This lot has been curated by Ed Cross About Reuben Powell's discipline focuses on paintings on tin-plate steel with a strong relationship to drawing. The themes explored in his work are industrial and maritime. These themes explore his own family history and a broader history. Figures rarely appear in his landscapes and seascapes.

* Jenner (Edward, 1749-1823). English surgeon and pioneer of smallpox vaccination. A series of 14 Autograph Letters Signed, ‘Edw. Jenner’, three as ‘E. Jenner’ and one as ‘E.J.’, Cheltenham & Berkeley, Gloucestershire, 18 April 1811 to 1 November 1822 & 3 undated, addressed to Edward Davies [his nephew], variously at Eastington, Ryeford, Stanley House and Ebley House, all near Stroud, and one sent to Edward in London, and one undated letter to his sister [Ann], the subjects largely concerning family matters, arrangements for meetings, the poor health of Edward’s mother [Jenner’s sister Ann] and that of his own wife Catherine, with some recommendations for treatments and diet, discussions of his own work and how challenging he finds it, with one direct reference to vaccination (24 October 1811), plus other references to his work and its reception in the wider world, all written on entire letters with integral address panels, many written on all four sides including folds adjacent to address panel, some age wear with many small fold splits and seal tears (one with loss to subscription but not affecting signatures), a total of 43pp., 4to, together with related correspondence and ephemera comprising: Three Autograph Letters Signed from Jenner’s wife Catherine to Edward and Mrs Davies, one dated from New Bond Street, [London], 23 January 1801, two with signatures torn with loss and one with cover worn with loss; Autograph poem by Ann Davies, signed and dated 23 December 1789 (separated along two folds), autograph letter from Ann to her son Edward (torn with loss), a short autograph account of a friend’s illness dated 26 January 1802; two autograph items from ‘W.D’ [William Davies], one a letter to his aunt (torn on folds) and one a copy of a memorandum; an undated letter to Mrs Davies from ‘M. Berkeley’ at Berkeley Castle; plus 2 printed items, a printed list of subscribers for a statue of Edward Jenner in Gloucester Cathedral, and a pamphlet titled Health Heroes: Edward Jenner, Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, 1926QTY: (approx. 20)NOTE:Provenance: By family descent from the family of Edward Davies.An important unpublished archive of letters from Edward Jenner giving a good deal of insight into his family life and work matters. Jenner was one of nine children, six surviving into adulthood. Of these three sisters and two brothers, only Mary (1730-1810) and Ann (1740-1812) survived into the 19th century. By the time the first of these letters was written by Jenner to his nephew Edward, (also a doctor), only Ann was still living. Unsurprisingly, therefore, Jenner shows a great deal of concern for his sister’s health and diet while taking a keen interest in the health of Edward and his family too. Extracts from the letters are given below, further images available on request.Cheltenham, Thursday night, 18 April 1811: ‘… how much I lament the sad account you give me of your poor father's health, and to request in case the haemorrhage returns again, that Mr Darke will inspect the part. By so doing, he will probably discover the bleeding vessel, and by means of a ligature, prevent the further effusion of blood ... ‘.‘You must avoid everything that tends to weaken and employ every means of strengthening your constitution – the sea and its breezes will do great things for you, and I hope take off the susceptibility for cold, which Mrs Davies's nieces are so much acquainted with. As for myself, it is not from the cause you suspect that my tremors have arisen. The long continued, and at times, highly alarming state of Mrs Jenner's health, succeeded by so much attendance on her poor brother, whose disease I felt confident would prove (as it has done fatal), has been as great a load as I could well carry, to say nothing of other professional weights. I am now getting up to my usual pitch of health again. We have had a curious domestic occurrence. Hystericks are as contagious as the plague among young females. Several fell sick – we were obliged to import fresh ones to wait on them. Our new importation became infected and others were necessary to wait on them; so that we got three deep at last. I shall be glad to see William and Mr Lewis on the day you mention …’.Cheltenham, Wednesday night, 23 October 1811: ‘I want much to see you and converse with you about the state of your health and many other things. On Saturday next I propose being at the inn at Painswick at 12 o'clock to meet Mr Darke ... I wish it were in my power to go on to Eastington and stay the night. What a pleasure it would afford me, as I want a long conversation with my friends there … Indeed, I ought to tear myself away from this place, where I am quite overwhelm'd with the incessant variety of my occupations. My lot is harder than that of the medical world in general, as the toils of vaccination are superadded to my ordinary labors. However, things go on smoothly now. Some reports I have lately had from abroad cheer me much and the long expected tangible compliment from Madras is at length arrived. This I had given up for lost. Mrs Jenner is better than I have known her for a long time past. This again is cheering; and as for myself, I have nothing to complain of on the sense of health – so I will grumble as little as possible. The worst of it is my commonly having fifty letters before me unanswered, and no aid from a secretary ... Can you procure me some more health bags? The large sort – the small ones are of no use... ‘.No place or date, postmarked Cheltenham, 6 January 1812: ‘Still, the old story goes forward "no good without an evil tacked onto it". The gratification Mrs Davies must feel in being herself the supporter of her little girl meets with a sad interruption. As the application you have been using so seldom fails when fresh and good, I have been thinking it possible that what you procured may have been readied ineffectual by overkeeping. If the remedy should still exist, pray try the following. Some skins we know will not bear an oily application of any sort without its exciting inflammation; a wash may therefore do better. Take twenty grains of the sugar of lead and dissolve it in two ounces of water. Let the parts affected be washed frequently, or rather sopp'd, with a bit of soft sponge – previously to the child's sucking it may be wash'd off with a little warm water ...‘... It is astonishing to observe how a deviation apparently trifle from the rigid rules I lay down with regard to diet in such cases will turn the balance, and change comfortable health into sickness. Your mother is apt to pick, and just taste, and have the smallest relish of this or that which may be on the table and fancy from the morsels she has taken no harm can ensue. This is all error and must be corrected. Let me entreat you in the gentlest manner, to go and talk to her on a subject, that is not only interesting to her and her family, but to me and mine ... ‘.No place (Dursley Penny Post), Tuesday night, 5 May 1812: ‘I have just received your doleful letter. Your mother still becoming more feeble, your boy ill and your wife out of health. This is a lamentable account indeed. From your description of Edward's case, I see nothing more likely to restore him than the means Mr Darke has pointed out. Before the present week ends I will if possible contrive to see him ... Have you a shower bath? It is what I may probably direct for Mrs Davies. Mrs Jenner has undergone the painful process of an abscess in the ear, but is now convalescent... ‘..........For the rest of the description, please visit our website www.dominicwinter.co.uk

