HERALDRY BOOKS & WORKS OF ART FROM THE COLLECTION OF IAN HARKNESS Ian Harkness once wrote, “heraldry is not simply a subject of medieval history, but is as alive and meaningful today as it has ever been.” Heraldry was Ian’s lifelong passion. Over the years he not only amassed an extensive library of books on the subject (as seen in the following section), but he also produced an impressive amount of his own work, particularly relating to Cumbria and its churches. Ian was recognised among his peers as one of the most knowledgeable experts in this field, and he was often called upon to share his knowledge, which he did with great enthusiasm. It was Ian’s wish that his collection of books should continue to be used and appreciated by people with an interest in heraldry.

It was, without hyperbole, most astonishingly beautiful. I could not help delicately insinuating that I conceived such writing not more the production of a fine-formed Hand, than the emanation of an elegant Soul; and I ended with lamenting my own most shameful deficiency in this respect. He desired to see my writing — I shewed him some — he might have read it by the light of my Blushes...it contained never the less the seeds of a good hand... I regard them as the causes, and that time as the Æra of my surprizing conversion — a conversion to be parrelleled by none since the conversion of St. Paul...” Note: Published in the Collected Letters, ed. Griggs, I, 9-11 (No.6). Provenance: The property of a gentleman by direct descent from George Coleridge. £500-700

Made with 100” Hooker Telescope’, silver bromide prints, the first two titled and credited to Mount Wilson Solar Observatory on printed labels on the reverse, the third titled in pencil on the reverse (3) Literature: Planetary Nebula’ illustrated L. Rudaux & G. de Vaucouleurs 1948, p. 364. Ring Nebula reproduced L. Rudaux & G. de Vaucouleurs 1948, p. 365, with the caption ‘La Nébuleuse Annulaire M 57 de la Lyre est le prototype des Nébuleuses planétaires. Observatoire du Mont-Wilson, Télescope de 2m, 50, pose 1 heure, 1921’. Note: The Mount Wilson Observatory was established in 1904 by George Ellery Hale, with funding by the Carnegie Board of Trustees. Born in Chicago in 1868, Hale was fascinated by space from an early age, building his own telescope when just a child. As a student in 1890-91, he invented the Spectrohelioscope, an instrument which would revolutionise knowledge of the Sun’s activities. The Planetary Nebula of this lot was taken by George W. Ritchey who, prior to working at the Mount Wilson Solar Observatory, had already collaborated with George Ellery Hale at the Yerkes Observatory, William’s Bay, Wisconsin. Ritchey built the 60 inch (1m 50) telescope and later the large 100 inch (2m 50) telescope at Mount Wilson. Planetary Nebula was first observed by Sir William Herschel in 1782. In 1850 it was named ‘Saturn Nebula’ by Lord Ross in his work Observations on Nebula because, looking at it through his 182cm telescope, Ross saw it as a miniature replica of the planet Saturn. £300-500

209 Yosemite, California — Watkins, Carleton E. “El Capitan, 3,300 feet, Yosemite, California”. New series view, Mammoth albumen print, 52 by 38cm, framed and glazed Note An iconic image by one of San Francisco’s best known photographers who gained international fame in the 1860’s for his views of the Yosemite Valley. Following his expedition to Yosemite, Watkins’ reputation was securely established and for the next two decades he created some of the finest American landscape photographs of the nineteenth century. In 1875 Watkins declared bankruptcy and his negatives and gallery were sold to photographier Isaiah Taber who began to publish Watkins’s images under his own name. Watkins began again with a “New Series” of photographs, including a wide variety of subjects and formats, and returnined to many of the sites previously captured in his “Old Series” of images. The San Francisco earthquake and fire of 1906 destroyed the entire contents of his studio, which he had inteneded to preserve at Stanford University. £1,500-2,000

