Bradford Rudge (British, 1805-1885) A herdsman with cattle and a sheepdog preparing to cross a river signed lower right "B Rudge" watercolour 18 x 31cm (7 x 12in) Other Notes: Bradford Rudge taught the brilliantly talented Fraser brothers to paint - a family of artists who produced wonderful watercolours of the Ouse valley. Rudge was born in 1813, probably the son of a Birmingham artist who taught at Rugby School. He moved to Bedford in 1837 and became the first drawing master at Bedford Grammar School. The Frasers were among his pupils - their father was a retired army surgeon who moved to Bedford from Edinburgh, because the Harpur Trust at Bedford paid for the education of his seven sons. A little discolouration to the sky but otherwise fine.

Macedonian Kingdom, Alexander III, silver drachm, obverse head of Herakles right wearing a lion's skin headress, reverse Zeus seated cross legged (posthumous issue) holding an eagle and a sceptre, MP (monogram) below eagle, near EF, 4.2g Other Notes: Alexander the Great was born in Pell/Macedom 356 and died in 323BC in Babylon. His genius as a general led to the Macedonian army conquering and creating an empire from Greece to India until his death aged just 33. His reign marks the beginning of the Hellenistic age. 80% of coins were issued posthumously and this is apparent as the legs of Zeus on the coin are crossed - as they are uncrossed during his lifetime.
