Wetzer-Welte 11, 778. - Der Drucker, Verleger und humanistische Gelehrte Robert Estienne (1499/1503-1559) gilt als "the most outstanding figure in the Renaissance booktrade in France". Großen Anteil an seinem Ruhm haben seine diversen Bibeldrucke - "ironically" (Schreiber S. 45), denn ihretwegen sah sich der vormalige Imprimeur du Roy schließlich gezwungen, von Paris nach Genf zu emigrieren.Schon frühzeitig erkannte Estienne, der sich 1526 selbständig machte, die dringende Notwendigkeit, den Gläubigen die Bibel im möglichst originalen Wortlaut bzw. der zuverlässigsten Übersetzung, mit Erklärungen und Registern zugänglich zu machen - was sogleich Konflikte mit den Theologen der Sorbonne hervorrief, die "signs of heresy in every aspect of Robert Estienne’s work" (ebd.) witterten. In ihrer strikt konservativen Haltung waren sie "deaf and blind to the truth that the Vulgate was merely a translation, which, like any translation, needed to be controlled by the Hebrew and Greek originals" (ebd. 46). Die Verbote und Strafandrohungen der Jahre 1540 und 1544 konnte Estienne unterlaufen, weil Franz I. ihn protegierte, doch nach dessen Tod 1547 wurde seine Position unhaltbar. 1551 übersiedelte er nach Genf und trat zum Calvinismus über, während sein katholisch gebliebener Bruder Charles den Betrieb in Paris weiterführte. Alle Querelen können indes die historische Leistung Robert Estiennes nicht verdunkeln, die insbesondere die Gestalt des Bibeldrucks bis heute geprägt hat. Bei ihm verband sich der Anspruch auf den besten Text mit dem der didaktischen Vermittlung, sei es durch die direkte Ansprache des Lesers, Erläuterungen und Verweise, sei es durch ansprechende Gestaltung und elegante Typographie. - Papier leicht gebräunt, gelegentlich braunfleckig, einige alte Unterstreichungen, Marginalien und Tintenflecken.

A GEORGE II RED AND GILT JAPANNED LONGCASE CLOCK STEPHEN ASSELIN, LONDON, CIRCA 1725 The eight-day bell-striking movement with 12 inch brass break-arch dial applied with mask and foliate spandrels, a silvered Roman and arabic chapter ring, matt centre and subsidiary STRIKE/SILENT selection dial to the arch, signed on a silvered plaque 'Step. Asselin LONDON' the gilt and polychrome decorated red japanned case with chinoiserie landscapes, a domed caddy surmount 258cm high, 50.5cm wide, 26cm deep Provenance: Christie's, London, Property From A European Noble Family, 10th November 2005, lot 40, where purchased by Robert Kime Formerly at Docker Nook and Warwick Square, see Alastair Langlands, Robert Kime, Francis Lincoln Limited, London, 2015, p205Stephen Asselin is recorded working in London from around 1700. He is not recorded as becoming a member of the Clockmaker's Company which suggests that he was most likely a Huguenot immigrant.   Condition Report: Movement is essentially in working condition however mechanism is dirty/dusty hence a clean/service is required. Notches cut the 3 o'clock edges of the plates indicates that an alarm mechanism was once fitted that is no longer present. Otherwise movement appears complete and all-original. The dial in in original albeit in dirty/neglected condition. The centre shows evidence of being fitted with an alarm disc (curved cut-outs to the seconds ring and signature plate). The areas of silvering are now very thin presenting as almost brass in colour. The right-hand corner of the plate has evidence of being bent and re-straightened; the dial foot behind also has a small loss to the tip (section above the securing pin hole). The right-hand mount to the arch is missing a fin from the dolphin. The hour hand has been repaired; the minute hand and selection pointer to the arch are replacements. The seatboard is original to the movement which rests on blocks applied to the case uprights (cheek); the presence of these blocks suggests that the movement and dial re not original to the case. The dial sits a little wonky (leans to the right) hence some adjustment to the blocks will be required to level it.The case is very original retaining old surface in essentially untouched condition. The hood is in good original condition with notable faults limited to blind fret panels missing from the quadrants above the break-arch pediment and some historic worm damage. The rear of the superstructure is interestingly backed with old thick paper inscribed in ink with random Iberian text. The trunk and base are in very fine original condition with faults limited to some very slight localised flaking to the raised decoration; the finish can be best described as fine patinated old original surface with pleasing degree of age-related wear, discolouration and fading. The backboard is in fine condition and the skirting is also original albeit with historic worm damage and a small scarf repair to inner panel to the rear left hand corner. The left-hand side has some slight shrinkage cracking towards the rear edge; the lock to the trunk door is a replacement.Clock has pendulum, a pair of modern cast iron weights a crank winder and a case key.  Condition Report Disclaimer
