A mythological Flemish tapestryBrussels, mid to late 17th centurywoven in rich threads, depicting a courtly scene set in Carthage illustrating the story of Dido and Aeneas, Aeneas standing to the left and Achates kneeling to the right, Aeneas, resplendent in his armour, wafting into Dido's throne room on a cloud, the Queen of Carthage, seated on a throne which stands on an Oriental carpet, wearing an elaborate dress, a crown adorning her coiffured hair, her courtiers wearing typical tunics, flowing robes and some with turbans, the cityscape of Carthage visible to the middle distance to the right of the main field, the border on brown ground, filled with spiralling acanthus leaves and fruiting prunus,478cm x 308cmFootnotes:The present lot depicts the story of the doomed Queen Dido and the young Trojan prince Aeneas. This particular scene can be found in the Aeneid Book I, Line 550 where the Goddess Venus, advises Aeneas to go into the city of Carthage and meet the Queen, Dido who, she says, will welcome him. Aeneas, along with his loyal friend Achates approach Carthage and are concealed by a cloud, conjured by Venus. When they arrive at the court of Dido, they find many of their comrades who were lost and scattered in the storm. Achates asks Dido for help in re-building their fleet, which she agrees to. Dido says that she would like to meet Aeneas at which point Achates reveals his hitherto shrouded leader.The story of Aeneas was a popular one amongst the prestigious noble houses of Europe in the 16th and 17th centuries. Some Northern European Courts had sets of tapestries showing the story of Troy and claimed that these had come directly from Aeneas. Some European Royal families even claimed Aeneas as a direct ancestor. This is understandable since Aeneas arguably exemplified not just a link between Troy and Rome but the leap from ancient paganism to imperial civilisation.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: * TP* VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.TP Lot will be moved to an offsite storage location (Cadogan Tate, Auction House Services, 241 Acton Lane, London NW10 7NP, UK) and will only be available for collection from this location at the date stated in the catalogue.

CAPABLANCA JOSE RAUL: (1888-1942) Cuban chess player, World Chess champion 1921-27. T.L.S., Capa, one page, 4to, Havana, Cuba, 30th June 1940, to his second wife Olga Chagodaev ('Ma chere Kikiriki'), in French and English, on the printed stationery of the Hotel Packard. Capablanca states that his wife's letter arrived yesterday evening and that he is pleased she is settled and with new furniture ('Because you know how well I like clean things and old furniture always has a dirty air about it'), adding that he has written a letter to the bank, who will take care of payments, and further discussing domestic plans in New York, 'The arrangement that you made is good: you will have the month of July to arrange the apartment, without paying for anything. For the rugs, I believe that one must buy them in New York also. I believe you should have a carpet for the bed room and a rug for the living room…..Take it easy about fixing up the apt., now that you have where to put the furniture you can take your time. Should you be invited to spend a week-end somewhere by some Lady friend of yours, go ahead and take a rest. Do not forget to have a clause in the contract that in case we go away some where (sic), we have the right to sublet the apt. I hope that it will not happen, but we should be prepared for any eventuality'. Accompanied by the original envelope. VG
