Ronnie Doggett (Passed August 2011)

Any one ever in the company of Ronnie Doggett could see very quickly that Ronnie had a zest for life ~ his quick laugh and warm smile instantly put others at ease, and most certainly impacted his 50 years as a successful antiques dealer. He owned shops in Missouri, Indiana and his beloved Louisville, Kentucky, where his shop (Tin Horse Antiques) was a favorite gathering place for friends, dealers, decorators and his faithful clients. Ronnie loved to sell antiques, but his business was simply a means to an end - the hunt and acquisition of rare and beautiful objects. Ronnie had a long, trusted relationship with Garth's. He loved coming to the auctions, van loaded and cell phone in hand, dialing his clients on the way home, "I have the perfect piece for you!" With an infallible memory, he knew his clients and their collections well; buying selectively with special people in mind. This caring nature endeared him to many. We will miss Ronnie's keen eye and wonderful sense of humor; but feel sure he is smiling at the thought of his personal collection passing through this sale room, into the hands of another passionate buyer. ~ Amelia & Jeff Jeffers

NAPOLEON MONUMENT DESK SET. French, 19th century, gilt brass. In the form of the Austerlitz Column at the Place Vendome in Paris. The monument lifts off the base to reveal a tray with two inkwells and a crescent-shaped compartment. 19"h. Based on Trajan's Column in Rome, Napoleon had the column built following the French victory at Austerlitz, casting the 425 bas relief plaques from the bronze salvaged from the cannon captured during the battle. Originally, Napoleon was atop the column in classical dress, but a series of changes during the tumultuous 18-teens and 20s was finally ended when Louis-Philippe attempted to finalize the depiction of Napoleon as the "little corporal" in a tri-corn hat. In 1863, the figure was again replaced, once again in classical dress. During the era of the Grand Tour, miniature versions of monuments throughout Europe were created as souvenirs, including the Austerlitz Column. This example is likely of that period. For other examples of these miniatures, see Grand Miniatures: 19th Century Souvenir Buildings from the Collection of Ace Architects, a digital copy is available here: http://www.aceland.com/GrandMiniaturesCatalogFF_web.pdf. $1,500-$2,500
