23rd June 2022 – January 2023 

Stables Café, Blenheim Palace, Woodstock, Oxfordshire, OX20 1UL

Zuleika Gallery is delighted to announce its next exhibition at the Stables Café at Blenheim Palace, Vibrant Journeys in Paint, an exhibition that brings together two contemporary artists, Arabella Ross and Carrie Stanley. Vibrant Journeys in Paint will be open to the public from 23rd June and continues until January 2022.
 
Both artists’ work is full of energy, colour and expression and is informed by personal narrative and memories. Stories are weaved through the paintings and glimpsed by the viewer. These artists are united not only by their use of memory and narrative but are also connected by their process, which is organic and to some extent automatic for each. The materiality of the work for both artists is extremely important with energetic mark making as paint is liberally smeared, smudged or poured. Arabella comments: “Carrie’s work is beautifully expressive; her use of her paint, subject matter and mark making. To exhibit together at Blenheim Palace is an exciting opportunity for us both.”
 
The paintings are almost dreamlike narratives. Suggestion is prioritised over realism for these artists as they transmute the representational world into their own personal semi abstract worlds. Motifs and images are layered – some submerged and others floating in an almost Chagallian fantasy. Both artists work on a large scale which lends itself well to the Stables Café. Carrie comments “Arabella’s work echoes my own search for balancing the light and dark of human experience through the absolute joy of painting and I’m very excited to be showing alongside her.”

_‘The Country Club’ by Henry William Bunbury, oil on canvas, POA from Strachan Fine Art_

The annual **Cotswold Art & Antiques Dealers’ Association Fair** is taking place at a new venue this year - [Compton Verney Art Gallery and Park](https://www.comptonverney.org.uk/) in Warwickshire - the first since 2019 as last year’s event was cancelled due to the pandemic. This ninth annual fair opens from **Thursday 14 to Sunday 17 October 2021**.
 
Some 27 exhibitors, mainly members of the association (CADA), are joined by a few specialist guest exhibitors. Disciplines for sale cover several centuries and include oil and watercolour paintings, original etchings and drawings, clocks and barometers, jewellery, vintage watches, fine and campaign furniture, oriental ceramics, carpets and rugs, textiles, glass, silver, antique boxes, garden and architectural antiques, sculpture, interior accessories and objets d’art.

Entry to the event is free for CADA Fair ticket holders. An upgrade ticket to visit Compton Verney's upstairs exhibitions is available for £5.50 on site.

At the time of the fair, Compton Verney Art Gallery itself is hosting [Grinling Gibbons: Centuries in the Making](https://www.comptonverney.org.uk/event/grinling-gibbons-centuries-in-the-making/) commemorating the remarkable life and legacy of Grinling Gibbons (1648-1721), as part of a year-long series of events to commemorate the tercentenary of the most renowned British woodcarver of the 17th century, often called the ‘Michelangelo of Wood.’ The exhibition, Centuries in the Making - produced in partnership with the [Grinling Gibbons Society](https://grinling-gibbons.org/) - will reveal the life, genius and legacy of this legendary sculptor and craftsman, who died in August 1721. 

![cada fair at compton verney art gallery primary image.jpg](https://cada-media.s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/cada_fair_at_compton_verney_art_gallery_primary_image_502239ff73.jpg)

_‘The Country Club’ by Henry William Bunbury, oil on canvas, POA from Strachan Fine Art_ 

If the Grinling Gibbons exhibition proves inspiring to visitors, **Shaw Edwards Antiques** has a range of carved oak pieces for sale at the fair, covering the 15th to 18th centuries, amongst which is a 15th century Flemish oak carved angel depicted playing a musical instrument. It has been carved in the round indicating that it was probably part of an altar group with this as one of the ‘heavenly hosts’, £4,450 and a pair of 17th century French oak carvings, circa 1650, £850 the pair.

More stunning wooden furniture and other items for sale at the fair include a rare and important Regency period coromandel centre table, circa 1800-1810 from **[Freshfords Fine Antiques](/dealer-profile/8)**. Measuring 127cm in diameter, the open fret carving has an Asian style and depicts mystical shapes, centralised with hearts, and is priced at £30,000.
 
