Registration No: PDY 508R Chassis No: FH87589 MOT: September 2022Comprehensively restored between 2006 and 2008Entered current ownership in 2015Uprated with a five-speed manual gearboxOffered with a history file including a pictural record of the restorationEvolving through five guises over the course of an eighteen-year production run, the final Spitfire variant, the 1500, arrived in 1974. With a reputed 71bhp and 82lbft of torque on tap from its 1493cc OHV four-cylinder engine, the newcomer boasted genuine 100mph performance. Visually indistinguishable from its MKIV forebear save for some minor trim differences, the Spitfire 1500 was a decent seller on both sides of the Atlantic and the model remained in production until August 1980.This Spitfire 1500 was manufactured in 1977 and was UK-supplied, being first registered in the UK on the 1st of July 1977. Fitted with the 1493cc straight-four engine, the engine was originally mated to the four-speed manual gearbox although the transmission was changed to a five-speed Sierra Type 9 gearbox with revised bell housing when the car was restored approximately fifteen years previous. The restoration additionally included an overhauled chassis, body removal with many welding repairs (with new rear wings, sills, floor sections, door skins and rear valance) followed by a repaint in the Inca Yellow it is presented in today (from the original Green). The Triumph was further subject to an engine overhaul; reconditioned steering rack, renewed brakes with GT6 front calipers; poly-bushed front suspension with the whole car lowered by 20mm; and various new additional items such as reconditioned twin-SU HS2 carburettors and much more.With a recorded mileage of 10,701 miles (at time of consignment) which equates to a total of 110,701 miles, the Spitfire has been in current ownership since 2015. Further benefitting from new electronic ignition and fan while with the vendor, the carburettors have also been provided new needles. ‘PDY 508R’ is offered with a history file which comprises a photo album and digital record of the restoration; a large selection of past MOTs dating back to the 1990s; a vast collection of previous invoices and current V5C.Footnote: For more information, please contact: Paul Cheetham paul.cheetham@handh.co.uk 07538 667452

1978 MG BGT, 1798cc. Registration number BFK 303T. Chassis number GHD5 465873 G. Engine number 18V 847 H 24081.The MGB-GT was originally introduced in 1965. By 1967, incremental changes lead to the designation of Mark II (officially the 1968 model year). This model continued in production until August 1971, and was then superseded by the Mk III in October 1971, from chassis number 258004. Like the Mk I and II, the Mk III is a two-door 2+2 powered by a front-mounted, rear-wheel-drive 1798cc B Series engine. The Mark III had a revised interior, with centre console housing rocker switches and two vents in the middle. An armrest was fitted between the front seats, which now had nylon inserts.In October 1974, from chassis number 361001, the model underwent its most dramatic visual change when large black 'rubber' bumpers on front and rear were added to meet US impact regulations. The nose was redesigned and front indicators incorporated into the bumper. The ride height of the car was increased slightly and overdrive included as standard.BFK was owned by Charles Bolland of Wolverhampton in the 1980's and then in 2019 Michael Rollason of Doncaster bought selling it to our vendor in November 2020. At some point it has undergone a full, engine out , respray from the original Inca Yellow to the the current blue, the seats have been replaced with cream leather, the dash board replaced with a wooden version and proper splined chrome splined wire wheels added.The MOT history shows 61,571 in 2012, it was then off the road until 2018 at 61,735, presumably the period of its restoration. Today it shows 61,891 miles.Sold with the V5C and various paperwork, this MB is now ready to be enjoyed over the summer months.

1979 Triumph Spitfire 1500, 1493cc. Registration number GED 830V. Chassis number FH 133903. Engine number FP 48619E. The Spitfire was conceived by Standard-Triumph to compete in the small sports car market against the Austin-Healey Sprite. The Sprite had used the drive train of the Austin A30/A35 in a lightweight. The Spitfire used mechanicals from the Herald. Where the Austin A30 used monocoque construction, the Herald used body-on-frame ? a chassis Triumph was able to downsize, saving the cost of developing a completely new chassis-body unit. Giovanni Michelotti, who had designed the Herald, styled the bodywork, which featured wind-up windows (in contrast to the Sprite and Midget, which used side curtains) and an assembly of the bonnet and wings that opened forward for engine access. The Spitfire's introduction was delayed by its company's financial troubles in the early 1960's and was subsequently announced shortly after Standard Triumph was taken over by Leyland Motors. When Leyland officials, taking stock of their new acquisition, found Michelotti's prototype under a dust sheet in a factory corner, it was quickly approved it for production. The Mark IV featured a redesigned rear design similar to the Triumph Stag and Triumph 2000 models, both also designed by Michelotti. The front end was revised with a new bonnet pressing eliminating the weld lines on top of the wings/fenders, door handles were recessed, the convertible top received squared-off corners. The interior was revised to include a full-width dashboard, with instruments ahead of the driver rather than over the centre console, initially finished in black plastic and beginning in 1973 finished in wood. The 1500 followed in 1974. GED was first registered in December 1979 and by 1991 was with Mr Prescott of Hornsea, followed by Mr Lane in 1992, the mileage at this time was 78,989. Our vendor bought it as project in December 1996 and started a body off restoration, a spare body tub was sourced from California, the chassis was blasted and painted, a new bonnet, boot and door skins came from Rimmers as was the exhaust system. All components were giving a refresh and the car was repainted in the original Inca Yellow and a new hood fitted. Completed in 1998 the speedo was reset and an MOT obtained, used very occasionally ever since, the mileage is now only 1,494 miles. A testament to the custodian the car has not deteriorated since and started with ease for the journey to the saleroom. Sold with the V5C, MOT's 1998-2003 and 2019, a variety of receipts from the restoration, some from its past and various Spitfire manuals. It should be noted that the engine block is from a MG Midget 1500.

