Milton (John) Poems of Mr. John Milton, Both English and Latin, Compos'd at several times, first edition, state with "S" in "S. Pauls" in imprint, engraved frontispiece portrait by William Marshall neatly window-mounted, woodcut initials, woodcut and typographic decorations, lacking a1 blank (as often), G7 with small rust-hole touching text, occasional scattered spotting, but a very good copy generally, the Cortlandt F. Bishop copy with his morocco book-label to pastedown, handsome crushed blue morocco, gilt, by Bedford, spine gilt in compartments, g.e., [Pforzheimer 722; Wing M 2160], 8vo, Printed by Ruth Raworth for Humphrey Mosely, and are to be sold at the Signe of the Princes Arms in S. Pauls Church-yard, 1645.⁂ The first collected edition of Milton's poems and the first to bear Milton's name on the title. The frontispiece was the first portrait Milton had published of himself, however he was so unimpressed with the likeness that he insisted on the inclusion of the Greek inscription below that openly mocked the image ("my friends, looking at my countenance, know not whom it represents, but laugh at the awkward imitation of the stupid artist"). The present collection includes all bar two of Milton's poems written up to this point and other than 'Comus', 'Lycidas' and a few minor works is the first appearance in print for the majority of his poetic works.

18th Century Tokens, County series, Markes Lambe, Lutwyche’s Halfpenny, horseman galloping left, wiltshire yeomanry cavalry around, revs. three horseman left, one carrying flag, edge grained, 9.51g/6h (DH 1). Fields rubbed, otherwise extremely fine, patinated £90-£120 --- About 650 struck for Markes Lambe (1776-1846), the Bath trader and numismatist, who removed to Beaminster, Dorset, and later Yeovil, where he practised as a surgeon. On 4 June 1794, at a meeting at the Bear Hotel in Devizes, the decision was taken to create bodies of yeomanry cavalry throughout Wiltshire; the first troop, of 56 yeomen, had already been formed at Bishops Cannings on 12 May. Initially consisting of ten troops acting independently and mustered over the following 12 months, they combined to form a single regiment, the Wiltshire Yeomanry Cavalry, on 15 April 1797. It is suggested that these tokens were struck at about that time. Command of the new body was given Sir Charles Brudenell-Bruce, 1st Marquess of Ailesbury (1773-1856), the captain of the Marlborough troop and MP for the borough from 1796 to 1814. In June 1798 all ten troops paraded for the first time at Devizes and marched to Beckhampton Down, where Lady Bruce presented five standards; the regiment then comprised 28 officers and 595 NCOs, a total figure not unadjacent to the numbers of tokens struck, whether by accident or design

Pierre Migeon IV (1696-1758) A Regence commodeRosewood veneered with two long and three short drawers Hardware of reliefs and gilt decoration Marble top Stamped "MIGEON" France, 18th century (minor losses and faults, restoration to top)86x136x65 cm Special Notes:Pierre Migeon IVPierre Migeon IV was born in Paris on August 13th, 1696, at the heart of a long dynasty of French cabinetmakers, the son of Pierre Migeon III (1665- 1717), grandson of Pierre Migeon II (1637-1677) and great-grandson of Pierre Migeon I. He learned his trade within his family’s business, his official recognition as master cabinetmaker, “maître-ébéniste”, awarded to him at an unknown date before 1729. In 1739 he would become the master in the Migeon’s ancestral workshop. From early on in his career he acted as both dealer, “marchand”, and cabinetmaker, subcontracting labour from contemporary peers. This detail regarding his professional life, explains the numerous extant pieces that bear his stamp together with that of other makers. Such is the case of the bureau «de Vergennes» from the Louvre Museum collection, that features stamps for Migeon IV and for Jacques Dubois. From amongst the many renowned and most accomplished cabinetmakers that supplied Migeon stand out Léonard Boudin, Jacques Bircklé, Roger Vandercruse, Charles Topino, Gérard Péridiez and Mathieu Criaerd. Despite his many suppliers, the pieces bearing his stamp tend, nonetheless, to share impressive stylistic uniformity. Structurally his furniture privileges serpentine shapes, often truly robust, albeit not evidencing an excessively accentuated rococo taste. The veneers are restrained, infinitely entangled and almost always organized in geometric patterns and decorative cartouches of floral motifs enhanced in darker rosewood and mahogany timbers, a decorative solution that Pierre Migeon IV was one of the first to adopt. Although seldom present, his marquetry work is of outstanding quality, emerging vividly in diamond shapes, cubes, flowers or birds, well known in typologies such as reading tables, corner cabinets and secretaires. Of greater rarity is his use of lacquer and vernis Martin. Bronzes, ubiquitously mounted in many of Migeon’s contemporaries’ furniture, are rarely present in his production.By researching the Rue de Charenton, in the Faubourg Saint-Antoine, family workshop accounts books from the 1730s, it is clear that the company was prosperous and proficuous, the average annual sales for that decade reaching sums of between 23,000 and 37,000 francs. They are also elucidating in terms of the Migeon’s clientele, amongst which were members of French aristocracy, such as Louis XIV natural daughter Françoise Marie, Duchess of Bourbon (1677-1749), the Duke of Orleans (1703-1752) and the Duchess of Rohan-Rohan (1713-1756). From 1740 onwards Migeon IV will become supplier to the “Garde Meuble de la Couronne” and to other major French court figures such as the Duke de Boufflers and the Duke of Noailles, as well as to Louise de Orleans (1698-1743) and to Madame de Pompadour (1721-1764), who will endow him with a 3,000 francs pension. In addition to these prestigious patrons, he could also count amongst his customers many French high society politicians and financiers, clergy, ambassadors and foreign princes. On his death in 1758 he was succeeded by his son Pierre Migeon V (1733- 1775). Between 1775 and 1785 the business was managed by the latter’s widow, who would eventually be forced to declare bankruptcy and to close doors. Pierre Migeon IV superb artistry and sophisticated production place him at the level of other contemporary cabinetmakers such as André-Charles Boulle, Charles Cressent, Antoine Gaudreaux e Jean-François Oeben.TIAGO FRANCO RODRIGUESLiterature: F. de Alvetre– Les ébenistes du XVIII siècle : Leurs oeuvres et leurs marques.