**[Tobias Birch](/dealer-profile/28)** brings an exceptional month going mahogany wall regulator by Richens Bath, circa 1870, priced at £28,000 and a George III mahogany timepiece with white enamel dial, signed John Horn, circa 1800, £6,500. **[Mark Goodger Antiques](/dealer-profile/32)** exhibits a fine collection of antique boxes and tea caddies with many different uses, amongst which is a pair of Georgian cutlery boxes, veneered in flame mahogany with naive conch shells and diamond-shaped bone escutcheon, circa 1795, £3,950.

![cada fair at compton verney art gallery secondary image.jpg](https://cada-media.s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/cada_fair_at_compton_verney_art_gallery_secondary_image_c406034c75.jpg)

_Painted folk art cottage sewing box, c.1800, £5,200 from Mark Goodger Antiques_


**[David Pickup Antiques](/dealer-profile/23)** is bringing a fabulously proportioned oak bench with woven leather top and chamfered stretchers, designed by Gordon Russell (1892-1980) in the first year of Russell’s production in 1923 and described as ‘a fireside bench in oak’. **[W.R. Harvey & Co. (Antiques) Ltd](/dealer-profile/11)** has two 17th century escritoires, each priced at £60,000, one being a William and Mary period kingwood fall front escritoire attributed to Thomas Pistor, the other a Charles II period burr walnut escritoire containing some 40 drawers and secret compartments.

A highlight on BBC Antiques Roadshow expert **Lennox Cato**’s stand must be a rare William and Mary floral marquetry oyster veneered chest on stand in the manner of Thomas Pistor, who often used stained green ivory as decoration on ebony ground veneer, circa 1700, £32,000 and a very rare Chinese export games table made of solid padouk-wood with ebony stringing and satinwood crossbandings, circa 1790, £9,850.

More Chinese treasures can be found on **[Catherine Hunt Oriental Antiques](/dealer-profile/17)**’ stand. Made for the European market in the 17th century, when the fashion was for a Chinese themed room, are transitional wucai figures of the Hehe Erxian twins, made at Jingdezhen during the reign of the Emperor Shunzhi, the first Qing Emperor, circa 1650, priced at £5,750. The twins, each holding a small vase, are also known as the Twins of Harmony. A contender for our Prime Minister's home could be a Chinese export armorial plate, also made in the Jingdezhen kilns for a specific order at the end of the Kangxi reign or at the start of the Yongzheng reign, circa 1730, as it bears the arms of Johnson.

![cada fair at compton verney art gallery image 2.jpg](https://cada-media.s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/cada_fair_at_compton_verney_art_gallery_image_2_c8211e1636.jpg)

_A rare William and Mary period kingwood escritoire attributed to Thomas Pistor, c.1690, £60,000 from W.R. Harvey & Co (Antiques) Ltd_

Paintings, etchings and lithographs cover many different genres, topics and eras. An unusual offering of local interest is a complete album of 18 watercolours of Warwickshire landmarks and views by the Coventry born artist Herbert Edward Cox (1870-1941) on **[Newman Fine Art](/dealer-profile/22)**’s stand, £1,450. The album was presented to F.G. Green Esq., inspector of schools, from the local teachers’ association upon his promotion to another district in October 1904.

**[Sarah Colegrave Fine Art](/dealer-profile/5)** also has a watercolour of local interest. 'The Quarry at Culver Hill, Amberley, near Stroud' was signed and dated 1928 by Henry Arthur Payne RWS (1868-1940) and has an asking price of £750. Payne studied under E.R. Taylor at Birmingham School of Art and joined the staff in 1889. He was commissioned to decorate the chapel at Madresfield Court, a task which occupied him for twenty years and is one of the great achievements of the Arts and Crafts movement. This also led to him painting a mural for the Palace of Westminster - his work 'Plucking the Red and White Roses in the Old Temple Gardens', an allegory on the War of the Roses, now hangs in the Palace's East Corridor. Payne settled in the Cotswolds, encouraging many other Birmingham artists to do the same.

_Charles II quarter repeating table clock by Joseph Knibb, London, c.1685, £90,000 from Tobias Birch_

Fine portraits can be found for sale from several art dealers at the fair adding grandeur to an interior. An aristocratic beauty of the time, **[Trinity House Paintings](/dealer-profile/29)** shows The Honourable Frances Thynne, 'Lady Worsley, Wife of Sir Robert Worsley' and daughter of Thomas Thynne, 1st Viscount Weymouth of Longleat by German artist Sir Godfrey Kneller (1646-1723), one of many portraits of Lady Worsley who embodied the ideals of feminine beauty that were celebrated in the English Baroque period.

