Lot 62

Description

Circle of Carlo Antonio Tavella, 
Italian 1668-1738- 

A wooded landscape with hunting; 

black chalk, pen and black and brown ink on laid paper, bears old label 'from Careys / sent to Barclay / Pearson after the / Bowden-Smith Sale' on the backing board, 24.5 x 17.4 cm. 

Provenance: 
Bowden-Smith family, Careys Manor, New Forest. 
Barclay Pearson (both according to the label attached to the backing board). 
Private Collection, UK. 

Note: 
Two drawings of similar subjects by the Genoese painter Carlo Maria Tavella, which showcase the artist's characteristically lively linework and free treatment of foliage, are in the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago (1922.3469 and 1922.67 respectively).

Careys was a royal hunting manor which Charles II gifted to his hunting master John Carey for services rendered during the period 1660-1685. The Bowden-Smith family took over the ownership of the house in 1790. Herman Bowden-Smith was the last member of his family to own the house, which he sold in 1934 before he went to live in Switzerland. A Dutchman called Mr Builderbeck bought the house and turned it into a Hotel with most of the land sold off separately to the local council. The buyer of the picture from the Bowden-Smith sale was presumably the Barclay Pearson mentioned on the label - possibly Robert Barclay Pearson (1871-1954), Chairman of the Stock Exchange Committee.
