Wick Antiques was established by Charles Wallrock in the early 1980s. Having grown up in the Antiques world Charles developed an extensive wealth of knowledge. Starting out as a ‘man with a van’ he quickly gained a good reputation and embarked on a longstanding relationship with Harrods. He was later joined by his wife, Caroline Wallrock. Caroline having completed a Persian degree, went on to study at Christie’s fine art and then joined Sotheby’s specializing in Islamic and Japanese works of art, as well as taking the occasional auction. Together they make a formidable team with extensive knowledge and buy and sell some of the best items on the market.

Description
Two gouache paintings by de Simone of ‘Latona’, one showing the gaffe rigged yawl, in calm seas flying the Royal Thames Yacht Club burgee, the other showing her with reduced canvas in heavy weather.
Footnotes: Antonio de Simone (1851-1907) was the son of the Italian seaport oil painter Tommaso de Simone. Antonio worked in watercolour and gouache, specialising in capturing nearly all the great society yachts of the period as they visited Naples. Owners commissioned these portraits as their vessels lay at anchor under Mount Vesuvius. Latona was a yawl belonging to G.E. Wood from London, with sails by Ratsey and Lapthorn, registered in the Lloyds Yacht Register of 1886-7.
