Regency portrait miniature on ivory of Lieutenant Samuel Costerton, R.N., pictured in formal dress, oval, 5.5 x 5cm, in period ebonised frame. APHA Ref: 73H6SZXKProvenance: By family descent from the sitter.NB: Samuel Costerton was born in Great Yarmouth and entered the Navy in 1803, following the path of his cousin Captain William Fisher, one of Nelson's flagship Commanders. Captain William Fisher (1780-1852) joined the Navy in 1795. In 1827, he invented and demonstrated the use of quick connect hose for watering ships (at the rate of 1 ton in 4 mins). He retired as a Rear Admiral. Samuel Costerton was also active during the Napoleonic conflicts, he was wounded whilst in charge of a boat attacking enemy batteries at Jacotel and was onboard the Nereid when she compelled the enemy's sloop Victor to surrender. He acquitted himself gallantly but was captured during battles in Port Sud-Est in 1810, he was freed during the capitulation of the Isle of France several months later. In 1815 he married Mary Anne Elizabeth Underwood of East Bergholt. Please note although by family tradition the subject is as described, the sitter is clearly not a naval subject and the paper attributing the sitter as Samuel Costerton is likely not accurate.

Jack of Diamonds. George Underwood (b.1947). 'Diamond Jack', oil on linen, signed to the front, framed, 72cm x 51cm. George Underwood was born in 1947. George joined Beckenham Art School in 1963. At art school George Underwood became more and more interested in music. As a result he pursued a career in the music world. Along with life long friend David Bowie he made one record (The King Bees ) and also a solo record under the name Calvin James. After deciding that the music business was not for him, George returned to art studies and then worked in design studios as an illustrator. Initially he specialised in fantasy, horror and science fiction book covers. Many of George Underwood's colleagues in the music business asked him to do various art works for them. This led to George becoming a freelance artist. Art work for the first T Rex album and later David Bowies Hunky Dory and Ziggy Stardust album covers established him as a leading and creative art illustrator. Over this period George produced literally hundreds of book covers, LP and CD covers, advertisements, portraits and drawings. At the start of the 1970s George Underwood started painting in oils. His paintingswere influenced at first by the Viennese School of Fantastic Realism artists which includedErnst Fuchs, Rudolph Hausner and Eric Brauer. George regarded them as contemporary visionaries like Bruegel and Bosch. He was fascinated by their imaginative visions. Imagination is the key word in George's paintings. He rarely uses live models nowadays, prefering to invent people who inhabit their own personal world. George Underwood paintings are held in many private art collections. One of his art collectors, David Bowie, said: George has, over the years, refined his work to the point where I would put him among the top figurative painters coming out of the UK right now. Theres a sublime isolation surrounding his subjects that really touches the viewer, the figures being both heroic and vulnerable simultaneously. Theres a timeless element in the choice of subject matter that overlaps with the mythical world of Odd Nerdrum, say. Now that a huge shift to painting is taking place, I would expect to see Georges name pushed further and further to the front. www.georgeunderwood.com.
