Provenance- label for Tyndale 

collection, indicating the figure 

was taken from a tomb at Luxor, 

probably in the first decade of the

The collection label almost 

certainly refers to the artist Walter 

Tyndale (British, 1855–1943), who 

visited Egypt twice around 1906- 

10 and wrote two books about his 

travels entitled L’Égypte d’hier et 

d’aujourd’hui, published by Paris 

Hachette, 1910 and An artist in 

Egypt, published by Hodder & 

Stoughton, 1912. 

There are two Ancient Egyptian 

shabti for Satmut which were 

excavated at Gurob with labels 

for the Tyndale collection in the 

National Museums, Liverpool (one 

is accession number 56.5.78), 

Walter Tyndale worked with 

Currelly Charles Currelly at Deir 

el-Bahari 1906-07. Currelly had 

worked at Gurob in the 1903-04 

season and may have given the 

National Museums, Liverpool 

shabti to Walter Tyndale.

fillets, remnants of madder stain, 56mm diameter, 12mm deep 

Literature – The Victoria & Albert Museum includes a number of similar gaming pieces in its collection and 

their catalogue entry states - 

Round gaming pieces such as this one almost certainly belonged to sets of ‘tablemen’. The game of 

tables, or backgammon was popular in the eleventh and twelfth centuries, draughts only becoming 

established in the later Middle Ages. There were fifteen counters to each side, and twelfth-century boards 

inlaid with bone settings have been excavated at Gloucester and Saint- Denis. Only one full set with two 

sides of fifteen counters and a board, that at Gloucester, still exists, but it is clear that a great variety of 

subjects was carved on the discs, ranging from single animals to scenes from classical mythology. 

Although some 250 examples of Romanesque gaming pieces decorated with figures are known to exist, 

most are held in museum collections and are scarcely seen for sale on the open market. 

Gorringe’s are grateful to Dr. Paul Williamson, for confirming the authenticity this piece. In addition to 

numerous learned publications, Dr. Williamson also wrote - Medieval Ivory Carvings: Early Christian to 

Romanesque, V & A Publising, 2010, which includes a chapter on Tablemen.

Paul Cardinal Cullen (29 April 1803 – 24 October 1878) was Roman Catholic Archbishop of Dublin and 

previously of Armagh, and the first Irish cardinal. His Ultramontanism spearheaded the Romanisation of 

the Catholic Church in Ireland and ushered in the devotional revolution experienced in Ireland through the 

second half of the 19th century and much of the 20th century. A trained biblical theologian and scholar of 

ancient languages, Cullen crafted the formula for papal infallibility at the First Vatican Council. 

Cullen paid frequent visits to Rome. He took part in the definition of the dogma of the Immaculate Conception 

of the Blessed Virgin Mary in 1854 and with the 18th centenary of the martyrdom of Saints Peter and Paul in 

1867, when he stayed at the Irish College. 

He was the most important Irish political figure in the 30 years between Daniel O’Connell and Charles 

Stuart Parnell. In political matters, Cullen made it a rule to support every measure, whatever its provenance, 

conducive to the interests of his vision for the Roman Catholic Church in Ireland. Desmond Bowen considers 

Cardinal Cullen “a cautious, suspicious, and usually shrewd product of the Roman school of diplomacy”. 

Cullen also started the practice of Irish priests wearing Roman collars and being called “Father” (instead of 

“Mister”) by their parishioners.

Sluggard, bronze, signed ‘Fred 

Leighton’ and with title to the front of

This bronze is a sketch for the 

finished work and one of an edition 

cast by Singer and Sons of Frome, 

Somerset. It is the version that was 

produced for the collectors’ market, a 

reduced version of the finished work 

never being cast. Singer and Sons 

set up their new foundry capable of 

casting using the lost wax and sand 

casting processes in 1888. Rights 

to market the model from 1890 were 

bought by Arthur Leslie Collie who 

sold these and other New School 

sculpture from his joint premises 

with Agnew’s in Old Bond Street. A 

bronze cast which bore his name 

and that of the founder Singer and 

Sons was exhibited at the Arts and 

Crafts exhibition of 1890. By 1901 

Collie was no longer associated with 

Agnew’s and by 1906 he was no longer 

listed in the art directory. Casts 

made under Collie’s name can be 

accurately dated to this period.

Crawford, C.R. Ashbee Architect, Designer & Romantic 

Socialist, London, 1985, p. 331, fig. 166. Crawford 

recounts Ashbee’s interest in three broken, bulbous bottles 

of green glass, unearthed in the course of the clearing of 

the building site for the Magpie and Stump in 1893. In his 

romantic enthusiasm for the archaeology of the Chelsea 

area he kept the bottles, noting ‘it was doubtless bottles of 

that shape....good solid glass, from which Falstaff and his 

worthies drank their sack’. Four years later, James Powell 

and Sons produced more refined versions of the bottles in 

thinner glass which Ashbee then cased in silver.
