he owned…. The walls were crowded with Blue-dash chargers, while one whole side of the drawing room was lined with glazed shelves where the choicest objects were set out.”

Excepting a few bequests, the collection was sold posthumously at Sotheby’s on 10th March and 17th November 1981, and 1st March 1983.

See lots: 3, 6, 17, 18, 30, 37, 39, 45, 77, 79, 93, 114, 118, 131, 143, 144, 148 and 159.

Mrs G I Cameron Sadly, little can be discovered regarding Mrs Cameron, whose collection was posthumously sold at Christie’s on 2nd June 1975.

See lots: 7, 15, 19, 24, 37, 39, 115 and 125.

Sir Gilbert Mellor, KBE, CB, CMG, KC, Chevalier of the Legion of Honour (1872-1947) Sir Gilbert Mellor was educated at Charterhouse and Trinity Hall, Cambridge and was called to the Bar by the Inner Temple in 1900. He retired from the legal branch of the War Office in 1932 and settled in Kent, where he became a Justice of the Peace. He was an early member of the English Ceramic Circle and was a keen collector from the early 1920s. He had a particular interest in Bristol delftware and wrote a number of articles on the subject.

His collection was bequeathed to the Victoria and Albert Museum on his death in April 1947, and 22 pieces were accepted. His wife offered a selection to the British Museum and the rest was dispersed after her death in three sales at Christie’s on 29th March, 5th April and 26th April 1965.

See lots: 2, 8, 9, 11, 14, 15, 16, 31, 32, 33, 34, 46, 48, 52, 56, 58, 86, 90, 108, 116, 117, 130 and 133.

Herbert Reginald Pomeroy Lomas (1860-1941) A linguist, musician, traveller and antique collector, Lomas was also a very astute businessman and successfully ran the largest hotel in Buxton for a number of years. The Buxton Hydro was a place for rest and recuperation using the fashionable hydrotherapy, but Lomas later changed the hotel’s name to Spa Hotel. When questioned by a local reporter as to the reason for the change, he replied, “The number of invalids we get here now is small….

Women nowadays are out playing games and trying to imitate men; they have no time to be ill.”

Described as a rather lonely and slender figure, keen and pedantic but strictly just, Lomas was a generous benefactor as well as a wealthy entrepreneur. He established the farming hamlet of Pomeroy and, in 1904, took over the running of Hargreaves & Son who ran two “china” shops in Buxton at the turn of the 20th century. One of the shops is still in existence today.

A keen collector of glass as well as pottery, Mr Lomas made a number of bequests to museums including his local Buxton Museum and Art Gallery and the British Museum.

See lot 102.

Charles J Lomax Charles Lomax was a civil engineer and the author of Quaint Old English Pottery, published in 1909. He amassed a fine collection of 17th and 18th century English pottery, including slipwares and creamwares as well as delftware. Alongside other collectors in the Manchester area he was key in organising two important exhibitions of English pottery at the Whitworth Institute in 1911-12 and 1915.

His collection was dispersed in two sales at Sotheby’s on 7th April 1937 and 3rd May 1940.

A number of pieces from his collection are held at museums including the Victoria and Albert Museum and the British Museum.

See lot 66.

Major E R W Robinson, MC Major Robinson, a descendant of Sir Henry Tate, the sugar merchant and philanthropist who established the Tate Gallery in 1897, named his collection of delftware after the house he shared with his wife, Prudence, in Cirencester.

Their collection was sold at Sotheby’s on 15th May 1979.

See lot 107.

Arthur Hurst (1857-1940) Arthur Hurst was educated at Malvern College and King’s College, London, and worked as a civil engineer for the North Eastern Railway of York. Between 1917 and 1940 he was honorary keeper of ceramics at the Yorkshire Philosophical Society, an organisation of which he was a member for over 50 years.

He was a keen collector of pottery, porcelain, enamels, silver and pictures; he had an especial interest in Yorkshire Pottery and wrote widely on Leeds creamware. On his death a large part of his collection was distributed between the Yorkshire Museum, the Victorian and Albert Museum and the British Museum. The rest was dispersed in three sales at Sotheby’s on 20th June and 28th November 1940, and 30th January 1941.

