JACOBITE SILVER PEACE NEGOTIATIONS AT GERTRUYDENBERG MEDALLION NORBERT ROETTIER (1665 - 1727), STRUCK 1710 Obverse; laureate and armoured bust of Price James with legend CVIS. EST Reverse; map of Great Britain and Ireland with ships around and motto REDDITE in banner above Diameter: 38mm, weight: 20.2g Note: The political and religious turmoil in early 1700s in Europe lead to peace negotiations to try and restore normality to the continent. This aimed to settle the landscape and the Jacobites hoped that new stability would increase the chances of the British wanting the return of the exiled King James. It is considered that this is the medallion that was discussed by Abel Boyer when he wrote "About this time (July 1710) a medal was dispersed in the Netherlands by the Chevalier de St George's Friends….. This medal was undoubtedly struck at this juncture upon the fond hopes given by Jacobites in England, to their Correspondents in France, that the British Court and Nation were ready to invite the Pretender…. But whatever ground there was for such an expectation things were not yet ripe enough for the Pretenders Friends to throw of the Mask." Struck in silver and bronze (and extremely rarely in gold) this is a rare example of an early medallion at a point when the exiled king still held hopes of regaining the throne.

JACOBITE BRONZE PRINCE CHARLES EDWARD STUART OAK SOCIETY MEDALLION THOMAS PINGO (1714 - 1776), STRUCK 1750 Obverse; bust of Prince Charles facing right Reverse; stricken oak with shoots appearing from base with REVIRESCIT above and 1750 in exergue Diameter: 34mm, weight: 15.2g Note: Much debate has surrounded the production of the Oak Society medallions. It was for some time suggested they were produced to commemorate the visit of Prince Charles, in the upmost secrecy, to London and the Society in 1750. However, this appears unlikely as there is documentary evidence of the commission of these by 1749, when it is unlikely plans had been made. The Oak Society was one of many pro-Jacobite clubs which sprung up after the defeat at Culloden. They met in London at the Crown & Anchor on the corner of Arundel Street and the Strand. The use of such obvious Jacobite icons for a medallion in use in Britain is unusual and the portrait of Charles (although not named) is clear. When combined with the Stuart stricken oak and motto they are very iconic representations. The stricken oak has been seen in many uses by the Jacobites/Stuarts, notably in glasses, and spoke greatly of the cause.

AFTER THE ANTIQUE, THE VENUS DE' MEDICI 19TH CENTURY Italian white marble 161cm high Note: This 19th century Italian version of Venus is based on the original dating to the first century AD, which was itself likely a copy of an earlier Hellenistic bronze of the Greek goddess Aphrodite. It follows in the tradition of the work of Praxiteles, the 4th century BC Greek sculptor. The goddess stands demurely, her arms seeming to cover her nakedness, as she emerges from the sea as evidenced by the dolphin at her feet. The Venus was known to be in the Medici collection by the mid 16th century, feted as a rare survivor from the Classical period. Through the 17th century its popularity began to extend beyond the closed circles of the Italian elite, benefitted by its move from Rome to Florence in 1677, where it was installed in the Uffizi Gallery. There, Venus' provocative beauty became a prime attraction for visitors making the Grand Tour, and copies in plaster, bronze and marble were made to grace collections of those wanting to possess her.
