He returned to Paris in 1727 where, despite a general moving on in fashionable styles, he enjoyed a vogue extraordinaire.

The Naval General Service Medal awarded to Able Seaman George Brace, who witnessed the destruction of the Danish 74 Prindts Christian Frederick as a Landsman in the Stately, and afterwards, in the boats of the Princess Caroline, shared in a bloody encounter with Russian gun-boats in the Gulf of Finland Naval General Service 1793-1840, 2 clasps, Stately 22 March 1808, 25 July Boat Service 1809 (Geo. Brace.) minor edge bruises and scratching in both fields, otherwise good very fine £8,000-£10,000 --- Provenance: Sotheby, November 1894; Debenham’s, December 1897; W. E. Gray Collection 1898; Glendining’s, May 1920, November 1952, July 1956, and March 1973; Christie’s, November 1985; Glendining’s, September 1991; John Goddard Collection, Dix Noonan Webb, November 2015. Stately 22 March 1808 [31 clasp issued] - 15 medals known, including examples in the National Maritime Museum; Royal Marines Museum; Honeyman Collection (Huntington Library, U.S.A.); and the Patiala Collection (2), (Sheesh Mahal Museum, India). 25 July Boat Service 1809 [36 issued] - 14 medals known, including examples in the National Maritime Museum (2), the Royal Naval Museum, and the Patiala Collection (Sheesh Mahal Museum, India). George Brace is confirmed on the rolls as a Landsman on board the Stately at her action with the Danish 74-gun Prindts Christian Frederick in March 1808, and in the same rate on board the Princess Carolina for her boat action of 25 July 1809. George Brace was born in London and joined the Navy on 3 July 1807, being taken on board the Stately as a Landsman on 29 October of the same year, aged 20 years. His next ship was the Princess Caroline which he joined on 22 September 1808, being advanced to Ordinary Seaman in February 1810, and to Able Seaman in April 1811. He left the Princess Caroline on 21 September 1814, to join the Tanais in which ship he served until paid off on 31 May 1816. Sold with copied muster lists and statement of service. Stately and Nassau destroy the 74-gun Danish ship of the line Prindts Christian Frederick On 22 March 1808, at 2 p.m., the British 64-gun ships Stately, Captain George Parker, and Nassau, Captain Robert Campbell, proceeding towards the Great Belt, descried and chased a strange sail. At 4 p.m., off the Jutland coast, the stranger was made out to be an enemy, and at 5 p.m., a Danish ship of the line, which evidently intended to run herself ashore, if no other means of escape presented itself. At 7.40 p.m. the Nassau got up with, and opened fire upon the Danish 74-gun ship Prindts Christian Frederick, Captain Jessen, and, in a few minutes afterwards, the Stately closed and did the same. A running fight was thus maintained, with great obstinacy on the part of the 74, until 9.30 p.m., when the Prindts Christian Frederick struck her colours. At this time the latter was within less than 500 yards of the shore of Zealand, and, before the first lieutenant of the Stately, who had gone on board to take possession, could cut away her anchor, the prize grounded. The two British ships, fortunately for them, had already brought up near her. The remaining part of the night was employed in removing the prisoners, but it was found impossible to get the captured ship afloat. In the evening of the 23rd, as the Danes were preparing their artillery on the coast, and as the wind blew strong on the shore and a good deal of sea was running, the Prindts Christian Frederick was set on fire by her captors, and in a short time blew up. The loss on the part of the Stately was two seamen and two marines killed, and one lieutenant, the boatswain, one master's mate, 23 seamen and two marines wounded. The Nassau had one seaman killed and one missing, and one first-class volunteer, 10 seamen and five marines wounded; the total British loss amounting to five killed and 45 wounded and missing. The Prindts Christian Frederick, out of a complement on board of 576 men and boys, had 55 killed and 88 wounded. The boats of a British squadron capture three Russian gun-boats in a most sanguinary affair off the Gulf of Finland On 25 July 1809, Captain Charles Dudley Paten, commanding a British squadron, composed of his own ship the Princess Caroline 74, the Minotaur 74, Captain John Barrett, the 18-pounder 32-gun frigate Cerberus, Captain Henry Whitby, and the 18-gun ship-sloop Prometheus, Captain Thomas Forrest, permitted the latter to lead the boats of the squadron, 17 in number, to the attack of four Russian gun-boats and an armed brig, lying at Fredericksham, near Apso roads, in the gulf of