Lot 354
An early 19th century study of the Cheshire Foxhounds in kennel, the plaque to the base inscribed 'Cheshire Hounds 1840 Calvert' oil on canvas 58 x 83cmProvenance: The picture has passed by descent through the Smith-Barry family and subsequently through the marriage of Captain Anthony Villiers MFH and Rosemary Bell, daughter of the Hon. Dorothy Elizabeth Bell (nee Smith-Barry). The Cheshire were the first pack of foxhounds in Cheshire formed in 1763. Their master was the Hon. John Smith-Barry, son of the fourth Earl of Barrymore, of Marbury Hall. Among the hounds was the famed Blue Cap, the original painting of this hound held in the vendor's collection. Blue Cap had beaten the hound owned by Hugo Meynell, founder of the Quorn Hunt, in a race held in 1762. Of interest, the first known idiomatic use of the phrase "sent to Coventry" appears in the Tarpoley Club book entry for 4 November 1765 relating to Smith-Barry.‘Mr. John Barry having sent the Fox Hounds to a different place to what was ordered, and not meeting them himself at that place, was sent to Coventry, but returned upon giving six bottles of Claret to the Hunt’. Hunting songs: together with a short account of the Tarporley hunt club, from its foundation in 1762 to the year 1869By Egerton-Warburton R.E.

Logbook. Germany, ca. 1950.Brass, iron and wood.Mid-20th century binnacle with brass bell. In wood, where the signature of the German maker "W. HARTMANN" can be read. Consists of three pieces.Measurements: 155 x 72 x 84 cm.The binnacle is an instrument that was fixed to the deck of the ships, near the rudder, to facilitate navigation in unknown oceans. It is a piece of furniture bolted (fixed) to the roof of a ship's bridge containing a magnetic compass, held in place by means of a gimbal suspension in order to counteract the transverse and longitudinal synchronism of the ship. On the outside it carries the so-called faith line which must be aligned with the ship's centre or centreline. Magnets are placed inside to counteract the earth's magnetic field. On the sides of the cubichete, there are two spheres of soft iron, to cancel out the deviation produced by the iron of the ship itself and to make the magnetic field surrounding the nautical needle uniform so that it points to magnetic north at all times.In the past, when ships did not have a covered wheelhouse, the so-called logbook was usually kept inside the binnacle to protect it from inclement weather.
