James VI of Scotland (later James I & VI of Scotland, England & Ireland) Letter signed from James VI to the Earl Marischal, commissioner in the North, referring to the "mischievous practices of Satan" against the King and the recent accusation and imprisonment of the Earl of Bothwell, requesting that Marischall, and others, attend Edinburgh in May for discussions dated Edinburgh 24th April 1592, comprising 25 lines on one leaf in a formal or secretarial hand, 204 x 308mm, signed by the King 'James R.', some dampstaining and two holes, a little chipped around edgesFootnote: Note: It is possible that the "mischievous practices of Satan" refer to the storms in 1589 which prevented Anne of Denmark sailing to meet her husband, James VI, in Scotland. The storms drowned Anne's intended lady in waiting, Jane Kennedy, and were attributed to witchcraft by the Danish admiral, Peder Munk. King James became obsessed with witchcraft, with an ensuing witch hunt and the arrest of over 100 suspected witches in North Berwick. Under torture, many confessed to meeting with the Devil in the church on Halloween and attempting to sink the King's ship, alongside other anti-monarchy activities. Francis Stewart, the 5th Earl of Bothwell, was also implicated in the witchcraft accusations, and is mentioned in this letter.

Spanish master, ca. 1560."Christ Carrying the Cross.Oil on pine panel.Provenance: Milá Collection Barcelona with old attribution to Sebastiano del Piombo.Measurements: 66 x 49 cm; 83,5 x 66 cm (frame).The wood on the shoulders, the visible marks of torment, the thorns breaking through the flesh or the tension of a body that seems to carry the weight of all humanity, remain in the background before the penetrating gaze of Him. The profoundly human eyes dialogue with us in such a clear and truthful way that it is impossible not to be moved by them. Jesus' calm expression makes us witnesses to the road to Calvary and to his having stopped for us. Surely the hand of a master was able to make a work with such a transcendent message with such clarity. The most divine face manifests such humanity that anyone who looks at it ends up seeing inside himself.The work shows Jesus Christ half-length, carrying the heavy cross on his left shoulder, while he fixes his gaze on the spectator, entering into a silent dialogue with him. This is a serene and restrained Christ, despite the fact that he is enduring an indescribable degree of pain. This pain is reflected in the drops of blood that are falling from his head and running down his half-naked body. The drops take on a realistic feel to the point where if we see them up close they are capable of acquiring volume and escaping into the frame itself. The thorns of the crown are inserted into Jesus' flesh, piercing it so aggressively that when they sink into it they mark the relief under the skin and even tear it, as in the case of the eyebrow. The cross, of which we can only see part of two logs, is presented with an almost architectural rotundity, showing the heavy burden it carries. We must realise that the message of this passage is the acceptance of the Passion itself. Christ's suffering has an end and he himself, in full awareness of it, does not flee from it or revel in the pain, but embraces it. The deep, tear-filled gaze that wells up in his eyes is directed at the spectator with such severity that it seems to inculcate the proposed message. Although it is a work full of serenity despite its rigour and meticulousness, the painter faithfully represents an instant. As if we were on the Via Dolorosa itself on the road to Calvary, Christ carrying the cross stops his eyes on us and stares at us.The silhouette of the Christ appears so clearly delimited in some parts that it becomes tangible, while in others it seems to merge with the contours amidst the darkness. This interplay directs our gaze to the points where the artist has sought to focus our attention. The precision with which he has executed many of the details gives them a high degree of realism, such as the almost individually painted hair of the beard or the grain of the wood of the cross.

Davis R.M.L.I.) traces of verdigris to latter, otherwise very fine (2) £70-£90 --- Gerald Henry Manning, a native of Liverpool, was born on 24 July 1887 and joined H.M.S. Queen Mary on 7 December 1915. He was present at the Battle of Jutland, 31 May 1916, when, under the command of Captain C. I. Prowse, Queen Mary engaged the German ships SMS Seydlitz and SMS Derfflinger during the opening phase of the Battle.

Charles J Lundgren (New York, Connecticut, 1911 - 1988) "Warspite" Signed lower right. Oil on Masonite. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This artwork was originally published on the Fleetwood Proofcard for the Great Britain Maritime stamps issued June 16, 1982. By the onset of World War II, both the Warspite and her commander, Admiral Lord Cunningham, had already tallied several distinguished decades serving the Royal Navy. The enemy Italian Fleet soon learned to fear this experienced duo ... and with good reason. What made the 30,600 ton Warspite one of the deadliest warships of the Mediterranean was her massive fifteen-inch guns, which in the battle of Calabria on July 9, 1940, inflicted the first real shock to the Italian Navy. This occurred when the Warspite hit the battleship Giulio Cesare at the impressive range of fifteen miles. The Warspite's unusual, long-range hit had failed to sink the vessel, but Cunningham found that it was to have "moral effect quite out of proportion to the damage." Never again would the Italian Navy willingly confront the fire of British battleships. Cunningham's aggressiveness ultimately won the Mediterranean for the British, and in September 1943, he witnessed the surrender of the demoralized Italian Fleet in what he called "a most moving and thrilling sight." His flagship Warspite, "which had struck the first blow against the Italians three years before," led "her erstwhile opponents to Malta into captivity." Cunningham once indicated his deep respect for his old friend Warspite in a light-hearted message praising her speed: "Operation well carried out. There is no doubt that when the old lady lifts her skirt, she can run." Image Size: 18.5 x 20 in. Overall Size: 25 x 27 in. Unframed. (B07537)
