    • § Philip Core (1951-1989)
      Oct. 26, 2023

      § Philip Core (1951-1989)

      Est: £300 - £500

      § Philip Core (1951-1989) Portrait of Adrian Ffooks, 4th/7th regiment signed and dated 1987 to the reverse oil on board 75 x 45cm Provenance: Gifted to the present owner by the sitter as a wedding gift in 1987 Bearing the distinctive "K squared" insignia, the present lot was gifted to Kit and Kate Hesketh-Harvey upon their wedding in 1987 as a token of gratitude from both the sitter and the artist, who had been introduced to one another by the couple. Earlier in the year, Kit, in collaboration with James Ivory, penned the screenplay for the groundbreaking adaptation of E. M. Forster's Maurice, a poignant gay love story featuring James Wilby and Hugh Grant. During filming, Kit Hesketh-Harvey enlisted the assistance of his friend, Captain Adrian Ffooks, as a stunt double for key riding scenes. Ffooks, who had served in the 4th/7th Royal Dragoon Guards during the 1970s and rode at the Badminton Horse Trials in 1976, was well-equipped for this role. Maurice faced significant challenges during its production, set against the backdrop of the AIDS pandemic and prevailing anti-gay sentiments. In recent times, however, Maurice has become an iconic gay film, earning critical acclaim upon its 2017 re-release. Jim Ivory's unwavering pride in the film underscores its timeless appeal, transcending societal prejudice. Believed to have been in a relationship, both Philip Core and Captain Ffooks tragically passed away. The details of their deaths, possibly due to AIDS, remain unclear.
