Alethea GARSTINPortrait of CrosbieOil on boardInscribed on the back87 x 71 cmProvenance: From the Garstin estate.This work by Alethea is by family repute a portrait of her older brother, the artist and novelist, Crosbie (1887-1930).Crosbie, like his sister Alethea, was an inveterate traveller. Both spent time in many exotic locations. Alethea made numerous trips to Morocco and did some of her finest work there, see 'the Moroccan Bride' sold in these rooms in 2014 and 'The Reverend Charles Francis Benthall on Holiday in Morocco'. Crosby spent some months in the region researching his 1922 book 'The Coasts of Romance'. The fireplace behind the sitter in this portrait has a distinctly Moorish or North African look so this may well have been painted on one of these trips.

"Mysia, Kyzikos EL Stater. Circa 550-500 BC. Head of Athena left, wearing crested Attic helmet, base of crest decorated with zig-zag and pellet pattern; tunny to left below / Quadripartite incuse square. Von Fritze 67, pl. I 20; Greenwell 25; SNG France -; SNG von Aulock -; Boston MFA 1446; Dewing -; Gillet 1053 = Kunstfreund 3 = Jameson 2171 = Weber 4971; Gulbenkian 609 (all from the same obv. die). 16.13g, 20mm.Good Very Fine. Very Rare. Worship of Athena in Kyzikos is attested in the Palatine Anthology which states that Kyzikos had ""the first sanctuary in Asia"" to Athena (6.342.5-6). Although little more is said regarding any strong connections between the city and this goddess, her appearance on this coin clearly highlights her presence in the religious life of the city. Here the goddess is represented in the formulaic archaic portrait style for which Kyzikos is so well-known. Brett (in the Catalogue of Greek Coins, Boston Museum of Fine Arts, 1955) marks the similarity between the zigzag pattern on the base of the helmet's crest on this coin type with that of sixth century Athenian coins (see plates 2-4 in Svoronos, Corpus of the Ancient Coins of Athens). It is therefore possible that the depiction of Athena on this issue was directly influenced by her appearance on Athenian coins circulating in the sixth century. "
"Kyrenaika, Kyrene Æ23. Circa 250 BC. Overstruck on a Ptolemy III Hemiobol. Diademed head of Zeus-Ammon right / Silphium plant; KOINON across fields in three lines. For overtype: SNG Copenhagen 1276; BMC Cyrenaica pg. 68, 2ff; Müller 108; Laffaille 628; for undertype: Svoronos 871; SNG Copenhagen 442; Köln 65. 7.19g, 23mm, 3h. Good Fine. Heavily cleaned. Rare; an interesting overstrike example. The undertype obverse, featuring a portrait of Ptolemy I facing right, is almost entirely obliterated beneath the head of Zeus-Ammon from the overtype: both are aligned on the same axis. More obvious is the personification of Libya of the reverse undertype (this time on an axis 90° anticlockwise of the overtype) and the legend BAΣIΛEΩΣ Î TOΛEMAIOY around it. "
"Ptolemaic Kingdom of Egypt, Ptolemy V Epiphanes AR Tetradrachm. Alexandria, 204-180 BC. Draped bust right, wearing diadem adorned with grain sheaf / BAΣIΛEΩΣ Î TOΛEMAIOY, eagle with closed wings standing left on thunderbolt; B in left field, NI between legs. Svoronos 1275; Mørkholm, Portrait Group XIV; cf SNG Copenhagen 529 (Ptolemy IV); CNG Triton XVII, 425. 12.98g, 25mm, 12h.Very Fine. Very Rare; only one other example on CoinArchives."
