1971 British Lions | Gerald Davies Rugby Union jersey match-worn by Gerald Davies in New ZealandJersey & Provenance: Label for Umbro (two globes version) and Lillywhites. Bears squad No.14 and British Lions crest with indigo rose to represent England, characteristic of the '71 badge. The personal collection of Sir Gareth Edwards CBE & family.Thomas Gerald Reames Davies CBE DL (b. 1945), the current WRU President, made his international debut in December 1966 v Australia in Cardiff. He was switched from centre to the wing by Welsh coach Clive Rowlands during their ‘69 tour of Australia and New Zealand, from then on, his famous side-step and acceleration led to him dominating that position for Wales for the remainder of his career. Davies was a British Lion in ‘68 and ‘71, one of a raft of Welsh players alongside Barry John, Gareth Edwards and JPR Williams who entered the folklore of both the Lions and Wales. He is perhaps best remembered for his last-gasp score against Scotland in the ‘71 Five Nations, and his three tries for the British Lions against the All Blacks in the same year.Following his retirement, Davies became a respected rugby correspondent for The Times and holds honorary fellowships from the University of Wales Lampeter, Aberystwyth, and Cardiff. Davies also served as the team manager for the 2009 Lions tour to South Africa.British Lions Tour 1971: The 1971 Lions were the first British team to win a major series abroad in the 20th Century and the only time the Lions have won a series in New Zealand. The tour was a huge success for British rugby and as a public relations exercise for the sport in the UK. The Lions succeeded in a tense, often brutal series of matches and have since been regarded as the finest British Lions team to tour, a team which struck a massive blow for Northern Hemisphere rugby.The squad of 13 Welsh, 6 Irish and English and 5 Scottish players were captained by John Dawes who had helped develop London Welsh into one of the most formidable club sides. The coach was Carwyn James, who believed in free-flowing rugby where players could express themselves. James had the players do just that with raw talent throughout; JPR Williams, John Bevan, John Dawes, Barry John, Mike Gibson, and, wearing this jersey - Gerald Davies. There were decision makers and big characters deep into the ‘71 squad, players comfortable with the ball in their hands as well as natural footballers. The tour began inauspiciously with two matches against Australian provinces. The first, against Queensland was but 58 hours away after flying half-way across the world. They lost 15-11. The second was New South Wales with the Lions scraping a 14-12 win. Their chances of glory in All Blacks territory were ridiculed by the Australian press. It was an ominous start.But the Lions needed time to find their feet and shake off their jetlag. They won the next ten matches in New Zealand before the first test. Wins included Waikato, the Maoris, Wellington, and Canterbury.It was the Canterbury match on June 19th, one week before the First Test, which is remembered for the wrong reasons. It was to be a rough-up of the Lions, known as the ‘Battle of Lancaster Park’, the ‘Game of Shame’. It was a violent affair of punch-ups resulting in swollen eyes and broken bones, including a fractured cheekbone to Lion Sandy Carmichael and concussion for Fergus Slattery. John Pullin was felled by a punch from behind and Sir Gareth was floored by a rabbit punch.The Lions tried to play the Carwyn-way and thanks to superior handling they won what was a moral victory. But they would need to finish the tour without Roy McLoughlin and Carmichael in the front-row. Second string props were flown out. In the first test at Dunedin on 26th June, Sir Gareth sustained a leg injury and was replaced by Ray ‘Chico’ Hopkins. The Lions scraped a 9-3 win with two Barry John penalties in the second half. It was not an emphatic victory, but great for moral - the All Blacks could be beaten!In the second test Edwards had recovered and it was more of an open affair. Burgess scored the first try for New Zealand, Gerald Davies wearing this jersey scored a try in reply. Then Sid Going scored from a ruck. In the second half New Zealand were awarded a penalty try, Burgess scored the second of the day and then Ian Kirkpatrick scored a famous solo try. New Zealand were cruising 22-6 but there was a spirited revival from the Lions, and they managed to claw back to 22-12, again through Davies. But the final score was 22-12 to New Zealand and the All Blacks had stopped the Lions run of 15 games without defeat.There were four more Lions’ wins including Hawke’s Bay who put a cynical performance to match the Battle of Lancaster Park, this time Pullin was badly hurt from a punch. But Davies and Barry John tormented the opposition with skill and flair. Davies scoring four tries. The crucial penultimate 3rd test was at Wellington on 31st of July. The Lions needed to win to give them the chance of a series victory. The wind was strong in Wellington, and having won the toss, the Lions opted to use the elements. It was a good decision, with Barry John executing a long drop goal in the 3rd minute to raise the Lion’s tails. Later in the game Davies went over for a try after an All Blacks’ lineout blunder. Barry John scored another and the Lions won 13-3 – they could not now lose the four-match series.An All Blacks victory in the final test at Eden Park, Auckland, on August 14th would draw the series. It was a tense affair, without much flowing running rugby. The All Blacks scored a converted try first, they then kicked a penalty and as half-time drew nearer, the result was looking ominously in their favour. But the Lions rallied, Barry John scored a penalty, Peter Dixon scored a try, Barry John converted. The game was drawn 8-8 at half-time. After the break, Barry John scored another penalty, New Zealand replied with the same and then with 8 minutes to go JPR scored a brilliant drop-goal from 40 metres - the defining moment of the tour. In the dying moments New Zealand struck back with another penalty to draw the match 14-14 but it was not enough to save their series. A series victory for the Lions.The Legacy Of The ’71 Tour: the team won their first series in NZ and would return to Heathrow to thousands of fans as history makers and architects of a monumental step forward for home nations rugby. It was a glorious tour which helped rugby union gain appeal to the British public. They destroyed the aura of invincibility of the All Blacks and they’ll be remembered for the intention to play the Carwyn James-way in utilising their exciting backs.Clem Thomas wrote ‘I am often asked, and indeed I often ask myself, which was the greatest team, 1971 or 1974….it is my opinion that the ‘71 Lions had backs who were without equal in my experience. Never did I see more consummate play from backs, with such unparalleled mastery of the basic skills’.Sir Gareth Recalls: (Gerald is) ‘..admired and remembered for his great attacking play and for scoring some fantastic tries. He was also a tenacious tackler. It didn’t matter how big they were, very few people got past him. When, you had someone like him in your side, you always felt he could create something even in an apparently hopeless situation. It was Clive Rowlands who changed him from a centre to a wing in 1969 and his renowned ability to side-step with such brilliance was a devastating part of his weaponry on the wing. What made him so dangerous to opponents was that when he side-stepped, he hardly changed pace. Indeed, it almost seemed as though he went faster’.

