Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. The insect and spider kingdom includes some of the world's most fascinating creatures, which are extremely important in maintaining the balance of nature. Although some species are destructive to mankind, many others are beneficial. Most insects and spiders provide sustenance for larger creatures, thus perpetuating the life cycle of all the Earth's wildlife. The habitat of insects and spiders includes grasslands, meadows, trees, shrubs, ponds and streams. Many species pollinate flowering plants, thereby ensuring the plant's reproduction. The Dung Beetle and Eastern Hercules Beetle are known as scarabs and help keep soil fertile for cultivation. Spiders like the Black Widow, the Yellow Garden Spider and the Jumping Spider spin webs that capture garden pests. Insects like the Periodical Cicada and the True Katydid produce familiar summer songs, while the Ebony Jewelwing, Lady Beetle and Monarch Butterfly are delicate specimens of nature's sublime beauty.

William H Bartlett (British, 1858-1932)Returning from the Fair, Co.

Having acquired their livestock at local fairs, smallholders, who tenanted land measured in terms of 'a cow's grass', would ferry their cattle to offshore island pastures.1 This perilous task of transporting their purchases across deep treacherous sounds enabled their mainland soil to revive after a hard winter, and while one or two sheep or a young calf might be accommodated in a wooden curragh, or Galway hooker, neither was large enough to take several cattle. These animals had, effectively, to be towed to their new homes, their heads held firmly above the water level as in William Henry Bartlett's Returning from the Fair, Co. Galway. The authenticity of his painting is such that the heave of the long oars breaking the silver-grey waters can almost be felt. Bartlett's first encounter with the west of Ireland came when he accompanied the American painter, Howard Helmick, probably in the summer of 1878.2 So captivated was he, that after spending a winter in Munich, a further session at the atelier Julian, a season at Grez-sur-Loing, and visits to Venice and St Ives, Bartlett returned to Connemara around 1886 to paint The Last Brief Voyage (sold in these rooms, 10 July 2013, lot 115) for the Royal Academy of the following year. This sombre subject, based on an actual burial, sat within an almost lifelong commitment to the hard life endured by peasant farmers of the west. Attending the local fairs where sheep and cattle were exchanged, and witnessing vigils at wayside shrines, 'marked a mile-stone in my artistic life' he later wrote.3Arriving in Roundstone in county Galway, with its majestic backdrop of the Twelve Bens, he recalled that 'my first sight of the beaches nearby made an unforgettable impression'.4 He was instantly charmed by the 'luminous opalescent grey sky' and the 'sea of the tenderest translucent green' – all effects that are seen in the present work.5 Some critics who reviewed the painting when it appeared in the Grosvenor Gallery in 1888, thought this must have been a scene in Scotland, but the light of Connemara was unmistakable. It was left to The Graphic to point out that the occupants were Irish and that the picture was 'firmly painted and effective'. This was translated as 'dash and vigour' in The Daily Telegraph, while The Athenaeum found this 'a capital subject', the treatment of the sea being 'somewhat rough' and 'the designing of the figures...excellent'.The mistaken identity of people and place is, however, not insignificant. So pervasive was the imagery associated with the Irishman and his domain, that the rugged beauties of the Connemara went largely unrecognized. Faced in a prestigious exhibition, surrounded by cognoscenti and London's bourgeoisie, most Grosvenor Gallery visitors would only have the sketchiest idea of life in the estuary at Roundstone or on Galway's offshore islands. The heroism of Synge's Aran Islanders, Yeats's Man from Aranmore, 1905, and Orpen's Nude Pattern, The Holy Well, 1916 (both National Gallery of Ireland) was yet to come. Bartlett noted how superstition led to suspicion when he tried to find models or observe scenes like these. And were it not for the 'entrancing beauty' of the 'strands of pearly white sand' and 'exquisitely delicate green of the sea combined with the lovely blue of the Connemara mountains', he may have returned permanently to the crowded Venetian calli or the val-de-Seine and been less of a painter. Indeed, such was the significance of the present imagery that he looked for it elsewhere in works such as A Breezy Crossing, 1983 (Cartwright Hall, Bradford City Art Galleries and Museums). Crossing the Seine at Caudebec with your flock was however an adventure of different order and while similar scenes could be witnessed in Donegal when Bartlett went there in the early years of the new century, Returning from the Fair, Co Galway, was the classic canvas from which others derived. 1WH Bartlett, 'From and Island in the West', The Art Journal, 1908, p. 258.2The contrast between Helmick's more traditional Wilkie-esque depictions of Irish life and Bartlett's modern, heroic men and women of the west is noteworthy.3William Henry Bartlett, Impressions and Adventures of an Artist, n.d.

