A selection of fine art created over the span of several centuries and a witness to the past. From an 18th Century tavern sign, its gilt armorial crest ushering in revellers in a post-Civil War Britain, to a pen and ink sketch by John Serres depicting the wrecking of the ship Prosperine in 1799, and a delicate portrait of Florence Nightingale, comfortable in her own bed towards the end of her life. The auction includes a good collection of prints by Burne-Jones, Augustus John and James Whistler, illustrations for book covers, miniatures, and notable works by John Frederick Herring Snr, Sir Frank Brangwyn, and Norman Cornish.
