"Dissertatio Polemica De Prima Origine Augustissimae Domus Habspurgo-Austriacae : in qua viginti diversae opiniones authorum ventilantur, et vera origo a Carolo Magno Imperatore eiusque Maioribus Franco-Germanis Cum multiplici Praerogativa", Labaci (Ljubliana), second edition, beautiful leather binding blindstamped, interior fresh, complete 330 pp., 34x25cms, frontispice a bit loose, a very nice copy of this rare work on the history of Charlemagne. Charlemagne has been called the "Father of Europe" (Pater Europae),[6] as he united most of Western Europe for the first time since the classical era of the Roman Empire, as well as uniting parts of Europe that had never been under Frankish or Roman rule. His reign spurred the Carolingian Renaissance, a period of energetic cultural and intellectual activity within the Western Church. The Eastern Orthodox Church viewed Charlemagne less favourably, due to his support of the filioque and the Pope's preference of him as emperor over the Byzantine Empire's first female monarch, Irene of Athens. These and other disputes led to the eventual split of Rome and Constantinople in the Great Schism of 1054.

Glasgow Andrew Foulis, first edition, 40x25cm, green leather binding with gold striping in very good condition, interior solid and fresh, complete, a very good copy. James Thomson (11 September 1700 Ednam, Roxburghshire – 27 August 1748 Richmond upon Thames) was a Scottish poet, playwright and prose writer. Thomson is best known for his poetic work, especially his cycle of poems about the seasons, which would eventually be published in 1730 under the title The Seasons, and his long poem The Castle of Indolence. He also wrote the lyrics to the still popular patriotic song Rule, Britannia!, which was set to music in 1740 by Thomas Arne.

Bruges Joannem Baptistam Kerckhovium, in-4° 31x21cms, engraved half page map of Flanders, engraved 'succession tree' of Flemish Counts, engraved key to heraldry, and some 300 engravings of seals. Bound in contemporary vellum, title in ink on spine, ties intact. Very sharp and dark impression, minor handsoiling to covers, ex-libris on front cover, generally very good, an excellent copy. Rare first edition of Olivier de Vrée's (1596-1652) compendium of seals of the Counts of Flanders, a volume notable both for its antiquarian rigor - the work remains a standard reference on the subject - and for its some 300 copperplate engravings meticulously cataloguing the development of seals from the establishment of Flanders as a country in the ninth century (the 878 A.D. seal of Count Baldinus) to the time of the book's publication (the seals of Philip IV). Wax sigilla, impressed using a unique engraved metal matrix, were specific to individuals or institutions and used to certify official documents such as title deeds. Seals attracted the same sort of antiquarian study as coins - with which they were often collected and displayed - owing to their value as witnesses to ancient languages, history, art, and politics. Nor was the study of seals without real world importance during the seventeenth century, when reference to centuries-old documents could spark or halt the redrawing of European borders. The illustrations of the Sigilla Comitum Flandriae are profuse and of the highest technical quality. Executed by two father-son teams, Samuel & Adriaen Lommelin and François Schelhaver père et fils, the 300 engravings of seals are at once faithful to the wax artifacts they depict and even improve upon these models: Several specimens of exactly the same design but differing in size from each other by only a few millimeters are dutifully reproduced in separate engravings, while the fine detail of many engravings (especially the later examples) far surpasses that found in the seals themselves or even the engraved matricies with which they were impressed. The Sigilla Comitum Flandriae also contains a fine map of Flanders labeled with ancient toponyms, a depiction of the tomb slab of Gilles the Norman (d. 1227), a 'key' to help the reader identify coats of arms, and a tree of the succession of Flemish Counts, the latter with city views of Bruges and Ghent. Dutch and French editions of the Sigilla Comitum Flandriae followed in 1640 and 1641, but with engravings printed separately and not integrated into the textblock as in the present first edition. - Bruges Joannem Baptistam Kerckhovium, in-4° 31x21cms, carte demi-page gravée des Flandres, 'arbre de succession' gravé des comtes flamands, clé gravée de l'héraldique, et quelque 300 gravures de sceaux. Reliure en vélin de l'époque, titre à l'encre au dos, liens intacts. Epreuve très nette et sombre, légères salissures sur les couvertures, ex-libris au premier plat, très bon état général, excellent exemplaire. Rare édition originale du recueil des sceaux des comtes de Flandre d'Olivier de Vrée (1596-1652), volume remarquable tant par sa rigueur antiquaire - l'ouvrage reste une référence incontournable en la matière - que par ses quelque 300 gravures sur cuivre répertoriant minutieusement les développement des sceaux depuis l'établissement de la Flandre en tant que pays au IXe siècle (le sceau de 878 après JC du comte Baldinus) jusqu'au moment de la publication du livre (les sceaux de Philippe IV). Les sigilles de cire, imprimées à l'aide d'une matrice métallique gravée unique, étaient spécifiques aux particuliers ou aux institutions et servaient à certifier des documents officiels tels que des titres de propriété. Les sceaux ont attiré le même type d'étude antiquaire que les pièces de monnaie - avec lesquelles ils étaient souvent collectés et exposés - en raison de leur valeur en tant que témoins des langues, de l'histoire, de l'art et de la politique anciennes. L'étude des sceaux n'était pas non plus sans réelle importance mondiale au XVIIe siècle, lorsque la référence à des documents séculaires pouvait déclencher ou arrêter le redessin des frontières européennes. Les illustrations de la Sigilla Comitum Flandriae sont abondantes et de la plus haute qualité technique. Réalisées par deux équipes père-fils, Samuel & Adriaen Lommelin et François Schelhaver père et fils, les 300 gravures de sceaux sont à la fois fidèles aux artefacts en cire qu'elles représentent et améliorent même ces modèles : plusieurs exemplaires exactement du même dessin mais différents en taille les uns des autres de seulement quelques millimètres sont consciencieusement reproduits dans des gravures séparées, tandis que la finesse des détails de nombreuses gravures (en particulier les exemples les plus récents) dépasse de loin celle trouvée dans les sceaux eux-mêmes ou même les matrices gravées dont ils ont été impressionnés. Le Sigilla Comitum Flandriae contient également une belle carte de la Flandre étiquetée d'anciens toponymes, une représentation de la dalle funéraire de Gilles le Normand (mort en 1227), une "clé" pour aider le lecteur à identifier les armoiries, et un arbre des succession de comtes flamands, ces derniers avec des vues sur la ville de Bruges et de Gand. Les éditions néerlandaise et française du Sigilla Comitum Flandriae ont suivi en 1640 et 1641, mais avec des gravures imprimées séparément et non intégrées dans le bloc de texte comme dans la première édition actuelle.

