24723Oxford 9 Sept. 1857. Two Letters. Four pages 12mo bifolium. "I am delighted to hear from you that the Bassingham Doorway is to be preserved - I lose no time in sending a design for the oak doors - I think plainly moulded framing & ridged panels will best suit the age - It looks plain in outline - but if of handsome English oak will look beautiful in execution. I had not a single dimension of width or height to guide me - It is hardly fair to set to work without them - but in the hands of a good joiner . - These square panels . are now in keeping with the style of domestic work of this period than cusps & tracery. . We are only just come home - My Father see below is at present at Lincoln - & not likely to be home for spome days. I hope you are quite well & very busy: & shall be glad if the inclosed should be put in practice - I trust the propositins are not egregiously inaccurate. With most kind regards to Mrs. Watson ." ENCLOSED: Autograph Letter Signed "J.C. Buckler" architect father of Charles working with him perhaps also to Frederick Watson 2pp. 16mo closely written good condition. "I am much obliged to you for the enclosure & with regard to the other part of your letter referring to the spandules the of the arch must remain blank underlined. I did not look upon it as a defect when I preapred the design & do not now think that it will be regarded asa . When I have time I will design the corbel. I shall be obliged to you if you will look in the Norwich papers for remarks upon the Cathedral & the ruins I have taken pains to save. Some notice of these subjects has already been taken but it is now too late to enquire after them. If when you have done with the paperwork some of these days may touch upon these antiquities & would send it to me I'd be obliged. Nobody else is likely to take the trouble to make the information known to me." Notes: a. "The Bassingham gate is now located since 1857 on the South side of this medieval Guildhall Norwich. The Door was previously located on house at London Street Norwich"; b. See article online "Getting into a Scrape: The Buckler Dynasty Lincoln Cathedral and Mid-Victorian Architectural Politics"."The Bassingham gate - Portal at 57-59 London Street was removed for widening in 1857. The Door & Portal was bought by William Wilde for twelve pounds.It is deeply misleading. Arnold Kent writing in 1949 noted that the arms of Henry VII above those of the Goldsmiths Company and the City of Norwich could no longer be made out. They have been crudely recut - presumably after 1949." Text Source: visit linkThere is a blue plaque located to the left of the door that reads:-FORMERLY THE ENTRANCE TO THE HOUSE/IN LONDON STREET OF JOHN BASSINGHAM/GOLDSMITH DURING THE REIGN OF HENRY VIII. / IT WAS ERECTED HERE IN 1857.

19398151939. Etching on fine laid antique Head & Co. paper with a partial watermark. 1/2 x 13/16 13 x 21 mm full margins. Signed dated and inscribed "II" in pencil lower margin. A trial proof impression from the second state of two printed by the artist aside from the regular edition of 519. In superb condition with excellent inking and inky plate edges. <br /> <br /> Fletcher 330. Fletcher states a discrepency in the number of impressions in the regular edition of this plate. Arms in two different places lists the edition size as 471; yet his notes indicate an additional 48 impressions.<br /> <br /> French Church Series No. 42<br /> Christmas Card Series No. 20<br /> Miniature Series No. 23<br /> Brooch Series No. 4<br /> <br /> Paper: Arms was typical of the artists of this period - he was obsessed with paper a mania for collecting paper that could/would improve an edition. The quantity he left after his death distributed by his wife to fellow artists witnesses his love for finely made paper -paper interesting because of texture color distinctive weave.<br /> <br /> The earliest paper known to have been used by Arms came from a Baptismal Register Kirchen Ordnung The Reformed Church Middletown Dauphin County Pennsylvania 1708 bought in a bookshop in Philadelphia.<br /> <br /> His early prints 1915-1919 evidence paper taken from old books with gilded edges. Some prints appear on stationary from the Cisalpine Napoleonic Italy still bearing the estampe of the office or department; others carry penned ink page numbers taken from old ledgers of the Eighteenth Century-all beautiful shades of grey blue and green handmade ribbed and otherwise. Some of his color aquatints were printed on full sheets of heavy chine or Japanese vellum giving a sense of luxury in the richness of the stock and the width of the margins. There was a myriad of modern papers gleaned in England France Italy and the United States. -William Dolan Fletcher A Man For All Times p. 15. unknown

The image size is approximately 100 x 80 mm. the overall size including mount is 285 x 265 mm. In fine condition acid free mount and solid wood frame with fixings. A very well executed entomological watercolour. Biography: British artist and wildlife illustrator Chris Shields graduated Northwich College of Art and Design in 1973. For many decades he has pursued his passion for wildlife as a full-time self-employed illustrator and is now regarded as one of the world's leading exponents of this genera. He has contributed wildlife illustrations to over 300 books numerous calendars greeting cards postcards including a fine series of 30 postcards of British birds for Grange Books/Royle posters and jigsaw puzzles. He has exhibited his paintings widely in the UK and China and his paintings are held in public and private collections worldwide. He has a particular interest in moths and butterflies and was President of the Manchester Entomological Society.
