Est: £3,000 - £5,000
* Mitchell (William Frederick, 1845-1914). An archive of over 400 pen and ink drawings of naval ships, destroyers cruisers and other pre-World War I vessels, mostly circa 1901-1914, all pen and ink with occasional pencil and scattered touches of watercolour and gouache but generally plain, mostly apparently final tracing and all numbered (circa 2000-3118) and all but a few signed ‘W. Fred Mitchell’ and mostly dated, some on lined paper, occasional notes for preparation for publication in Brassey’s Naval Annual, etc., the majority within pen and ink rules and with name of vessel in capital inked letter beneath lower rule, 22 on sheet sizes approximately 26.5 x 37.5cm (10.5 x 14.75in), 2 slightly larger, the remainder drawn to rectos of 336 sheets, approximately 19 x 28.5cm (7.5 x 11in), of these 56 sheets with 2 half-page drawings, all sheets with versos blank, scattered minor marks and corner pinholes, but generally VG, the collection now neatly presented in clear sleeves in 4 modern folders. An impressive collection of what would appear to be Mitchell’s drawings for his own reference collection. Mitchell numbered his works consecutively and the identification numbers run to more than 3,500 works. This archive therefore records over 10% of his entire output. Many of the drawings would have been used for Brassey’s Naval Annual and similar works, and many show the printer’s markings and size mark-ups, while others would have been preparatory studies for the watercolours and oil paintings for which he is now best known.

WILLIAM FREDERICK MITCHELL (1845-1914) The battleship Neptune at anchor offshore at dusk Watercolour Signed and inscribed W.F. Mitchell 1879-1938 (lower left) 5 x 7½in. (12.5 x 19cm.); together with a preparatory sketch for the battleship Albemarle, pen and ink heightened with watercolour, signed W. Fred Mitchell (lower right) -- 6½ x 9in. (16.5 x 23cm.) (2) Built by Dudgeon at Millwall, Neptune was laid down in 1874 and launched in 1878 for the Brazilian Navy as the Independencia but purchased for the Royal Navy prior to completion, thanks to the panic caused by a potential war with Russia. First commissioned in 1883, her sea-going career proved a short one and she was sold for scrapping in 1903; on her final passage down the harbour at Portsmouth whilst en route to the breakers, she managed to ram Victory and collide with Hero thereby cementing her already somewhat tarnished reputation. Albemarle was one of the six 'Duncan' class pre-'Dreadnought' battleships ordered in 1898-99. Built at Chatham, launched in March 1901 and completed in 1903, Albemarle sported a main armament of 4-12in. guns and, despite her age, rendered useful service in the Great War before being scrapped in 1920. This lot is signed and inscribed W.F. Mitchell 1879-1038 (lower left) and not as stated in the catalogue, and further inscribed "Neptune"-1038 on the reverse. 1038 is Mitchell's personal catalogue number.
