Ein Oeuvreverzeichnis, Bd. II, Amsterdam 1973, S. 334, Nr. 741 und Bd. III, Doornspijk 1987, S. 231, Nr. 741 (mit Abb.).Flusslandschaften bildeten bereits zu Beginn der künstlerischen Laufbahn des in Leiden geborenen Jan van Goyen ein zentrales Motiv seines Oeuvres. Waren es zunächst vorwiegend frontale Ansichten in einem kräftigen Kolorit, ging er ab den späten 1620er Jahren zu einem diagonalen Bildaufbau über, der durch einen schräg in den Hintergrund führenden Uferstreifen gebildet wird, während der Vordergrund komplett von der spiegelnden Wasserfläche eines Flusses eingenommen wird. Unser 1642 datiertes Gemälde entstand in der Hochphase der monochromen oder tonalen Landschaftsmalerei, deren Pionier van Goyen neben Salomon van Ruysdael und Pieter Molijn war. Das Kolorit besteht deswegen lediglich aus wenigen, meist warmen Tönen in Erdbraun, Ocker und Olivgrün, die subtil moduliert werden. Der im vorliegenden Gemälde nur leicht diagonal angelegte Uferstreifen beginnt am linken Bildrand mit einem in dunkleren, verschatteten Tönen gemalten Turm und führt über ein bereits deutlich heller dargestelltes Kirchdorf und eine Windmühle bis in die unendlich scheinende Weite der holländischen Landschaft im rechten Hintergrund. Mehrere Boote im Vordergrund verstärken als Repoussoir die Illusion der räumlichen Tiefe. Die von den Horizontalen der Wasserfläche, des Uferstreifens und des Himmels dominierte Komposition erfährt vertikale Akzente durch den hoch aufragenden Kirchturm, die Masten der Segelboote und die Windmühle. Nicht weniger als rund drei Viertel der Bildfläche wird vom Himmel eingenommen, der von schweren weißen und grauen Wolken bedeckt wird.

1973 Rolls-Royce Phantom VI Transmission: manualMileage:46399Introduced alongside the Silver Cloud II and Bentley S2 in the Autumn of 1959, Rolls-Royce's new limousine model, the long-wheelbase Phantom V, effectively replaced both the royalty/heads-of-state-only Phantom IV and the Silver Wraith. The latter's relatively short wheelbase (for a limousine) had made it all but impossible for coachbuilders to provide adequate boot space in a comfortable seven-seater automobile, a shortcoming addressed by the Phantom V. Rolls-Royce's in-house coachbuilder Park Ward Limited (later Mulliner Park Ward) produced what was, in effect, the 'standard' seven-passenger limousine coachwork for the Phantom V. This timeless design would survive until 1990, being built in near identical Phantom VI form from 1968, when separate air conditioning for front and rear compartments was standardised together with the Silver Shadow specification 6230cc V8 engine. The usual upholstery for the front compartment was leather, which was also included in the list of alternatives for the rear along with West of England cloth. As one would expect in a car of this class, a cocktail cabinet incorporated into the rear compartment's cabinetwork was one of a host of options that also included electric windows and air conditioning.Supplied new in Shell Grey with black leather front seats and Fawn West of England trim for the passengers, a combination still present today and in very good order. This coachbuilt example was supplied new to Hong Kong by Metro-Dodwell motors to the Fook Luk Sau Trading co. and delivered to the Miramar Hotel in Hong Kong in May 1974. Featuring a glass divide and drinks cabinet boasting crystal glassware, still in lovely condition today, this Phantom VI would have been and still is the height of luxury. Despite a discount of 17% the first owner paid £13,898.10 including shipping and insurance in July of 1973. This can all be found in the history file containing build sheet, order, shipping details and insurance. Interestingly, during production a last-minute request was submitted to change the colour to Acrylic White but Rolls-Royce denied this. However, they did allow safety belts to be added to the front seats. What better way to be driven than in a car that is trusted by dignitaries and Royals alike.INTERESTED PARTIES SHOULD NOTE THAT THERE IS NO V5 WITH THE SALE OF THIS LOT, THE V5 HAS BEEN APPLIED FOR AND EXPECTED IN THE COMING WEEKS, ONCE THE DVLA HAVE SUPPLIED THIS IT WILL BE FORWARDED ONTO THE NEW OWNER IN DUE COURSE. (TO CONFIRM ALL TAXES ARE PAID)Interested parties please note that the estimate on this car is now £50,000-£70,000.

1969 Rolls-Royce Phantom VI Transmission: manualMileage:The Phantom VI was an ultra-exclusive rolling chassis made from 1968-1990. From 1968 to 1973 it was manufactured by Rolls-Royce Ltd., and during 1973-1990, by its successor, Rolls-Royce Motors. Most of the whole production of 374 units were bodied as limousines, a few landaulettes (12), and at least one as a convertible, and some hearses (4). The Phantom VI was used, until 2002, as official state car by the British Queen Elizabeth II. Based on the Phantom V, the Phantom VI had a re-styled dashboard and was powered by an engine derived from the current Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow. Most of the coachwork was created by Mulliner Park Ward. The Phantom VI was the last Rolls-Royce with a separate chassis built at the London Rolls-Royce coachworks at Hythe Road, Willesden. It featured coil springs to the front, leaf springs to the rear, and drum brakes on all four wheels, later cars having hydraulic power assistance. The car was powered by a V8 6,230cc engine with twin SU carburettors and coupled to a four-speed automatic gearbox. The limousine was based on its predecessor the Phantom V with many improvements and some alterations to the exterior, notably a lower radiator grille and a sloping bonnet.This interesting Phantom VI has latterly been the property of the world's leading luxury department store Harrods and its legendary owner Mr. Mohamed Al-Fayed. Prior to joining the fleet of eight other limousines, used exclusively by Harrods for the transportation of visiting VIPs, Dignitaries and Royalty, the car underwent an extensive mechanical and body restoration to the highest standards and was refinished in Harrods' Green with a basket-weave side effect and a tan roof. It was subsequently fitted with a bespoke green leather interior by SC Gordon Ltd. complete with a television, VHS player, fax machine, wine cooler, cocktail cabinet, three telephones, and a custom headlining screen-printed with the iconic Harrods' logo. A comprehensive record of this renovation is available for inspection together with the car's previous service history. As part of Harrods fleet, it was expertly maintained in-house regardless of cost and this care has continued with our vendor. This imposing limousine has covered just 10,260 miles from new and is supplied with the aforementioned restoration and service invoices and a V5C registration document. With style, grace, luxury all under one roof, is there any wonder these cars have been enjoyed by the rich, the famous and royalty throughout the world.
