(183 x 180 x 51cm.); together with a framed set of four black and white photographs of the yacht and some of her interiors (3)Footnote: An archetypal product of the golden era which spawned her, Iela was originally named Rannoch when she was designed for Mr T.V. Smith of London by Cox & King in 1902. Built at Leith by Ramage & Ferguson, she was registered at 546 tons Thames and measured 184ft in length overall, with a 26-foot beam. Powered by her builders’ own 3-cylinder engine, she was rated 100A1 by Lloyd’s Register and had the sleek lines which typified her breed. By 1912, she had passed into the ownership of Mr Gerard Craig Sellar of Cromwell Road, London but, at the end of that year, he put her up for sale and she was purchased by H.M. King Victor Emmanuel III of Italy, and thereafter kept in Naples. He already owned a smaller steam yacht, also named Iela (329 tons) and built in 1891, and initially kept both for his personal use until the Italian state acquired an official yacht, Savoia II (ex-Citta di Palermo) in 1925. Even though the King used her a great deal, he also made considerable use of his two personal yachts throughout his reign, the older Iela having been disposed of before the commissioning of Savoia II. In 1939 the King sold his beloved Iela to Mario Pesce, sadly she was bombed and sunk by Allied aircraft on September 9th, 1943 at Secche della Meloria, a tiny island off Livorno.Condition report: Fine overall condition throughout.
