A collection of fine Queen Anne needlework panels, mostly first quarter 18th century, likely part of the same suite, each in gros and petit point, the central fields worked with figural scenes, including a nobleman holding a baton, possibly Charles II, the panel 50 x 46cm excluding later cushion; a scene of a lady, possibly Queen Anne, lying on a daybed surrounded by attendants and animals, approximately 52 x 46 excluding later cushion; two mythologically themed panels of Diana and Endymion and Venus and Cupid respectively, approximately 53cm long; another with a courtly couple in a garden; and three further, smaller, with animals, one of which mounted to a cushion; each scene contained within a floral and strapwork reserve Provenance: Private Collection, The Manor House, Stanford in the Vale, Oxfordshire Condition Report: The panels are very vibrant in colour and overall quite well preserved, aside from some slight fading to skin, costume and sky tones in some of the panels. Some of the edges have slightly unravelled, and two of the panels mounted to cushions (standing nobleman and dog seated in landscape) have areas of slight tearing. Some have residue to reverse likely from having been previously attached to something else. For reference to condition of individual panels, please refer to additional lot images.
