17th century German architrave.Rosewood and walnut with lemongrass and fruitwood marquetry.The chest stands on a modern iron table.Measurements: 66 x 88 x 46 cm; 135 x 88 x 48 cm (with base).An important Renaissance-heritage chest made in Germany at the end of the 17th century. It is a type of bargueño that continues the models established in Augsburg, a German city that became one of the main centres of furniture production, particularly famous for its fine and intricate marquetry. Cabinetmakers in this southern German city specialised in cabinets for storing small precious objects. These luxury cabinets were entirely decorated with elaborate marquetry depicting cityscapes, classical Renaissance ruins or intricate vegetal elements, as well as a variety of ornamental motifs taken from contemporary German engravings and prints.This extraordinary chest has a hinged front which, when opened, reveals an intricate classical vegetal design on the inside, based on the use of dark wood fillets inlaid into lighter wood, composing classicistic motifs including sinuous vegetal scrolls. Marquetry covers both the interior and exterior of the piece, a common feature of the German Renaissance. Particularly worthy of note is the treatment of the exterior panels, which depict Renaissance architecture, demonstrating the painstaking skill of the cabinetmaker, who recreated the vanishing points and perspective that set the tone for Italian architecture in the 15th century. On the outside of the cabinet is the cut-out, openwork coat-of-arms. On the inside, the cabinet reveals a division into three sections, the side sections with up to five drawers each, each decorated with the vegetal design already worked into the rest of the chest. The central section has a door decorated with Renaissance architectural motifs, while the interior is ornamented with skilful fruit motifs. The chest stands on a modern iron table.

Harrap, [1938]Footnotes:RARE EXAMPLE OF A PRESENTATION COPY INFORMALLY INSCRIBED BY 'WINSTON' TO A CLOSE FRIEND. The recipient, 'George', was Lord Lloyd, who had first entered parliament as an M.P. in 1910, subsequently working closely with Churchill throughout his political career. When Churchill became Prime Minister in May 1940 he appointed Lloyd to his Cabinet as Colonial Secretary, at the same time as he was chosen as leader of the House of Lords. On his death a few months later Churchill addressed the House, stating 'To me the loss is particularly painful. Lord Lloyd and I have been friends for many years and close political associates during the last twelve years. We championed several causes together which did not command the applause of large majorities; but it is just in that kind of cause... that one learns the worth and quality of a comrade and friend' (quoted in Churchill's preface to Life of Lord Lloyd by Colin Forbes, 1948). 'These forty speeches are a sustained effort to maintain the peace in Europe and safety of Britain... If British interests are set in the foremost place, it is only upon the condition that they shall serve the cause of a free and progressive world' (Randolph S. Churchill, introduction).Provenance: George LLoyd, Baron Lloyd of Dolobran (1879-1941), gift inscription from the author; by descent to the present owner.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: •• Zero rated for VAT, no VAT will be added to the Hammer Price or the Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
