Lot 290

Ca. 200-300 AD.A schist head of the bodhisattva. Carved from schist, the head exhibits meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail, resulting in a remarkably lifelike representation. The facial features are rendered with a naturalistic precision, characterized by a pointed chin and smooth cheeks that convey a sense of softness and grace. The eyes, downcast and heavy-lidded, exude a contemplative aura, complemented by delicately arched browlines that enhance the overall serenity of the countenance. A finely sculpted nose contributes to the harmonious composition, while the lips form a subtle smile, hinting at inner tranquillity. At the center of the brow, an "urna" adorns the forehead—a distinct symbol in Buddhist iconography, often interpreted as the third eye or a mark of spiritual wisdom. The earlobes gracefully accommodate heavy round earrings. The head is crowned with an elaborate headdress, featuring a central part adorned with plumes and intricately decorated sides with floral motifs. A bodhisattva refers to an enlightened being who has chosen to postpone their own final liberation in order to compassionately assist others on their path to enlightenment. Bodhisattvas embody the virtues of wisdom, compassion, and selflessness, dedicating themselves to the liberation and well-being of all sentient beings. They are seen as compassionate guides and teachers, exemplifying the ideals of enlightenment through their actions and teachings. This item comes mounted on a custom-made stand.

In the Buddhist tradition, the bodhisattva represents an enlightened being who compassionately postpones their own nirvana to assist others in their spiritual journey.

Lot 24

Ca. 100-300 AD. An outstanding pair of bronze and iron fittings, each one comprising a spiral fluted column with an iron rod projecting from the Ionic-variant capital that is surmounted by a bust of Bacchus wearing a goat pelt with a hoof falling over his shoulder. Aside from this, his chest is revealed with delineated nipples. Bacchus' handsome face is crowned by a centrally-parted coiffure adorned by a wreath of ivy leaves and berries and pulled back into a low chignon with wavy locks cascading over his shoulders. Both of these matching busts sit upon rectangular plinths with hatched borders and a looped handle joining the plinths to the upper end of the bust's verso, just beneath the nape of the neck. Father Liber (Liber Pater) or Bacchus was the god the Romans identified with Dionysus, the Greek god of wine and fertility. He has come to be associated particularly with drunkenness and lascivious behavior. Thus, even today people speak of having “bacchic rites,” referring back to ecstatic and frenzied Dionysian or bacchic festivals such as those that take place in Euripides' play the Bacchae.

The quality of this TR's restoration is simply spectacular. One of, if not the, finest example available today.Long famed for their rugged reliability and idiosyncratic good looks, the 'side screen' TRs have attracted a fanatical following over the years. The final evolution of the Triumph TR2/TR3 sportscar line (save for the American market TR3B), the TR3A was introduced in September 1957. It was never officially badged as such and was, in fact, a minor revision of the TR3 with updates including a new wide grille, exterior door handles, lockable boot and a full tool kit. Great fun to drive, its tough box-section chassis featured independent coil and wishbone front suspension, a leaf-sprung 'live' rear axle and disc/drum brakes, (the first British production car to have front disc brakes as standard). Fitted with a 1,991cc four-cylinder OHV unit developing around 104bhp and 117lb/ft of torque, it was reputedly capable of 110mph. A great sales success on both sides of the Atlantic, the model provided a rather more visceral alternative to its MG and Jaguar competition.This very early TR3A was one of the first ‘A’s to roll off the production line in 1957, and was built for the American market, arriving there and initially registered in 1958. It remained overseas until returning to the UK in 2018, ripe for a restoration which it was to receive at the hands of the present owner, a retired race engineer of some standing.  Every nut, bolt, washer and screw has received attention with accuracy and attention to detail being at the forefront of the build. The bare shell was totally stripped and rebuilt as required, retaining as many of the original panels as possible, and sourcing the finest quality parts when required, to achieve a fit and finish that is difficult to criticise in any way. Delve a little deeper and the quality is clear to see from the outstanding Medici Blue paintwork to the fully detailed underside and the superbly trimmed interior.The engine bay is a work of art and houses the fully rebuilt and upgraded 2,138cc straight-four. After the bare block and head had been 'Hot Tanked' to chemically clean them, reassembly began with new 89mm pistons and liners, the con rods were replaced with Max Speed forged items, the crank was reground and balanced along with the flywheel/clutch/front pulley assembly. New parts included a Newman uprated camshaft plus followers, springs, valves, pushrods, rocker shaft and arms, Vernier-type timing sprockets, timing chain, ARP head studs and nuts, water and oil pump, oil filter conversion, rear-main seal conversion, narrow fan belt conversion, stainless steel four-branch exhaust manifold and single silencer system, Hi-torque starter motor and an uprated Aluminium radiator. The head, after some port work to match the TR4A inlet manifold (better flowing than the STD item) and the tubular exhaust manifold, was sent to a local automotive engineering company for skimming and lead-free valve seats to be fitted. The enhanced power output is fed through an uprated all-synchro, overdrive gearbox to the fully rebuilt final drive. The car's full specification is too long to list here but full details are available to interested parties.The quality of the restoration is exceptional in many ways and has to be one of, if not the, the finest example available today. Triumph TR3s come to market on a fairly regular basis, but spectacular examples of this quality do not, and your early inspection is welcomed and encouraged to fully appreciate the lengths that have been taken to produce this outstanding example.Ready to be enjoyed once again and with less than 100 miles covered since completion, a period of 'running-in' is highly recommended to achieve the very best from this ever popular 1950s roadster.SpecificationMake: TRIUMPHModel: TR3AYear: 1957Chassis Number: TS-25546-LRegistration Number: 589 XVRTransmission: ManualEngine Number: TS63047-EDrive Side: Right-hand DriveOdometer Reading: 30532 MilesMake: RHDInterior Colour: Dark Grey VinylClick here for more details and images
