Lot Footnotes
Note: Richard Cockle Lucas (1800-1883) is predominately known as a sculptor in wax and ivory, but he also worked in glass, marble and bronze, as well as being a painter. He began his career as a sculptor as an apprentice to his uncle, who worked as a cutler in Winchester, carving knife handles. He joined the Royal Academy Schools in 1828 and studied under Richard Westmacott. He exhibited at the Royal Academy between 1829 and 1859 and showed ivory carvings and imitation bronzes at the Great Exhibition in 1851.
Anna Brownell Jameson (1794-1860), daughter of miniaturist D.B. Murphy, was an Anglo-Irish art historian and critic whose work included literary and art criticism, travel writing, philosophy and feminism. She associated with prominent members of society such as Elizabeth Barrett-Browning and Robert Browning, Ottilie von Goethe, Lady Byron and Ada Lovelace.