See lots: 5 and 29.

The CITES Regulations may be found at www.defra.gov.uk/ahvla-en/imports-exports/cites/ ARTIST’S RESALE RIGHT / DROIT DE SUITE Lots marked with a ‡ symbol are potentially subject to a levy.

Droit de Suite is a royalty payable to a qualifying artist or the artist’s heirs each time a work is resold during the artist’s lifetime and up to a period of 70 years after the artist’s death.

Royalties are calculated on a sliding percentage scale based on the hammer price excluding the buyer’s premium. The royalty does not apply to lots selling below the sterling equivalent of €1,000 and the maximum royalty payable on any single lot is the sterling equivalent of €10,000.

Droit de Suite, which is not subject to VAT, will be added to the buyer’s purchase price and then passed on to the relevant collecting agency.

Royalties for Droit de Suite are as follows: 4% Up to €50,000 3% €50,000.01 - 200,000 1% €200,000.01 - 350,000 0.5% €350,000.01 - 500,000 0.25% In excess of €500,000 Up to a maximum levy of €10,000 FIREARMS Lots marked Ƒ in the catalogue are subject to the UK firearms/shotgun licencing regime, and may only be viewed and/or purchased by individuals with appropriate licences.

SOCIETY OF FINE ART AUCTIONEERS AND VALUERS and the ROYAL INSTITUTION OF CHARTERED SURVEYORS CONDITIONS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION FOR BUYERS 1. Introduction. The following informative notes are intended to assist Buyers, particularly those inexperienced or new to our salerooms. All sales are conducted on our printed Conditions of Sale which are readily available for inspection and normally accompany catalogues. Our staff will be happy to help you if there is anything you do not fully understand.

2. Agency. As auctioneers we usually contract as agents for the seller whose identity, for reasons of confidentiality, is not normally disclosed.

Accordingly if you buy your primary contract is with the seller.

3. Estimates. Estimates are designed to help buyers gauge what sort of sum might be involved for the purchase of a particular lot. The lower estimate may represent the reserve price and certainly will not be below it.

Estimates do not include the Buyer’s Premium or VAT (where chargeable).

Estimates are prepared some time before the sale and may be altered by announcement before the sale. They are in no sense definitive.

4. The purchase price.

The Buyer shall pay the hammer price together with a premium thereon of 25% plus VAT @20% (totalling 30% inclusive) on the first £500,000 and 12% plus VAT @20% (14.4% inclusive) thereafter.

5. VAT. (†) indicates that VAT at the current standard rate is payable by the purchaser on the hammer price as well as being an element in the buyer’s premium. This imposition of VAT is likely to be because the seller is registered for VAT within the European Union and is not operating the Dealers Margin Scheme or because VAT is due at 20% on importation into the UK. The omega symbol (Ω) indicates that the lot has been imported from outside the European Union and the present position is that these lots are liable to a reduced rate of VAT (5%) on the gross lot price (i.e. both the hammer price and the buyer’s premium). Lots which appear without either of the above symbols indicate that no VAT is payable on the hammer price. This is because such lots are sold using the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme and it should be noted that the VAT included within the Premium is not recoverable as input tax.

6. We are, primarily, agents for the seller. We are dependent on information provided by the seller and whilst we may inspect lots and act reasonably in taking a general view about them we are normally unable to carry out a detailed or any examination of lots in order to ascertain their condition in the way in which it would be wise for a buyer to do. Intending buyers have ample opportunity for inspection of goods and, therefore, accept responsibility for inspecting and investigating lots in which they may be interested. Please note carefully the exclusion of liability for the condition of lots contained in the Conditions of Sale. Neither the seller nor we, as the auctioneers, accept any responsibility for their condition. In particular, mechanical objects of any age are not guaranteed to be in working order. However, in so far as we have examined the goods and make a representation about their condition, we shall be liable for any defect which that examination ought to have revealed to the auctioneer but which would not have been revealed to the buyer had the buyer examined the goods. Additionally, in specified circumstances lots misdescribed because they are ‘deliberate forgeries’ may be returned and repayment made. There is a 3 week time limit. (The expression ‘deliberate forgery’ is defined in our Conditions of Sale).

