* Britten (Benjamin, 1913-1976). English composer. An important series of 8 Autograph Letters Signed, ‘Ben’, undated except one dated 24 January 1969, all to Ken [The Reverend Kenneth Sherlock], the one dated letter on Red House, Aldeburgh, Suffolk, headed paper, a somewhat philosophical letter about Russia, the Russian people and the human spirit generally and further mentioning a forthcoming tour of Germany and Austria. 2 pages, slightly split along lower fold, oblong 8vo, the others on personalised correspondence cards, two concerning Curlew River, ‘…It was wonderful being able to do Curlew River in your wonderful church… I’m just off to Holland, after having whizzed up north with Rostropovich…’; ‘…It is lovely that Curlew River can be back when(?) it belongs in 1965!’, the next card mentioning The Prodigal Son, ‘… All goes well here now – only a lot of patience is needed! Don’t worry – somehow there will be a Prodigal Son in Orford Church in time!…’; thanking Sherlock for his support, ’…It is always a real joy for us to come and work in Orford Church – not least because of your own unfailing kindness and deep understanding of what we are trying to do…’; ‘Peter and I are just off to USSR via London for a month or so… but Stephen R can in the meantime give you all our proposals for next year’s Festival at Orford…’; ‘… I am here for a week or so (before going off to Helsinki, + to USSR again)…’; ‘What a wonderful lot of flowers – how cheering to be reminded that spring and health will not be far away!

Britten is very warm in tone to Sherlock and, in a number of letters, Britten alludes to his declining health, which continued to deteriorate until his death in 1976. This archive is not included in the Collected Letters, Volume 6 (1966-1976), edited by Philip Reed & Mervyn Cooke) and is therefore apparently unpublished.

Audemars Piguet faced considerable technical challenges maintaining the water resistance of such a thin case, while also introducing the additional correctors in the side needed for the perpetual calendar movement. The challenge required continual development and led to small differences between references.The current lot is a reference 25686PT and was produced in a very limited number of just 233 pieces. As referenced in Audemars Piguet 20th Century Complicated Watches, p.277, of the 233, 85 were made in steel, 70 in yellow gold, 43 in two-tone, 26 in platinum, and 9 in pink gold. The current example, executed in platinum, features a stunning Mother of Pearl dial that really has an exceptional colour and hue evoking an almost cloud-like appearance to the dial. To this day Mother-of-Pearl has remained one of the most consistently used and popular materials for watch dials with manufacturers at all levels incorporating the material into their designs. From full dial single sheets to intricately placed segments completing a luxurious jigsaw - Mother of Pearl is a very effective medium for adding depth to a watch. This example would be a fantastic piece to have in any collection.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: Ω RΩ VAT on imported items at the prevailing rate on Hammer Price and Buyer's Premium.R This lot is subject to import restrictions when shipped to the United States.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
