J. CASTLE L.M.S. Yacht, John Williams Watercolour Initialled lower right and titled to mount 23 x 34cm This ship portrait depicts the London Missionary Society (LMS) barque John William I. The vessel was named after John Williams, a popular 19th–century missionary involved in bringing Christianity to the South Pacific.

Williams’ death stirred public sympathy in Australia, England and America and stimulated financial support for the LMS, which went on to construct six vessels bearing his name.

PORTRAIT EN BUSTE DE VOLTAIRE D’après un modèle de Jean Antoine HOUDON (1741-1828)Par Ferdinand BARBEDIENNE (1810-1892), Fondeur France, seconde moitié du XIXe siècle MATÉRIAU : Bronze Signé F. Barbedienne H. 47 cm, L. 22 cm, P. 25 cm A 2nd HALF OF 19th CENTURY PATINATED BRONZE DEPICTING THE PORTRAIT OF VOLTAIRE After a model by Jean Antoine HOUDON (1741-1828) By Ferdinand BARBEDIENNE (1810-1892) Stamped F. Barbedienne 18.50 in. high, 8.66 in. wide, 9.84 in. deep Ce portrait en bronze d’une très belle qualité de fonte et de patine représente l’un des plus célèbres philosophes français du Siècle des Lumières, François-Marie Arouet dit Voltaire (1694 - 1778). Le fondeur Ferdinand Barbedienne exécuta ce modèle au XIXe siècle en s’inspirant du portrait réalisé par l’un des meilleurs sculpteurs du XVIIIe siècle, Jean Antoine Houdon. L’artiste et le sujet se rencontrèrent à Paris en 1778 au moment où Voltaire, déjà très âgé, revient à Paris pour assister à la représentation d’Irène, qui connut un triomphe à la Comédie Française. Houdon a pris le parti de représenter le philosophe de manière très réaliste, les joues creusées, les cheveux retenus par un large bandeau en lui donnant un air sarcastique avec ce sourire ironique et ces yeux malicieux.

Villa Saïd (Atelier de Van Dongen à Paris de 1919 à 1922) 2 juillet (1919) Cher ami, Content d’avoir de nos nouvelles et de vous savoir en bonne santé. Nous avons déjà reçu une partie de votre envoi d’Américains ici et ils défileront sur les Grands Boulevards mercredi. Je vous enverrai la Rose de France et tâcherai d’y joindre quelques dessins en tenue d’été mais ne les montrez pas aux Américains, ils sont pudiques. Comptez-vous rester longtemps là-bas ? Je peins peu mais je fais des dessins. Vous savez que je devais illustrer les Liaisons dangereuses mais la crise du papier retarde cette édition. En attendant le temps où le papier fleurira comme en temps de paix je m’occupe de l’édition de quelques contes des Mille et une nuits copieusement illustrés. Je m’aperçois que je vous écris sur un papier bien sale. Je n’ai pas encore vu. votre édition de chez Devambez. Tout est long - même la guerre. J’ai fait une exposition de dessins à Lyon qui n’a jusqu’à présent aucun succès. J’y étais arrivé en pleine grève et j’en ai profité pour faire une promenade à Marseille où je me suis bien amusé. Connaissez-vous la rue Bouterie ? Si par hasard vous passez par Marseille, demandez donc à n’importe quel Africain, Chinois ou Siamois où ça se trouve. C’est plus rigolo que la dix-septième rue à Washington. Envoyez-moi bientôt de vos nouvelles. Cordialement vôtre, Van Dongen

Spine and edges of boards sunned; earlier owner`s name on pastedowns; some light foxing to endpapers, outer leaves and edges. Very good condition. (Nienaber I, p. 238) Salomon Gerhardus (Manie) Maritz (1876 - 1940), `Boer general and rebel leader of 1914, was a descendant of the Voortrekker leader Gerrit Maritz … Maritz became an admirer of Nazism. He joined the Greyshirt movement in the Union, but resigned in 1934 to form the South African National Democratic movement. He was farming in South-West Africa at the time, but paid frequent visits to the Union to make speeches attacking the Jews and Freemasonry. In August 1939 he was charged in the high court, Windhoek, with engendering racial hostility in South-West Africa by the distribution of his book, My lewe en strewe (Pretoria, 1939). On 34 August he was found guilty, the presiding judge stating that the book had been `… written with the deliberate object of encouraging bad feelings towards the Jewish race`. … Maritz was short, stocky, broad-shouldered and dark-complexioned. In his prime he was endowed with exceptional physical strength about which many striking anecdotes were recorded by his contemporaries. His courage, energy and ruthlessness made him a formidable opponent in the field. In civilian life his impetuosity, restlessness and lack of business acumen precipitated a series of financial setbacks. He undoubtedly had a personal magnetism, but his arrogance, violent temper and pathological racial prejudices made him many enemies and often alienated his friends.` (Dictionary of South African Biography, Vol. I., pp. 513-515) Publisher Place: [Pretoria] Publisher: the author Publication Date: [1939] Reserve: $40 Click here to view further details and to bid

When the burghers evacuated a hill in the Tabanyama mountain range after a heavy bombardment, and the right flank of the Boers was exposed, Slegtkamp and two fellow scouts, Albert de Roos and Jack Hindon, climbed the hill on their own initiative and subjected the left flank of the British soldiers to heavy fire. Under the impression that the hill was strongly garrisoned, the British soldiers retreated. The morale of the other burghers now being strengthened, they reoccupied the hill. Thus the way was paved for the brilliant victory at Spioenkop four days later. ... Throughout his life he supported the republican ideal and in the late thirties he joined the Ossewa-Brandwag, of which, despite his advanced age, he was an active member, later becoming general-in-chief on the Highveld. He spent his last years peacefully in his home town, Middlelburg. Slegtkamp was short and thin. Restless and at times quick-tempered, he was nevertheless a fearless man who, although he could not easily adapt to peace conditions, identified himself completely with the fate of his adopted country.` - DSAB V, pp. 714-5 Publisher Place: Cape Town Publisher: Nasionale Pers Publication Date: 1938 Reserve: $25 Click here to view further details and to bid

The author is by no means an optimist, and is often a severe critic, even General French not escaping.
