each with a splat back pierced with Gothic quatrefoils above a saddle seat on turned front legs united by crinoline stretcher, two stamped, one ‘AMOS’ the other ‘AMOS GRANTHAM’, comprising: a pair of armchairs and four side chairs (6) Catalogue Note The Amos family of Little Gonerby, nearby Grantham in Lincolnshire, were among the region’s finest makers of early 19th­century Windsor chairs. The family worked within the Grantham tradition but with a refined touch, their chairs are known for their slender turnings, elegant proportions and the characteristic use of yew with elm seats. The family’s output spans a period of stylistic change with early examples featuring naturally curved branch under­arm supports, while later pieces adopt the finely turned supports that became fashionable in the 1820s. Surviving Amos chairs are valued today for their craftsmanship, lightness and distinctive Lincolnshire character.

Catalogue Note The practice of decorating furniture with contrasting inlays was used as far back as Ancient Egypt. It continued to flourish during the Medieval period in Islamic cities such as Cairo and Damascus, where geometric patterns were created using tiny inlaid pieces of bone or ivory and various woods. The technique seems to have been adopted in both Spain and Italy, particularly Venice, from about 1450, and was used on boxes and chests like the present lot. References in Italian 16th­century inventories to chests ‘alla veneziana’ (in the Venetian style) may refer to this style of decoration. For similarly decorated chests and cassoni, see Sotheby's, 27th October 2021, Arts of the Islamic World, lot 201, the V & A Museum, accession no. 7224­1860 and the National Trust, Polesden Lacey, ref. no.

Barbedienne fondeur Pairs’ and with circular Collas pastille 92.5cm high Catalogue Note Gloria Victis, crafted in the aftermath of the Franco­Prussian War, reflects Antonin Mercié’s shift in intention from a victorious soldier being lifted by Fame to a fallen hero borne upward by Victory­a poignant alteration made in line with France’s defeat. This composition soon became a national emblem, with replicas evident in numerous war memorials across France, including at Deux­Sèvres, Niort, Agen, and Bordeaux. Mercié sits among the most distinguished French sculptors of his time, his talents recognised with a string of honours and awards throughout his life. He received the Prix de Rome in 1868 including the Légion d'honneur at the 1874 Salon for Gloria Victis, and the Grand Prix at the 1878 Exposition Universelle. He was appointed as professor at the École des Beaux­Arts in 1900 and subsequently elected as President of the Société des Artistes Français in 1913. To this day, Gloria Victis remains one of Mercié’s most enduring and eloquent expressions of heroism and national resilience.

215 A RARE LATE VICTORIAN TAXIDERMY RED SQUIRREL TEA PARTY

ATTRIBUTED TO WALTER POTTER (1835­1918), C.1880­90

the anthropomorphic tableau depicting twelve red squirrels, seven seated around a table eating and drinking, with miniature items of cutlery, glassware and crockery one squirrel wiping his mouth with a napkin with initials ‘E J M’ and five as a band playing musical instruments including a cello, violin and a French horn, in a glazed giltwood and composition display case on stand 130.2cm high, 92cm wide, 64cm deep Catalogue Note Walter Potter, the Victorian taxidermist, is known for his whimsical dioramas featuring small animals such as kittens, rabbits, squirrels, and birds enacting uncannily human scenes, from table games to afternoon tea. Potter began creating his playful taxidermies aged 15, eventually gaining such attention that he opened the Walter Potter Taxidermy Museum in 1880 in Bramber, Sussex, which enabled him to capitalize upon the Victorians’ enthusiasm for the macabre. Potter combined skilled mounting with miniature props and highly detailed costumes, arranged in a theatrical manner to create scenes inspired by literature and by social and domestic rituals. Over time these curiosities fell out of fashion, and the collection was auctioned and dispersed in 2003, with many tableaux now belonging to private collectors worldwide­cherished for their unconventional charm. His work reflects Victorian sentimentality, curiosity culture, and a fascination with anthropomorphism, leaving behind a legacy that is arguably iconic yet unsettling in equal measure. See Bonhams, The Sale of the Contents of Mr Potter's Museum of Curiosities, 23rd September 2003 for related examples including: lot 293 the 'The Kittens Wedding', which sold for £21,150 (including premium).
