(Napoli 1856 - 1936)Cm 32x19,5 | In 12.60x7.68Oil on panelVincenzo Caprile studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Naples with Domenico Morelli and Gabriele Smargiassi. A painter of Impressionist imprint, he was linked to the Resìna School, and devoted himself to the depiction of landscape scenes and popular characters. His painting technique denotes great freshness of stroke, bringing to mind influences of Filippo Palizzi, and resulted in his excellent commercial success. He lived for long periods in Venice, alternating paintings of the Lagoon with Neapolitan landscapes. With other Neapolitan painters (Luca Postiglione, Pietro Scoppetta, Vincenzo Volpe, Edoardo Matania, Attilio Pratella, Giuseppe Alberto Cocco, Giuseppe Casciaro, Giuseppe Chiarolanza, Gaetano Esposito, Vincenzo Migliaro, and Vincenzo Irolli) he was called upon to decorate the rooms of the Caffè Gambrinus in Naples. He died in Naples in 1936.

Oswald Achenbach (1827 Düsseldorf - 1905 ebenda)Fischer vor der Bucht von Neapel, Öl auf Leinwand, 89 cm x 135 cm, signiert, 1880 datiert, doubliert, restauriert, retuschiert, leicht craqueliertOswald Achenbach galt gemeinsam mit seinem Bruder Andreas Achenbach als das "A und O" der Landschaftsmalerei des 19. Jahrhunderts. Als Künstler wird er der sogenannten Düsseldorfer Malerschule zugeschrieben. Diese bezeichnet die damalige Zusammensetzung verschiedener Maler, die um die Mitte des 19./Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts an der Königlich-Preußischen Kunstakademie - heute weltbekannt als Düsseldorfer Kunstakademie - studierten, lehrten und in diesem Umfeld gewirkt haben. Bereits in den 1850er Jahren reiste Achenbach das erste Mal nach Italien. Nach seiner Rückkehr nach Düsseldorf war er bereits über die Grenzen Deutschlands bekannt. 1863 wurde ihm die Ehre zuteil, als Professor für Landschaftsmalerei an die Kunstakademie berufen zu werden. Dies bedeutete neben seiner Heirat von Julie Arnz, der Tochter des Verlegers Heinrich Arnz, einen gesellschaftlichen Aufstieg. 1872 legte er sein Amt jedoch bereits nieder, um nicht in seiner eigenen künstlerischen Entfaltung eingeschränkt zu sein, wozu selbstverständlich auch das Reisen gehörte. Das Gemälde "Die Fischer vor der Bucht von Neapel" ist auf 1880 datiert, eben in die Zeit, in der Oswald Achenbach mit seinem Schwager, Albert Arnz, nach Italien reiste. Durch lasierenden Farbauftrag ist dem Künstler das Einfangen einer wunderbaren Atmosphäre am neapolitanischen Golf gelungen. Vermutlich wurde der Blick zum Vesuv von einem der Fischerdörfer zwischen Neapel und Amalfi gewählt, die entlang des Ufers liegen. Die Szenerie zeigt die Freiheit der Kinder, die in den Wellen des Meeres spielen, ebenso wie die tief verwurzelte Religiosität Italiens, während der Segnung eines Priesters am Ufer. Stimmungsvolle Landschaften durch eine effektvolle, die Atmosphäre steigernde, Behandlung von Licht und Farbe machen sein Oeuvre aus. Heute sind die Ölgemälde Achenbachs in Museen zu sehen, dazu gehört sowohl die Alte Nationalgalerie in Berlin oder die Eremitage in St. Petersburg.Oswald Achenbach (1827 Düsseldorf - 1905 ibid.)Fishermen in front of the Bay of Naples, oil on canvas, 89 cm x 135 cm, signed, 1880 dated doubled, restored, retouched, slightly craquelureOswald Achenbach, together with his brother Andreas Achenbach, was considered the ''A and O'' of 19th century landscape painting. As an artist he is ascribed to the Düsseldorf School of Painting. This refers to the composition at that time of various painters who studied, taught and worked in this environment at the Royal Prussian Academy of Art - today world-famous as the Düsseldorf Academy of Art - around the middle of the 19th/beginning of the 20th century. Achenbach travelled to Italy for the first time as early as the 1850s. After his return to Düsseldorf, he was already known beyond the borders of Germany. In 1863 he was honoured to be appointed as professor of landscape painting at the Academy of Arts. This, along with his marriage to Julie Arnz, the daughter of the publisher Heinrich Arnz, meant social advancement. In 1872, he already resigned from his post so as not to be restricted in his own artistic development, which of course included travelling. The painting ''Fishermen in front of the Bay of Naples'' is dated 1880, precisely the time when Oswald Achenbach travelled to Italy with his brother-in-law, Albert Arnz. The artist succeeded in capturing the wonderful atmosphere of the Neapolitan Gulf through the glazed application of paint. Presumably the view of the Vesuvius was chosen from one of the fishing villages between Naples and Amalfi, which lie along the shore. The scenery shows the freedom of children playing in the waves of the sea, as well as the deep-rooted religiosity of Italy, during the blessing of a priest on the shore. Atmospheric landscapes through an effective, atmosphere-enhancing treatment of light and colour make up his oeuvre. Today, Achenbach's oil paintings can be seen in museums, including the Alte Nationalgalerie in Berlin and the Hermitage in St. Petersburg.

Robertsons - Lot to include advertising / promotional wares to include three preserve spoons, a small jug (11.5 cm height) and a set of 24 badges contained in presentation box.Note: These items are listed on the basis they are illustrative of a bygone culture in which there were different social norms. We understand the potential controversy surrounding this type of item but believe that providing transparent information about historical context fosters greater understanding of our complex cultural history. Originally handmade by mothers in Africa for their children from old fabric and cloth, the golly doll was adopted as the mascot and trademark for the Robertson's confectionery brand around 1910 after the company's founder John Robertson visited the US and noticed children playing with them. Robertson's Gollies have been collected by people across the UK and around the world for generations but garnered a contentious image in the 1980s because of links to racism. The trademark was removed from Robertson's branding in 2001.

FA Cup medal from 1877, 'Football Association Challenge Cup Wanderers 1877'. 2.5 cm diameter. Wanderers Football Club was an English association football club. It was founded as "Forest Football Club" in 1859 in Leytonstone. In 1864, it changed its name to "Wanderers", a reference to it never having a home stadium, instead playing at various locations in London and the surrounding area. Comprising mainly former pupils of the leading English public schools, Wanderers was one of the dominant teams in the early years of organised football and won the inaugural Football Association Challenge Cup (now known as the FA Cup) in 1872. The club won the competition five times in total, including three in succession from 187678, a feat which has been repeated only once. The 1877 FA Cup final was a football match between Wanderers and Oxford University on 24 March 1877 at Kennington Oval in London. It was the sixth final of the world's oldest football competition, the Football Association Challenge Cup (known in the modern era as the FA Cup). Wanderers were the reigning cup-holders and had won the competition three times in total. Wanderers won the match 2-1.
