JOSEPH HENDERSON RSW (SCOTTISH 1832 - 1908) ROW BOAT COMING IN TO SHORE oil on board, signed and dated 1878framedimage size 50cm x 80cm, overall size 59cm x 88cmNote: Joseph Henderson was born on 10 June 1832 in Stanley, Perthshire, He was the third of four boys. When he was about six, the family moved to Edinburgh and took up residence in Broad Street. The two older boys joined their father, also Joseph, as stone masons. Joseph’s father died when Joseph was eleven leaving his mother, Marjory Slater, in straightened circumstances. As a result, Joseph and his twin brother, James, were sent to work at an early age and the thirteen-year-old Joseph was apprenticed to a draper/hosier. At the same time, he attended part-time classes at the Trustees’ Academy, Edinburgh. At the age of seventeen, on 2 February 1849, he enrolled as an art student in the Academy. From the census of 1851, Marjory, Joseph and James were living at 5 Roxburgh Place, Edinburgh. Marjory was now a ‘lodging housekeeper’ with two medical students as boarders. James was a ‘jeweller’ while Joseph was a ‘lithographic drawer’. In the same year Joseph won a prize for drawing at the Academy enabling him, along with fellow students, W. Q. Orchardson, W. Aikman and W. G. Herdman, to travel to study the works of art at the Great Exhibition in London, which he found to be a very formative experience. He left the Academy about 1852-3 and settled in Glasgow. He is first mentioned in the Glasgow Post Office Directory for 1857-8 where he is listed as an artist living at 6 Cathedral Street. Joseph Henderson’s first exhibited work was a self-portrait which was shown at the Royal Scottish Academy (RSA) in 1853. He painted several portraits of friends and local dignitaries including a half-length portrait of his friend John Mossman in 1861. His painting, The Ballad Singer established his reputation as one of Scotland`s foremost artists when exhibited at the RSA in 1866. Throughout his career he continued in portraiture. He executed portraits of James Paton (1897) a founder and superintendent of the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum (this portrait was bequeathed to Kelvingrove in 1933) and Alexander Duncan of the Faculty of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow. He also painted Mr. Scott Dickson, Sir Charles Cameron, Bart., DL, LLD (1897) and Sir John Muir, Lord Provost of Glasgow (1893). His portrait of councillor Alexander Waddell (1893) was presented to Kelvingrove in 1896. However, it is probably as a painter of seascapes and marine subjects that he became best known. His picture Where Breakers Roar attracted much attention when exhibited at the Royal Glasgow Institute (RGI) in 1874, ‘as a rendering of angry water’. Henderson was in part responsible for raising the profile and status of artists in Glasgow and was a member of the Glasgow Art Club (he was President in 1887-8), the Royal Glasgow Institute of the Fine Arts (founded 1861) and the Royal Society of Painters in Watercolour. Between 1853 and 1892, he exhibited frequently at the RSA and at the RGI and between 1871 and 1886 he had twenty pictures accepted for the Royal Academy in London. In 1901 he was entertained at a dinner by the President and Council of the Glasgow Art Club to celebrate his jubilee as a painter. He was presented with a solid gold and silver palette. An inscription on the palette read: ‘Presented to Joseph Henderson, Esq., R.S.W. by fellow-members of the Art Club as a mark of esteem and a souvenir of his jubilee as a painter, 8th January 1901’ Joseph Henderson was married three times. On 8 January 1856 he married Helen Cosh (d. 1866) with whom he had four children including a daughter Marjory who became the second wife of the artist William McTaggart. On 30 September 1869 he married Helen Young (d. 1871) who bore him one daughter and in 1872 he married Eliza Thomson with whom he had two daughters and who survived him. Two of his sons, John (1860 – 1924) and Joseph Morris (1863 – 1936) became artists; John was Director of the Glasgow School of Art from 1918 to 1924. By 1871 he had moved with his family; wife Helen, daughter Marjory and sons James, John and Joseph and his mother Marjory from Cathedral Street to 183 Sauchiehall Street. He also employed a general servant. He is described in the census as a ‘portrait painter’. In 1881, Joseph was living at 5 La Belle Place, Glasgow with Eliza, two sons and four daughters. He later moved to 11 Blythswood Square, Glasgow. In the 1901 census he was still at this address with his wife Eliza, sons John and Joseph and daughter Mary and Bessie. His occupation is ‘portrait and marine painter’. Joseph Henderson painted many of his seascapes at Ballantrae in Ayrshire. At the beginning of July 1908, he again travelled to the Ayrshire coast. However, he succumbed to heart failure and died at Kintyre View, Ballantrae, on 17 July 1908 aged 76 and was buried in Sighthill cemetery in Glasgow. A commemorative exhibition of his works was held at the RGI in November of that year. A full obituary was published in the Glasgow Herald. As well as his devotion to art, Joseph Henderson was a keen angler and golfer. A contemporary account states that he was ‘frank and genial, with an inexhaustible fund of good spirits and a ready appreciation of humour, of which he himself possesses no small share’. Thirty-six of his paintings are held in UK public collections.

Intriguing porcelain layer. Hortense RICHARD (1847-1900). Caster. By James Bertrand. With a certain irony, he paints a musical duet or a contest between Euterpe and a nightingale. The patroness of music, sitting naked, struggles to match the night singer. Although their efforts are multi-directional, a rather graceful, albeit contradictory duet is emerging. The elongated vertical format and color scheme subtly stylize the ancient designs of Rome. Signature of the author at the bottom right. On the back of the sheet and frame are the name and data of the author`s Parisian workshop. Reservoir dimensions: 32 x 11.5 cm. Width: 29cm, Height: 47cm, Depth: 6cm, Weight: 2.650kg, Condition: Good, Material: Porcelain, Hand Painted, ID: ID-ANTQ-8032
Icon of the Intercession of the Most Holy Theotokos in a silver frame and icon case. It is an unusual iconography that emphasizes the event, the lower register of the icon with Roman the Sweet Singer, the couple of emperors, etc. The upper tier, with the worship of Christ, is unexpectedly turned to the right. The frame is made in Gilded silver. Russia, Moscow 19th century. Icon size without icon case 22 x 26.5 cm Width: 36.5cm, Height: 41cm, Depth: 7cm, Weight: 2kg, Condition: Good, with traces of use, Material: Gilding, ID: ID-ANTQ-8363
The image of the Protection of the Most Holy Theotokos. Midthird quarter of the 19th century. Possibly Vetka. The image, especially revered in Rus`, is a centric, Novgorod composition, in which the memory of getting rid of the Slavic raid on Constantinople in the 7th century is recorded. Then the weekly veneration of the protection of the Mother of God, which grew into a religious procession, saved the city. This solemnly fixes the upper case of the icon. In the lower one, the sweet singer Roman before the emperor and the queen sings hosanna to the Mother of God and Her intercession. In the right stamp, behind the pillar - the scene of the prophetic visitation of Roman by the Mother of God. Clean and precise writing on gold depicts the outline of a temple with five domes, with a bell tower and an annex at the top. The catchy pictorial coloring, including the upcoming ones (St. Nicholas, Evdokia, Agripina and the Archangel Radeniya) is similar to the manner of the Vetka masters of the middle third quarter of the 19th century. Icon dimensions: 44x37 cm. Width: 37cm, Height: 44cm, Depth: 3.5cm, Weight: 5kg, Condition: Good, Material: Wood, gesso, gilding, tempera, ID: ID-ANTQ-7884
