Dear INS Fellows, and visitors

I am pleased to tell you of an important auction of Napoleonic artifacts. The auction will be held on Tuesday, 29 June. It includes some very important pieces related to Napoleon’s exile on St Helena. It includes approximately 40 items that were owned by Denzil Ibbetson, who was a commissary officer and artist stationed on St Helena. His drawings are very important and his diary from the voyage over is very interesting.

I have attached the catalogue for you to see. You can get more information by going to the auction website at http://www.artandobject.co.nz/Auctions/Details/ID/69.

I am also attaching a few photos of the collection on display.

If you have any questions, please contact Hamish Coney, Managing Director, Art and Object. His email is hamish@artandobject.co.nz

If you decide to bid, I wish you very good luck!

Best regards,

David Markham
President
