          ADAM BUCK (1759-1833) Portrait of William Bellingham Budworth and his Sister Emma Mary, small full length, on a balcony Signed, inscribed and dated 'Adam Buck 1795 London' Coloured chalks and watercolour, 34.5 x 27cm Provenance: Christies, London, 1992 British Drawings and Watercolours, lot 58 Extensively inscribed on the reverse of the frame 'In Wax/William Bellingh . . . udworth/painted in Nove 1795 . . . six years/and a Half/Emma Bud . . . was painted at the same time - The Artist Mr. Adam/Bucklately from . . . and who ever/ . . . to draw', and further inscribed on a 'W Bellingham Palmer/died 1853/&/Emma Mary Budworth Palmer/died sister of the above & Mother of W./Alex. Mackinnow died 1835'; coloured chalks and watercolour, watermark J. Whatman. William Bellingham Budworth (1789/1853) and Emma Mary Budworth (1790-1835) were the children of Joseph Budworth (1756-1815), F.S.A. and writer, and Eliza palmer his wife. In 1811 Joseph Budworth succeeded in the right of his wife to the name and estates of her brother Roger Palmer of Ruth and Palmerstown, Co. Mayo. In 1812 Emma Mary Palmer, as she had become, married William Alexander Mackinnon (1784-1870), M.P. for Lymington, later 33rd chief of Clan Fuigon. At the time she was considered one of the most beautiful women in the country. Adam Buck (1759–1833), the elder son of the silversmith Jonathan Buck, was born on Castle Street, Cork. According to the contemporary critic Anthony Pasquin, who may have been personally acquainted with him, Buck was self-taught. He gained recognition as a painter of miniatures and small portraits in watercolour, working in Cork and Dublin for several years before moving to London in 1795. From that year onwards, he exhibited regularly at the Royal Academy until his death in 1833. His sole recorded exhibition in Ireland took place at the Royal Hibernian Academy in 1802. Buck's patrons included royalty, such as the Duke of York (1804, 1812), alongside prominent figures in politics, the military, the clergy, and the theatre, many of whom had Irish connections. He also portrayed members of his own family. His two children, Alfred and Sisley, both followed in his footsteps as miniature painters. Buck is particularly noted for his romantic and sentimental portrayals, especially of mothers and children. Many of Buck’s drawings were engraved, and a series of coloured aquatint plates were produced to illustrate Laurence Sterne’s Sentimental Journey. His works are held in major collections, including the Victoria and Albert Museum, the National Portrait Gallery, the British Museum, and the National Gallery of Ireland.

The artist was a prolific portraitist who enjoyed success in his lifetime, producing a number of portraits which are similar to the present work, including those of Peter and Bernard Burke (Peter Darvall, A Regency Buck: Adam Buck, 2015, no.135 and no.136), painted in 1825 and 1828 respectively, just after the present work.

          Est: £1,200 - £1,800

          ADAM BUCK (IRISH 1759-1833) A pair of portrait miniatures of Caroline Hardwick (née Spencer) (1778-1834) and Joseph Hardwick (1775-1844); she in white dress with frilled border and belt with ‘Wedgwood’ clasp; he in a black coat with a white stock, dated 1803 Watercolour on ivory, both inscribed, signed and dated on the front ‘Buck/1803’ Both cased in gold frames (not matching) and in matching red leather travelling cases with inserts inscribed with sitter’s details (Inscription in the case of Joseph Hardwick’s portrait reads: ‘Joseph, youngest son of John & Mary Hardwick of Credenhill, Herefordshire. Born October 14th 1775. Married Caroline Willshen October 5th 1805. Died November 9th 1844.’/ Inscription in the case of Caroline Hardwick’s portrait reads: ‘Caroline, third daughter of Benjamin & Lydia Willshen of Aldenham, Herts. Born January 28th 1778. Married Joseph Hardwick October 5th 1805. Died July 10th 1834.’ Oval, 2 3/4in (70mm) high (2) Provenance European Private Collection Adam Buck was primarily a miniaturist, but his personal interest (bordering on obsession) with Classicism crossed into his professional life. Buck spent twenty-five years in his native Ireland before moving to London in 1795 (where the present pair of portraits would have been painted). His love of classicism is echoed here in the inclusion of a fashionable Jasper ware belt buckle worn for her miniature portrait by Caroline Hardwick, possibly made by Josiah Wedgwood and Sons. Caroline’s Neoclassical look was extremely fashionable at this date, her ‘Empire’ style, simple dress and cropped, curled hair marking her out as a modish young woman. Her husband is dressed in the more conventional fashion of the day, only his hairstyle, brushed forwards with longer sideburns, marks him out as a fashionable partner to his future wife. The date of this pair of portraits precedes that of the Hardwick’s marriage by two years, suggesting that these were perhaps commissioned to celebrate the betrothal of the couple. This is also indicated by the inclusion of a lock of Joseph’s hair on the reverse of his portrait, embellished with an ornamental combination of both Joseph’s and Caroline’s initials, ‘JHC’. Although many miniatures would have been conceived as a pair (for exchange between betrothed or married couples), they are rarely still together as in this case. By the time this pair of portraits were painted, Buck was well-established as a miniaturist and moving within circles of like-minded individuals (including the Prince of Wales, the Duke of York and the art collector Thomas Hope, all of whom were admirers of the Antique). Alongside his miniatures, Buck offered elegant watercolour portraits, often comprising of several individuals and occasionally interiors which included Neoclassical furniture. His miniatures painted in watercolour on ivory, like the present pair, are immediately recognisable from their bright blue sky backgrounds and the crisp delineation of the sitter’s features.
