* Cromwell (Oliver, 1599-1658). English General and Statesman, Lord Protector of the Commonwealth of England, Scotland and Ireland, 1653-58. Document Signed, ‘O. Cromwell’, as Lord Lieutenant General of Ireland and Captain General of all the Land Forces of the Parliament of the Commonwealth of England, no place, 30 June 1651, manuscript military commission on vellum, appointing Richard Johnson an ensign in the Company of Foote commanded by Colonel Richard Ingoldsby, written in an italic hand and boldly signed at the foot, small red wax seal on paper wafer in upper left corner, scattered minor spots, 1 page, oblong folio (20 x 29cm)Qty: (1)NOTESColonel Sir Richard Ingoldsby (1617-1685) was an English officer in the New Model Army during the English Civil War and a politician who sat in the House of Commons variously between 1647 and 1685. As a Commissioner (Judge) at the trial of King Charles I, he signed the king's death warrant but was one of the few regicides to be pardoned. In May 1651 Ingoldsby's regiment left Oxford and joined the army which fought at the Battle of Worcester, the last battle of the English Civil War.
* James II (1633-1701). King of England, Scotland and Ireland. Document Signed, 'James R', as King, at head, Whitehall, 2 August 1685, manuscript document on vellum, commissioning John Webb as a cornet 'of that Troop whereof Colonell Alexander Canan is Captain, in Our Royall Consort the Queen's Regiment of Dragoons commanded by Our Right Trusty and Right Entirely Beloved Cousin Charles [Seymour] Duke of Somersett', countersigned by Robert Spencer, second Earl of Sunderland (1641-1702) as Secretary of State, and in the margin by William Blathwayt (bap. 1650, d. 1717), as Secretary at War, traces of the king's signet, minor soiling, 1 page, oblong folio (26 x 35.5cm)Qty: (1)NOTESSigned in the first year of James II's brief reign. John Richmond Webb (1667–1724), army officer, was born at Rodbourne Cheney, Wiltshire, the son of Colonel Edmund Richmond alias Webb (c.1639–1705) and his first wife, Jane (1649–1669). 'Webb commented that he had served in the army since the age of sixteen. This would place his entry into military service during the last few days of 1683 or in 1684 and clearly differentiates him from a John Webb who had served in Virginia before being promoted to lieutenant in the first guards under Marlborough in the Low Countries in 1691. On 2 August 1685 he received a commission as cornet in the Queen's regiment of dragoon guards (later, the 3rd hussars)...' (ODNB). Alexander Cannon (1640-after 1708), was a Scottish professional soldier serving in the armies of William of Orange and James II. Cannon (or Cannan) remained loyal to James at the 1688 Glorious Revolution, accompanied him into exile and was appointed Major-General of Jacobite forces in Scotland after the death of Viscount Dundee in 1689. Charles Seymour, 6th duke of Somerset (1662–1748), politician and courtier, known as the Proud Duke. Somerset was named by James II as a gentleman of the bedchamber in May 1685 and colonel of the Queen's regiment of dragoons in August. As lord lieutenant of Somerset he also took part in the suppression of the duke of Monmouth's rising that year.
* Wolsey (Thomas, 1470/71-1530). English archbishop, statesman and cardinal of the Catholic Church. Lord High Chancellor of England 1515-29. A very fine manuscript Document Signed, ‘Thomas Wulcy’, Richemount [Richmond], 25 November [1513], boldly penned in black ink in a secretarial hand on laid paper, being a Privy Council Warrant ordering [John Dauntesey] ‘Daunce’ to make payments in Flanders to Richard Fermour and William Brown, merchants of the Staple at Calais, of £1000 to be paid to William Copland for the purchase of ‘artillerye and other habilymentes of Warre’ and a further £1000 to be paid to Alan Kyng ‘for provision of Wyne for the kynges use’, a holograph receipt by Fermour and Brown (per me Rychard Fermer; per me Wyll[ia]m Browne junior) on the lower half of the document, dated 6 December 1513, Wolsey’s signature appears at the centre of the document alongside those of Thomas Howard, 2nd Duke of Norfolk (1443-1524, English soldier and statesman, Lord High Treasurer 1501-22, Earl Marshal 1509-24; signed ‘T. Norfolk’), Charles Somerset, 1st Earl of Worcester (c.1460-1526, Lord Chamberlain 1509-26; signed ‘C. Som[m]ersete’), Richard Foxe (1447/88-1528, Bishop of Winchester 1501-28, Lord Privy Seal 1487-1516, the founder of Corpus Christi College, Oxford; signed ‘Ri Wynton’) and Sir Thomas Lovell (c. 1449-1524, English soldier and administrator, Speaker of the House of Commons and Treasurer of the royal household; signed ‘Thomas Lovell’), filing hole touching one letter in second line, incorrectly dated at the head of the document in a hand of c.1800, some light browning and overall age wear, one short split to left upper margin not touching text,1 page, 4to (210 x 180mm), endorsed: ex[aminat]ur p[er] Dalison (examined by Dalison) [George Dalison, Auditor of the Exchequer]Qty: (1)NOTESProvenance: collection of Sir Joseph Dimsdale – ‘D’ (blind-stamp monogram collector’s mark with crest above to lower margin; not located in Lugt); subsequently part of the Ray Rawlins Collection of Historical Documents and Letters. The present document is illustrated in full in The Guinness Book of World Autographs by Rawlins (1977, p. 241). The document was included in the auction of the Rawlins Collection by Sotheby’s, June 1980 (Lot 67, £1,300, Thomas) and the small circular stamp of the Rawlins collection has been neatly removed from the lower left corner leaving a light, minor stain. Docketed in Rawlins’ hand in pencil to the verso as formerly part of the collection of Sir Joseph Dimsdale; XII 265; Alan G. Thomas (1911-1992) bookseller; Sotheby’s, London, 13 December 1993 (Lot 306, £2,000); International Autograph Auctions Ltd., 3 April 2011 (Lot 609, £5,600). In pencil, at top, c1850: Pl 2 No 1 implying illustration as Plate 2, number 1. The same hand has annotated the signatures of the privy councillors 1-5, and the same hand has written lines at right-angles below them, suggesting that the lower half of the document was not illustrated. Above the box formed by these lines is a short inscription of which only the words Thereabouts to be … can be made out. The left and bottom margins have been trimmed – note the straight cuts, the tightness of the trace of the circular stamp to the margin and the loss of a word in the left margin. Sir John Dauntsey (Daunce) (c.1484-1545) of Thame, Oxfordshire and London, rose from humble origins to the highest offices in King Henry VIII’s financial administration by way of the London company of Goldsmiths. ‘Richard Fermor (1480/84-1551) of Isham and Easton Neston, Northamptonshire and London, merchant of the Staple of Calais, merchant. Fermor was given a share in the contract for victualling the royal army during the Tournai campaign of 1513, and he exported large quantities of wheat, flour, beer barrels, cannonballs, harness, and saltpetre. As a reward he was given licences to export wool direct to Italy. … In 1524 Fermor was in Florence and gave financial assistance there to John Clerk, Wolsey's agent, who was negotiating for the cardinal's election to the papacy. At the time of his fall (1529), Wolsey owed Fermor £125 for various silks.’ For both Dauntsey and Fermor see History of Parliament Online for fuller details. George Dalison of Clothall in Hertfordshire, Cransley in Northamptonshire and Gray’s Inn, c.1480-1524. Gave 40 marks (£26 13s 4d) for the Auditorship of the Exchequer in 1507, and served in that office to 1521. Wolsey’s ability to keep a large number of troops supplied and equipped for the duration of the Anglo-French War (1512-14) was a major factor in its success. Wolsey also had a key role in negotiating the Anglo-French treaty of 1514, which secured a temporary peace between the two nations. Under this treaty the French king, Louis XII, would marry Henry VIII’s young sister, Mary. In addition, England was able to keep the captured city of Tournai and to secure an increase in the annual pension paid by France. The present document dates from the beginning of the power struggle between Wolsey and his co-signatory the Duke of Norfolk, who had fought for King Richard III at the Battle of Bosworth (1485), and made an important contribution, as Earl Marshal, to the coronation of King Henry VIII. Norfolk challenged Wolsey in an attempt to become the new king’s first minister, although eventually accepted the cardinal’s supremacy. Two months before signing the present document Norfolk had been instrumental in crushing James IV’s forces at Flodden, 9 September 1513. His signature, T Norfolk, is anomalous since his father’s dukedom was not restored to him until 1 February 1514. It was also at the time of signing this document that Wolsey was given a significant opportunity to demonstrate his talents in the foreign policy arena. The war against France had begun in 1512 and, although the first campaign was not a success, Wolsey learned from his mistakes and in 1513, with Papal support, a joint attack on France was launched. Thomas Lovell, one of the privy councillors who signed the warrant, supervised the procurement of artillery and the fortification of Calais between 1511 and 1514 (ODNB). A handsome document of exceptional rarity.

Rare. 'Relatively little is known about Mrs. Belnos. Her husband, Jean-Jacques Belnos, was a French miniaturist and lithographer, who had travelled to India in 1807, and established a practice in Calcutta as a painter of miniatures and portraits of the British, a business which his widow seems to have continued following his death' (De Silva, Colonial Self-Fashioning in British India, c.1785-1845, pp. 106-7). Abbey speculates that Mrs Belnos was Indian, but she was in fact almost certainly the daughter of William Moore, assistant surgeon in the Bengal army. This seems to be her second and last published work, following Twenty four Plates Illustrative of Hindoo and European Manners in Bengal, which appeared in 1832. Another copy was sold in these rooms on 20 January 2021 (lot 5).
