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 its original wooden box, which is sitting on top of a Hall Court Sports & Leisure jigsaw.
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.

The cardboard jigsaw at the front was not completed at the House Party. It is the 1000pc Cheatwell Games Machu Picchu, in the World's Smallest series, measuring 43x29cm. The pieces are tiny, making it only suitable for one person to work on at a time.
The series consists of at least four jigsaws: Great Pyramid at Giza, The Taj Mahal and Neuschwanstein Castle.
