E no fim o uso, & fabrica | da balhestilha, & quadrante gyome- | trico, com hum tratado dos | Relogios.- Lisboa: Iorge Rodriguez, 1603.- [10], 284 [i. e. 283], [1] f.: il.; 19 cm.- E., Multidisciplinary treatise authored by an illustrious Torrejano (1568-1630) who was Master of Mathematics, Cosmography and Navigation and Chief Cosmographer of the Kingdom. The edition, apparently the only one, was printed at the expense of Pero Ramires and presents very interesting typographic aspects, namely, dozens of xilograph engravings, representing, with some crudeness, astronomical and astrological themes. It is worth noting, however, a very curious mobile scheme that in some copies appears mounted on the engraving on the verso of folio P5 (with two pieces rotating on the engraving, around an axis, representing the model of an instrument to determine the birth of signs), and which is currently to be assembled, with the engravings of the two pieces printed on the front of the last folio of the work (folio Oo8r, with blank verso). According to the author himself: «As pessoas curiosas mandarão fazer este instrumento de metal que sairá mais certo do que em papel». The edition presents some layout errors, namely: p. 24 duplicated (fólios C8 and D1); jumping from p. 101 to p. 103 (folios O2 and O3); jumping from p. 221 to p. 223 (folios Ff5 and Ff6); some changed numbers. The copy, slightly cropped (carminated and waxed edges) with the preliminary pages poorly bound, retains the rare errata sheet (before the f. ¶¶) that is missing in most known copies. Title page a little dusty, with some minor restorations on the verso (lower outer corner reconstituted, with damage to the xilograph frame); small wormhole (poorly) repaired, on the lower margin of sheets Bb4 to Ee5 (25 f.); occasional light (tidal) stains. Otherwise, a complete, solid and generally clean copy. Ex-libris by Victor d’Avila Perez (lot nº 2892 from the auction held in 1940). Binding from the 19th century, fully flecked sheepskin, with the spine profusely gold tooling (small superficial damage to the label). Inocêncio V, p. 427 (copies are rare). Nepomuceno, 712. Ávila Perez, 2892. Auvermann, 155. Arouca, F 107 (does not mention the last unnumbered sheet, with the two pieces engraved).
"Le Voyageur", bronze sculpture, French, signed E MEISSONIER - probably Jean Louis Ernest Meissonnier (1815-1891), casting mark SIOT-PARIS, numbered 36., Dim. - 47 x 61 x 20 cmNotes:Ernest Meissonnier (1815-1891) was a prominent French painter who was part of the so-called Academic Movement, having achieved his reputation with paintings of military themes and genre scenes. His attention to detail and pursuit of realism allowed him to gain recognition from his peers during his lifetime, and in 1890 he was elected president of the re-founded Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts de France.Meissonnier's sculptor skills were only recognised after his death, since his sculptural work was produced as a preparatory element to support his paintings, in which the artist modelled the position of the figures he intended to paint, thus rehearsing the interplay of light and shadow that the volumes and shapes produced. For this reason, the works left by Meissonnier consisted essentially of wax models, which were only cast in bronze after his death.The sculpture “Le Voyageur” is one of Meissonnier’s most celebrated bronzes, where the absent protagonist of the composition is the wind, which forces the knight and his mount to lean forward to face the weather, without losing their determination to continue on their way. The identity of the knight wearing the cape and bicornuate remains uncertain, but it could be Marshal Ney or Napoleon himself.The present sculpture, signed E Meissonnier, must have been cast around 1895 based on a wax, fabric and leather model created by Meissonnier, currently kept at the Musée d’Orsay in Paris https://www.musee-orsay.fr/fr/oeuvres/le-voyageur-15446 consulted on 27-11-2024 at 16:39.As mentioned in https://www.galerienicolasbourriaud.com/produit/le-voyageur-dit-aussi-voyageur-dans-le-vent-marechal-ney-ou-encore-officier-dans-la-tourmente/ an edition of 50 copies was planned, of which probably only 45 would be cast, with the present copy being number 36.

The present watch displays the rare "Cherry Logo" dial -referring to the light red "Daytona" inscription-, becoming the very first model to showcase this particular detail until the "Big Red" variants of the 6263 and 6265 (excluding of course Newman dials). The presence of its original warranty stamped by English retailer "Michael Lewis & Son", as well as the rarely seen before "Made in England" Oyster bracelet, add another layer of collectibility to the piece.A similar specimen, featuring the case serial number only 6 digits apart from this specific watch, but without the original set of accessories, has been sold in 2019 at Phillips "Game Changers" auction for more than USD 105,000.
