A lacquered brass four-glass cased electromagnetic balance mantel timepiece Eureka Clock Company Limited, early 20th century The movement with large diameter sprung split bimetallic balance applied with timing weights to circumference and with transverse electromagnetic impulse coil to centre oscillating against a sprung detent contact breaker and cam operating a lever and ratchet shunt for the motionwork, the front with visible ball bearing pivot over regulation adjustment scale inscribed No. 7414, PATENT, No. 14614, 1906 , the 4.25 inch convex cream enamel Arabic numeral dial with steel moon hands and signed EUREKA CLOCK Co. LTD., LONDON to centre within cast gilt brass bezel, the whole supported on a shaped steel plate applied with finials and squat brass supports within the bevel glazed brass case with triangular pediment applied with gilt vase and griffin cast mount to tympanum over fluted frieze and hinged door flanked by channel moulded corner uprights, on substantial stepped skirt base enclosing battery compartment and incorporating squat bracket feet, 38cm (15ins) high. The Eureka mantel timepiece was invented by Timothy Bernard Powers of New York shortly after 1900 and Patented in 1906. It is thought that around 10,000 were made by the Eureka Clock Company, London before their demise in 1914. The design of the balance is such that a constant voltage (of 1.5 volts) is required to ensure consistency in the amplitude of oscillation. Unfortunately early 20th century battery technology struggled to deliver a suitably stable output hence such timepieces acquired a reputation for poor timekeeping. Nowadays, once correctly set-up, good timekeeping can be achieved through use of modern cells which provide a much more consistent voltage output. Provenance: The collection of the late Ronnie Kirkwood and George Dixon.

Yeats: A Catalogue Raisonné of the Oil Paintings, André Deutsch, London, 1992, Vol.II, p.639, catalogue no. 708 A man walks briskly along a river bank pulling a small barge in the water along behind him. The dramatic contrast in scale between him and his passengers suggest that the latter is a toy or that some fantastic scene is before us. Yeats' intricate handling of the paint conveys a breezy day with the trees on the bank blowing in the gentle wind. The bright blues of the sea and river compliment the dark greens and yellow tones of the surrounding vegetation and suggest the warmth of a summer's day. The blue paint of the water has been scrapped back in parts to reveal the white of the canvas underneath. This denotes the reflected light of the sky on the surface of the river, while drawing our attention to the physical construction of the painting. The pink shirt and grey trousers of the ferryman while contrasting in hue with that of its environs are blended into the composition through the way in which the artist has sculpted the form out of paint. Rivers and ferrymen are a major theme in Yeats' work. The ferryman, like the pilot man who guided the ships in and out of port is symbolic of an innate wisdom and a keen understanding of the complexities of the sea and the tide. The title of this work, Against the Stream, indicates the skill of the man as he manoeuvres the boat upstream. The disconcerting discrepancy in scale between the giant male figure and the tiny doll-like forms of the passengers equally evokes a world of make-believe. One of Yeats' great pleasures as a young man was making paper boats and floating them on the River Gara close to his Devon home of that time. The poet John Masefield, a close friend of the artist, often joined in this pursuit. Several of Yeats' paintings of the mid 1940s such as The Launching (1945, Private Collection) and A Beach in Lilliput (1944, Private Collection) refer back to memories of this time. Another work, The Model Ship (1945, Private Collection) depicts a sailor looking at a model yacht sailing in the water below. [1] Rivers are moving forces and as such they represent the unending progress of life and nature. The sense of journeying is keenly expressed in this work through the movement of trees, the water and above all by the striding figure and the boat. The wide spread of the composition takes in the breadth of the river and its opposing bank and thus sets the expedition of the man and the boat within the much greater context of natural forces. In a playful manner Yeats uses the work to pose quite profound questions about the purpose of an individual life set against the bigger forces of the natural world. Dr. Róisín KennedyAugust 20171.