"Seleukid Empire, Antiochos III 'the Great' AR Tetradrachm. Uncertain mint, Sardes(?), circa 203 BC. Diademed head right / BAΣIΛEΩΣ ANTIOXOY, Apollo Delphios seated left on omphalos, holding arrow and resting hand on bow; monograms in outer left and right field. SC - (unlisted monograms); for similar obv. die, cf. SC 985.1, pl. 48 (elephant type). 16.85g, 26mm, 12h.Very Fine. Seemingly unpublished.The obverse die of this unpublished tetradrachm is possibly the same die as that of SC 985.1 (which exhibits slight die shift), or at least by the same hand. The SC catalogue describes the portraits of the die engraver as 'extraordinary works of art' and suggests that they may have been taken from life (see p. 377).The catalogue entries for SC 985-7, which are all thought to be the hand of the same artist, feature a reverse type honouring the Seleucid elephant corps. The minting of these issues remains uncertain, though it is suggested that they were produced from 203 BC onwards when Antiochos is believed to have been in Ionia. The clear link to the elephant issues demonstrated by the obverse portrait of the present piece would place this coin as part of the first attributable Apollo type reverse tetradrachms to be produced at this unknown mint, and indeed the outer left monogram seen on the reverse is similar to that shared by SC 985.1 and 987.1. "
"Seleukid Empire, Demetrios I Soter AR Tetradrachm. Antioch, Dated SE 160 = 153/152 BC. Diademed head right / ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΔΗΜΗΤΡΙΟΥ ΣΩΤΗΡΟΣ, Tyche seated left on throne supported by Nike, holding sceptre and cornucopiae; two monograms in outer left field, ΞΡ (date) in exergue. SC 1641.5. 16.69g, 30mm, 12h.Extremely Fine. An attractive portrait struck in high relief"
"Augustus or Tiberius Æ Sestertius of Thaena, Africa(?). Circa AD 13-17(?). [Bare head right] / Head of Serapis right; part of ethnic visible before, T'YNT(?). CNG e415, 476; for similar, cf. RPC I 810 (smaller denomination) and MAA 55 (same). 27.24g, 38mm.Fair/Poor. Extremely Rare; unpublished in the standard references and the second example to be offered at auction.Though almost blank, this coin appears to share the same reverse die as the example sold by Classical Numismatic Group earlier this year (see references). The aforementioned piece exhibits an imperial portrait on the obverse, presumably Augustus or Tiberius, and has been attributed to Thaena on the basis of its similarity to another issue minted there. Part of the city ethnic appears to be visible before the head of Serapis on this coin, however it is not sufficiently clear to confirm the attribution to Thaena."
"Augustus Ó” Medallion or Double Sestertius(?) of Hadrumetum, North Africa. Circa 7-5 BC. [...TVS TR POT XVII IM...], bare head right / [O C S] within wreath; two laurel branches around. RPC I 777 (Medallion, L. Volusius Saturninus, 7-6 BC); MAA 89 (Double Sestertius, Fabius Africanus, 6-5 BC); cf. M. Grant, From Imperium To Auctoritas, 1946, p. 139, 1. 48.96g, 40mm, 12h.Fair/Poor. Extremely Rare; the third recorded example.Despite being in a low state of preservation, this coin is identifiable (by the outline of the obverse portrait and fragmentary reverse details, but most of all due to its extraordinary weight) as belonging to a series of coins struck at Hadrumetum during the reign of Augustus, the heaviest known issue to have been struck within proconsular Africa. The RPC catalogue suggests that the coin is medallic in nature, though the weight is that of a double sestertius, and that the reverse inscription 'Ob Cives Servatos' refers to the dedication which accompanied the clipeus virtutis (honorific shield) awarded to Augustus in 27 BC (see RPC I p. 197). Further to this, it has been suggested by Michael Grant that the medallion was struck to celebrate the second decennalia of Augustus' rule (Roman Anniversary Issues, 1950). The MAA catalogue asserts that the issue represents a double sestertius and argues that the overpricing of the sestertius from single to double means that the sestertii minted within Africa were only equivalent to half of the Roman equivalent (see MAA, pp. 290-921).The absence of a proconsular signature (not unusual for the sestertii struck in Africa) raises the question under which magistrate was this struck and thus, the dating of the issue. The RPC catalogue assigns the issue to 7-6 BC during the proconsulship of L. Volusius Saturninus, who is named on a series of dupondii (see RPC I 778), however notes that the die engraver of the issue is the same as that for a series of coins naming Fabius Africanus (see RPC I 779-781). It is for this reason that Alexandropoulos assigns the issue to 6-5 BC, when Fabius Africanus was in office (MAA 89-92). "
"Augustus Ó” As of Sabratha, Syrtica. 27 BC-AD 14. Head of Serapis right, wearing calathus; SBRTN'N in Neo-Punic script behind, R in Neo-Punic script before / Bare head of Augustus right; CAESAR behind, lituus before. RPC I 814; MAA 43a; SNG Copenhagen -. 9.53g, 25mm, 7h.Good Very Fine / Very Fine. Weak obv. strike. A highly attractive portrait of Augustus for the issue."