Goeree Wilhelmus, "Voor-Bereidselen tot de Bybelsche Wysheid en gebruik der heilige en kerkelijke historien…", Amsterdam, first edition, 2 volumes, 39x26cms, complete with all 1716 pages + 36 index pages and 86 full page engravings, leather binding with some wear but strong, interior very fresh, corners with some wear, a good copy. RARE beautifully illustrated monograph on biblical history with numerous engravings, throwing light on the 17th-century attempts at reconstructing the biblical history and bringing it up to date with the latest scientific discoveries. The engravings alone justify the high value of this book to anyone interested in biblical history and research, also for one without thorough knowledge of Dutch. The illustrations include many plates with archaeological objects related to biblical history, the breathtaking views of ancient monuments and illustrations of biblical scenes, such as the plan of the Temple and its precincts, Noah`s ark, the tower of Babel, and many others. ,

Mit einem das Motiv füllenden, auf den rechten Arm sich stützenden Halbakt mit provokantem Blick zitiert Heckel den erreichten Stand der künstlerischen Aussage der 'Brücke'-Kunst. Mit dem lapidaren 'KG Brücke bei Emil Richter' unterstreicht der Künstler bereits die Errungenschaft einer geschäftlichen Verbindung der 'Brücke' zu Emil Richter; der Ort der Lokalität 'Pragerstraße' verschwindet nahezu im Kleingedruckten. Wieder ist es der Holzschnitt, den die 'Brücke'-Künstler als ihr Medium nunmehr auch für das großformatige Plakat (wieder)entdecken. Und dies nicht nur, weil der emotionale Prozess der Entstehung wie hier unmittelbar sichtbar wird. Heckel versteht den Einsatz von verschiedenen Messern, um die Gegensätze zwischen Zeichnung und Schrift zu zeigen und dabei den Charakter der Oberfläche mit den stehenbleibenden Graten als künstlerische Position herauszustellen und (extra) fein im Kleingedruckten den Hinweis auf den Drucker am unteren Bildrand rechts zu vermerken: 'Littmann Oldg'. Der für Holzschnitte sonst übliche Eigendruck scheint Heckel für eine große Auflage nicht mehr gegeben. Heckel, der sich im Sommer in Dangast bei Schmidt-Rottluff aufhält, lässt dieses Plakat mit einem satten Rot auf beigem Papier bei der seit 1863 bestehenden, alteingesessenen Druckerei Littmann in Oldenburg drucken.

In comparison with the design by Kirchner from a year earlier, Erich Heckel’s poster for the 2nd exhibition at art salon Emil Richter on Prager Straße in Dresden signifies an innovative radicalization of the hitherto outdated, two-dimensional design method of poster art. With a half-nude leaning on her right arm and a provocative look, Heckel underlines the artistic statement of 'Brücke' art. With the succinct 'KG Brücke bei Emil Richter' the artist emphasized the achievement of a business connection with Emil Richter; the location 'Pragerstraße' almost disappears in fine print. Again, it is the woodcut that the 'Brücke' artists (re)discovered as their medium now also for the large-format poster. And this not only because the process of creation becomes directly visible, as is the case here. Heckel understands the use of different knives to show the contrasts between drawing and writing, emphasizing the character of the surface with the ridges as an artistic position and mentions the printer in small print in bottom righ: 'Littmann Oldg'. Instead of printing the woodcut himself, as it usually was the case, it was not an option for such a large edition. Heckel, who was staying with Schmidt-Rottluff in Dangast during the summer, has this poster printed with a rich red on off-white paper at the established print-shop Littmann in Oldenburg, which was founded in 1863.

