A NOTTINGHAMSHIRE CARVED ALABASTER RELIEF PANEL OF THE RESURRECTION MID/LATE 15TH CENTURY Depicting Christ rising from the tomb, his foot on a sleeping soldier panel 47.5 x23cm, frame 58.5 x 36cm Provenance: Private collection in Jersey Sotheby's London, The Ronald A. Lee Collection, 28 Nov 2001, lot 8, where purchased by Robert Kime Literature: Francis Cheetham, "English Medieval Alabasters With a Catalogue of the Collection in the Victoria and Albert Museum", Boydell Press, 2005This panel belongs to a group of small-scale altarpieces and panels produced by the 'alabastermen', 'kervers' and 'marblers' working in and around Nottinghamshire from the 14th century up until the early 16th century. The alabaster was mined from a small area in the middle of England- from South Derbyshire and into Staffordshire. These hand carved devotional pieces would usually have been painted and sometimes part gilded with areas of natural polished alabaster left in contrast. Like the examples at Compton Verney, the Walters Art Museum, and the panel sold from the collection of Sir Nicholas Goodison at Christie's in 2022, each shares the same composition layout- the figure of Christ rising from the tomb, his right leg stepping over a braced fence to step onto a sleeping soldier, his cross-staff in his left hand and right hand raised in blessing (missing from this example). Cheetham records at least 130 surviving examples of this Passion scene- perhaps the most popular chosen devotional subject. For similar examples please see: Christie's London, The Collection of Sir Nicholas Goodison, 25th May 2022, lot 66 Christie's London, London Living - Wilton Crescent, Belgravia & Avenue Road, Regents Park, 26th October 2011, lot 1070 Condition Report: Wear, marks, knocks and scratches as per age, handling, use, and cleaning. As per the extra images the panel has old breaks and various levels of repairs and restoration. The main breaks seem to have occurred in a diagonal shape from the knees of seated right hand figure and down leftwards. The lower section looks to have been in at least three pieces with old glue and some surface repair, infill and restoration. Additionally there are areas, in a different colour tone, notably both upper corners and lower left corner that are later remedial infill. Some of the raised details such as the axe blade are almost certainly later and there are fault lines, cracks and flaws. The panel is in a sealed frame making reverse inspection and confirmation impossible. Please see additional images for visual references to condition which form part of this condition report.

A GEORGE II RED AND GILT JAPANNED LONGCASE CLOCK STEPHEN ASSELIN, LONDON, CIRCA 1725 The eight-day bell-striking movement with 12 inch brass break-arch dial applied with mask and foliate spandrels, a silvered Roman and arabic chapter ring, matt centre and subsidiary STRIKE/SILENT selection dial to the arch, signed on a silvered plaque 'Step. Asselin LONDON' the gilt and polychrome decorated red japanned case with chinoiserie landscapes, a domed caddy surmount 258cm high, 50.5cm wide, 26cm deep Provenance: Christie's, London, Property From A European Noble Family, 10th November 2005, lot 40, where purchased by Robert Kime Formerly at Docker Nook and Warwick Square, see Alastair Langlands, Robert Kime, Francis Lincoln Limited, London, 2015, p205Stephen Asselin is recorded working in London from around 1700. He is not recorded as becoming a member of the Clockmaker's Company which suggests that he was most likely a Huguenot immigrant.   Condition Report: Movement is essentially in working condition however mechanism is dirty/dusty hence a clean/service is required. Notches cut the 3 o'clock edges of the plates indicates that an alarm mechanism was once fitted that is no longer present. Otherwise movement appears complete and all-original. The dial in in original albeit in dirty/neglected condition. The centre shows evidence of being fitted with an alarm disc (curved cut-outs to the seconds ring and signature plate). The areas of silvering are now very thin presenting as almost brass in colour. The right-hand corner of the plate has evidence of being bent and re-straightened; the dial foot behind also has a small loss to the tip (section above the securing pin hole). The right-hand mount to the arch is missing a fin from the dolphin. The hour hand has been repaired; the minute hand and selection pointer to the arch are replacements. The seatboard is original to the movement which rests on blocks applied to the case uprights (cheek); the presence of these blocks suggests that the movement and dial re not original to the case. The dial sits a little wonky (leans to the right) hence some adjustment to the blocks will be required to level it.The case is very original retaining old surface in essentially untouched condition. The hood is in good original condition with notable faults limited to blind fret panels missing from the quadrants above the break-arch pediment and some historic worm damage. The rear of the superstructure is interestingly backed with old thick paper inscribed in ink with random Iberian text. The trunk and base are in very fine original condition with faults limited to some very slight localised flaking to the raised decoration; the finish can be best described as fine patinated old original surface with pleasing degree of age-related wear, discolouration and fading. The backboard is in fine condition and the skirting is also original albeit with historic worm damage and a small scarf repair to inner panel to the rear left hand corner. The left-hand side has some slight shrinkage cracking towards the rear edge; the lock to the trunk door is a replacement.Clock has pendulum, a pair of modern cast iron weights a crank winder and a case key.