7. Electrical goods. These are sold as ‘antiques’ only and if bought for use must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations by a qualified electrician first.

8. Export of goods. Buyers intending to export goods should ascertain (a) whether an export licence is required for the goods to leave the U.K. and (b) whether there is any specific prohibition on importing the goods in question into the destination country because, e.g. they may contain prohibited materials such as ivory.

Charges may be applicable for export licences. Ask us if you need help.

The denial of any permit or licence shall not justify cancellation or rescission of the sale contract or any delay in payment.

9. Bidding. Bidders will be required to register before the sale commences and lots will be invoiced to the name and address on the registration form.

Some form of identification will be required if you are unknown to us.

Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for telephone bidding.

10. Commission bidding. Commission bids may be left with the auctioneers indicating the maximum amount to be bid excluding buyers’ premium. They will be executed as cheaply as possible having regard to the reserve (if any) and competing bids. If two buyers submit identical commission bids the auctioneers may prefer the first bid received. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for the leaving of commission bids by telephone or fax.

11. Methods of Payment. As a general rule any cheques tendered will need to be cleared before removal of the goods is permitted. Please discuss with our Office in advance of the sale if other methods of payment are envisaged (except cash).

12. Collection and storage. Please note what the Conditions of Sale state about collection and storage. It is important that goods are paid for and collected promptly. Any delay may involve the buyer in paying storage charges.

TERMS OF CONSIGNMENT FOR SELLERS 1. Interpretation. In these Terms the words ‘you’, ‘yours’, etc. refer to the Seller and if the consignment of goods to us is made by an agent we assume that the Seller has authorised the consignment and that the consignor has the Seller’s authority to contract. Similarly the words ‘we’, ‘us’, etc. refer to the Auctioneers.

2. Commission is charged to sellers at the following rates: 15% + VAT on each lot sold for up to £999, 10% + VAT on each lot realising £1,000 and above.

3. Removal costs. Items for sale must be consigned to the sale room by any stated deadline and at your expense. We may be able to assist you with this process but any liability incurred to a carrier for haulage charges is solely your responsibility.

4. Loss and damage waiver. We are not regulated by the FSA for the provision of insurance to clients. However, we for our own protection assume liability for property consigned to us at lower pre-sale estimate. To justify accepting liability, we make a charge of 1.5% of the hammer price plus VAT or, if unsold, our mid estimate of the hammer price. If the owner of goods consigned instructs us in writing not to take such action, they then remain at owner’s risk unless and until the property in them passes to the Buyer or they are collected by or on behalf of the owner, and clause 4 is inapplicable.

5. Illustrations. The cost of any illustrations is borne by you. If we consider that the lot should be illustrated your permission will usually be asked first. The copyright in respect of such illustrations shall be the property of us, the auctioneers, as is the text of the catalogue.

6. Minimum bids and our discretion. Goods may be offered subject to a reserve agreed between us before the sale in accordance with clause 7.

7. We may sell lots below the reserve provided we account to you for the same sale proceeds as you would have received had the reserve been the hammer price. If you specifically give us ‘discretion’ we may accept a bid of up to 10% below the formal reserve. .

Reserves. (a) You are entitled to place prior to the auction a reserve on any lot consigned, being the minimum hammer price at which that lot may be sold. Reserves must be reasonable and we may decline to offer goods which in our opinion would be subject to an unreasonably high reserve (in which case goods carry the storage and insurance charges stipulated in these Terms of Consignment). (b) A reserve once set cannot be changed except with our consent. (c) Where a reserve has been placed only we may bid on your behalf and only up to the reserve (if any) and you may in no circumstances bid personally.

8. Electrical items. These are subject to detailed statutory safety controls.

Where such items are accepted for sale you accept responsibility for the cost of testing by external contractors. Goods not certified as safe by an electrician (unless antiques) will not be accepted for sale. They must be removed at your expense on your being notified. We reserve the right to dispose of unsafe goods as refuse, at your expense.

