SPEED, John. Cornwall A hand coloured engraved map from Speed's 'The Theatre of the Empire of Great Britain', with inset view of Launceston, large strapwork cartouche and compass rose, Latin text to the verso titled 'Cornwallia sive Cornubia', framed and glazed, 41cm x 53cm, John Sudbury and George Humble, London, 1616.As this map lacks Irish or Virgivian Sea below the cartouche of Launceston and the fact there is Latin text to the rear, it indicates that this plate was published pre 1623 and was therefore published in 1616 (Quixley and Quixley. 'Antique Maps of Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly,' p.35). A vibrant example in vg condition. Very good overall condition, no rips or tears, colours are strong throughout. Sporadically, there are small incidences of singular spots. Although only seen close up and generally to the margins. I would suggest this map would want reframing, as the paper is slightly crumpled, with some fold marks visible. Coincidentally, whilst examining the map, it appears this was previously sold from 'The Old Master Galleries' in Oxford Street, London. This map has not been examined out of its frame.

The WMR was a privately-funded project since the government opted not to undertake its construction. Additionally, Higginson played a key role in the discovery of Dodo bones on the island of Mauritius in 1865. Higginson was born in Thormanby, North Yorkshire, England, in 1838, and received his education at the Collegiate School in Leicester. In his engineering career, he completed an apprenticeship under Sir William Fairbairn in Manchester, followed by railway, canal, and waterworks projects in Russia (1860–1861), Mauritius (1862–1866), England, and India. While in India in 1868, he became an associate member of the Institute of Civil Engineers, later attaining full membership in 1871. In 1872, Higginson was appointed as the superintending engineer for railways and public works in the South Island. In 1878, he transitioned to private practice in Dunedin and gained recognition for his work on the Kawarau Gorge Suspension Bridge, earning the Telford Premium from the Institute of Civil Engineers. This iconic bridge was finished in the late 1880s, serving as a vital access route to the Central Otago goldfields during that era. However, in 1963, traffic was rerouted to a new highway bridge on State Highway 6. The significance of the suspension bridge is underscored by its classification as a Category I historic place by the New Zealand Historic Places Trust. Today, it stands as a popular tourist attraction, offering commercialized ziplines and bungee jumping experiences for visitors seeking adventure amid its historic and scenic surroundings In 1882, he was contracted as the chief engineer to complete the Wellington to Manawatu Railway, which he accomplished nine months ahead of schedule. He was awarded his promised bonus four years later. Higginson's final appointment was as the engineer-manager of the Wellington Gas Works. Regarding the discovery of Dodo bones, in 1865, while working for the Government Staff of the Mauritius Railways, Higginson encountered workers extracting bones from a swampy area called the 'Mare aux Songes.' He recognized the significance of these bones, suspected to belong to the Dodo bird, which was thought to be extinct. Higginson's discovery led to further investigations and the dispatch of a substantial quantity of bones to institutions such as the British Museum, Liverpool, York, and Leeds Museums. These bones contributed to the understanding of the Dodo bird and are still held by World Museum Liverpool, The Yorkshire Museum, and Leeds Museums and Galleries. Harry Pasley Higginson passed away in Wellington on February 26, 1900, at the age of 63, and he was laid to rest in the Karori Cemetery. His memory is honored with a stained glass window at the Wellington Cathedral of St. Paul, featuring depictions of the Kawarau Gorge Suspension Bridge and a Dodo.

A SET OF FOUR GEORGE II SOLID MAHOGANY HALL CHAIRSCIRCA 1750 Each of sgabello form, with escutcheon shaped backs, circular panelled seat and front legs, joined by a stretcher each 99cm high, 42cm wide, 55cm deep overall An nearly identical set of four was sold Christies Important English Furniture, London, 4th July 2002, Lot 27 (£15,535). Inspired by Italian Renaissance 'sgabello' forms, this model of 'back-stool' enjoyed enduring popularity during the 18th Century, no doubt in part as a result of their multi-purpose function, being used both in the garden and as occasional seating in the family chapel, alongside their more traditional role as Hall Chairs. Perhaps the earliest examples of this basic form of chair in England are the celebrated chairs at Petworth and from Holland House introduced in the early 17th Century by Francois Cleyn, as well as those made for the 1st Duke of Buckingham in 1625 (G. Jackson-Stopps ed. 'The Treasure Houses of Britain', Exhibition Catalogue, 1985, pp.134-135, and S. Jervis, 'Furniture for the 1st Duke of Buckingham', Furniture History, 1995, pp. 52-53, figs. 1-3). Although this basic pattern of Hall chair was already in existence by 1730, such as the set of eighteen in oak supplied by George Nix to Ham House (P. Thornton and M. Tomlin, 'The Furnishing and Decoration of Ham House', Furniture History, 1980, fig.152), the evolution from a flat to a compass-fronted seat does not predate the 1750s. It is particularly interesting to note, therefore, that a set of twelve oak Hall chairs of apparently identical profile was supplied by William Masters of Coventry Street, Piccadilly to the 2nd Duke of Atholl (d.1764) for Blair Castle, Perthshire in 1751 (A. Coleridge, 'William Masters and some early 18th Century Furniture at Blair Castle, Scotland', The Connoisseur, October 1963, p.79, fig.5). Conclusive attribution , however, is untenable, as this same model was supplied by Alexander Peter to Dumfries House in 1759. Condition Report: Overall there are some scratches, marks, knocks, cracks and abrasions consistent with age and use.There are some losses, restorations and observations including:As is often the case with sgabello chairs there are some cracks along the grain of timber and some heavier scratching including to area where scuffed by feet. There are some butterfly inset repairs to some of these cracks.The chairs have some later dark staining, and for some reason for which I can't account the underside of some of the chairs have been sanded back to bare fresh wood.Some of the shaped stretchers could be later replacements and there are signs of glue to some joints.As a result of running repairs the chairs are robust for use.Please see the additional condition report photographs through the link on the condition report email as a visual reference of condition.
