Lot 280
A pair of 18th century needlework maps worked by Eliza Seccombe, 1775: one depicting Europe, Africa, Asia and New Holland with 'Northern', 'Eastern', 'Indian' and 'Southern' Oceans, the other of North and South America with 'Pacific or Oriental Ocean' and 'Western or Atlantic Ocean', both titled 'At Mrs Harvey's Marybone (sic) by Eliza Seccombe, 1775' and signed in ink 'E Seccombe' lower corners, framed and glazed, 33x36.5cm.*Notes- 'New Holland' was first applied to the Western Coast of Australia during the Golden Age of Dutch Exploration in 1644 by the Abel Tasman. The territory remained largely unexplored as it was considered too dry and infertile to support colonisation. In 1770 James Cook claimed the Western Coast of New Holland as British Territory and initially renamed it New Wales which was revised to New South Wales and officially recognised with the establishment of a settlement at Sydney in 1788. The term New Holland was often used to describe the unexplored eastern territories which is why the area is marked as 'Conjectural Coasts'. North Asia is also marked as ' Terra Incognita' for unexplored parts. The map of the Americas is interesting for the inclusion of both Hudson Bay and Baffin Bay in the period prior to the discovery of the Northwest Passage in 1850 by the McClure Arctic Expedition whilst searching for the lost Franklin Expedition of 1845.

Cook (James), River Thames and Mercury Bay in New Zealand, Bay of Islands in New Zealand, Tolaga Bay in New Zealand, seventeenth-century engraved map, hand-coloured, London: Strachan and Cadell, 27 x 43cm, framed and glazed, bearing Altea Gallery label to the reverse. Provenance: From Munstead Wood. The contents of the property are being sold by the former owners of the important country house which has now been purchased by the national trust. Munstead Wood is a Grade I listed house and gardens in Godalming Surrey. The garden was created by garden designer Gertrude Jekyll and became very well-known through her designs, and her books and articles in magazines such as Country Life. The Arts and Crafts style house was built for Jekyll and she lived there until 1932, Munstead Wood was designed by the architect Edwin Lutyens to compliment the garden with Jekylls influence on the original design. Munstead Wood was the first, and perhaps therefore the most important, collaboration between Jekyll and Lutyens in garden and house design. These collaborations number around 120, with other well-known examples including Deanery Garden in Berkshire and Hestercombe House in Somerset. Jekyll transformed the site over the years, first meeting Lutyens at Munstead Wood in 1889 when the collaboration began, and she lived there until her death in 1932. Prior to the sale to the National Trust, Munstead Wood was the vendors family home for more than 50 years, the owners over this time were Sir Robert Clark and Lady Clark who were responsible for the house and gardens regeneration to return it to its original concept.
