Oil on paper laid to canvas
12 x 89cm (4½ x 35 in.)
Painted circa 1795.
Provenance:
John Witt, London

Exhibited:
London , Courtauld Institute, The John Witt Collection, Part II, English School , 1963, n. 50
Thomas Stothard (1755-1843) was born in London and developed an early interest in painting while attending school in Yorkshire. In 1769, he began a seven-year apprenticeship with a designer of silk brocades. He made his exhibition debut in 1776 with the Incorporated Society of Artists, and in 1778 began exhibiting at the Royal Academy, where he would continue to show his work annually throughout his career. Stothard was elected an Associate of the Academy in 1792 and became a full Academician in 1794.
In addition to painting, Stothard was active as a book illustrator and silverware designer. He undertook several significant decorative commissions, including the staircase at Burleigh House in 1799 and the extensive mural decoration of Buckingham Palace.
The present frieze, featuring classical figures inspired by pastoral and aquatic themes, exemplifies Stothard's distinctive decorative style

STUDY FOR READING THE WILL

London, Richard L. Feigen & Co, Sir David Wilkie (1785 - 1841) , 13 October - 25 November 1994 (hors cat.)

‡ SIR DAVID WILKIE (SCOTTISH 1785-1841)
SKETCH FOR THE STATE PORTRAIT OF QUEEN ADELAIDE
Pen and brown ink and watercolour over pencil
Signed and indistinctly dated '18??' (lower right)
27 x 15cm (10½ x 5¾ in.)
Provenance:
Ladybank Sale of Leslie House effects, Fife
With William McClaren
Sale, Sotheby's, London, Eighteenth and Nineteenth Century British Drawings and Watercolours , 11 April 1991, lot 52
With Bourne Fine Art, Edinburgh
Wilkie as Painter in Ordinary to the King was commanded to paint the companion picture of Queen Adelaide in Coronation robes in December 1832, the finished work exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1834 (now lost, a later version hangs in the Examination Schools, Oxford). Wilkie had painted King William IV in 1831, exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1832. The date on the present drawing is hard to read, if read as 1836 (as when it was sold previously) it could be a retrospective drawing rather than a study and presumably done for a particular client, though Wilkie was strict about not selling or giving people portraits of the Royal Family. Wilkie has certainly flattered the Queen in his portrayal of her.
We are grateful to Alex Kidson for his help in preparing this catalogue entry. The work will be included in Hamish Miles' forthcoming catalogue raisonné of the work of David Wilkie.
