A FINE 1:64 SCALE MODEL OF THE 50-GUN SHIP H.M.S. ISIS [1774] modelled from NMM plans by P. Puttock, in boxwood, pear and sycamore, with framed 30in. hull planked and pinned with bamboo trenails, ebony main wale, hinged gun ports, finely carved figurehead of Isis, glazed stern and quarter galleries, partially planked and pinned decks with fittings including metal anchors with bound wooden stocks. stovepipe, belfry, well deck with two fitted boats over, gratings, shot racks with shot, hammock racks, companionways, helm, deck light, cannon in rigged carriages with wooden trucks, bound masts with yards and extended s'tun'sl booms, standing and running rigging with blocks and tackle, mounted on brass cradle supports to wooden display base with brass nameplate within a glazed case, overall measurements -- 37 x 54½ x 27in. (94 x 138.5 x 68.5cm.); together with July and August 2014 issues of 'Model Engineer' magazine describing research and construction. Provenance: Gold Medal and Earl of Mountbatten Trophy, Model Engineer Exhibition, 2013.Footnote: H.M.S. Isis was one of the four ‘Portland’ class fourth rates designed by John Williams and built by John Henniker & Co. at Chatham. Laid down in December 1772, launched on 19th November 1774 and completed in February 1776, she was measured at 1,050 tons and was 146ft in length with a 120ft beam. Principally armed with 22-24pdrs. on her lower deck and 22-12pdrs. on her upper deck, her total armament of 50-guns made her a formidable addition to the fleet when she sailed for North American waters under Captain Charles Douglas in March 1776. Her career was both long and immensely varied, and she performed valiantly across the globe. After assisting at the Relief of Quebec in May 1776, she sailed south and saw considerable action off the eastern seaboard and then in the West Indies before returning home for repairs and coppering in 1780. Recommissioned late in 1780 for a brief spell in the Channel, she sailed for India in March 1781 where, once again, she saw extensive action in Admiral Hughes’ squadron at the battles of Sadras, Providien, Negapatam, Trincomalee and Cuddalore. Having sailed home late in 1783, she was laid up and not recommissioned until 1794 which year began her next lengthy period of activity in the North Sea, including participation in the two major fleet actions of Camperdown (1797) and Copenhagen (1801). Refitted in mid-1802, she returned to North American waters in 1803 and remained there until 1808 when she was ordered home. After a final short spell in the North Sea in 1809, it was decided she was no longer seaworthy and she was decommissioned prior to being broken up at Deptford in September 1810 after what had been an exceptionally full service life for a frigate of that era.
1900-1700 BC. A clay tablet containing a forty-one line extract from a Royal hymn, which claims to be written by En?edu'anna, a daughter of the great king Sargon of Akkad; accompanied by a copy of a typed and signed scholarly note by the late W.G. Lambert, Professor of Assyriology at the University of Birmingham, 1970-1993, which states: 'Clay Tablet, 102 x 55 mm., with Section of Sumerian Royal Hymn. This tablet is joined from two pieces with a little loss of text at the break and also due to other damage. However, of the 41 lines of cuneiform script which it contains, the majority are complete and legible. The tablet has a 40-line extract from a hymn which claims to be written by En?edu'anna, a daughter of the great king Sargon of Akkad (c. 2235-2279 B.C."). The total composition consists of 153 lines, and this tablet gives lines 40-79. This tablet is Old Babylonian, c. 1900-1700 B,C., and after the extract has a single line giving a date, but only the day of the month remains. En?edu'anna is claimed as author of quite a few Sumerian texts which survive, and though it is always possible that she employed professional scribes to compose the texts, the very personal matter in some of them does give the impression that they do in fact reflect her thoughts. This hymn is usually known today, as it was in the ancient world by the first phrase, Nin-me-sharra, 'Lady of all the cosmic regulations.' It is in fact is (sic) praise of the goddess Inanna. En?edu'anna was appointed by her father to be high priestess of Nanna, moon-god of Ur, and she held that post for a long time, until the reign of her nephew Nar?m-Sîn, but in a rebellion against Nar?m-Sîn Ur was led by a man Lugal-anne, and according to this