Yeates & Son, Dublin - Stephen Mitchell Yeates, born in 1832, was the son of George Mitchell Yeates, an instrument maker in Dublin. Upon his father’s death in 1865, Stephen took over the family business, which had been established as "Instrument Makers and Opticians" in 1790. The shop, originally located at another site, was moved to 2 Grafton Street in 1827, strategically positioned across from Trinity College. This location proved to be advantageous, as the close proximity to the university facilitated a steady stream of business, particularly in the sale and manufacture of scientific instruments used in academia. In 1865, the business was officially renamed Yeates & Son. The company advertised itself as "Instrument Makers to the University," underscoring its relationship with Trinity College. This connection was pivotal, as many of the instruments built by Yeates & Son were utilized by the college for various scientific purposes. Stephen Mitchell Yeates managed the business until his death in 1901. The firm remained a prominent supplier of scientific instruments in Dublin throughout the 19th century. Many of the instruments by Yeates & Son are still housed at Trinity College,

Stereoview Tenerife Charles Piazzi Smyth 3 stereoviews from images made by Charles Piazzi Smyth in 1856, at the temporary observatory on a peak in Tenerife. The views are on light blue, card mounts, 2 containing labels reading, ' Temporary Astronomical Observatory at Alta Vista 10 710ft on the peak of Teneriffe'. 1 view shows Piazzi Smyth himself, sitting at the foot of the telescope's equatorial mount. This is included in Piazzi Smyth's book, 'Tenerife, An Astronomer's Experiment', published in 1858 by Lovell Reeve and is captioned,'Sheepshank's telescope, first erected on Mount Guajara, the peak of Tenerife in the distance'. Charles Piazzi Smyth was a professor of astronomy at Edinburgh University, he was appointed Astronomer Royal in 1845. For the trip to Tenerife in 1856, he furnished himself with some portable photographic equipment, to produce wet plate collodion images. With this equipment, he produced high-quality images for making stereoviews and is believed to have made 200, in the course of his stay. The book he produced was the first to feature stereoviews. Handling wear to mounts. Images show a degree of fading.

THOMAS BEACH (BRITISH 1737-1806) PORTRAIT OF EDWARD HELYAR, AGED EIGHTEEN; AND PORTRAIT OF BRIDGET, AGED THIRTEEN. TWO OF THE CHILDREN OF WILLIAM AND ELIZABETH HELYAR OF COKER COURT, SOMERSET Oil on canvas, a pair Each 76.2 x 64.8cm (30 x 25½ in.) (2) Provenance: Commissioned by William Helyar (1720-1783), at Coker Court until the 1970s, then by family descent to a private collection, UKLiterature: `Coker Court, Somerset, the seat of Major GW Heneage', Country Life, 2nd January 1909, p.25This charming pair of paintings was commissioned circa.1768 by William Helyar (1720-1883) to adorn the new Georgian wing of his house, Coker Court, East Coker, near Yeovil in Somerset. Thomas Beach was a Dorset man born and bred who trained with Sir Joshua Reynolds and had a flourishing career painting West Country gentry families. William Helyar had ten children with his wife Elizabeth, née Weston. Edward was their fourth child and was eighteen when this portrait was painted. He is shown on the seashore with a telescope and shipping in the distance. The Helyars, like many West Country landed families, had mercantile interests and, as a younger son, Edward would probably have been brought up for involvement in one of these.Bridget is thirteen in a park landscape with a statue and a distant sunrise, which echoes her elegant, shell-pink dress. With her blonde hair wreathed with pearls and a rose in her hand, she epitomizes youthful beauty and modesty. Beach is emulating his master Joshua Reynolds, who uses 'theatrical' clothing to give a timeless quality to his sitters. . The Helyar family had lived at East Coker since 1616, when the manor was bought by William Helyar (1559-1645), Archdeacon of Barnstaple and Chaplain to Queen Elizabeth I. Staunch Royalists, the Helyars suffered under Cromwell's regime but flourished with the Restoration. The children's father William (1720-1783) married Elizabeth Weston in 1744. In 1766 he commissioned from William Chambers the elegant neoclassical addition to the fifteenth and sixteenth century buildings of Coker Court. Fourteen family portraits were commissioned from Thomas Beach to hang in the new wing, remaining there until the 1970s. Condition Report: Edward Helyar: The canvas has been lined, cleaned and re-varnished.