The following year she fled to France to avoid arrest, and although Annie Kenney filled her shoes in London, the newspaper's circulation of about 17,000 copies at its peak never matched that of its predecessor Votes for Women. This was partly due to the war, but also to governmental suppression of the newspaper and the arrests of some of the publishers and printers.The issue for 2 May 1913 features the single word 'Raided!!' in the otherwise blank cover space.

AUSTEN (JANE)Autograph letter signed ('Yours affec.ey/ J. Austen') to 'My Dear Anna [Lefroy]', informing her niece that 'Your Grandmama is very much obliged to you for the turkey, but cannot help grieving that you should not keep it for yourselves. Such High-mindedness is almost more than she can bear. She will be very glad of better weather that she may see you again, & so we shall all', one page, written in brown ink on a bifolium watermarked [Ga]ter [18]15, small stain in top right corner, folded and addressed on reverse to 'Mrs B. Lefroy/ Wyards' (panel above cut away), contained in envelope inscribed 'Autograph of Jane Austen' and with blue Lefroy family crest incorporating motto 'Mutare sperno' stamped on flap, 24mo (111 x 94mm.) [Chawton], Thursday [December? 1816]Footnotes:'YOUR GRANDMAMA IS VERY MUCH OBLIGED TO YOU FOR THE TURKEY': A REDISCOVERED JANE AUSTEN LETTER WRITTEN AT THE TIME OF HER LAST CHRISTMAS.Anna Austen Lefroy (Jane Anna Elizabeth Austen, 1793-1872), the author's niece, was the daughter of Jane's brother James, and his first wife Anne Mathew. As a child she was very close to her aunt, and after her mother's death she stayed with Jane for two years at Steventon, before her father remarried. Anna married Benjamin Lefroy in 1814 and the following August the couple moved to Wyards, a farmhouse a mile from Chawton. Anna and Jane were frequent correspondents throughout the author's life and the letters they exchanged are often very revealing. Anna also became an important contributor to the Austen life story through the so-called Lefroy MS.Despite the support and encouragement of her aunt, Anna's own literary ambitions remained largely frustrated. But she did contribute to a continuation of an early Austen story called Evelyn, as well as the author's unfinished Sanditon, the manuscript of which she inherited. Although she never managed to complete the novel she was writing, the progress of which she shared with her aunt, Anna did publish two children's books, The Winter's Tale: To Which is Added Little Bertram's Dream (1841) and Springtide (1842). An anonymous story called Mary Hamilton, written by 'A Niece of the late Miss Austen' and published in a periodical in 1834, has also been attributed to her (see https://jasna.org/persuasions/printed/number19/sabor-james-cavan.pdf).'Grandmama', the grateful recipient of the turkey, is Jane's mother and Anna's grandmother, Cassandra Austen (1739-1827), who was living at Chawton with her daughters and was to survive Jane by some ten years despite her own ill health. The year before Jane had spent Christmas sending out presentation copies of Emma, but by the autumn of 1816 she was visibly unwell with what is now thought to have been Addison's Disease. Although she made little of her illness to her friends, and sacrificed her own needs for comfort to those of her mother, she did talk to her sister Cassandra of her backaches, nausea and tiredness. Few letters from that period are known (or were perhaps written), but on December 16, her birthday, she wrote at length to her brother Edward, barely mentioning her own situation. Apart from the present letter, only a New Year note survives from that Christmas of 1816, which was to be Jane's last. In January 1817 she recovered sufficiently to start work on Sanditon, but by the end of March she had stopped writing, was moved to Winchester in May, and on 18 July she died.Our letter is on paper watermarked [Ga]ter [18]15, from the Hampshire firm of John and William Gater, Up Mills, West End, South Stoneham. The Morgan Library has several Jane Austen letters on Gater's paper, one to Cassandra from the same period, 8 January 1817, the remainder from 1808-1809. This, along with the fact that Anna Lefroy moved to Wyards in 1815 and that Jane was in London rather than Chawton that December, helps to confirm that our letter was written the following Christmas.The text of the letter was first published by R.W. Chapman in Jane Austen's Letters to her Cassandra and Others, OUP, 1932 & 1952 (no. 185), and was taken from a copy in the possession of Miss Mary Isabella Lefroy, Anna's grand-daughter, who donated the manuscript of Sanditon to King's College, Cambridge. Chapman describes the version he saw thus: 'Copy by Anna Lefroy (on paper with watermark dated 1854), who adds: 'This note was written the winter of 1816 & the original is in the possession of W. Chambers Lefroy the Grandson of the Receiver''.Dierdre Le Faye (Jane Austen's Letters, OUP, 2011, no. 147(C) and note on p.461) still found the 'original MS untraced', and records the copy and the comment as being by Anna's daughter Fanny-Caroline Lefroy, made in her mother's volume of family history notes, the Lefroy MS. It was also transcribed in Fanny-Caroline Lefroy's own family history manuscript. The original autograph letter offered here was rediscovered last year in a box containing papers of a descendant of the Lefroy family.Provenance: Anna Lefroy; and thence by decent to the present owner.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