A carved wooden staff head of a Mochica or Chimú ruler, in the form of a standing figure of a man with his hands clasped to his body, a satchel hung across his shoulders, his skirt-like dress slit at the knees, wearing a crown-like headdress, under a toothed and arcaded mandorla, the figure is decorated with circular, square and triangular pieces of haliotis inset on the crown, arcaded top and robes; mounted on a custom-made display stand.Cf. Jackson, M.A., ‘The Chimú Sculptures of Huacas Tacaynamo and El Dragon, Moche Valley, Perú' in Latin American Antiquity, vol. 15, no.3, September, 2004, pp.298-322, fig.13e.182 grams total, 32cm including stand (12 1/2"). Property of a French gentleman living in Paris; previously in a private Swiss collection, Basel; formerly with Sotheby's, London, UK, 1 December 1958, lot 155; accompanied by a copy of the relevant Sotheby's catalogue pages.The moche or mochica civilization grew and developed during the pre-Inca era, between the 1st and 8th centuries AD, in the long and narrow strip desert land of the northern coast of Peru. The terms moche and mochica are conventional and refer to the Rio Moche, a river that laps one of the monuments left by this ancient civilization, the Huaca del Sol, and to the Muchik, an ancient dialect spoken in La Libertad. The wooden sculpture found in the Mochica and Chimú civilizations one of its highest expressions. Deep in the enormous citadel of the great Chimú culture capital city of Chan Chan, the archaeologists, in 2018, uncovered a corridor containing nineteen mysterious black wooden statues. Some are wearing masks of clay, tucked into special alcoves that line the walls. This wooden sceptre was made for a heroic warrior or ruler. The Necur (mother of pearl) was used for his necklace and headgear. His headgear is made of a double-headed snake, or two snakes symbol of protection of the warrior. Fine condition.

