A racing flag from the Royal Sailing Yacht Britannia, circa 1936
Located in Lymington, Hampshire
A racing flag from the Royal Sailing Yacht Britannia, circa 1936. This large racing flag was made from pieced wool bunting with machine stitched bunting and a canvas sleeve stamped ‘5’. It is of rectangular form with the Prince of Wales feathers enclosed in a ducal coronet and the motto ‘Ich Dien’ on a halved blue and red ground, later framed and glazed. It is accompanied by a black edged letter on Buckingham Palace writing paper dated 10th July 1936 saying ‘Dear Sir, I am commanded by the King and Queen Mary to send you these flags which were flown on board “Britannia” at various times during her career, including one of her racing flags. Their Majesties hope you will like to keep these in your club house as souvenirs of the old yacht. Yours Derek Keppell, Master of the Household, The Commodore, Royal Portsmouth Corinthian Yacht Club.” King George died on 20 January 1936 which explains the black edge to the letter. English, circa 1936. Height: 43in (109cm) Width:60in (152.5cm) Framed height: 57½ in (146 cm) Width: 81½ in (207cm) Provenance: Royal Naval Club & Royal Albert Yacht Club, Portsmouth R.S.Y. Britannia played an important part in preparing challengers for the America’s Cup. She was used as a trial horse for the Shamrocks and later, after conversion, for most of the ‘J’ Class yachts of the 1930s. Britannia was built in 1893 according to the plans of G. L. Watson for His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, a keen and able helmsman. From the beginning, Britannia was a successful racing yacht winning races against Kaiser Wilhelm’s Meteors, among many others. Britannia won over two hundred races in her career — a record that has yet to be surpassed. She was beaten once by Navahoe, one of Herreshoff’s boats, but fared better against another America’s Cup yacht, Vigilant, winning twelve races out of seventeen. When Britannia was converted to race in the ‘J’ Class she was stripped of her bulwarks, given a one-piece mast and a Bermudan mainsail. The transition did not interrupt her run of success, although she performed best in hard weather. She was scuttled off the Isle of Wight at the dying request of George V.

Original plans and projects for the redevelopment of Hursley Park: 1902 - 1904
Located in SAINT-OUEN-SUR-SEINE, FR
This set of model elements accompanied by plans constitutes part of the project to redevelop the Hursley Park mansion, also called , commissioned by the Coopers family who acquired it in 1902. The project is entrusted to the architect Scottish Alexander Marshall Mackenzie (1848-1933). Originally built in the early 1720s, Hursley House was purchased in 1902 by Sir George Cooper and his wife Mary Emma Smith. Their desire to transform the place into an 18th century palace is perfectly illustrated by the purchase, to decorate their ballroom, of 18th century Beauvais tapestries. The decor was to highlight the French art collections of the Hursley Park mansion. The model elements that we present perfectly embody an eclectic taste for the arts of the 18th century, and in particular the ornamentation which simultaneously summons all the styles up to that of Louis XIV. The model, representing the decorations, allows you to see all the opulence of the interior of Hursley House. Large openings hosting tapestries, highlighted by richly decorated woodwork, frame large doors or mirrors displaying large garlands of flowers. The main model presents an interior design project for the “Grand Salon”. Another part of the models is dedicated to the representation of a bedroom of Mrs. Gould, on cardboard made by Tochon-Lepage & Cie. The model of the Grand Salon, probably an abandoned project of the Drawing Room which was actually completed, presents a sumptuous decoration in a Regency style. Rectangular in shape, the two longest walls of the room in turn present a decor decorated with tapestries and a series of three windows accompanied by a large mirror. The two smaller walls facing each other have on one side a fireplace topped...