_‘Hotwells and the Avon Gorge, Bristol’ by Joseph Murray Ince, watercolour, signed and dated 1833, priced in the region of £3,500 from Newman Fine Art_

The central figure in 'The Country Club' by Henry William Bunbury (1750-1811) is probably a portrait of William Hogarth and, at the punchbowl, Dr. Benjamin Hoadley the playwright, an oil on canvas to be found on **[Strachan Fine Art](/dealer-profile/27)**’s stand. Amongst **[Elizabeth Harvey-Lee](/dealer-profile/12)**’s original etchings is a portrait of Paul Cézanne by Camille Pissarro etched in the year of the first ‘Impressionist’ exhibition in Paris, in which Cézanne also participated, through the offices of Pissarro. In 1874, Cézanne was 35 years of age and living at Auvers-sur-Oise to be close to Pissarro, his mentor. In the last year of his life, 1906, Cézanne described himself as the pupil of Pissarro.

_‘Carnival’ by Paul Mount, stainless steel on slate base raised on a perspex plinth, c.1980, £24,600 + ARR from Architectural Heritage_

Modern British art is well represented at the fair. New CADA member, **[Neil Schofield](/dealer-profile/34)**, is planning to show works by Ceri Richards, William Scott, Roy Turner Durrant and Mary Fedden, including a pencil drawing by Wilhelmina Barns-Graham that formed the basis for one of her most well-known and significant works ‘Cornish Landscape, Porthleven’. **[Freya Mitton](/dealer-profile/38)** also sells works by 20th century artists such as Diana Armfield, Mary Fedden, Ken Howard and Albert Irvin. **Stuart Boyd Fine Art** specialises in 18th and 19th century landscape and marine watercolours, amongst which is 'The Nab' by Frank H Mason (1875-1965) and a calmer pastoral 'The Close of Day' by Joseph H Swanwick (1866-1929), selling for £1,150 and £1,450 respectively.

![cada fair at compton verney art gallery image 6.jpg](https://cada-media.s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/cada_fair_at_compton_verney_art_gallery_image_6_88e065a638.jpg)

A mid-18th century wool and silk Verdure tapestry panel depicting an idyllic scene of two large birds on either side of a stream flanked by trees with an imposing mansion or castle on top of a hillock, wool and silk, 249 x 246cm (almost square), £6,600 is just one of the items for sale from textile and carpet specialist, **[Legge Carpets](/dealer-profile/18)**, also bringing two Persian qum rugs. It is rare to find two similar Persian qum rugs that can be used as an extremely decorative attribute to an elegant interior, each priced at £5,000.

**[Lesley Blackford](/dealer-profile/19)** presents a pair of Regency silk ribbon work pictures in original frames, £380 the pair. **[Witney Antiques](/dealer-profile/30)** has a relatively unusual 19th century American sampler by Hannah Stonehouse, worked in her 15th year, 1808, the year marking the beginning of the Peninsular War when the British, Spanish and Portuguese fought the armies of Napoleon in Portugal. Depiction of military subjects on samplers were relatively uncommon.

Glass features on a couple of stands with **[Brian Watson Antique Glass](/dealer-profile/35)** bringing a pair of French early 19th century elaborately cut beakers engraved with the coat of arms of a count, selling for £265 each. Although the name of the family has not been identified, it seems likely that these beakers were engraved for one of the roughly two hundred counts created by Napoleon Bonaparte between 1808 and 1815.

![cada fair at compton verney art gallery image 7.jpg](https://cada-media.s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/cada_fair_at_compton_verney_art_gallery_image_7_314ced67b2.jpg)

Following the disruption caused by the pandemic, which meant we could not hold our fair last year, it will be new beginnings for the fair in its new venue at Compton Verney. Not only will our members put on a magnificent show with a great variety of fine art and antiques from across their individual businesses in the Cotswolds, all of which will be for sale, but visitors will also be able to enjoy Compton Verney Art Gallery’s exhibition and treasures, and also a stroll through its Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown designed park.”

_'Claudine and the Red Rose’ by Marcel Dyf, oil on canvas POA from  Trinity House Paintings_

With Valentine’s Day on the horizon, members of The Cotswold Art & Antique Dealers’ Association (CADA) have been coming up with very different ideas on how to celebrate February’s theme of LOVE, which will be shared on **[Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/cadaartandantiquesassociation/)** @cadartandantiquesassociation.

