Abstract Charles Philippe de Bosset (1773–1845) was a Swiss soldier and British imperial official who established an extensive archaeological and numismatic collection from the Mediterranean region, particularly the Ionian Islands. His collections are now in the British Museum, the Laténium in Neuchâtel and the Musée d’Art et d’Histoire de Neuchâtel. This article establishes the circumstances of the British Museum’s acquisition in the early nineteenth century of its part of the de Bosset collection of coins, two bas-reliefs and a bronze. It then considers the process of removing duplicate coins from the British Museum collection through sales and exchanges by an examination of the de Bosset acquisition. Finally, it uses de Bosset’s own publication in 1815 of the coins of Cephalonia, Ithaca and Delphi as a case-study to restore archaeological provenance and a catalogue of that part of de Bosset’s collection.
查尔斯·菲利普·德·博塞(Charles Philippe de Bosset, 1773-1845)是一名瑞士士兵和英国帝国官员，他在地中海地区，特别是爱奥尼亚群岛建立了广泛的考古和钱币收藏。他的藏品现在在大英博物馆、neuch tel的latsamnium和neuch tel的mussame d 'Art et d 'Histoire de neuch tel。这篇文章建立了大英博物馆在19世纪早期收购的部分德博塞特硬币收藏的情况，两个浅浮雕和一个青铜。然后，它通过对德博塞特收购的审查，考虑了通过销售和交换从大英博物馆藏品中移除复制硬币的过程。最后，它使用德博塞自己在1815年出版的Cephalonia, Ithaca和Delphi的硬币作为案例研究，以恢复考古来源和德博塞收藏的那部分目录。

Abstract Dr Philip Nelson, who died in 1953, was an antiquary and collector who lived in Liverpool. One of the highlights of the collections of classical sculpture in the World Museum, part of National Museums Liverpool, is a group of statuettes and busts acquired by Nelson from the 12th Lord Kinnaird and formerly housed in Rossie Priory, near Perth in Scotland. Although Nelson bought only two sculptures from the first auction of sculptures from the Rossie Priory collection, held at Sotheby’s in London in December 1948, it is apparent that he acquired several others, either directly from Lord Kinnaird or through dealers. Details of this process can be found in the archives of the World Museum and the Walker Art Gallery, also part of National Museums Liverpool, including hitherto unpublished letters, notebooks and invoices, reproduced here in an online appendix. The correspondence provides an insight into the formation of a private collection of ancient sculpture in the first half of the twentieth century, a period often overlooked in collecting scholarship.

This article examines the role of French antique dealers and the auction sales that took place at the Hôtel Drouot in Paris in the 1860s and 1870s in forming the sizeable collection of fine and decorative art of John and Joséphine Bowes, founders of the Bowes Museum in County Durham. Using primary sources published here for the first time, and presenting an extensive online Appendix of auction sales that appear in the archive at the Bowes Museum, it will demonstrate that the Bowes participated in a collecting network that was the product of a rapidly expanding art market in the second half of the nineteenth century. This argues against previous studies of the Bowes’ collecting, which have viewed them as singular and idiosyncratic collectors, and instead places them in the context of emerging private collections such as the Wallace Collection and public institutions such as the South Kensington Museum. However, rather than suggesting that the Bowes emulated private and institutional collectors such as Sir Richard Wallace and Sir John Charles Robinson, it is shown that the sophistication of the art market at this point allowed for diversity in collecting, allowing less wealthy and lower-status collectors to form collections of note.

Abstract In this article, we examine the organization of the British diplomatic service in the Ottoman Empire and analyse its transition from a prestigious, privately financed, highly individualized public office to a state-funded, but fragmented and poorly paid body. We survey the idiosyncratic character of the diplomatic apparatus set up by the Levant Company to serve its business pursuits, infiltrate local society and obtain political favours. In 1825 the Foreign Office replaced the Levant Company officers with public servants who had no ties or affinities with Levantine society. However, to obtain antiquities for the British Museum, the Foreign Office had to turn once again to British Levantines. Based on our earlier published work, 1 as well as recent unpublished archival research, this paper explains how the collecting of antiquities in the Ottoman Empire relied entirely on the British diplomatic service and its Levantine connection.

The end of entailed estates, or ‘mayorazgos’, in Spain brought about an unprecedented movement of art objects, although paradoxically the dispersal of art collections also gave rise to a renewed valuation of their restoration as a way to symbolize the restoration of the ‘mayorazgo’. The legislation that ended the status of the ‘mayorazgo’ also gave rise to the proliferation of documentation on collections, often resulting in their reordering in a way that reflected the new paradigms of the institutionalization of the arts. This paper will shed light on the strategies adopted by the dukes of Alba at this complex crossroads, as they navigated the uncharted waters of managing an art collection during and immediately following its disentailment, balancing financial interests and cultural distinction in the transition from the Old to the New Regimes.