hymn he deposed En?edu'anna from her office, which is not surprising. Translation [Lady] who makes glad the [reins], lady [who makes rejoice] the heart, Whose anger is not appeased, the daughter of [Sîn,] the great one, Lady who excels over the land, who has [refused] you worship? In the mountain where you worship is withheld, grain is taboo, Its (the mountain's) great gate you have turned to ashes. Its rivers bear blood for you: its people have nothing to drink. It leads to you its army captive, Its troops break up for you of their own accord. Its strong young men [go before you] of their own accord. A storm has taken over[the city's] dancing, The men and domestic animals are driven before you as captives. Over the city of which it was not said, 'The land is yours,' Of which it was not spoken, 'It belongs to the father who begat you,' You have uttered your holy command, [have turned it back from your way], [Have caused] your foot [to be removed] from its animal pens. Its women [do not speak] pleasantly with their husbands, By night they do not confer [in love], [They do not reveal] the holy things of their bodies. Aggressive wild cow, [daughter of Sîn the great one], Lady superior to An, [who has refused your worship?] One of the right cosmic regulations, great lady [of ladies,] Who came forth from the holy womb, [superior to] the mother[who bore you], Extremely wise one, lady of the lands, Life of the abundant peoples, let me [chant] your holy song! Faithful deity, fitted for the cosmic regulations, It is magnificent to speak of you with power! Merciful, truly pure of heart, let me speak of your cosmic regulations. I enter my holy sanctum, I, high priestess, I En?edu'anna, I carry the basket, I sing the hymn, But now [I am put] in the retreat and have to live thus. The light is extinguished, the day is darkened, Shadows come near, the storm covers (everything"). My honeyed mouth speaks confusion, My pleasant disposition has turned to dust. Sîn, what is this Lugal-anne to me? Speak to An that An may release me, You must [say] to An, 'Now!' [that An may release me.] [This woman will despoil the manhood of Lugal]-anne. [Mountain and flood lie at her] feet. [That woman is] exalted, [she will make the city abandon him.] [Month ....], 18th day, [year .....] This is an important new addition to the textual history of this fascinating personal hymn said to have been written by the king's own daughter.' 168 grams, 10.1cm (4"). Ex central London gallery; acquired 2000 from a UK dealer; acquired by them from an Oxford academic, catalogue number c/1178; examined by the late Professor Wilfrid George Lambert FBA (1926-2011), historian, archaeologist, and specialist in Assyriology and Near Eastern archaeology, in the late 1980s and early 1990s; and accompanied a copy of a typed and unsigned two page scholarly note and translation by the Professor; this lot has been checked against the Interpol Database of stolen works of art and is accompanied by AIAD certificate number no.10254-166488. [No Reserve] Fair condition, repaired. Excessively rare.
2nd-6th century AD. An important copper funerary mask representing a Moche dignitary; he wears a stylised octopus headdress with a central owl-head in high-relief, ornamental collar around his neck, discoid ear spools with owl-head bosses in high-relief; hammer and repoussé technique; light green-black patina; Lambayeque Valley, circa 200-500 AD. See Newton, D. et al., The Pacific Islands, Africa, and the Americas, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, 1987; cf. The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Moche mask, accession no. 1979.206.1279, for similar example. 176 grams, 19.5cm (7 3/4"). Ex Martin Schloderer, Mechtersheim, Germany; previously in the collection of T.J. Die, Texas, USA; acquired from a Texas based dealer in 2007; previously in a USA private collection; formerly acquired in the 1950s. Funerary masks like this one were only worn by high status individuals such as kings and religious figures. Moche was a powerful and influential state. Repoussé is a metalworking technique in which a malleable metal is shaped and decorated by hammering from the reverse side to create a raised design on the front. No metal is lost in the process, although the process is relatively slow, with the end result being one continuous surface of sheet metal of essentially uniform thickness. Any direct contact with the tools used in the process usually remains visible. Fine condition.
