A 19th century model bronze cannon, inscribed 'Relic of Royal George Sunk 1782 - Raised 1840', 18.5cm long The H.M.S. Royal George was a 100-gun navy vessel, the largest warship in the world at the time of her launch in 1756. She was sunk at Portsmouth in 1782 with the loss of more than 800 lives. Repeated attempts were made to raise the ship, both for salvage and because she was a major hazard to navigation, lying at a depth of only 65 feet. By 1843, the whole of the keel had been raised and the site was declared cleared.

T..Hamlet (British, fl. early 19th Century), a bronze bust of His Royal Highness the Duke of York, dated 1823, portrayed in later years, togate with head turned to dexter, the reverse inscribed 'Published by T. Hamlet, 1 January 1823', mounted on a socle atop a cylindrical pedestal inscribed 'His Royal Highness, The Duke of York', all-over rich brown patina, 28cm high. Note: Hamlet appears to have been far from prolific in his output, although he was clearly highly accomplished and patronised by the very highest-placed members of society. Three years after producing the bust of the Duke of York, Hamlet sculpted his brother Prince Augustus Frederick, Duke of Sussex. Indeed, a bronze reduction was produced (dated 1826) which matched the current bronze in height exactly, and it is quite possible that Hamlet sculpted two or more of King George III's sons and daughters as an intended set See Sotheby's London, European Sculpture and Works of Art, 9th December 1993, lot 131
