ENGLISH, C.1400-1500

Provenance
This candlestick was discovered by the vendor in their garden of their 14th century house in Norfolk.
Catalogue Note
This candlestick forms part of a small group recognised as the earliest stable form of copperalloy candlestick manufactured in England in the late 14th and 15th century. At first glance it is comparable to the so-called ‘Bunsen Burner’ candlesticks of similar date, namely in the design of the stem and socket. However, the base design is completely different and far rarer; it is concave and not simply straight-sided. The candlestick’s fine patination implies an archaeological recovery and the crisp detail retained implies it was ‘lost’ when fairly new.

Provenance
Purchased from a house sale in Kent in the 1920s (presumably Halstead Place). Sold anonymously by Phillips, Fine Furniture, Clocks, Rugs and Works of Art, 28th March 1997, lot 237 to the present vendor.
Literature
See Geoffrey de Bellaigue, 'The Waterloo Elm' in Furniture History Journal XIV, 1978, pp. 14-18, for a discussion of the Waterloo Elm tree and the chair made for the Prince Regent.
Catalogue Note
The ancient Waterloo Elm stood on elevated ground overlooking the fields of the Battle of Waterloo. It marked the very spot from which Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington, surveyed the French troops before defeating Napoleon in 1815. The tree soon became a celebrated landmark and a powerful emblem of Liberty. Patriotic visitors made pilgrimages to the site, often removing small fragments as keepsakes. By 1818, the once-mighty elm had been reduced to little more than a stripped trunk.
As the remains were being felled by its owner, they were purchased by John George Children (1777-1852) , Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries. Upon returning to England, Children commissioned Thomas Chippendale Junior to create a triumphal throne from the timber for the Prince Regent, delivered in 1821. A second chair was made for Children’s daughter, Anna, and was later presented to the Duke of Wellington. Children also sold portions of the remaining timber to the Duke of Rutland, who commissioned another chair, now preserved at Belvoir Castle.
Anna later recorded that at Halstead Place, Kent, her father kept ‘a small stand made … out of the portion of the tree with the bark on … a work table and a cabinet for minerals’—all fashioned from the historic elm.
Following Children’s death in 1852, Anna inherited the estate. Halstead Place and its contents were dispersed in 1920, though no surviving inventory lists the furnishings. The present cabinet was originally acquired at a house sale in Kent in the 1920s. The stand and work table mentioned by Anna remain untraced.
A very similar cabinet made from the Waterloo Elm was sold by Christie's, Important English Furniture and Carpets, 6th July 2000, lot 10 for £25,580 (including premium) and a reading table was also sold by Christie's, Out of the Ordinary: The Discerning and Individual Taste of Harris Lindsay and Christopher Gibbs, 10th May 2006, lot 140 for £38,400 (including premium).

later mounted on a giallo antico and black marble plinth, together with a French bronze figure of Mercury after Giambologna, on a Siena marble plinth (2) 31.2cm high (Antinous overall), 47.7cm high (Mercury overall)
Catalogue Note
The original marble sculpure was bought by Pope Paul III (1534-1549) to decorate a niche in the Courtyard of Statues (Cortile delle Statue). It was found around 1540 in the gardens surrounding the Mausoleum of Hadrian (Castel Sant’Angelo) and for this reason it was long held to be a statue of Antinous, the Emperor Hadrian’s favourite. The original certainly dates from the time of Hadrian, and shows Hermes in his role as Psychopompos, who guides the souls of the dead to the Underworld.
The god is shown awaiting the deceased, melancholy and with his gaze lowered; his travelling cloak is thrown over his shoulder and wrapped around his forearm.

Catalogue Note
These models depict two of the most celebrated ancient monuments in the Roman Forum: the Temple of Vespasian and Titus and the Temple of Castor and Pollux. By the eighteenth century, these ruins had become essential sights for travellers undertaking the Grand Tour, admired as evocative remnants of Rome's Imperial past. The three surviving Corinthian columns of each temple formed a dramatic landmark that attracted artists, antiquarians, and collectors alike.
The Temple of Castor and Pollux, originally dedicated in 484 BCE, commemorated the legendary twin sons of Jupiter and played an important role in Roman political and civic life. Nearby, the Temple of Vespasian and Titus was erected in the late first century CE to honour the deified emperors Vespasian and Titus. Together, the monuments embodied the longevity and grandeur of Roman civilisation. Images of these ruins were widely circulated through paintings, prints, and souvenirs purchased by Grand Tour travellers. Such representations combined archaeological interest with picturesque appeal, reflecting contemporary fascination with the classical world and the enduring legacy of ancient Rome.