"North Africa, Carthage AR Shekel. Time of Hannibal. Carthago Nova, circa 218-206 BC. Bare male head (Hannibal?) left / Horse standing right, palm tree behind. MHC 142; ACIP 603; SNG BM Spain 104-5. 6.98g, 21mm, 11h.Very Fine; light scuff on edge. Very Rare. This coin is conventionally believed to carry the portrait of Hannibal on the obverse.In 237 BC Hamilcar Barca, after having lost the First Punic War against Rome, but having won the Mercenary War against the Libyans, disembarked at Gadir with a Carthaginian expedition with the purpose of ""re-establishing Carthaginian authority in Iberia"" (Polybios, Histories, 2.1.6), and within 9 years he had expanded the territory of Carthage well into the Iberian peninsula, securing control of the southern mining district of Baetica and Sierra Morena, before dying in battle in 228. Hamilcar was succeeded by his son-in-law Hasdrubal the Fair who expanded the new province by skilful diplomacy and consolidated it with the foundation of Akra Leuka, Mahon and finally in 227, Qart Hadasht (Latin: Carthago Nova) as his capital. After his untimely death in 221 he was succeeded by Hannibal (247-182), oldest son of Hamilcar Barca, and Hamilcar's second son Hasdrubal (245-207 BC). The Barcids now wielded control over much of the mineral rich Mediterranean side of the peninsula until 219 when Hannibal made the fateful move of taking and sacking Saguntum, a well established Roman ally. The wholesale slaughter of this Roman allies’s population, and the arrogance with which the Roman ambassadors sent to Carthage to seek redress were met, led directly to the Second Punic War: the great statesman Quintus Fabius, speaking to the Carthaginian senate, gathered a fold of his toga to his chest and held it out, saying ""Here, we bring you peace and war. Take which you will."" The Carthaginians replied ""Whichever you please - we do not care."" Fabius let the fold drop and proclaimed ""We give you war."" "
"Constans, as Caesar, AV Solidus. Constantinople, AD 335.

Family Portraits: A Late 18th Century Mother-of-Pearl Fan, the monture silvered and gilded, carved and pierced, the upper guards with a carved figure, the gorge more lightly but highlighted in gold. An elaborate cream silk and metal thread tassel hangs from an embossed gold metal loop. The double paper leaf shows two couples in the countryside listening to a flautist, one couple dancing, one lady seated next to a lamb, a grey dog at her feet. To the far left of the leaf, a rectangular portrait in a gilt frame, an elderly moustached man with an upright bearing, wearing a metal military helmet. Next left, an oval portrait of a young woman, a pink ribbon in her hair. To the far right, the third oval portrait of a smiling older lady, wearing a white cap decorated with pink ribbon. The verso is a simple landscape, a woman wearing pink in the centre. Guard length 25cm. Together with a fine period hinged box, covered with woven silk in cream, ruby and gold, the inside lined with deep red moiré silk, the exterior edged in braidSome of the gilding is still quite bright. The monture has been restored, with reinforcement to the verso on several sticks, particularly near the rivet but also mid stick. There are some nicks to the folds and some folds are rubbed. One fold has been quite crudely repaired on the verso. There is a black mark right across the verso which obscures much of the lady in pink. Some brown discoloration visible on the recto.