Bunches of fresh flowers, often roses, make their way to loved ones on Valentine’s Day. Why not say it with flowers in a lasting way? **[Trinity House Paintings](/dealer-profile/29)** has Floral Still Life, an oil on canvas by Mary Fedden (1915-2012), dated 1946;

a pair of interior scenes with a young woman being offered flowers by her suitor by Jean-Simon Fournier 1794

or Claudine and the Red Rose by French artist Marcel Dyf (1899-1985).

**[Haynes Fine Art](/dealer-profile/13)** offers Flirtation, an oil on panel by Alfonso Savini (Italian, 1836-1908), £7,650.

You can’t go wrong with Roses, the oil on canvas by Modern British artist Bryan Kneale MBE RA (born 1930), POA from Architectural Heritage.

Valentine’s Day is also a time for proposals. Having spent so much time in lockdown, couples realise how important they are to each other and some may plan to make it more permanent. Of course, 14th February is traditionally known as the day that women can propose to men, but it works both ways. CADA members can come up with several ways to help just celebrate loving someone and showing appreciation at this time of year.

An unusual way to propose might be to pop the question with **[Haynes Fine Art](/dealer-profile/13)**’s The Proposal, oil on panel by Belgian artist Florent Willems (1823-1905), £80,000.
Alternatively, English pottery specialist **[John Howard](/dealer-profile/14)**, whose 19th century Staffordshire pottery bocage group in pearlware and coloured glazes, Persuasion, circa 1810-1820, is attributed to the Patriot Group, £2,950. The slightly shy female figure is rather contentedly thinking about the fair offer her partner has made as he proffers a gold ring.
A somewhat whimsical dog looks adoringly and coyly at his mistress, almost imploring her to say “yes”.

For the tea lover, a Regency sycamore tea caddy with naïve prints of Venus, goddess of love and beauty, with her son Cupid, £2,650 from **[Freshfords Fine Antiques](/dealer-profile/8)** could be a romantic choice, or from **[Mark Goodger Antiques](/dealer-profile/32)** comes a very rare ivory octagonal tented top tea caddy with faceted cut steel decoration and tortoiseshell edging.
Behind cut steel framed glass is a painted plaque of a young courting couple, circa 1795.

**[Legge Carpets Ltd](/dealer-profile/18)** has a wool and silk hand woven Flemish tapestry fragment dating to about 1600, the centre cartouche depicting a couple going for a stroll in an idyllic scene in the countryside, £1,250. With the home playing such a significant part in our lockdown lives, a splash of the colour of passion could be an option like a pair of Regency mahogany and brass library chairs with shaped scrolled barrel backs in smart red leather, attributed to Gillows of Lancaster, circa 1815, £17,500 that could add a little pzazz, or even a pair of Chippendale period mahogany chairs with red upholstery and leaf carved pierced backs and corner brackets, circa 1760, £2,450 both from **[W.R. Harvey & Co. (Antiques) Ltd](/dealer-profile/11)**.

_Persuasion’ Staffordshire pottery bocage figure group, attributed to the ‘Patriot Group’, c.1810-1820 £2,950 from John Howard_

Thinking even further out of the box, a George III brass bound mahogany oval oyster bucket full of the delicacy, circa 1780, could set the scene, £1,500 (oysters not included).

Oyster buckets were a feature of Georgian London when street vendors abounded and these receptacles would have graced the best homes in the country and can now be used as ice buckets for champagne and wine.

As music is the food of love, a pretty George III period oak and mahogany duet stand, circa 1800, £2,250 could be considered for a traditional musical twosome, also from **[W.R. Harvey & Co. (Antiques) Ltd](/dealer-profile/11)**.

Don’t forget the candles with a fine pair of Baroque silver candlesticks for romantic meals, £18,000 or drink to the future with a pair of antique toasting glasses, £2,200 from **[Mayflower Antiques](/dealer-profile/33)**.

**George III mahogany extendable pedestal dining table, circa 1820, £28,500 with eight George III mahogany Hepplewhite chairs (£9,850 from [Moxhams Antiques](/dealer-profile/21), Bradford-on-Avon ([www.moxhams-antiques.co.uk](https://www.moxhams-antiques.co.uk/))**

**Extending cherry wood French farmhouse table, circa 1840, £3,650 from [Prichard Antiques](/dealer-profile/24), Winchcombe ([www.prichardantiques.co.uk](https://www.prichardantiques.co.uk/))**

Brown furniture often gets a bad press, but for entertaining, whether it be Christmas or any other celebratory event, the table is often the key to bringing everyone together. 
With COVID-19 in our midst, festive entertaining and the Christmas meal may be rather depleted this year, but a table is not just for Christmas, it can see families through generations of fun and entertaining and with antique tables has already done so. 