A Kashan underglaze-painted pottery bowl Persia, 12th-13th Centuryof deep rounded form on a long foot, decorated in cobalt-blue, manganese and black on a white ground with a central rosette to the well surrounded by bands of fish interspersed by dot motifs, the exterior with repeated linear strokes, accompanied by a photograph from M. Aaron 20.1 cm. diam. max.Footnotes:ProvenancePrivate UK collection, acquired from M. Aaron in Tehran in the 1970s.Designs featuring a multitude of fish swarming towards a central motif were popular during this period, not only featuring on pottery but also commonly found on metalwork. As Caiger-Smith notes, this design has been assigned multiple meanings, including its interpretation as a sun-symbol as well as simply an apt design for a water vessel (A. Caiger-Smith, Lustre Pottery, Faber & Faber, 1985, p. 78). For further discussion, see E. J. Grube, Islamic Pottery of the Eighth to the Fifteenth Century in the Keir Collection, London, 1976, pp. 228-234. An example of a pottery bowl featuring a fish design dated to the 14th/ 15th Century is in the Art Gallery of South Australia, Adelaide (Accession Number 20035C20).Important Notice to BuyersSome countries, e.g., the US, prohibit or restrict the purchase by its citizens (wherever located) and/or the import of certain types of works of particular origins.

Edward Ruscha art print DANCE? 1973 original gallery poster glazed and framed 137 x 152cm This work highlights Ruscha’s preoccupation with the symbols of American popular culture of the 1960s and 1970s, with the monosyllabic invitation to dance invoking light-hearted entertainment. An unlikely array of materials were used to create it, including coffee, egg white, mustard, chilli sauce, ketchup and cheddar cheese. These edible ingredients suggest the kind of foodstuffs that might be consumed in an American diner, and are in particular the condiments that accompany typically American fast food such as hotdogs and hamburgers. (Apt 1)
