Ticking, together with the original numbered safety winding key. 18cms (7 ins) wide.Footnotes:Provenance: This chronometer was acquired by the current owner in the early 1990's from a sea captain in Cornwall. The captain was involved in the provisioning of Arctic and Antarctic voyages. This chronometer was purchased by the Royal Observatory in 1901 and Greenwich records have shown that it was used by Ernest Shackleton in 1921, likely as part of the Quest expedition of Antarctica in 1921-1922. This expedition was deemed 'the last of the great voyages of discovery' and was also the last voyage that Shackleton would undertake. Originally conceived as an Arctic voyage to travel north of Alaska, a last-minute loss of funding meant that the expedition could not go ahead. John Quiller Rowett, who had agreed to partially fund the Arctic voyage, remarkably agreed to fund the entirety of a new, replacement mission - but it had to be south-bound to the Antarctic. This chronometer was collected by Shackleton from Greenwich 21 July 1921 and the voyage began on 17 September of that year. Shackleton was unwell on board the Quest, and unfortunately, by the time the ship reached South Georgia, he was quite ill. He died of a heart attack shortly after arriving on 5 January 1922. He was buried on South Georgia as it was not feasible to send his body back to the U.K. Despite a double attempt by the remaining crew over the next year to reach Antarctica, they were not successful. The chronometer was recorded as being returned from Portsmouth to Greenwich in December 1925 and was sent to Kullberg for servicing the following year.Kullberg 6611 was well-acquainted with Antarctic conditions, having accompanied Dr. Mawson's Australasian Antarctic Expedition 1911–14. Dr. Douglas Mawson had previously been the geologist on Shackleton's 1907 Nimrod expedition and had been part of the group to first reach the magnetic South Pole. He collected the chronometer from Greenwich on 24 July 1911, and the Australasian Antarctic Expedition began in December of that year. Unlike previous expeditions, this voyage wasn't concerned with geographical exploration, but natural sciences exploration. Their goal was to increase the knowledge of Antarctica as a location; what its weather, flora, fauna, and geology were like. In all, 3,000 km of coastline were investigated over two winters. Dr. Mawson would publish an account of the expedition in 1915; it is interesting that he notes 'It was necessary for two men to remain behind at the base to keep the meteorological records, to wind chronometers, to feed the dogs and to bring up the remainder of the stores from the edge of the ice cliff.' In addition to Kullberg 6611, there were two sideral chronometers from the Adelaide Observatory, in addition to a variety of other chronometers and half-chronometers, some specially made for the voyage. For the majority of the expedition, the Australian army officer and expedition astronomer, Robert Bage, was in charge of the chronometers. Two chronometers were also carried by Mawson and his exploration party when they explored Antarctica with dog sleds, though it is not known which chronometers were taken with them.Kullberg 6611 was returned to Greenwich in 1914; it was quickly serviced by Kullberg and then installed on the HMS Honeysuckle on 24 May 1915. This ship was one of a group of floral-titled ships known as the 'Flower Class', which served as minesweepers and later as convoy escorts during the First World War. The HMS Honeysuckle was deployed around Turkey and was manned by mostly Australian and New Zealander crew. The chronometer was returned to Greenwich in 1920, quickly serviced, and then collected by Shackleton, as noted above. After the Shackleton voyage, it was extensively serviced, before being sent to Hong Kong for five years. The Greenwich records of its use end in 1936. We are indebted to Mike Dryland of the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, for accessing the records for Kullberg 6611.Mawson, D.

AMENDMENT- please note this lot is unframed.David Hockney OM CH RA, British b. 1937- Waiting at York, 180, 2010; ipad drawing in colours on wove, signed, dated and numbered from an edition of 25, 94 x 71.1 cm, (unframed) (ARR) Note: Hockney’s experimentalism with new medias and technologies is represented in ‘Waiting at York’, an early iPad drawing, made in the first year Hockney was working on an iPad. Prior to working on an iPad, Hockney experimented with the capabilities of an iPhone. Hockney first discovered the iPhone during the winter of 2008. “I was fascinated by it, because I think it’s a stunning visual tool”. He stated that “It took a while to master how to get thicker and thinner lines, transparency and soft edges. But then I realised that it had marvellous advantages.” He uses an app called Brushes. “People keep sending me new drawings apps to try out, but once you get used to one it’s sufficient.” Hockney often explores new technologies in his art. In the mid-1980s he bought one of the first colour photocopying machines and used it to create a series of works entitled Hand-Made Prints. A few years later, he did the same with the fax. When discussing using an iPhone, he states “There are gains and losses with everything. You miss the resistance of paper a little, but you can get a marvellous flow. So much variety is possible. You can’t overwork this, because it’s not a real surface. In watercolour, for instance, about three layers are the maximum. Beyond that it starts to get muddy. Here you can put anything on anything. You can put a bright, bright blue on top of an intense yellow.” In 2010, Hockney got his first iPad and was immediately converted to using that instead. “I thought the iPhone was great, but this takes it to a new level – simply because it’s eight times the size of the iPhone, as big as a reasonably sized sketchbook.” One discovery that came with the iPad was that the process of drawing could be re-run at the tap of a finger. The screen goes blank again, then lines and washes reappear one after another, apparently of their own accord. The result is, in effect, a performing drawing.Please refer to department for condition report
