‘Thebes’ stool Walnut London, 1900 H 36.5 x W 36.5 x D 31 cm Manufactured by Liberty & Co Liberty & Co. Regent Street label, with serial number beneath the seat Literature: Daryl Bennett, Liberty’s Furniture 1875-1915: The Birth of Modern Interior Design, Antique Collectors’ Club, p. 97, pl. 4.16 A faithful copy of the original Egyptian version, this stool reflects the aesthetic influence of the colonies on British artistic production, and in particular on that of Liberty & Co. at the end of the nineteenth century. The name ‘Thebes’ derives from the identical stool discovered in a tomb dating from the 18th Dynasty in the region of the ancient city of Thebes (modern-day Luxor) by an English diplomat. Appointed British Consul-General in Cairo in 1815, Henry Salt developed a passion for ancient Egypt and undertook a series of archaeological excavations. Following his death in 1827, the archaeological works from his collection were sold at Sotheby’s in 1835. The stool was acquired by the British Museum on this occasion. The original is on permanent display at the British Museum.

Heutink Ikonen
‘Weep not for Me, Mother’ Russia, mid 17th century Egg tempera on gesso on linen-covered wood 31 x 26 cm Provenance: private collection, Belgium; Morsink Ikonen, Amsterdam Among the most moving images of Orthodox art is the icon known as ‘Weep Not for Me, Mother’. Its title is drawn from the liturgy of Holy Saturday, where Christ addresses his grieving mother from the tomb: 'Weep not for Me, O Mother... for I shall arise and be glorified…' The icon depicts a moment between the crucifixion and the Resurrection: the profound silence of Holy Saturday. Christ stands or rises from the tomb, whilst the Mother of God tenderly embraces him and mourns for him. The intensity of their encounter lends the image an extraordinary emotional power. Although the scene may remind Western viewers of the Pietà, its spiritual focus is different. Whilst the Pietà centres on the grief of the Blessed Virgin, ‘Weep Not for Me, Mother’ looks forward to Easter and the promise that death does not have the final say.