A Very Fine Late 17th/Early 18th Century Painted, Carved and Pierced Ivory Brisé Fan, possibly Dutch, with twenty-eight inner sticks and two guards, and tortoiseshell thumb guards. The guards are carved with a figure and flowers in relief, their backgrounds of a deep powder blue, giving good contrast, some features gilded. Central to the gorge is a delicately painted oval vignette containing a portrait of a European lady who appears to be holding a bow, two further vignettes to either side with flowers, two pink roses and an orange parrot tulip. The body of the fan is in three main sections, each bordered with pairs of pierced and highly decorative gilded sticks, painted with Chinoiserie scenes, roses and tulips. The panel to the left shows a man seated on a stone terrace with balustrade, a small pond to his side with water lily leaves. The central scene shows ladies dressed in medieval costume, one with a wimple, gathering around a king on the ground, being tended by a lady, an elderly bearded man looking on. In the final panel a young woman is seated outside in a rural location. All panels are bordered in gold and surrounded by elaborate gilding and some repetition of the blue. The verso is a mirror image outline. The deep cream ribbon is plain, possibly a replacement .Guard length 23.5cm See Nancy Armstrong's ''The Book of Fans'' pages 60 and 61 for a brisé with similarities, described as Dutch.Some light rubbing, plus one small patch of missing paint in the panel to the right.
A Good Early 18th Century Ivory Brisé Fan, carving in relief on the guards, the inner sticks pierced as borders around the central panel, painting throughout. Twenty-six inner sticks and two guards, with a deep ruby red ribbon, unpainted. The central painted scene, set in the countryside, depicts a couple and three female attendants, a winged cherub frolicking at their feet, another carrying a flame to the left. To each side are a pair of darkly painted sticks depicting figures and urns. The gorge, painted in the same blue, shows chinoiserie figures, with gold highlights and borders. The guards are carved in relief with a figure and a flower, the flower painted, as is a small painted portrait above. The verso is a mirror-image drawing of the main scene with the addition of a bright pink border to the gorge, the pair of sticks just inside each guard also being brightly painted. Tortoiseshell thumb guard. Guard length 20.5cm. Together with a later green moire silk covered card fan box lined in pale greenGood strong colours. Slight damage to one end of the box. Slight warping to inner sticks which could improve if the ribbon was applied less tautly.
As The Hours Pass: A Highly Unusual Mid to Late 18th Century Mother-of-Pearl Fan, the heavy sticks carved, pierced and gilded, the upper guards wide and each containing a portrait within an oval, covered with glass. The gorge sticks are shaped and several contain figures. The double vellum leaf is divided on the recto into sections, the central section quite slim, painted with a youth playing a pipe, above which is an oval containing a portrait of a lady, covered with mica. To the right, a homely scene of a lady at rest seated on a chair with her feet on a footstool, reading, a serious looking young boy in front of the fireplace, being observed by a white cat. On the wall is an embossed foil panel containing a clock, time set at ten to midday. To the left, a lady dozing in her chair, ignoring perhaps the gentleman attempting to serenade her leaning in through the window. A similar clock is above her side table. The reserves are set with a foil urn and flowers, and embroidered with gold sequins. The verso is painted with a rather crude countryside scene, to the left a man looking out from a building wearing a rather unusual hat, a lady with similar headwear plus a veil to the right, some colourful ducks on a riverbank to the fore. Guard length 24cmSome rubbing to the leaf, some patching to areas seen from the verso.
The Fruit Harvest: A Circa 1860's Bone Fan, with a silvered and gilded monture, lightly pierced and simply decorated with flower sprays. The double paper leaf is lithographed in a strong dark blue, offset in gold in the reserves. A central vignette shows 18th century county folk gathering autumn fruit, a male picker throwing the fruit into the outstretched apron worn by one of two female helpers, a donkey waiting to take the harvest home. To each side a portrait of a young girl, dressed in white. The verso has an overall design of flowers and foliage, in cream, gold and ginger. Guard length 26cm; and A Circa 1860's Faux Tortoiseshell Fan, the sticks slightly pierced and lightly gilded, possibly applied foil. The double paper lithographed leaf, with turquoise blue reserves, and gold highlights, shows several ladies seated next to a stone balustrade mounted with a stone urn, a gentleman in attendance, the grounds around them with colourful ground covering shrubs. The costumes appear more appropriate to the 18th century, with a sack back robe and lace ruffles. The verso shows a gathering of young couples, also in dress from a previous period, a boy bringing refreshments. Guard length 26cm (2)Fan 1 - loss to some of the gilding foil . Colours strong, verso a little rubbed in places. Fan 2 - Some loss to the decoration on the monture.
