SCOTTISH GEORGIAN ROYAL COAT OF ARMS, JOHN STEELLA monumental Scottish Georgian grey painted Royal Coat of Arms Sir John Steell RSA, Edinburgh first half 19th century Signed J Steell / Edn. height 59in (150cm); width 93in (236cm); depth 21in (53cm)Provenance: Property from a Collector, New York City.Footnote: Sir John Robert Steell RSA (18 September 1804 - 15 September 1891) was one of thirteen children born to John Steell senior (1779-1849), a carver and guilder, and Margaret Gourlay. Steell initially followed his father, training to be a carver himself, being apprenticed in 1818. Working with his father, his first major commission came in 1827 when the North British Fire Insurance Company commissioned a huge timber statue of St Andrew to be placed on the outside of their office. His first work to attract international attention was Alexander taming Bucephalus carved in 1832-33 (cast in bronze in 1883, and now standing in the quadrangle of Edinburgh City Chambers). Around 1838 he was appointed as Sculptor to Her Majesty the Queen, a post which was later recognized as part of the Royal Household in Scotland. In 1840 he opened Scotlands first foundry dedicated to sculpture, on Grove Street in Edinburgh, to cast his model of the Duke of Wellington. Steell frequently exhibited at the Royal Scottish Academy and the Royal Academy in London. He was knighted by Queen Victoria in 1876 following the unveiling of his statue The Prince Consort, an equestrian depiction of Prince Albert, which stands in the center of Charlotte Square in Edinburgh. Steells best known pieces include the statue of Sir Walter Scott sitting with his dog Maida under the Scott Monument, carved 1840-46 from a single 30 ton block of Carrara marble; a stone statue of Queen Victoria on top of the Royal Scottish Academy, 1844 and a bronze equestrian statue of the Duke of Wellington outside Register House in Edinburgh, 1852. Steel also produced several likenesses of Robert Burns, national poet of Scotland among many other works.

- Edward Duke of Windsor TNS King's
Edward Duke of Windsor TNS King's Farewell 2pp 6.5 x 9.5 in. on heavy paper. Souvenir from Edward's abdication. Signed by Edward / Duke of Windsor at the bottom of the first page. Other copies have appeared on the market signed on the second page. The speech has also been printed on silk scarves and recordings were available (78rpm). Edward (1894 - 1972) was popular as Prince of Wales and King of England if only for slightly less than a year in the latter role. He abdicated the throne as Edward VIII on December 10 1936 and the following day addressed the people: ...[U]ntil now it has not been constitutionally possible for me to speak. A few hours ago I discharged by last duty as King and Emperor ... I have found it impossible to carry the heavy burden of responsibility and to discharge my duties as King ... without the help and support of the woman I love and I want you to know that the decision I have made has been mine and mine alone.... The other person most dearly concerned has tried... to persuade me to take a different course. He declared his allegiance to his brother and said that his brother's competence aided in making his decision since George could step into the position seamlessly. Edward and Wallis married when her second divorce became final and remained together for 35 years until his death in 1972. Condition: Excellent.
