Barton, Griselda and Michael Tong. Underriver: Samuel Palmer's Golden Valley: Samuel Palmer was one of England's greatest 19th Century landscape painters who came from London to live and work in the Kentish village of Shoreham, below the verdant chalk hills of the North Downs. Through his artistic perception Shoreham was to have immortality bestowed upon it as "The Valley of Vision". Palmer often walked at night to the distant hills where he could see the sun rise over "the flower of Kentish scenery". Below the hills was his "Golden Valley" -- the hamlet of Underriver.

flattered by the Dedication, and has often expressed his │ Approbation in the
following terms: "Mr. PILKINGTON's Work is an │ invaluable Acquisition
to Painting;--to uncommon Industry, he has added │ Elegance and Judgment; and,
what seldom occurs, has happily contrived to │ mingle the utile dulci." │

STOTHARD, Thomas |
1405 |
Stothard, Thomas. [Study of an empty border design for an unidentified book illustration] [art original]. Drawing of the border of an empty circle (presumably waiting for a design, e.g., a portrait) bordered by leaves, above a cartouche (empty) and below an elegant, leaf-fringed shape with a harp in the middle, in ink and grey wash.
7.8 x 11.5 cm, no watermark, plausibly signed in old brown ink at the bottom right margin "T. Stothard". On the verso in ink are small versions of the recto design plus (partly cut off):
Airtholl[?]
4560 Pines Horace
1077 Amt[?] Univ Hist Vol 21 21.5.6

Stothard, Thomas. [Drawing for the First Age of The Seven Ages of Man] [art original]. Two women sitting on low benches; one old woman facing us with a babe in white on her lap is tasting from a large spoon in her left hand. She has on buff long dress, grey hair covered with a white handkerchief tied under the chin, white facings on her bodice, and grey shoes. The younger woman facing her is in profile; she has on a long pink dress, a white bonnet with a matching pink ribbon, and pale shoes of non-descript colour; she is leaning forward looking at the babe and holding in her right hand a metal cup. In the background are undefined pale shadows. The British Museum Print Room has a drawing for the subject. Inscribed on verso in Stothard's hand: "The infant mewling & puking in its nurses arms" T. Stothard R.A. |
1407 |
Stothard, Thomas. [Drawing of Britannia seated] [art original]. Britannia is seated with lion and trophies at her feet, with royal arms above her and a Union Jack in the background.
4 x 2 ¼", mounted on grey paper. The drawing is attractive but unremarkable. It has no clear indication that it is by Stothard, but Laurie M. Deval and Colnaghi (their source) were sure it was by Stothard, and he exhibited a design of the Triumph of Britannia at the British Institution in 1819. |
