Ephemera – Archery – longbows two fascinating documents being leases on vellum dated 1692/3 & 1700 between Richard Ingram a London Merchant and Francis Dodsworth described as a ‘longbowstringmaker’ for property in Lombard Street City of London which is called in the later deed ‘Bulls Head’. Both documents in fine condition and with attached ms schedules. The earlier document has a miniature portrait of William III contained within an elaborate initial letter. Documents which provide an insight into what was becoming a dying trade. The English longbow had for centuries been the mainstay of the country’s military might but by the end of the 17th c the longbow had been largely superseded by the introduction of gunpowder based artillery. Longbows were still (and still are) manufactured of course but much more for recreational purposes than warfare. As a consequence the Ancient Company of Longbowstringmakers of the City of London which began in the early 15th c had come to an end by the beginning of the 19th c. The Francis Dodsworth mentioned in these documents is mentioned in the annals of the company as having paid a bounty to be excused from being a Warden of the Company in 1691.

India – Maharajah Ranjit Singh superb miniature portrait on ivory set in white gold brooch also inscribed on gold ‘Runjeet Singh’ An important portrait of Maharajah Ranjit Singh by his court artist with a letter of provenance d. 1839 stating that the portrait was by the court artist and dated 1839 this potentially could be the last ever portrait of him whilst he was alive as he died 20th June 1839 in the same year
India – Maharajah Duleep Singh a superb miniature portrait on an oval sliver of ivory approx 40x30mm showing him as a boy in full regalia and with a falcon at his side. This portrait is similar in style to the famous portrait of Duleep Singh painted in 1852 by the celebrated British artist George Beechey. However our image shows the Maharajah at an earlier age judging from the image so it is logical to assume that it must have been painted from life at a date prior to 1842. The portrait is in fine condition with the colours bright and clear.