Finland. After dark the boats, commanded by Captain Forrest, pushed off from the squadron, and at 10.30 p.m. commenced the attack. After a most desperate and sanguinary conflict, three of the gun-boats, mounting two long 38-pounders each, and having on board between them 137 men, besides an armed transport brig, with 23 men, were captured and brought off. Costly, indeed, were the prizes. The British loss amounted to one lieutenant, one second lieutenant of marines, one midshipman, and six seamen and marines killed; Captain Forrest himself, one lieutenant, three midshipmen, and 46 seamen and marines wounded. The Russians, on their side, acknowledged a loss of 28 killed and 59 wounded, making a total of 47 men killed and 110 wounded, in obtaining possession of three gun-boats. One of these gun-boats, No. 62, was so obstinately defended, that every man of her 44-man crew was either killed or wounded before she surrendered, 24 of these being killed. The result of this enterprise was a defeat to the Russians certainly, but under circumstances that reflected the brightest honour upon the character of their navy. For the gallantry he had shown on the occasion, Captain Forrest was promoted to post-rank.

A GEORGE II WALNUT EIGHT-DAY LONGCASE CLOCKWILLIAM CREAK, LONDON, CIRCA 1740The five pillar rack and bell striking movement with anchor escapement regulated by seconds pendulum, the 12 inch brass break-arch dial with calendar aperture and subsidiary seconds dial to the matted centre within applied Roman numeral chapter ring with Arabic five minutes beyond the minute track, with pierced steel hands and brass twin bird and urn cast spandrels to angles, the arch with circular herringbone border engraved silver signature boss inscribed William Creak, LONDON flanked by dolphin cast mounts, in a break-arch case with generous arched cavetto cornice and fretwork frieze over hinged glazed dial aperture with applied with three-quarter columns to front angles, the sides with break-arch windows and conforming quarter columns set against bargeboards at the rear, the trunk with concave throat moulding over book-matched burr-veneered and herringbone banded break-arch door with complex edge mouldings, the sides with twin crossbanded panels, the plinth base with cavetto top mouldings over burr panel veneered herringbone and crossbanded fascia and a moulded skirt.229cm (90ins) high, 54cm (21.25ins) wide, 26cm (10.25ins) deep. William Creak is recorded in Baillie, G.H. Watchmakers & Clockmakers of the World as a 'fine maker' who worked in London from 1754-63. Other sources indicate that he was working from 1740-75 and his workshop was located in the Royal exchange from 1754. Creak supplied musical and automaton clocks for export to the Middle East and China and often incorporated similar complications into examples made for the domestic market.Condition Report: The movement is complete and appears fundamentally all-original with no visible alteration or noticeable replacements. The mechanism is reasonably clean and working however a precautionary gentle clean/service is advised. The dial is also in good relatively clean unaltered condition with faults limited to some patchy discolouration to the silvering and mellowing of the finishes in general. The movement and dial retain what appears to be the original seatboard however there are packing slips (around ¾ inch thick) hence we cannot offer any assurances that the case is original to the movement and dial although they would seem to be perfectly suited.The hood is in good condition; the frets have been replaced otherwise faults are very much limited to minor historic bumps, scuffs, shrinkage and wear commensurate with age. There are two socket holes to the top suggesting that a pair of finials were fitted at some point. The trunk also is in fine condition with particularly nice figured veneers. The trunk door retains its original lock but the hinges are replacements. The front of the door has some shrinkage cracking to the veneers and there is some visible historic movement/bowing to the frame around the door (does not detract from the clock as is a evidence/result of the genuine age of the piece). The plinth has been restored with replacement veneers with the colour of the burr figured fascia panel being darker than the rest of the case; this probably be improved in the hands of a good restorer/finisher. The backboard has opening to the vertical joint between the two boards which form the panel; two horizontal batons have been applied across the back to further brace the panel.Clock is complete with two weights, pendulum, crank winder and two case keys. Condition Report Disclaimer
