Lot 919: Charles Eamer Kempe Studios - two stained glass window designs for Buckingh

Charles Eamer Kempe Studios - two stained glass window designs for Buckingham Palace - one in pencil, the other with sepia watercolour, both studies for the face of the Duke of Clarence as St. George, approximately 27cm x 23cm, unframed. The stained glass window was commissioned by Queen Alexandra to commemorate her eldest son who died in 1892, aged 28. Designed by Charles Eamer Kempe's chief cartoonist J. W. Lisle, the window was originally made for the Minister's Staircase, Buckingham Palace - it was damaged in an air raid in 1940