9. Soft furnishings. The sale of soft furnishings is strictly regulated by statute law in the interests of fire safety. Goods found to infringe safety regulations will not be offered and must be removed at your expense. We reserve the right to dispose of unsafe goods as refuse, at your expense.

The rights of disposal referred to in clause 8 and 9 are subject to the provisions of The Torts (Interference with Goods) Act 1977, Schedule 1, a copy of which is available for inspection on request.

10. Descriptions. Please assist us with accurate information as to the provenance etc. of goods where this is relevant. There is strict liability for the accuracy of descriptions under modern consumer legislation and in some circumstances responsibility lies with sellers if inaccuracies occur. We will assume that you have approved the catalogue description of your lots unless informed to the contrary. Where we are obliged to return the price to the buyer when the lot is a deliberate forgery under Condition 15 of the Conditions of Sale and we have accounted to you for the proceeds of sale you agree to reimburse us the sale proceeds.

The liability to reimburse the sale proceeds shall not arise where you are acting reasonably and honestly and are unaware of the forgery but we are or ought to have been aware of it.

11. Unsold and withdrawn items. If an item is unsold it may with your consent be re-offered at a future sale. Where in our opinion an item is

WW102-602_Listing.qxp_Layout 1 19/08/2019 16:47 Page 71

unsaleable you must collect such items from the saleroom promptly on being so informed. Otherwise, storage charges may be incurred. We reserve the right to charge for storage in these circumstances at a reasonable daily rate.

12. Withdrawn and bought in items. These are liable to incur a charge of up to 10% plus VAT of the reserve or low estimate on being bought in or withdrawn after being catalogued.

13. Conditions of Sale. You agree that all goods will be sold on our Conditions of Sale. In particular you undertake that you have the right to sell the goods either as owner or agent for the owner. You undertake to compensate us and any buyer or third party for all losses liabilities and expenses incurred in respect of and as a result of any breach of this undertaking.

14. Authority to deduct commission and expenses and retain premium and interest. (a) You authorise us to deduct commission at the stated rate and all expenses incurred for your account from the hammer price and consent to our right to retain beneficially the premium paid by the buyer in accordance with our Conditions of Sale and any interest earned on the sale proceeds until the date of settlement. (b) You authorise us in our discretion to negotiate a sale by private treaty not later than the close of business on the day of the sale in the case of lots unsold at auction, in which case the same charges will be payable as if such lots had been sold at auction and so far as appropriate these terms apply.

15. Warehousing. We disclaim all liability for goods delivered to our saleroom without sufficient sale instructions and reserve the right to make minimum warehousing charge of £2 per lot per day. Unsold lots are subject to the same charges if you do not remove them within a reasonable time of notification. If not removed within three weeks we reserve the right to sell them and defray charges from any net proceeds of sale or at your expense to consign them to the local authority for disposal.

16. Settlement. Subject to our normal trading conditions, payment will be made by BACS or cheque 5 weeks after the sale unless the buyer has not paid for the goods. In this case no settlement will then be made but we will take your instructions in the light of our Conditions of Sale. You authorise any sums owed by you to us on other transactions to be deducted from the sale proceeds. You must note the liability to reimburse the proceeds of sale to us as under the circumstances provided for in Condition 10 above. You should therefore bear this potential liability in mind before parting with the proceeds of sale until the expiry of 28 days from the date of sale.

WW102-602_Listing.qxp_Layout 1 19/08/2019 16:47 Page 72

10. COMMISSION BIDS Whilst prospective buyers are strongly advised to attend the auction and are always responsible for any decision to bid for a particular lot and shall be assumed to have carefully inspected and satisfied themselves as to its condition, we will if so instructed clearly and in writing execute bids on their behalf. Neither the auctioneer nor our employees or agents shall be responsible for any failure to do so save where such failure is unreasonable.

Where two or more commission bids at the same level are recorded we reserve the right in our absolute discretion to prefer the first bid so made.

