An 18th century longcase clock, Samual Roberts, Llanfair Caereinion The hood with cavetto cornice and turned full columns flanking the door, the trunk with shaped door above a plain base box, a gummed paper label inscribed in ink 'John Lloyd the maker No.59 - 1781', the brass dial signed 'Sam. Roberts Llanfair', Roman numerals to the chapter ring within moulded figural spandrels, the 30-hour movement striking on a bell, with pendulum and weight. Footnote:Samuel Roberts is a well documented clock maker of Llanfair Caereinion in the Montgomeryshire region, now Powys, active between 1750 and the 1780s. Records indicate that he crafted some six hundred pieces, roughly twenty per year, earning him an average of £35 per year. To serve the local community, Roberts established a 'clock club' with customers paying by installments and entering a lottery for each clock as it was completed. Some of the cases were made by Roberts' neighbour, the joiner John Lloyd who, unusually for the period, attached paper labels. The present lot is thus labelled.Two further Samuel Roberts clocks were sold in these rooms: 1 September 2021, lot 368 which sold for £2,600 (+fees); and 12 December 2018, lot 527 which sold for £2,800 (+fees). Condition:Hood: Cornice re-attached. Glass good. General signs of age and use. Case: Small losses to moulding at top of base box. Base box sides re-attached. Scuffing to plinth facia. Dial: Good. Movement: Intact. Running and striking. Ancillaries: Pendulum and weight.

Barthelemy Prieur (Berzieux, 1536- Parigi 1611) Venus pulling a thorn from her foot Bronze, redish patina, traces of darker patina Fine neoclassical setting in mixed marble and gilded bronze Overall 28,5x10x10 cmBronze 19,7x9x6 cm The bronze is accompanied by the expertise of Dr. Charles Avery.Examination of the metal alloy carried out at the laboratories of the University of Engineering, Milan.The lot is accompanied by a certificate of free circulation indicating the name of the author and the appropriate valuation of € 100,000Known for his role as court sculptor to Henry IV and Marie de Medici, Barthelemy Prieur also travelled to Italy where he worked for the Savoy family. In addition to his monumental sculptures for the French royal family, he also produced enchanting bronze female figures in various poses (washing, drying or combing their hair) destined for a refined studio collection of a vaguely voyeuristic taste.The high quality of the material and the sensual elegance of the small-format castings appear to be in perfect harmony with the need for aesthetic gratification that characterises the collecting of bronzes.Provenance:Baron Hippolyte Boissel de Monville (1794-1873), collector and agent for the Rothschilds.The illustrious provenance is attested by the stamping BM (Baron de Monville) engraved in the trunk.

Massimiliano Soldani Benzi (Montevarchi 1656-1740) (school of) 18th-19th century Bronze, redish patina, traces of dark bronze patina Overall 22x8,5x8 cm Bronze 19,5x8,5x7 cm The sculpture reproduces a famous marble from the 1st century AD that was part of the Medici collection (now in the Uffizi Museum in Florence). Soldani Benzi produced bronze copies of classical sculptures from the Medici collection. His sculpture of the satyr after Medici marble was made in almost life-size dimensions for the Liechtenstein princes and, although its attribution has been debated, it is still preserved in the princes' collection in Vaduz. Soldani's foundry also reproduced smaller copies that are now at the center of attribution disputes. The replicas are characterized by the absence of the trunk to which, in the original version, the satyr is leaning, and by a reddish transparent patina typical of the ancient Tuscan productions, the characteristics present also in this lot.
