Title: Louise De Hem (1867-1922): Before the Calvari (in Flanders), oil on canvasDescription:Work: 176 x 138,5 cm Frame: 214 x 174 cm The lady on the left is more than likely the painter's sister, Helene. She was married to the painter Theodore Ceriez (1831-1904), who was also a teacher at the Academy of Ypres (link). The setting is the St. Martin's Cathedral, Ypres (link). The work can also be seen as a confrontation between the different forms of religion, in particular experience versus book knowledge (illustrated by the contrast between young and old and light and dark). Provenance: - Private collection, Belgium. Ref.: - Part of the exhibition 'Salon de la Societe des Artistes Francais' in Paris in 1900 (no. 384). - Part of the exhibition ''Exposition Triennale des Beaux-Arts' in Brussels in 1900 (no. 160). - Part of the exhibition 'Woman's Exhibition' in London in 1900. - Part of the exhibition 'Louise/Edith. Op handen gedragen' in the Ypres Cloth Hall, November 19, 2022 - March 12, 2023 (no. 40, also mentioned on p. 29 of the accompanying guide). - Jan De Wilde and Annick Vandenbilcke, Louise De Hem 1866-1922, Ypres, 1922, p. 75, C-38.

Now rightly considered one of the greatest performance Fords ever, this best-of-breed example has covered just under 16,000 miles and was previously owned by the Chairman of the Owner’s Club.  In 2002, Ford launched the Focus RS, returning those famous letters to one of its cars for the first time since the Ford Escort RS Cosworth. The new Focus RS was inspired by Colin McRae's WRC rally exploits and featured a 2-litre Duratec RS engine with an advanced turbocharging system and oil-spray cooled pistons to achieve more power - which eventually peaked at 215bhp and 0-60mph in 6.4 seconds. The chassis was developed and a Quaife torque-biasing differential (when you turned into a corner and applied the power, it dug in like no other front-drive car to make the Focus superlatively quick across country) fitted to ensure optimal front-wheel drive tractability. Suspension was by uprated offset coil springs with Sachs Racing dampers whilst stopping power was provided by Brembo brakes. The cabin was competition-inspired and featured leather and Alcantara Sparco seats. The exterior of the car took a number of styling cues from the WRC rally car and even used custom 18'' O.Z. Racing alloy wheels as a nod to its competition cousin.Making the Focus RS this good on back roads meant changing almost every component; in the end, the roof, doors and bonnet remained the same as any other three-door Focus, but the rest of the exterior bodywork was new. In all, 521 parts were created just for the Focus RS, from the Sparco seats and handbrake lever, unique dials, and starter button to the suspension and brakes.Ford built 4,501 Focus RS Mk1s, all individually numbered and all thought to have been sold at a £4,000 loss to the company. Out of that total, 2,147 RS Mk1s were sold in the UK, making it by far the biggest single market for the car that was only sold in Imperial Blue. Today, the Focus RS Mk1 maybe still splits drivers’ views, but what isn’t in doubt is this is now a prized modern classic.The car presented here is a 2003 Focus RS Mk1 which is superbly-presented and original, has covered just under 16,000 miles and has a reassuringly thorough Ford main dealer maintenance history. Interestingly, it was featured in the ‘Essential Buyer’s Guide’  for the Mk1 Focus RS and ST170 and was previously owned by the head of the Mk1 Focus RS Owner’s Club. It is accompanied by the original owner’s book-pack, original Sales Invoice and documentation, MOT certificates, servicing invoices and two keys with alarm fobs.The car was last serviced in August 2021 at 15,946 miles by Ford main dealer Coopers of Oulton, who changed the engine oil and filter. Prior to this, Sandicliffe Ford Store performed oil changes in August 2020 at 15,635 miles, and in July 2019 at 15,519 miles.

Lot 666

A superb low-mileage example of JaguarSport's very special, hand-built, 6-litre XJR development, one of the last of the 115 cars ever produced.One of the rarest of all XJS, the XJR-S was a special development by JaguarSport, a conjunction between Jaguar and Tom Walkinshaw’s TWR. Owned 50/50 by both parties, JaguarSport was launched in 1988, and planned to produce the epitome of all things Jaguar, and with the XJR-S they certainly achieved that. Hand-built at JaguarSport in Kidlington by the TWR engineers who had worked on the XJ220. With the focus of the car not just being upon the unique engine fitted to those cars made post 1989, the chassis was developed to ensure this was the most competent it could be to handle the 160mph top speed from its V12 engine. Compared favourably to Italian and German competitors of the time, the work between Jaguar and TWR certainly ensured these of all XJS are the most sought-after. The JaguarSport  XJR-S may have looked similar to their production counterparts but differed immensely with many parts unique to the model and, of course, its 6-litre V12 engine. The engine was rated at 318bhp and was 700cc larger than the previous 5.3-litre V12. A modified intake system, Zytek engine management and a low-loss true dual exhaust system were part of the car’s advanced specification. The Hydramatic GM400 was modified with different 'changing points' to better suit the 6-litre car, and a Salisbury limited-slip differential was standard. The suspension was further-developed by TWR with increased coil spring rates and the Bilstein shocks, front and rear, were specially tuned for the XJR-S.Externally, the cars were modified with a subtly aggressive body kit, 16" 'Speedline' aerodynamic wheels and host of modifications inside included a bespoke Connolly Autolux leather interior and the steering wheel was made for JaguarSport by Momo of Milan. They were normally built to order, with cars being transported from Browns Lane to Kidlington to be hand-finished. At £45,500, it was £11,000 more than the 5.3 which explains why a little over 500 were made (115 in RHD) before production stopped in 1993 making them highly sought after today.This low-ownership, very low-mileage example comes with an excellent history file, detailing services from delivery in 1993 until 2005 with just a few periods of inactivity until it had covered 23,000 miles approximately. It has covered very few miles since that point, indeed only showing a touch over 29,500 miles at the time of cataloguing, having formed part of a large private Collection for the last few years. Owned by our vendor since 2016, it's supplied with its original book-pack, tool roll and more, and a history file detailing relatively recent expenditure including brake pipe replacement, a power-steering refresh and some interior cosmetic work to ensure that the car remains at its best. With a fresh MOT and, at guide price that could only be described as sensible given the results for some recent XJS sales, this very special car is sure to create interest from collectors of the very best Jaguars. SpecificationMake: JAGUARModel: XJR-SYear: 1993Chassis Number: SAJJSAES3EK185754Registration Number: K615 GOOTransmission: AutomaticEngine Number: 8W010745SB Drive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 29092 MilesMake: RHDInterior Colour: LeatherClick here for more details and images
