7pp, 32mo. On two bifoliums, stitched together. In good condition, lightly aged. Signed 'Agnes Strickland'. A nice letter with interesting content. Begins: 'Feeling all the kindness of most friendly invitation so sensibly as I do, it gives me the greater regret to be compelled to forgo the pleasure you offer me, of joining my friends Mr. & Miss Mackinnon in your charming home on the 8th of Octr. I have been tempted to linger on, in this delightful and hospitable land from day to day and week after week till the very day you have named is, by some strange fatality, that appointed for my imbarkation at Ardrossan with my young friend Lady Augusta Bruce, [(1822-1876), daughter of the Earl of Elgin, later Lady Augusta Elizabeth Frederica Stanley] the sister of Lady Matilda Maxwell, with whom I am at present staying.' She reports that she is going to spend a few days with her sister Mrs Gwillym at Ulverstone, and then I proceed home as quickly as I can via Lincolnshire and Norfolk, to my own home, where I shall have to write at the rate of ten hours a day to make up for all the time I have spent, in endeavouring to gather more information illustrative of the personal history of the Queen of James 2nd Mary D Esté. | The vol in which she makes her appearance must be out early in the new year. This ties me imperatively to time, and compels me to do violence to my own inclinations, when I give up, or rather, I hope I may be permitted to say postpone a visit to Hardwicke Hall in consequence'. She ends with compliments to Sir Thomas Cullum, and 'hoping one day to renew and improve our acquaintance so agreeably commenced'.…

A beautifully detailed and fluidly painted, glazed earthenware plaque showing a woman weeping over the body of a knight, with a hound and two falcons at his feet, set before a sunset-hued shoreline. Signed 'AMcB' on the rear. In fine condition, the colours bright and fresh. The underside with only a tiny 1mm chip to the glaze, which is not visible from the front. An excellent example of Ann Macbeth's ceramic work. Ann Macbeth had links to the Glasgow School of Art as both a student and a teacher for over 30 years. She worked across a range of decorative arts, including embroidery, metalwork, bookbinding, ceramic decoration and china painting, the latter of which she fired herself in her own kiln. She was influential in her advocacy for the accessibility of arts and crafts to all social classes, championing the use of humble materials such as linen and cotton, and she believed that the crafts traditionally produced by women in their spare time should be valued as professional skills and be priced to provide a fair income. She was actively involved with women's suffrage, using her artistic abilities to create banners and textile pieces for demonstrations and to commemorate the 80 hunger strikers held at Holloway prison, as well as becoming involved in direct action herself, for which she was imprisoned: the Glasgow School of Art Archives holds a letter sent by Macbeth to the School's secretary which describes being put in solitary confinement and force-fed for two weeks, and the lasting impact this had on her health.
