Girl-in-the-Swing figures were formerly attributed to Chelsea. Documentary evidence found in France (see Documentation, Dragesco, 1993), suggests strongly that they were made by Charles Gouyn, whose address was at the Turk's Head, Bennet Street, St James's, London, from 1735 to 1783. It is not known conclusively that this was where the figure's were made, nor who the modeller or modellers were. The figures of Hercules and Omphale were taken from an engraving by Laurent Cars (1699-1771) of 1728, after the painting of 1724 by François Lemoyene, now in the Louvre. A model with this title was listed in the Vincennes porcelain factory's inventory of October 1752, and two different versions of it have been recorded, one closely related to the painting which could have been the inspiration for the English group. The other is a different composition in which Omphale sits beside Hercules with Cupid beside her. reference term-106451 adlib-term-106451 9cdfd62c-ee07-3884-ae08-c797aad08631 18th Century, Mid reference term-107736 adlib-term-107736 e93a8dd1-d76d-320b-be9b-afa352e322a1 George II reference term-106216 adlib-term-106216 825b8379-ec94-388e-9a59-624e40c090d0 literal England England country London probably lead reference term-107733 adlib-term-107733 00160189-e3ce-3796-a88b-5aa8d6c808c4 lead-glaze reference term-37637 adlib-term-37637 89b09133-dc0a-3a88-bd40-5aef1ad30ecb soft-paste porcelain Height cm 23.8 Width cm 15.5 reference media-17938 adlib-media-17938 cfed2337-91d5-3164-9e52-f20fbb764594 jpeg aa/aa20/EC_22_1941.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 516 1616278814335 1 image jpeg aa/aa20/mid_EC_22_1941.jpg 1 height pixels 736 width pixels 500 1616278814335 1 image jpeg aa/aa20/EC_22_1941.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 516 1616278814335 1 image jpeg aa/aa20/preview_EC_22_1941.jpg 1 height pixels 368 width pixels 250 1616278814335 1 image 0 media image reference media-1078704939 portfolio portfolio-media-1078704939 681bff18-ad81-3f15-835b-e19c9b333e5e jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/432/938/large_EC_22_1941_200809_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1536 width pixels 1024 1529198882000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/432/938/mid_EC_22_1941_200809_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 750 width pixels 500 1529198882000 1 image EC.22-1941_200809_mfj22_mas.tif 1529198882000 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/432/938/preview_EC_22_1941_200809_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 250 1529198882000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/432/938/EC_22_1941_200809_mfj22_mas.ptif 1 height pixels 4368 width pixels 2912 1529198882000 1 image 1 media image reference media-2144829779 portfolio portfolio-media-2144829779 bc76ddef-d33c-3d9d-ba76-aef2e4a1a9d7 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/626/631/large_EC_22_1941_200809_mfj22_dc1.jpg 1 height pixels 1413 width pixels 1024 1550048630000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/626/631/mid_EC_22_1941_200809_mfj22_dc1.jpg 1 height pixels 690 width pixels 500 1550048630000 1 image EC.22-1941_200809_mfj22_dc1.jpg 1550048630000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/626/631/preview_EC_22_1941_200809_mfj22_dc1.jpg 1 height pixels 345 width pixels 250 1550048630000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/626/631/EC_22_1941_200809_mfj22_dc1.ptif 1 height pixels 3982 width pixels 2885 1550048630000 1 image 2 media image reference media-35312921 portfolio portfolio-media-35312921 f534031f-d940-396b-9f0b-29fa1ae28b64 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/1/49/190/large_EC_22_1941_200809_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1536 width pixels 1024 1695949512000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/1/49/190/mid_EC_22_1941_200809_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 750 width pixels 500 1695949512000 1 image EC.22-1941_200809_mfj22_mas.tif 1695949512000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/1/49/190/preview_EC_22_1941_200809_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 250 1695949512000 1 image 3 media image reference term-110220 adlib-term-110220 e22d3544-a393-3f19-9be4-dc2632ca9942 figure group history note Dr Bellamy Gardner; sold Sotheby's, 12 June 1941, Catalogue of the Celebrated Collection of Chelsea Porcelain, English Ceramics and Enamels, the property of Dr and Mrs Bellamy Gardner, p. 6, lot 10; given by the National Art Collections Fund as trustee of the R.S.
