DUFF NORWICH: (1792-1862) British Admiral whose father, Captain George Duff, was killed at the Battle of Trafalgar, 1805. Manuscript D.S., N Duff, Captain Royal Navy, one page, oblong 8vo, London, 7th June 1839. The document admits Captain G. A. Crofton of the Royal Navy and his party `to the exhibition of models for the Nelson Monument`. Signed by Duff in his capacity as a member of the committee. VG Duff`s document refers to Nelson`s Column which stands in Trafalgar Square, London, and was constructed between 1840-43. In February 1838 a group of 121 peers, politicians and other gentry formed a committee to raise a monument to Lord Nelson, funded by public subscription, and the Government agreed to provide a site in Trafalgar Square, in front of the newly completed National Gallery. A competition was held for designs, the deadline for submissions being 31st January 1839. The winning entry, chosen by a sub-committee headed by the Duke of Wellington, was a design by William Railton for a Corinthian column surmounted by a statue of Nelson, and flanked by four sculpted lions. The second prize was won by Edward Hodges Baily who suggested an obelisk surrounded by sculptures. Criticism of the organisation of the competition caused it to be rerun. Railton submitted a slightly revised design, and was once again declared the winner, with the stipulation that the statue of Nelson should be made by Baily.

ENGLISH SCHOOL, EARLY 18TH CENTURYALLEGORICAL PORTRAIT OF A LADYseated three quarter length in a blue mantle with a sandglass, obelisk and other buildings beyond, panel, 29 x 40cmProvenance: The Hon Catherine Harpur (1682-1744/5), daughter of Thomas, 2nd Lord Crewe of Stene and widow of Sir John Harpur, 4th Baronet, of Calke Abbey, Derbyshire. Specifically bequeathed by her will (written on 6 June 1743) to her daughter, Lady Jemima Palmer (d1768) wife of Sir Thomas Palmer of Carlton Curlieu, Leicestershire.This fascinating rediscovery of a picture known only from its description in Catherine Harpur`s will left Calke Abbey, that quintessential time capsule of a grand house, at an early date. In her Will the testatrix describes the present painting as "A picture with a Lady reading with an hour Glass ...". This is confirmed by the label verso presumably written by her son and which is signed with the initials TP and dated, probably, January [17]83. The present picture, which was clearly regarded as one of some importance would have hung at Calke Abbey (National Trust) and, possibly on account of its small size, was amongst a number of items of special personal significance taken with her when Lady Harpur removed to Luffenham, Rutland on the death of her husband in 1741.The contemplative pose, open book (in which can just be made out the letters `a n and t` and 29) sandglass, butterfly, bird and obelisk all vanitas symbols of the emptiness of earthly life irrespective of wealth or status.A portrait of the Hon Catherine Crewe, Lady Harpur with one of her children by Charles Jervas (c1675-1739) is at Calke Abbey (National Trust).++Localised instability of the medium with a few small spots of flaking near the sitter`s left leg, localised bitumenisation principally around the sitter`s left elbow, the varnish very dirty, the support in excellent condition free from shrinkage cracks or warping and long undisturbed in the present early 18th c ebonised frame which could well be original

Cheselden (William). Osteographia, Or the Anatomy of the Bones, 1st edition, 1733, engraved frontispiece, title with engraved vignette, engraved royal arms on separate sheet, engraved dedication, (with deer skeleton to verso), 29 engraved illustrations, 112 engraved plates (complete), comprising two sets of plates numbered I-LVI by Jacob Schijnvoet and Gerard van der Gucht, first set lettered with explanatory text to verso, second set unlettered and without text, plate LVI of first set with deer skeleton to verso; plate LVI of the second set with obelisk ruin in red, historiated initials, occasional light spotting and toning, endpapers renewed, hinges reinforced, contemporary half calf, rebacked, corners chipped, folio. The most famous and among the most artistically interesting osteological atlases ever produced` (Norman), the first full and accurate description of human skeletal anatomy. One of only 400 copies, `which being finished, the plates shall be destroyed that the price of the book may never sink in the possession of the subscribers` (from To the Reader`). The accuracy of the drawing of the large plates of bones is derived from Cheselden`s innovative use of the camera obscura (the use of which is depicted on the title vignette and used for the first time solely for book illustration). The thick paper and large folio format allowed for life-size illustrations of separate human bones. William Cheselden (1688-1752) studied anatomy under William Cowper (1666-1709), becoming full surgeon at St Thomas`s Hospital in 1720. A pioneer of surgical techniques in bladder stone removal and ophthalmics, he is credited with performing the first known successful case of restorative eye surgery on a blind 13-year-old boy, an iridotomy, using a cataract-extraction knife to create an artificial pupil.