11. WARRANTY OF TITLE AND AVAILABILITY The seller warrants to the auctioneer and you that the seller is the true owner of the property consigned or is properly authorised by the true owner to consign it for sale and is able to transfer good and marketable title to the property free from any third party claims.

12. AGENCY The auctioneer normally acts as agent only and disclaims any responsibility for default by sellers or buyers.

13. TERMS OF SALE The seller acknowledges that lots are sold subject to the stipulations of these Conditions in their entirety and on the Terms of Consignment as notified to the consignor at the time of the entry of the lot.

14. DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITION (a) Whilst we seek to describe lots accurately, it may be impractical for us to carry out exhaustive due diligence on each lot. Prospective buyers are given ample opportunities to view and inspect before any sale and they (and any independent experts on their behalf) must satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any description applied to a lot. Prospective buyers also bid on the understanding that, inevitably, representations or statements by us as to authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price involve matters of opinion. We undertake that any such opinion shall be honestly and reasonably held and accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently. Subject to the foregoing neither we the auctioneer nor our employees or agents nor the seller accept liability for the correctness of such opinions and all conditions and warranties, whether relating to description, condition or quality of lots, express, implied or statutory, are hereby excluded. This Condition is subject to the next following Condition concerning deliberate forgeries and applies save as provided for in paragraph 6 ‘information to buyers’. (b) Private treaty sales made under these Conditions are deemed to be sales by auction for purposes of consumer legislation.

15. FORGERIES Notwithstanding the preceding Condition, any lot which proves to be a deliberate forgery (as defined) may be returned to us by you within 21 days of the auction provided it is in the same condition as when bought, and is accompanied by particulars identifying it from the relevant catalogue description and a written statement of defects. If we are satisfied from the evidence presented that the lot is a deliberate forgery we shall refund the money paid by you for the lot including any buyer’s premium provided that (1) if the catalogue description reflected the accepted view of scholars and experts as at the date of sale or (2) you personally are not able to transfer a good and marketable title to us, you shall have no rights under this condition. The right of return provided by this Condition is additional to any right or remedy provided by law or by these Conditions of Sale.

PAINTINGS, DRAWINGS, LITHOGRAPHS, ENGRAVINGS AND PRINTS In accordance with long standing practice in Fine Art Sale Rooms certain terms used in descriptions in the Catalogue have the meanings ascribed to them in the glossary below.

Glossary Any statement as to authorship, attribution, origin, date, age, provenance and condition is a statement of opinion and is not to be taken as a statement of fact. The Company reserves the right, in forming their opinion, to consult and rely upon any expect or authority considered by them to be reliable. (a) Edward Lear: In our opinion a work by the artist. (When the artist’s forename(s) is not known, a series of asterisks, followed by the surname of the artist, whether preceded by an initial or not, indicates that in our opinion the work is by the artist named. (b) Attributed to Edward Lear: In our opinion probably a work by the artist but less certainly as to authorship is expressed than in the preceding category. (c) Studio of Edward Lear: In our opinion a work by an unknown hand in the studio of the artist which may be or may not have been executed under the artist’s direction. (d) Circle of Edward Lear: In our opinion a work by an as yet unidentified but distinct hand, closely associated with the named artist but not necessarily his pupil. (e) Style of ...; Follower of Edward Lear: In our opinion a work by a painter working in the artist’s style, contemporary or nearly contemporary, but not necessarily his pupil. (f) Manner of Edward Lear: In our opinion a work in the style of the artist and of a later date. (g) After Edward Lear: In our opinion a copy of a known work of the artist. (h) The term signed and/or dated and/or inscribed means that in our opinion the signature and/or date and/or inscription are from the hand of the artist. (i) The term bears a signature and/or date and/or inscription means that in our opinion the signature and/or date and/or inscription have been added by another hand. (j) Dimensions are given height before width. (k) Pictures are framed unless otherwise stated.

PROBATE VALUATIONS We offer a speedy and professional service for executors and trustees and provide bound valuations for probate and duplicate copies when required.
