            Hercules Brabazon Brabazon,  British 1821-1906-  Carred House, Ragusa;  black chalk and watercolour heightened with touches of white on paper, signed with initials 'HBB' (lower right), inscribed 'Carred House / Ragusa' (lower left), bears inscription 'Brabazon Brabazon / A present from Andrew Devonshire / to Margaret Anne Stuart of Findhorn' on the backing board, 13.2 x 19.6 cm.  Provenance:  Anon. sale, Christie's, London, 6 August 1974, lot 158;  where purchased by Andrew Cavendish, 11th Duke of Devonshire (1920-2004);  by whom gifted to Margaret Anne, Viscountess Stuart of Findhorn (1932-2023).  Private Collection, UK (by descent).  Note:  Brabazon Brabazon is recorded as having travelled to Italy twice - first in 1848 where he sailed from Naples to Palermo, Gibraltar, Seville, Madrid, Bayonne, Bordeaux, and Paris; and then again in 1873-1874, with his nephew, to Nice, Bologna, Florence, Ancona, Brindisi, Alexandria, Egypt and then back to Marseilles via Naples. The artist captured the landscape of the Sicilian town of Ragusa on several occasions, including in another watercolour of similar dimensions - likely originating from the same sketchbook as the present work - which sold at Christie's, London, 25 March 1994, lot 330.  Brabazon's work was admired for its striking modernity by figures ranging from John Ruskin (1819-1900) to John Singer Sargent (1856-1925). The present work particularly exhibits the influence of J.M.W. Turner (1775-1851) on his output. This is evident in Brabazon's patent interest in the depiction of light, with his bold use of colour allowing him to effectively evoke the bright sunlight of Ragusa. Brabazon's watercolours were also informed by the extensive travels which he made throughout his lifetime, not just across Europe, but also to the Middle East, North Africa, and India. Brabazon joined the New English Art Club in 1891, with the encouragement of his friend Singer Sargent, and had his first solo exhibition at the Goupil Gallery the following year in 1892.

            Hercules Brabazon Brabazon, NEAC (1821-1906) Campo San Michele, Venice signed with initials 'HBB' (lower left) watercolour on paper 15.5 x 23cm Provenance: With Walker's Galleries, London, 1958 Exhibited: London, Beaux Arts Gallery, Exhibition of Watercolours and Pastels by the late Hercules Brabazon Brabazon, 1928, no. F35 Brabazon was born in Paris, the younger son of Hercules Sharpe and Anne Mary, daughter of Sir Anthony Brabazon, 1st Bt. In 1832, the family moved to Oaklands, an estate near Sedlescombe, East Sussex. He studied mathematics at Trinity College, Cambridge. While his father envisaged a career in law for him, Brabazon chose a different path and ventured to Rome to pursue his studies in music and art. He enrolled at the prestigious Accademia di Santa Cecilia and Accademia di San Luca. Despite his father's attempts to coax him back by reducing his allowance, Brabazon gained financial independence in 1847 when he inherited family estates in Connaught, under the condition that he would assume the Brabazon surname. This newfound freedom allowed him to embark on a life filled with exploration, artistic study and painting, finding inspiration in the works of artists such as Velázquez and J. M. W. Turner. In 1858, Brabazon inherited the Oaklands estate, but entrusted its management to his brother-in-law as he continued his ventures abroad. His travels took him primarily across Europe, with occasional trips to Africa and India. Preferring to describe himself as a 'gentleman amateur' living 'for Art and Sunshine', he refrained from exhibiting or selling his work until the later years of his life. Encouraged by artist friends, most notably John Singer Sargent, Brabazon finally embraced the idea of exhibiting his work publicly. He made his debut at the New English Art Club and subsequently held successful one-man exhibitions at the Goupil Gallery. Framed 33.5 x 43cm