The antique furniture dealer members of **The Cotswold Art & Antiques Dealers’ Association (CADA)** are sharing their entertaining ideas on **[Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/cadaartandantiquesassociation/)** @cadaartandantiquesassociation and on the newly updated website at www.thecada.org all through the month of December.

Even if there are just two of you this Christmas, **[Moxhams Antiques](/dealer-profile/21)** ([www.moxhams-antiques.co.uk](https://www.moxhams-antiques.co.uk/)) from Bradford-on-Avon shows us that George III mahogany pedestal dining table, circa 1820, which can be extended with three loose leaves (£28,500), can be just a perfect fit for two at one end. **[Moxhams Antiques](/dealer-profile/21)** has topped its table with a few pieces from its extensive early 19th century ironstone dinner service, comprising 114 pieces (£2,850) and surrounded it with a set of eight George III mahogany Hepplewhite chairs (£9,850).
Alternatively, utilise the extensions on a table to keep you socially distanced.

**[Prichard Antiques](/dealer-profile/24)** in Winchcombe ([www.prichardantiques.co.uk](https://www.prichardantiques.co.uk/)) has a fabulous extending cherry wood French farmhouse table glowing with warm honey tones. When closed, it seats six, but doubles in length with chestnut leaves allowing for wider spaces between you, circa 1840 (£3,650).

**A table setting offering a bit of fun for all  when visiting the Picton House galleries of [Haynes Fine Art](/dealer-profile/13) in Broadway ([www.haynesfineart.com](https://www.haynesfineart.com/))**

**[W.R. Harvey & Co (Antiques) Ltd](/dealer-profile/11)**, Witney (**[www.wrharvey.com](https://www.wrharvey.com/)**) has embraced the small table challenge packing this particularly rare mid-18 century mahogany oval breakfast table with its one piece solid mahogany top, not glued together planks (£4,500), circa 1760, by packing it full of festive treats of fruit, mince pies, Xmas pud, biscuits, chocolates, nuts, stollen and lebkuchen for two to enjoy sharing over the holiday. 
Why not add a special pair of antique toasting glasses (£2,200 the pair) from **[Mayflower Antiques](/dealer-profile/33)** (**[www.mayflower-antiques.co.uk](http://mayflower-antiques.co.uk/)**)?

Joining in with their own take on dining for two is specialist art dealer **[Haynes Fine Art](/dealer-profile/13)** (**[www.haynesfineart.com](https://www.haynesfineart.com/)**) that likes to make sure that there is fun for everyone to enjoy when visiting the extensive galleries in the picturesque village of Broadway.

Of course, there are other important items to bring the table to life and add a little decorative glamour in these restrictive times such as an impressive 24 place setting silver cutlery set made by William Hutton & Sons Ltd in London, 1899/1901, which comes in its original canteen from **[Howards Jewellers](/dealer-profile/16)** in Stratford-on-Avon (**[www.howardsjewellers.com](http://www.howardsjewellers.com/)**). 
Enjoy just using two place settings for now and bring out the full set for all to use when restrictions ease. 

Add a fine pair of Baroque silver candlesticks (£18,000) or collectors may be particularly interested in two Charles I silver dessert stands by Thomas Maundy (£37,500) from **[Mayflower Antiques](/dealer-profile/33)**.

Use a couple of flutes from the rare set of six engraved with OXO borders on diamond cut facetted stems for the champagne from **[Delomosne & Son Ltd](/dealer-profile/7)** in North Wraxall, near Chippenham (**[www.delomosne.co.uk](https://delomosne.co.uk/)**); they will sparkle in the candlelight (£2,600 the set) and some of the set of six jelly glasses, circa 1800 (£265 the set) for dessert. Someone with a small appetite may enjoy the straight sided custard cup, circa 1820 (£55).

For the wine connoisseur or FOMO hosts **[W.R. Harvey & Co (Antiques)](/dealer-profile/11)** Ltd suggests a George III period oval or hexagonal mahogany wine coolers (£2,950 each) to save having to leave the room to get more cold drinks from the fridge.