NEWTON (ISAAC)Opticks: or, a Treatise of the Reflections, Refractions, Inflections and Colours of Light. The Third Edition, Corrected, JOHN DAVIES' COPY, ANNOTATED AND WITH ADDITIONAL MANUSCRIPT MEMOIR BOUND IN, 12 folding engraved plates (one slightly shaved touching neatline, 2 with minor archival repair to fore-edge), 13 full-page manuscript notes before title, approximately 20 side-notes or minor annotations, modern blindstamped calf antique, red gilt morocco spine label [Babson 135], 8vo, William and John Innys, 1721Footnotes:The enlarged third, and last lifetime, edition of Newton's Opticks, which 'did for light what his Principia had done for gravitation, namely, placed it on a scientific basis' (Babson, quoting Prof. E.W. Brown of Yale University), inscribed, annotated, and with inserted manuscript material by John Davies (1679-1732). Educated at the Charterhouse School, and then Queens' College, Cambridge, for which he was made President in 1717, and vice-chancellor in 1726. It seems probable that Davies would have crossed paths with Newton, as 'the world of scientific learning... did not forget that a man of superlative quality lived and worked in Cambridge' (ODNB) as his reputation grew.Davies was a close friend of the classical scholar Richard Bentley, and an editor of the works of Cicero, Caesar, Lactantius, Minucius Felix, and Maximus of Tyre. He has signed and dated this volume ('I. Davies / 1725') in a practised print hand, and mingled that hand with a fine neat italic elsewhere (for comparison, see British Library MS Stowe 750, fol. 252), in particular for the biographical material. His annotations in Opticks show a close reading of the text, referencing in his side-notes to works by John Locke (Concerning Human Understanding), George Cheyne (An Essay on Health, 1724), John Ray, and the Dutch mathematician Willem Jacob 's Gravesande. Beneath his signature, Davies writes a preliminary comment concerning Newton's notes on colours, sunlight and refractions (citing his chapter on 'Homogeneal light', pp.106-108). Evidence of Davies' reading beyond the text is indicated with long quotation from Swift's Proposal for Correcting the English Tongue (1712), and a couplet from Roscommon's translation of Horace ('Such secrets are not easily found out; But, once discovered, leaves no room for doubt'), and, more obviously related to Newton, on the rear pastedown a two-line 'Epitaph' on Newton copied from a periodical of 1731, and two printed memorial clippings.Of particular interest is Davies's twelve-page manuscript memoir of Newton bound in at the front. This is based very closely on two printed sources, Bernard Le Bovier de Fontenelle's Éloge de Newton (in its English translation of 1728), and the biographical preface to Henry Pemberton's View of Sir Isaac Newton's Philosophy (1728). But Davies revises, corrects, rearranges, and selects from the former, eliminating almost everything regarding the Principia, and adds additional information (e.g., the dates of Newton's Cambridge degrees, the name of Newton's mother – not 'Anne' Ayscough but 'Hannah'). Davies also includes a reference, seemingly absent from both Fontenelle and Pemberton's accounts, to the fact that 'Sr. Isaac in one of his private letters, was of Opinion that the Frame of Nature may be nothing but various Contexture of aetherial Spirits or Vapours condens'd as it were by precipitation...'. This famous speculation is actually not found in a 'private letter', but in Newton's Hypothesis Explaining the Properties of Light discoursed of in my several Papers, as sent to Royal Society, in January 1675/6, and first printed by the Society in December 1675, an indication that Davies was engaging with Newton's writings beyond the more commonly available sources.For a recently-discovered manuscript of another Cambridge man close to Newton, see the notebook of his amanuensis John Wickins sold in these rooms on 31 March 2021.Provenance: John Davies (1679-1732), ownership inscription (dated 1725), notes and annotations; Robert Aytoun, ownership inscription (dated 1820) at inner margin of title-page.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: •• Zero rated for VAT, no VAT will be added to the Hammer Price or the Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
