Holtzapffel Lot16 600pc St Augustine Preaching Before Ethelbert 3repl adj DSC07715
This jigsaw was sold in the auction of Dave Cooper's jigsaws at the November 2019 meeting and assembled at the 2020 House Party. I'm not sure when the jigsaw was finished - my earliest photo was taken at 15.42 on Sunday 23rd Feb.
Lot 16 – Holtzapffel, Augustine preaching before King Ethelbert, 600pc, complete 3repl, 23.5x17.3in, wooden box, est£120 – START £140 MADE £180
This was the first medium-large rectangular Holtzapffel to be auctioned with an attractive fine-art image and extensive line-cutting. It is housed in a wooden box.
Another example of this jigsaw can be seen on Jigasaurus, whose cut features more push-fit pieces with few knobs. The jigsaw was sold on by David Shearer in April 2014, but unfortunately I didn't record the price. Painted by the prolific British artist/illustrator Henry Justice Ford (1860-1941), this important and colourful religious scene depicts the Benedictine monk Augustine, soon to become First Archbishop of Canterbury, preaching to King Ethelbert, shortly to become England's first Christian King.
