Lot 1

The Todd Family of Sunderland, a dedicated pair of stained glass lancet windows, 'To the Glory of God and in loving memory of James Dowell Todd and Isabella Todd. Presented by their daughter Florence Todd', stained, painted and leaded glass, the first depicting Christ The Good Shepherd, the second an illustration of John 8:12 "I am the Light of the World", within Gothic architectural borders, each consisting of a rectangular panel and an ogee panel, measuring overall 163cm by 62cm each. * Provenance : The aisle windows of Burn Park Road Methodist Church, Sunderland (known previously as Thornhill Methodist Church), built 1902-1903 by TR Millburn and JE Miller. The Millburns also built the Empire Theatre in Sunderland. The windows were designed by Atkinson Brothers of Newcastle Upon Tyne. William, Frederick and Albert Atkinson started their business at 125 New Bridge Street, Newcastle upon Tyne in 1876. William died in 1890, and the others continued in business. A large amount of their work involved memorial windows after World War One. Frederick died in 1927 and Albert sold the business to Reed Millican in the early 1930s. These panels were manufactured by Hartley Wood & Co Glass Works in Sunderland, using the Atkinson designs. CONDITION REPORT: Auctioneer's comments regarding the method of photography employed - Due to the scale of some of these windows, and the fact that they have been separated into their constituent panels since being removed from the church, it was not possible to photograph them as a complete, assembled structure. Instead, the panes of each window were photographed separately. They were placed on a window sill, allowing natural sunlight to illuminate them from behind. The surroundings of each panel were cropped out of the image, and the resulting panes of glass were superimposed onto a black background, then aligned as they would have been originally, therefore creating a realistic depiction of the complete window as it was within the church. Whilst I am happy with the overall result, it did prove difficult to replicate the overall perspective of some of the larger pieces, and separate panes could not be aligned perfectly edge-to-edge in every instance. Photographing panels at different times of day also resulted in varying levels of light, meaning some panels are slightly more illuminated than others. For additional photographs, or further comment regarding the condition of these windows, please email sam@millersauctioneers.co.uk. Images also exist of the windows prior to their removal from the church, and can be provided upon request.

17th Century Polychrome Winged Cherub In, German, 17th Century, The Manner of Hans Krumpper, polychrome cherub head and wings carved limewood, with hand written label to rear for 'Hans Krumper Sud deutsche 17th hundert' 67cm wide Hans Krumpper (circa 1570 – between May 7 and 14, 1634) was a German artist, celebrated for his roles as a sculptor, plasterer, architect, and arts intendant under the patronage of Bavarian dukes William V and Maximilian I. Originating from Weilheim in Oberbayern, Krumpper embarked on his career at the Bavarian court in 1584. He succeeded Friedrich Sustris as the court's lead artist in 1599 and ascended to the position of chief sculptor in 1609. His work, deeply influenced by Italian and Dutch mannerism, marked the advent of the first fully-realized Bavarian Early Baroque sculptures. Krumpper passed away in Munich. His legacy includes significant contributions like the design of the Old Residence in Munich and the crafting of the tomb monument for Emperor Louis IV in the Munich Frauenkirche. Notably, his major project, the church of the Minims in Munich, although demolished in 1902, remains a testament to his architectural prowess.

An atlas for pharmacists, druggists and students of pharmacy, Vol 1, 2 & 3, 29cm x 22cm "Die mikroskopische Analyse der Drogenpulver" is a comprehensive atlas written by Dr. Koch, providing an in-depth microscopic analysis of powdered drugs. This three-volume set was an essential reference for apothecaries, druggists, and pharmacy students. Published in 1906 by Verlag von Gebrüder Borntraeger in Leipzig, the third volume specifically delves into herbs, leaves, and flowers, enriched with 23 lithographed plates. Each volume offers detailed illustrations and descriptions that aided in the identification and analysis of various plant materials used in drug preparation. Dr. Ludwig Konrad Albert Koch, born to lawyer Johann Jacob Koch (1805–1886) and Dorothea Wilhelmine (née Schilling, 1827–1907), was a prominent figure in the field of botany. His academic journey began at TH Darmstadt and Ruprecht-Karls-University Heidelberg, culminating in a doctorate in philosophy on August 8, 1874, from Heidelberg. Koch's early career saw him serving as an assistant at the Phytophysiological Institute and Herbarium. His academic prowess earned him a professorship at Heidelberg on June 4, 1877. Following a brief tenure as a lecturer and acting head of the Plant Physiological Institute at the Agricultural Academy in Proskau, Koch returned to Heidelberg, where he made significant contributions to botany from the winter semester of 1878/79 until 1929. His academic journey saw several milestones: he became an extraordinary professor on February 7, 1882, an honorary professor on March 15, 1902, and was honored again with the title on February 21, 1908, all at the University of Heidelberg. Koch's achievements were recognized on November 29, 1885, when he was elected a member of the German Academy of Natural Scientists Leopoldina, matriculation number 2560. His distinguished career was further acknowledged in 1910 when he was awarded the Knight's Cross First Class of the Order of the Zähringer Lion.
