Note: The letters relate that Norm Flayderman purchased this gun and bayonet in 1958 from noted Lexington, Massachusetts artist A. Lassell Ripley. In the notes is a letter from Ripley stating that the gun came from the descendant of Benjamin Hall (1730-1810) from Barrington, New Hampshire with the question whether Hall had been at Lexington and Concord or the Battle of Bunker Hill. He would not have made it to Concord or Lexington in time for the fight, and a search of the New Hampshire records showed that Benjamin Hall of Barrington (there was another Benjamin Hall from the Keene area) was not at Bunker Hill but had arrived for the Siege of Boston not long after the battle. Hall was a member of Captain Titcomb's company, Col. Poor's regiment stationed at Medford and served until his enlistment ran out in the late fall of 1775. While searching the town and county histories for Hall, a History of Dover New Hampshire had a listing for him which stated "He lived in Barrington, was a soldier of the Revolution, commencing at Cambridge, and brought home a remarkable musket." In Kevin Gelinas' article titled "Liege Firearms in New France," his research proves that these Liege-produced small arms were made for service in New France between 1744 and 1747. For more information on the history of these guns, see the above mentioned article in the October 2016 issue of Man at Arms magazine, pp. 23-33. For information on the bayonet, see "The Bayonet in New France 1665-1760" by Erik Goldstein, Museum Restoration Service, 1997, pp. 19-22.

- VICTOR LAGYE (BELGIAN, 1825-1896) "YOUNG
VICTOR LAGYE (BELGIAN, 1825-1896) "YOUNG LOVERS WITH A PET SQUIRREL" Oil on wood panel. Signed 'V. Lagye XX' (lower right).
Catalogue Note: Born in Ghent, northeast of Brussels, Victor Lagye began his studies at the Academy of Anvers. There he was taught by Baron HendrikJan-Augustyn Leys (1815-1869), an important artist and teacher in many disciplines.
Lagye went to Paris for a tour of the museums and ateliers for a brief time before going on to Rome in 1843. At this time in Italy, there was considerable unrest in the land. After the fall of the Napoleonic Empire the nine states of the Italian peninsula came under the control of Austria. That was in 1815, and since that time there were numerous revolutionary uprisings.
Lagye, a student in Rome, aligned himself with the liberal movement that was intent on unifying Italy. The University at which he was studying formed a battalion and served under Garibaldi. Unfortunately, we do not know precisely in what capacity Lagye participated in these revolutionary activities. We do know however that following the suppression of Garibaldi's forces Lagye returned to Belgium in 1849.
Lagye settled in Anvers once again to paint and teach at the Academy along side his old teacher Hendrik Leys. In this fashion he spent the rest of his life, collecting awards of merit along the way. One such was to be named a Chevalier of the order of Leopold in 1872. He created frescoes for a number of State buildings and private homes.
In 1891 Lagye was named a professor supedeurof art at the Institute in Brussels and made its' director in 1895.
Young Lovers with a Pet Squirrel is a wonderful example of a style of painting that is most closely associated with the English Pre-Raphael movement that reached its height in the 1860's. Belgium had a parallel movement of romantic and historical painting of its own at the same time. As it so happens, Lagye's teacher, Hendrik Leys was the most
important exponent of this manner of painting.
Certainly there is little doubt then that Lagye was influenced by his teacher and the popular trend in this area of genre painting.
Young Lovers with a Pet Squirrel displays Lagye's very fine draughtsmanship and a deftness of brushwork that is rarely seen without the classical training that Lagye received.