ROSA MUNDI "Rosone" 2020/21Serie Figli delle Sfere Armillari Vetro, legno, plastica, tempera, materiale marino organico. In Meduse e in Rosone , presente anche nella versione dei Tamburi†e “Figli delle Sfere Armillari†oltre che delle sfere armillari spiega in modo figurativo e sonoro la percezione dell’artista nell’essere umano e animale, allineato nello spazio come un pianeta fluttuante nell’infinità dell’universo. Le meduse escono dal mare e si dirigono verso l’universo mare, racchiudendo tra il rosone e il giudizio universale il de stino dell’uomo evidenziando la metamorfosi del concetto spaziale. I punti cardinali si rarefanno e d il sotto ed il sopra perdono ogni punto di riferimento in una prospettiva spaziale dell’universo e del mondo che fluttua nello spazio e noi su di esso. Rosa Mundi costruisce una particolare sfera armillare, composta da tre cerchi di ferro ellittici, inca stonati una dentro l’altra, anticamente anelli circolari delle antiche botti quattrocentesche custodite nella magica atmosfera delle antiche cantine di vino del Castello di Morsasco, in Piemonte sulla via francigena. Ognuna dei tre cerchi tratteggia una sfera con una propria immaginaria eclittica. La prima, partendo dal cuore dell’armillare, è divisa in sezioni corrispondenti ai dodici segni dello Zodiaco. La sfera armillare era destinata a mostrare sia la precessione sia la cosiddetta trepidazione degli equinozi, tanto in voga nel ‘400. L’originaria teoria dell’astronomo greco Ipparco, nel II secolo a.C., sul diverso tempoimpiegato dal sole per giungere all’equinozio, di primavera in primavera, riconosceva un lento spostamento delle stelle, parallelamente all’eclittica, in senso contrario al moto diurno tale da dare origine allo spostamento dei punti equinoziali di primavera ed autunno. Questa teoria venne denominata la precessione degli equinozi. Nei secoli a seguire ci pensarono gli scienziati arabi a cronometrare lo slittamento degli equinozi con un avanzamento più rapido da 1 a 66 anni, rispetto a quello di Ipparco ossia da 1 a 100 anni, sino a teorizzare u n cambia mento nella velocità di precessione, come se questa fosse una funzione del tempo che doveva essere determinata sulla base delle osservazioni. Con la sua installazione Rosa Mundi indaga quindi il gioco del tempo nell’indagine astronomica che, come variante matematica, deve considerare l’alea della inevitabile successione dell’imprecisione del calcolo umano. Al tempo stesso anche il gioco delle forme, coniato e definito dal pensiero umano, si deve aggiungere l’ulteriore incognita dell’obliquità dell’eclittica,anch’essa variabile. L’artista crea un legame storico ed emozionale tra il presente, il passato ed il futuro, dove la memoria regna sovrana tra le fibre delle sue opere e lo sguardo dello spettatore. Lungo le pareti interne delle opere una scritta in tempera naturale fluorescente ci rivela il messaggio segreto dell’opera di cui il collezionista è chiamato ad essere principale guardiano e traghettatore. Rosa Mundi costruisce uno spazio infinito dentro le opere in legno ed in ferro, denominate “SFERE ARMILLARIâ€, “TAMBURO†e “THE BOXâ€, sovrapponendo una sull’altra due lastre di vetro plastificato c he raffigurano l’inizio e la fine del pensiero umano che si fa da verbo ad immagine, da racconto a ricordo, da sinfonia a memoria, da nota musicale a storia. Le immagini sono impresse dall’artista con pigmenti naturali e tempera a freddo, mescolata ad un materiale naturale, tratto dalle membrane delle meduse. All’interno di ogni opera, perfettamente autoportante, sono tracciati i pensieri dell’artista nelle lingue, definite morte, di una umanità che ci ha preceduto , ossia inaramaico, persiano, latino e greco antico. Il significato intrinseco dell’opera è contenuto nel concetto spaziale del verbo, nel tempo della sopravvivenza dell’opera e del detentore medesimo, oltre l’umana percezione del collezionista, chiamato ad esserne custode e principale interprete vivente. La fisicità del concetto spaziale, ossia l’immaterialità della percezione dell’infinito nelle opere di Rosa Mundi sono l’essenza del “non luogoâ€. Rosa Mundi con la sua produzione artistica mira a proseguire oltre i confini della visione materica dei tagli di Fontana generando infinite smagliature di luce, tra la trasparenza, l’immaginario e della sovrapposizione degli sguardi.

He had use of a studio in the house and during his visit in early 1914 painted the present portrait and one of the sitter's husband Baron Conrad de Meyendorff (inventory number 111504), now untraced. The artist's autobiography notes that he was 'feted everywhere' and his sitters included important figures in Parisian society: Vice-President Jean Dupuy (4479), M. and Mme de Bruyn (110548 & 4822), the Comtesse de Pourtalès (4848) and the Vicomtesse de Fontenay (4468).De László painted a full length portrait of Baroness Meyendorff in 1908 (110711). Her husband was also painted in 1916 in London wearing Russian naval uniform (4842).Nadezhda 'Nadine' Vladimirovna Louguinine was born 18 February 1881, the daughter of Vladimir Feodorovitch Louguinine (1834-1911) and his wife Maria Petrovna Minier. Her father was a scientist in the field of thermodynamics and worked in Paris and St Petersburg. On 1 February 1903 she married Baron Conrad von Meyendorff (1880-1945), an officer in the Russian Navy. There were two sons of the marriage: George (born 1904) and Vladimir (born 1906), both of whom died in a tragic accident in 1924. The family lived at 10 Chesham Street, London from 1911, while Baron Meyendorff served as a diplomatic attaché in the Russian Embassy. Baroness Meyendorff and her husband were intrepid explorers. They spent their honeymoon on the Inca trails in Peru and Bolivia, where Nadine took some two hundred photographs and wrote a diary. These were published as L'Amazonie d'une baronne Russe, Des Andes à l'Atlantique en 1903. She and her husband collaborated on L'Empire du Soleil: Pérou et Bolivie, published in 1909.Nadine was also a courageous and expert mountain climber. The family had a home at Chiètre, Switzerland, and by the time she was eighteen she had completed climbs of the Alpes Vaudoises and the Dents du Midi. In 1925 she became the first woman to reach the peak of Cerro Tolosa (5730m) in the Aconcagua Mountains in Argentina. Nadine died in 1930, aged only forty-nine. Her husband survived her fifteen years and died in Madrid in 1945.We are grateful to Katherine Field for writing the catalogue entry for this lot, which will be included in the Philip de László catalogue raisonné, currently presented in progress online: www.delaszlocatalogueraisonne.comThe Hon.