AN ITALIAN PATINATED BRONZE GRAND TOUR BUST OF THE PSEUDO SENECA AFTER THE ANTIQUE, CAST BY G. SOMMER, NAPLES, LATE 19TH CENTURY
with polychrome inlaid eyes, and stamped 'G. Sommer Napoli' on a marble socle 46.8cm high
Catalogue Note
This bust represents the figure long known as the "Pseudo-Seneca," one of the most celebrated images of antiquity collected and reproduced during the Grand Tour. Discovered in Rome and widely admired from the Renaissance onwards, the sculpture was traditionally identified as the Roman Stoic philosopher Seneca on account of its gaunt features, furrowed brow, and intensely expressive countenance, which appeared to embody the virtues of wisdom, intellectual labour, and moral endurance associated with the philosopher.
By the eighteenth century, the bust had become an iconic example of ancient portraiture and was frequently copied in marble, bronze, plaster, and engraved form for collectors and travellers. Its dramatic realism appealed strongly to contemporary tastes, which valued the apparent psychological insight conveyed by ancient portraits.
Modern scholarship has demonstrated that the identification with Seneca is incorrect, and the sitter remains unknown. The sculpture is now generally regarded as a Hellenistic portrait of an unidentified poet, intellectual, or public figure. Despite this reassessment, the traditional name "PseudoSeneca" continues to be used, reflecting the bust's long history of reception and its influence on European perceptions of classical philosophy and character.

Catalogue Note
This sculpture depicts an idealised youthful figure traditionally identified either as Apollo, the god of light, music, and prophecy, or as a beautiful youth known in earlier antiquarian literature as ‘Mellephebe’. The original bust was discovered in 1752 at the Villa dei Papiri in Herculaneum, it currently resides in the National Archaeological Museum of Naples.

A RARE LEAD EQUESTRIAN FIGURE OF KING GEORGE II ATTRIBUTED TO JOHN MICHAEL RYSBRACK, (FLEMISH 1694-1770), C.1730)
the monarch originally modelled astride a horse, the horse now absent, wearing a flowing wig, classical armour, and a cloak, a baton formally in his right hand, mounted later on a white marble cylinder plinth (2)
32.3cm high
Catalogue Note
This lead figure represents King George II (1683–1760), and is attributed to the eminent sculptor John Michael Rysbrack, one of the leading figures in British sculpture during the first half of the eighteenth century. Rysbrack was renowned for his portraits of members of the royal family, aristocracy, and political elite, helping to establish a monumental style that shaped British public sculpture for generations.
In 1732 the Corporation of the City of Dublin declared it's intention to raise an equestrian monument to George II following in the tradition established in 1717 when John Nost the Elder (1678-1729) had supplied an equestrian sculpture of George I to stand on the Essex Bridge in the heart of the Irish capital.. Michael Rysbrack and Peter Scheemakers both submitted models (now lost) and it is most likely that the present lead figure of George II relates to the former's submission and bears similarities to his equestrian monument of William III commissioned by the City of Bristol.

Catalogue Note
This lively terracotta group exemplifies the playful elegance and technical virtuosity of the French sculptor Claude Michel (1738–1814), known as Clodion.

FIREARMS
Lots marked Ƒ in the catalogue, or by any other means identified as controlled firearms, are subject to the UK firearms/shotgun licencing regime, and should only be viewed/purchased by individuals with appropriate licences. It is the responsibility of the bidders to ensure that they are legally authorised to acquire the lot that they are bidding for. In the event that such a lot is successfully bid for by an individual who is not authorised to possess it, that individual will be required to pay for it, but will not be allowed to take physical possession of it. The auctioneers will reoffer the lot on behalf of the buyer in a future auction; or may accept instructions to dispose of it by some other legal means, at their discretion.
VALUATIONS
Valuations are a core part of our business and are usually carried out by a senior specialist or director. Accuracy, speed and above all confidentiality are paramount.
INSURANCE VALUATIONS
Written valuations for insurance can vary from a single item to a large estate. Before starting we discuss the various options available so that the valuation is specifically tailored to individual clients needs.
For valuations of an entire house contents an itemised bound valuation is produced and can be accompanied by photographs when required. In addition to providing an inventory, written valuations can prevent painful arguments with a loss adjuster in the event of a claim.
Woolley & Wallis valuations are accepted by all leading insurance companies.
PROBATE VALUATIONS
We offer a speedy and professional service for executors and trustees and provide bound valuations for probate and duplicate copies when required. Since security is often a consideration, we can usually arrange for a house to be cleared and sent for auction, our Valuations Department ensures that executors are informed of which sales are involved and the results thereof.
We also carry out valuations for Family Division, Capital Gains Tax, and Private Treaty Sales.