A LARGE PALE GREEN AND RUSSET JADE 'DOUBLE DRAGON' PENDANT, HUANG, EARLY WESTERN HAN 西漢早期大型青玉帶沁雙龍紋璜China, 2nd century BC. The elegantly curved huang with a stylized dragon head to either end. The mostly translucent stone of a sea-green tone with cloudy white and russet inclusions and shadings. Pierced for suspension.Provenance: The Collection of Irene and Wolfgang Zacke. The couple has been active in the art trade for well over half a century and were one of the first in Austria to offer Asian works of art for sale, starting in 1968. Since the late 1980s, they have been collecting ancient Chinese jades, building an extensive collection over the decades.Condition: Very good condition with old wear, signs of weathering, minuscule nibbling to edges, shallow surface scratches and other traces of use, minor erosion.Weight: 227.6 gDimensions: Length 33.5 cmThe surface is densely covered with small and slightly raised hexagons, a pattern called pu, or 'cat tail'. During the Han dynasty, this motif was mostly used to decorate large funerary discs with carved masks. The squarish indentations carved on the border at the extremities of the ornaments evoke the stylized features of two dragon heads in profile: the chin, mouth, snout, and horns.Literature comparison: Three related huang carved with patterns of small, raised curls and hexagons were excavated from the princely tombs at Shizishan (Xuzhou, Jiangsu) between 1994 and 1995. Similar huang with jagged profiles but decorated with spirals and dated to the late Eastern Zhou period, are in the National Museum of History, Taiwan, and in the Samuel and Myrna Myers collection. Compare also with a very similar, yet significantly smaller pair in F. Salviati, 4000 Years of Chinese Archaic Jades, Edition Zacke, Vienna 2017, no. 285.Auction result comparison: Compare with a related jade huang, of significantly smaller size and dated to the Eastern Zhou dynasty, at Sotheby's New York in Fine Chinese Ceramics & Works of Art on 18-19 March 2014, lot 151, bought-in at an estimate of USD 10,000-15,000.西漢早期大型青玉帶沁雙龍紋璜中國,公元前二世紀。弧形,典雅的黃褐色,兩端龍首,總體海綠色,半透明的玉石,帶有絮狀物和赤褐色的內含物。 穿孔。来源:Irene 與Wolfgang Zacke收藏。這對夫妻一直活躍於藝術品行業已有半個多世紀,自1968年起他們開始在奧地利經營亞洲藝術品,是最早的商人之一。自1980年代後期以來,他們一直在收集中國古玉,數十年來建立了一個大規模的收藏。 圖片:Irene Zacke 與 Prof. Filippo Salviati教授品相:狀況良好,有舊磨損,風化,細微的邊緣磕損,表面淺划痕和使用痕跡,輕微腐蝕。重量:227.6 克尺寸:長33.5 厘米拍賣結果比較:一件相近的東周玉璜,尺寸更小,見紐約蘇富比 Fine Chinese Ceramics & Works of Art 拍場2014年3月18-19日lot 151, 估價 USD 10,000-15,000.

LAGAVULIN 15 YEAR OLD WHITE HORSE DECANTERSingle malt.The Islay distillery of Lagavulin first gained notoriety in 1862 when it was acquired by the well-known blender, John Logan Mackie. He then passed the reins to his nephew Peter, who is credited with the creation of the highly regarded White Horse Blend. This blend was so successful that by 1924 the Mackie group changed their name to White Horse Distillers, before becoming part of the DCL group a few years later. Lagavulin single malt was still produced under the White Horse Distillers name until the late 1990s when it became part of the Diageo conglomerate.The most famous advocate of Lagavulin is probably fictional character, Ron Swanson, from hit US sit-com Parks & Recreation. However, Nick Offerman (the actor who plays Ron) must also enjoy a drop, as he has partnered up with the distillery to create his own limited-edition whisky.45% ABV / 75clPlease note that these decanters were sold unsealed by the distillery.

GLENMORANGIE 10 YEAR OLD GRAND SLAM DRAMSingle malt.Famous for their unique stills, each as tall as an adult giraffe, and their passion for innovation, Glenmorangie remains one of the best-selling single malts in the world. They were one of the first distilleries to experiment with cask finishing; the process of transferring spirit from one cask type to another in order to impart additional characteristics and flavours.To further this agenda of innovation, in September of 2021 Glenmorangie began production at their new “Lighthouse” facility, a futuristic R&D department protruding from the heart of their traditional distillery complex like a monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey. Off limits to the public, it is home to a “sensory lab” as well as two of Glenmorangie’s signature stills, each of which plays host to several classified modifications. Only time will tell what exciting innovations will filter down to the rest of the industry.A limited edition Glenmorangie celebrating the Scottish national rugby team winning a Grand Slam in 1990.40% ABV / 75cl
