He served in France from 27 September 1914 with “N” Battery, Royal Horse Artillery, and likely witnessed extensive action at the Battle of Neuve Chapelle from 10-13 March 1915. Initially successful in destroying the German wire, the engagement proved that trench defences could be breached with careful preparation and disguise, but any significant advance was impossible owing to the shell crisis of 1915. Transferred to the Royal Field Artillery as Acting Bombardier, Shaw was transferred to Section B Army Reserve on 24 December 1919, his character noted as ‘honest, sober, intelligent, good’. He later served on the North West Frontier of India with “M” Battery, Royal Horse Artillery and was discharged in 1922. Sold with three original Certificates of transfer and demobilisation, Third Class Certificate of Education and correspondence from the War Office confirming entitlement to IGSM and clasp, recording the recipient’s address in 1924 as 47 Shelley Avenue, Manor Park, London.

ITALIAN SCHOOL (18TH CENTURY) ENDYMION SLEEPING WITH HIS DOG BESIDE HIM Oil on canvas, en grisaille 163 x 112cm (64 x 44 in.) Provenance: Sir John Richardson (1924-2019), New York (photographed in situ in 'The Great Room' for New York Magazine, 18 February 2014)Literature: Apollonius of Rhodes, Argonautica H. S. Jones, A Catalogue of the Ancient Sculptures Preserved in the Municipal Collections of Rome: The Sculptures of the Museo Capitolino, Oxford, 1912 D. E. Robinson, 'A Question of the Imprint of Wedgwood in the Longer Poems of Keats', Keats-Shelley Journal 16, 1967, 23-28 Though several varying myths regarding Endymion survive to us from antiquity, the present scene depicts him as a youthful shepherd asleep on Mount Latmus. One version of the myth sees Jupiter punish the youth for pursuing a romantic interest in Juno, however this present painting likely depicts the latter variant: Selene, Titan goddess of the moon so loved Endymion's beauty, she asked Jupiter to grant him eternal youth. Whatever the case, Jupiter granted Selene's wish, placing Endymion into an eternal sleep so Selene could visit him every night to admire his beauty.This elegantly painted grisaille, a technique that mimics bas-reliefs and sculpture, depicts Endymion sleeping with his dog beside him. It is based on a second-century A.D. Roman bas-relief currently housed in the Capitoline Museum in Rome. Seated on a rock asleep, the figure's long locks of gently curled hair frame his face. Content in his slumber, Endymion's right arm hangs tenderly down, whilst his left arm rests on his bent knee. Over his left arm and covering partially the rock on which he sleeps is an intricately draped chlamys. Appearing as if it could almost spring to life, a dog is depicted upright and animated, attempting to rouse Endymion from his peaceful, dormant state. Whilst for the most part, the painting appears to imitate its ancient counterpart, the facial features here suggest a more tranquil state of sleep when compared to the flat expression of the marble bas-relief.Artists such as the gem engraver Nathaniel Marchant and the ceramicist Josiah Wedgwood both produced Grand Tour artworks depicting the Capitoline Museum bas-relief. This painting reflects the renewed interest in classical art during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, drawing inspiration from Roman antiquities. It skilfully captures the realism of Imperial Roman sculpture, blending classical ideals with lifelike precision.This lot belonged to Sir John Richardson, art historian and author of the magisterial biography of Pablo Picasso, the first volume of which was published in 1991 and which won the Whitbread book of the year award. Sir John Richardson gave the eulogy at Andy Warhol's funeral. Condition Report: The canvas is lined and the paint surface is slightly dirty with a clear but uneven varnish. The broad weave of the canvas has resulted in a surface that is slightly pock-marked with pinprick losses scattered particularly in the upper half of the painting. There is visible retouching to a repaired horizontal tear in the upper left corner, approx. 17cm. long. There are also fine lines of visible retouching to the network of craquelure in the shadow behind Endymion. Inspection under ultraviolet light confirms the aforementioned retouching and further reveals retouching to a small horizontal tear, just above the centre of the lower margin, approx. 5 cm. long. Otherwise only a handful of spot retouchings are visible, for example above the figure's belly button and in the shoulder of the dog. The painting presents well in its current state and is in overall good condition.Condition Report Disclaimer
