Henry Coombes, British b.1977- "Umbrella" 2005; mixed media, oil paint on found umbrella, 84cm long, (ARR) Provenance: Purchased from Sorcha Dallas Gallery, Glasgow by the previous owner. Henry wrote: “The Umbrella was in my studio in 2005, being rainy Glasgow, I used it, left it open to dry. I was painting a series of oil paintings you can find on my website, ( oil painting section) Glen Golly, Ponker, Lady offering Cock to Fox. I loved what was happening on the pallet more than what was happening on the canvas. So the end of every day I would scrape it off and smear it on the umbrella. I am somewhat superstitious I believe in the notion of bad luck, I was afraid the open umbrella would upset the painting gods. So the ritual of putting the paint on the umbrella was to change into something new that would appease the spirits of bad luck, and bring good fortune to the painting. Paint is a fluid process will ultimately can not control, and if we try to hard it becomes dull illustration. I teach art in prison I see painting holding together the lives of life prisoners. I have huge faith in its power and same time I am humbled by it every time I go into the studio”. Henry Coombes’ distinctive art practice has received wide recognition since his graduation from Glasgow School of Art in 2002. He has a multi-disciplinary practice working in painting, collage, drawing, sculpture and film. Earlier film works like ‘Laddy and the Lady’ and ‘The Bedfords’ explored ideas of class, hierarchy, hunting for sport and Victorian...

Geological Map of Europe by A.K. Johnston – Mountains and Valleys 1852 This elegant 1852 map titled "The Mountains, Table Lands, Plains & Valleys of Europe" was designed by the acclaimed Scottish geographer Alexander Keith Johnston and published by William Blackwood & Sons, Edinburgh and London. Issued as Plate 5 in Johnston’s pioneering work *The Physical Atlas of Natural Phenomena*, this map presents a physical topographic view of Europe with a focus on land elevation and terrain structure, rather than political borders. Rendered in soft shades of beige, green, and blue, the map clearly delineates Europe’s major mountain ranges, including the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, Apennines, and the Scandinavian Mountains. Valleys, upland plateaus, and lowlands are carefully shaded and labeled, giving a three-dimensional sense of the landscape. The careful use of hachuring and color gradients creates a tactile impression of Europe’s relief, from the Scottish Highlands to the Ural Mountains. Rather than showing countries, the map categorizes the land by geological and geomorphological features. The title and key in the lower right explain the distinctions between highlands, tablelands, and low plains, emphasizing natural geography over human boundaries. This approach reflects the 19th-century scientific movement toward thematic cartography—maps made not to navigate or govern, but to understand physical phenomena. Alexander Keith Johnston (1804–1871), Geographer in Ordinary to the Queen for Scotland, was one of the most respected mapmakers of the Victorian era. His *Physical Atlas* was a groundbreaking work in visual science, and among the first to systematically map climate, geology, hydrology, and landforms across the globe. This plate is a beautifully executed example of early data visualization and remains highly relevant for collectors of antique scientific prints...