JAMES FERRIER PRYDE (BRITISH 1866-1941) THE HOUSE Oil on canvas Signed (lower left) 91 x 74cm (35¾ x 29 in.)Painted in 1917 for the Red Cross. Provenance: Private Collection, Jeremiah Colman Private Collection, William H. Miller Arthur Tooth & Sons, London Private Collection, The Lord Parmoor, Sutton Verney Private Collection, Viscount Bearsted, M.C. T.D Sotheby's, Gleneagles, 31 August 2005, lot 970, where purchased by Robert KimeExhibited: London, The Fine Art Society, Spring, 3 May - 3 June, 1988, no. 45 London, The Redfern Gallery, An Exhibition of Paintings and Drawings by James Pryde, 22 September - 26 October 1988, no. 4 Edinburgh, The Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, James Pryde, 14 August - 11 October, 1992, no. 91, p. 106, pl. XXIII illus. Literature: Derek Hudson, James Pryde, Constable and Company Ltd., London, 1949, p. 97 This dramatic and imposing work was ultimately a result of the terrifying war years during which it was painted. 'The House' was completed in 1917, commissioned by the Red Cross. Flashes of red material are seen cascading down the facade of the house owing to the 'Red Cross' and possibly the representation of blood shed during the war years. James Pryde was born in Edinburgh in 1866. From a young age Pryde was influenced by the Glasgow School of painters looking towards artists such as James Guthrie for inspiration. After school Pryde went onto study Fine Art at the Royal Scottish Academy and felt deeply connected to Scotland throughout his life. It was his later works which were particularly influenced by Edinburgh in particular. It was the architecture, history and spirit of the city which fascinated him. Pryde became renowned for his architectural capriccios and depictions of ruins which weaved together elements of fantasy and reality to create whimsical compositions that challenged the concept of architectural representation. His compositions combined elements from different architectural styles, blending historical references and dreamlike interpretations, pushing the viewer to become immersed by the landscape and step inside the architectural form. Whilst pursuing his career as an artist Pryde worked as a part time actor. He became close friends with Sir Henry Irving and designer Edward Gordon Craig. In 1930, Pryde was commissioned to design the set of Paul Robeson's Othello. It is clear to see the mixture of influences in the present lot combining architecture, set design and sheer imagination. Condition Report: Not relined. Inspection under UV reveals no obvious evidence of restoration or repair. Appears to be in good original condition commensurate with age. Condition Report Disclaimer

Registration - S475 UKYChassis No - VF7S6NFZF56784290M.O.T. - NoneOdometer - 65,000 According to the ‘How Many Left’ website, just 653 Saxo VTRs are currently licensed for use on UK roads, which explains why these attractive pocket-rockets are now rarely seen. This attractive MK1 version matches Poseidon Blue paintwork to multi-coloured cloth interior trim. Its relatively modest indicated mileage of 65,507 is supported by its MOT record and stems from the Citroën having been dry stored for the past 10 years and travelled only 13,221 miles in the last 17. The vendor currently classes its four-cylinder engine, five-speed manual gearbox and paintwork as ‘excellent’ and the three-door bodywork and upholstery as ‘good’. He is now selling the Saxo without Reserve and complete with glass sunroof, Wharfdale audio unit and Dimma locking fuel cap. Launched in 1996, the Saxo was Citroën’s replacement for the successful AX, and was certainly a step forward in terms of design. The frontwheel drive newcomer was offered with a choice of no less than four petrol engines varying in capacity from 954 to 1587cc, and one diesel unit of 1527cc. There were two sporting options among the range – VTR and VTS. The MK1 VTR (1997-1999) was powered by a fuel-injected eight-valve version of the company’s four-cylinder 1587cc powerplant, the output of which was 90bhp. Thanks to a lightweight bodyshell, this was sufficient to sprint the three-door hatchback to 60mph in under 10 seconds and on to a top speed of c.116mph. Suspension was by coil springs up front and torsion bars at the rear, and braking by discs all-round, ventilated at the front. The bodykit that distinguished the VTR from the more junior members of the line-up was shared with the top of the range VTS model. In summary:An apparently very original eight-keeper exampleThe modest overall mileage of 65,507 is backed by the MOT recordDry stored for the last 10 years
