Diana of Albi - a large Continental life size plaster figure, standing, before a trunk on a shaped oval base, 183cm high, early 19th Century This is a copy of the original marble which was excavated in 1792 from Bulargefe (Gabii) in Italy. It dates from around 1820. The original marble of Diana of Gabii was bought by Napoleon in 1807 and displayed in The Louvre in 1820 where it has remained ever since. Copies were made in composition which involved the construction of armatures of metal and hessian for strength and the body then modelled around them. Note how fine the modelling is and whilst it needs a little careful restoration it remains in fine original condition. A number of copies were made but it is doubtful whether many are still in existence today. This figure was found a few years ago in an old library in Belgium.

Plea to an Oracle from an immigrant to Egypt, - in Greek, manuscript on papyrus [Egypt, first century BC in Greek, manuscript on papyrus [Egypt, first century BC.] Papyrus fragment (with small losses at upper right and lowermost edges), remains of 13 lines in Ptolemaic diplomatic cursive, reverse blank, small cracks and rubbed areas with losses but quite legible and in fair and presentable condition, 103mm. by 67mm., framed in Perspex From the collection of Anton Fackelmann (1916-86), conservator of the Vienna Papyrus Sammlung, and recovered by him from mummy cartonnage. This is one of the two earliest extant examples of a breathtakingly rare text from antiquity - an address to an Oracle by a supplicant seeking their aid or advice. Other examples show that when seeking an Oracle s advice in the Ancient World, you often gave your questions to the priests in a written form, receiving a document in reply. Almost all include just brief questions, such as should I go? , giving us little information about the lives of those who asked the questions, but here there is much information and a heart-wrenching question which still touches its reader emotionally some two millennia after it was written. The writer calls himself Ptolemaios and states that due to a lack of the bare necessities of life, I have left my homeland, taking my children with me, and I now ask you to show yourselves to be merciful towards me and my children, and to return to me this sheet [with a reply] if it is useful to me to continue to live with them . Publications: H. Bannert and H. Harrauer in Wiener Studien, N.F. 14, 1980, pp. 37-9 (wrongly identified there as a court speech); M. Gronewald and D. Hagedorn, Eine Orakelbitte aus Ptolemäischer Zeit , Zeitschrift für Papyrologie und Epigraphik , 41, 1989, pp. 289-93