BOOKS FROM THE LIBRARY OF THE ROYAL COLLEGE OF SURGEONS IN IRELAND The Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland and its antiquarian library The Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland from its foundation in 1784 established a library — levying one guinea annually from members. The library was amassed by purchases and bequests over the following centuries and continued to be the working library of the College until the mid 20th century. The early printings, now on sale, cover significant developments in the history of medicine and surgery. They also include natural history, travel and literature. The close ties with other universities, especially Leiden and Edinburgh, demonstrated by the library’s content, show that the RCSI was closely connected to medical developments on the Continent and in Edinburgh in particular. Nowadays the RCSI — a modern health sciences campus with the largest medical school in Ireland and an international presence — is served by a library that is increasingly electronic. In addition a strategy to concentrate on the RCSI archives and modern records — material that is essential and unique to RCSI — has led to the decision to dispose of the antiquarian books. All volumes catalogued singly from the RCSI library are subject to return under the usual terms and conditions; lots comprising more than one title are sold not subject to return. The majority of the books have a library stamp on the title and half-title only. Travel & natural history books from the RCSI library will also be offered in Sotheby’s sale of Travel, Atlases, Maps and Natural History, on 10th May. Medical books from the RCSI library will also be offered in Sotheby’s sale of Continental books, including science and medicine on 8th June. Further books from this collection will be offered in Lyon & Turnbull’s sale on 7th September.

10. COMMISSION BIDS While prospective buyers are strongly advised to attend the auction and are always responsible for any decision to bid for a particular lot and shall be assumed to have carefully inspected and satisfied themselves as to its condition we shall if so instructed clearly and in writing execute bids on their behalf. Neither the auctioneer or our employees or agents shall be responsible for any failure to do so. Where two or more commission bids at the same level are recorded we reserve the right in our absolute discretion to prefer the first bid so made. 11.

origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price involve matters of opinion. We undertake that any such opinion shall be honestly and reasonably held and accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently. Subject to the foregoing neither we the auctioneer or our employees or agents or the seller accept liability for the correctness of such opinions and all conditions and warranties, whether relating to description, condition or quality of lots, express, implied or statutory, are hereby excluded. This Condition is subject to the next following Condition concerning deliberate forgeries and applies save as provided for in paragraph 6 “information to buyers”. (2) Private treaty sales made under these Conditions are deemed to be sales by auction for purposes of consumer legislation. 16. FORGERIES Notwithstanding the preceding Condition, any Lot which proves to be a deliberate forgery (as defined) may be returned to us by you within 21 days of the auction provided it is in the same condition as when bought, and is accompanied by particulars identifying it from the relevant catalogue description and a written statement of defects. If we are satisfied from the evidence presented that the lot is a deliberate forgery we shall refund the money paid by you for the lot including any buyer’s premium provided that (1) if the catalogue description reflected the accepted view of scholars and experts as at the date of sale or (2) you personally are not able to transfer a good and marketable title to us, you shall have no rights under this condition. The right of return provided by this Condition is additional to any right or remedy provided by law or by these Conditions of Sale.
12. AGENCY

17. We shall have the right at our discretion, to refuse admission to our premises or attendance at our auctions by any person.
13.

DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITION (1) While we seek to describe lots accurately, it may be impractical for us to carry out exhaustive due diligence on each lot. Prospective buyers are given ample opportunities to view and inspect before any sale and they (and any independent experts on their behalf) must satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any description applied to a lot. Prospective buyers also bid on the understanding that, inevitably, representations or statements by us as to authorship, genuineness,
18 (1) Any right to compensation for losses liabilities and expenses incurred in respect of and as a result of any breach of these Conditions and any exclusions provided by them shall be available to the seller and/or the auctioneer as appropriate. (2). Such rights and exclusions shall extend to and be deemed to be for the benefit of employees and agents of the seller and/or the auctioneer who may themselves enforce them. 19. Any notice to any buyer, seller, bidder or viewer may be given by first class mail in which case it shall be deemed to have been received by the addressee 48 hours after posting. 20. Special terms may be used in catalogue descriptions of particular classes of items (Books, Jewellery, paintings, guns, firearms etc) in which case the descriptions must be interpreted in accordance with any glossary or guidance notes appearing in the catalogue. These notices and terms will also form part of our terms and conditions of sales. 21. Any indulgence extended to bidders buyers or sellers by us notwithstanding the strict terms of these Conditions or of the Terms of Consignment shall affect the position at the relevant time only and in respect of that particular concession only; in all other respects these Conditions shall be construed as having full force and effect. 22. Scottish law applies to the interpretation of these Conditions.
