He grew up in South Africa to where his Greek father had emigrated, and studied at Johannesburg Art School, Beckenham School of Art and St. Martin's in London. Having worked as a cartoonist in South Africa, covering Nelson Mandela's trial for treason in 1958, he returned to Britain as a cartoonist and illustrator. He spent the 1970s living in Greece with his second wife Tessa Pares and they collaborated on Papas' Greece published in 1997, but which appears to be a different work from that offered here.

Symmetry.- Beerbohm (Max) Portrait of a Lady, sepia ink symmetrical drawing, signed and dated '1919' in the lower right corner, further inscribed lower left, sheet 315 x 207 mm (12 1/4 x 8 1/8 in), under glass, minor surface dirt and light browning, framed, 1917 Provenance:Ernest Brown & Phillips Ltd., The Leicester Galleries;Mrs. M. G. McleanExhibited:The Leicester Galleries, Max Beerbohm, May 1921⁂ The symmetrical folding technique employed appears to have been a method that Beerbohm utilised in a very similar drawing 'Saturday Afternoon', which is now held in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York (see acc. no. 1978.590.3).

L.]), poet and writer, 1802-38) Album of manuscript poetry and engravings compiled by ?Landon, 12pp. of poetry including original poems by Allan Cunningham, Henry Brandreth, William Fraser, Moscati, Planche etc. (all laid down), 10 engraved portraits and letterheads (some loose), 2 pencil drawings and 1 pen and ink drawing, together 25 items excluding blanks, a few items removed, upper hinge broken, contemporary straight-grained morocco, gilt, elaborate gilt borders, edges and corners slightly rubbed, gilt panelled spine, g.e., 4to, 1825 - May 1827.⁂ Inscription at front: "Letitia Elizabeth Landon May 1827 Bound by the magic in the spell/Of the sweet letters L.E.L."

Mecca, Medina & Damascus.- 2 manuscript plans of Mecca and El Medinah and a map of Damascus, 3 highly detailed pen and ink drawings with 3pp. of manuscript notes, together 6pp., all folding, ?removed from an album, 380 x 230mm. & 262 x 200mm., [probably late 19th century].⁂ Plans of Mecca and Medina of this period are particularly rare and it is unclear whether they are first-hand accounts or copies from existing maps, although pencil under-drawing and the numerous annotations would suggest the former. These holy places were forbidden to non-Muslims and very few Europeans had made the journey and lived. Both J.L. Burckhardt and Richard Burton made the journey and left detailed accounts of their visits. There appears to be no details of the construction of the Hejaz Railway, which ran between Damascus and Medina and opened in 1908.

Colin Tennant.Provenance: Jimmy Walker, one of three senior partners in the architectural practice of Robertson Ward Associates. While Messel had a flair for design he needed an architect to to put his designs into reality.

Fourth edition of the earliest English treatise on dialling, or the design of sundials, and the author's only known publication. First published in 1593, it was reissued by Felix Kyngston in 1626, 1627, 1633 and 1652. The last 16 leaves comprise a table of sines, and was the first trigonometrical table to be printed in England. The author identifies Hondius as the engraver of the diagrams in his dedication to Thomas Osborne 'one M. Iod Hondius, who hath shewed himselfe an excellent workeman in the great Globes set forth by M. Mullineux, and the Maps of England for M. Camdens booke'. The extensive and highly technical annotations at the front and rear of the volume provide examples of how to make a variety of sundials, as well as a description of a visit to a clock maker in Bankside, London, on August 6th 1657: "Aug. 6th 1657 was at Mr Ahasuerus Foremantle at ye Bankside, & saw an exelent clock that he bin studying and making, at tymes tweenty yeers and stood him in 200 LL,: & it went with springs: & turned upon a spindle like a windmill it was about 13 inches square & 30 inches high: one the foreface it had a hand to point the houer going round in 12 houres & upon the same center went another hand about in one hower shewing the minuts. and right under the center of the hand was a motion that went about once a yeer rasing the 12 signes with a litle pointer fixed to the center of the hand; which shewed in what sine & deg the [sun] was in each day in the yeer...".