Three metal acrow props

Signed 'J.L.E. Meissonier' bottom left, oil on canvas21 x 25 7/8 in. (53.3 x 65.7cm) ProvenancePrivate Collection, Pennsylvania.NoteThe exacting precision with which Ernest Meissonier executed his figures has drawn comparisons to the work of 17th century Dutch painters with whom he had much in common as a Classicist who embraced the tenets of the French Academy. Meissonier espoused a very traditional view of painting, living and working in ‘The Grand Mansion’ in Poissy from 1846, and toward the end of his life becoming the President of the Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts. While the artist enjoyed considerable success during his lifetime for his Napoleonic and military-themed compositions–he described himself as a history painter–he was also quite accomplished as a genre painter who excelled at depicting 17th and 18th century domestic scenes, as seen in the present work.The relined canvas in overall fine to good condition. With some craquelure throughout. Examination under UV light reveals a heavy layer of old greenish varnish, which makes our inspection difficult. Yet, we notice some restoration (very feathery and delicate) in the upper left corner and along the top outer edge (along the wood timber in the composition, where most of the cracks are). The figures are intact, but we notice some repairs undearth the standing figure (between his legs) and a small repaired indent to the left of the yellow vest. Some more localized inpainting at bottom left and generally speaking along the bottom outer edge up until the stool in the bottom right corner (the restoration appears to follow the cracks and circles around the props, leaving them seemingly untouched). Some more highlights in the background, at upper right and upper center on the tapestry. We notice a horizontal repair underneath the head of the man on the tapestry. See Specialist's pictures for more details.Frame: 27 x 1 3/4 x 2 1/2 in.To request a condition report, or for any additional information, please email Raphael Chatroux at rchatroux@freemansauction.com.

He was artistically trained at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art, Dundee and at the Ecole des Beaux Arts, Paris. Jonathan became a full time painter in 1986, mostly working in watercolour and collage. He is a keen art teacher, regularly running children’s workshops as well as adult night-classes. In 2006, he conducted a collage and painting workshop in Morgan Academy, Dundee for the Racial Equality Commission enabling 2 school pupils to reach the final.

His clever compositions create narratives through the interaction between figures, and the addition of carefully selected props to be interpreted by the viewer. It is a testament to his artistic skill that he can convey strong emotion with only the simplest of brushstrokes to represent facial features.

Mark Gertler (1891-1939)/Still Life/with earthenware vessel and blue ewer/signed and dated July 1922/oil on board, 31.75cm x 40cm/Note:This still life was painted during the artist's stay with Bonamy and Valentine Dobrée in Larrau in the Pyrenees in the summer of 1922. The still life objects, an earthenware pitcher, a blue enamel jug and a stark white tablecloth, though atypical in Gertler's work, which generally re-uses favourite props that can be traced from one painting to the next, are characteristic of rustic French interiors of the period. Another still life with similar earthenware can be dated to this visit. However, the landscape glimpsed through and framed by the window, painted in soft, diagonal strokes is typical of Gertler's landscapes between 1919 and 1920, and the framing device can be found in other contemporaneous still lifes. This work will be included in Sarah MacDougall's catalogue raisonée of Mark Gertler's work and we thank her for her assistance with this catalogue note CONDITION REPORT: The painting has had an amateur varnish, this has gone over onto the inner slip of the frame as well. There is a repair to the frame slip and a few knocks and dents. The overall appearance is good but I think removal of the old varnish might be advisable.

KINJO: A GOLD INLAID COPPER KISERUZUTSU WITH TIGER AND DRAGONBy Ikeda Kinjo, signed Kinjo 琴乘Japan, c. 1860The pipe case of otoshi-zutsu type with subtle curvature, the design finely executed in katakiri and kebori with a tiger resting under towering stalks of leafy bamboo to one side and a dragon amid swirling clouds and crashing waves to the reverse, their eyes inlaid in gold.

Margaret Woodbury Strong (1897-1969) grew up in a prosperous family of collectors. Her interests ranged so widely that by 1960 she had amassed more than 27,000 collectible items and works of art. The vast majority of her collections related in some way to play and as her accumulation grew, Margaret planned a museum to house her collection. It eventually opened to the public in 1982, and grew dramatically over the following decades, expanding its collections, facilities, and resources, now spanning over 285,000 square feet. Today, the Strong National Museum of Play (known as just The Strong Museum or simply The Strong) is the only collections-based museum in the world devoted solely to the study of play.Ikeda Kinjo, born in Tsuruoka, moved to Edo to study metal engraving from Ikkin Funada. He then returned to Tsuruoka and began making props for sword fittings, specializing in Ikkin style katakiri carvings.Both the tiger and dragon have important meanings in Buddhist and Taoist philosophy, together representing the yin and yang, the earth and sky, or the male and female. Furthermore, they represent strength, resilience, and courage.