3rd century AD. A rectangular lead panel fragment of a child's sarcophagus with ropework border to the upper edge and fluted column to the left edge; raised religious imagery including a central mask of Dionysus flanked by vineleaves and S-curled dolphins in profile, facing bearded mask of Silenus above and willow leaf below; mounted on a custom-made wooden stand. See McCann, A.M., Roman Sarcophagi in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. New York: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, 1978; M. Myth, Meaning, and Memory on Roman Sarcophagi, Berkeley: University of California Press, 1995. 3.2 kg total, 26cm including stand (10 1/4"). From the private collection of Antony John Scammell (1937-2019); acquired from Phoenician Holyland Antiquities, New York, USA, in 2015; accompanied by the original certificate of authenticity and import receipt. The quality of the work shows that it belongs to a sarcophagus of remarkable quality, probably of a wealthy family's child. The figures stand out in low relief, but emerge thanks to effects of contrasts of light and shade. Antony John Scammell (1937-2019) was born, and lived his entire life, in the city of Bristol, England. Already from an early age he was enthralled by history and the heroes that it created. While serving overseas with the British Army, Antony began collecting coins and banknotes and this led to collecting a variety of different items throughout his life. From the early 1960s onward, Antony invested in acquiring ancient artefacts. Antony's vast collections started with Egyptian antiquities, but soon branched into Greek and Roman civilisations. The Roman civilisation fascinated him most and, when family commitments allowed, archaeological digs were coordinated in the west of England. These digs uncovered numerous artefacts, many of which were donated to local museums. In retirement, the collecting continued apace, branching into UK coins, British Empire banknotes and fossils. Fine condition.
10th-12th century AD. A silver neck-ring with round-section shank of coiled facetted rods, each end forged to a square-section flange flaring to a scrolled finial. See Hårdh, B., Silver in the Viking Age. A Regional-Economic Study, Acta Archaeologica Lundensia no.25, Stockholm, 1996, chapter 4. 76 grams, 13cm (5"). Ex Dutch art market; formerly in the Van de Berg collection, 1980s-2000s. The scrolled flange finials are not typical of Viking period Scandinavian finds and may reflect an origin in the southern Baltic region or further south along the River Volga. The ring is light for a Scandinavian example, although finds weighing between 50 and 100 grams are common in southern Scandinavia and in the Slavonic regions bordering the Baltic (i.e. modern western Poland"). In Finland and elsewhere in the eastern Baltic, silver neck rings were often coiled tightly beyond usable dimensions for a collar and then used as a form of currency in tribute payments and, to a limited degree, in commercial transactions. [No Reserve] Very fine condition.
1st century AD. A marble head of a boy with neutral expression and thick eyelids, the hairstyle typical of the Julio-Claudian period; head with realistic hairstyle, with the hair divided into two strands branching off in the middle of the forehead; still with Hellenistic traits, it is however solidly Roman and compares with portraits of children of the Julio-Claudian age; mounted on a custom-made stand.

Property of an English gentleman; formerly in the private collection of A L, acquired London 1996; accompanied by an archaeological expertise written by Dr. Raffaele D’Amato, and this lot has been checked against the Interpol Database of stolen works of art and is accompanied by AIAD certificate number no.10135-136709. This head represents a young man with delicate features and an absorbed expression; the contours of the face, the soft surface, modulated in delicate passages of light and shadow emphasises the bony structure of the face, concentrating all the expressive intensity on the eyes and on the softly ajar fleshy mouth. The hair, composed of short, thick and wavy locks, comes off the forehead and temples, highlighting the face. The piece is finely executed, although it betrays the work of a possible provincial workshop. Fine condition. An impressive Julio-Claudian head.
