Portrait of Emperor Leopold I, Holy Roman Empire

Lot #304 (Sale Order 285 of 484)

Oil on canvas, 28" x 25" relined. Unframed. Portrait of Leopold I (1640-1705) anointed King of Hungary, Bohemia and Serbia and elected Holy Roman Emperor in 1658. Leopold's reign was marked with conflicts with the Ottoman Empire in the east and with his French cousin, Louis XIV, in the west. His military career was marked with great successes against the Turks, recovering most of the Kingdom of Hungary from their hands. However, in his last war with the French coalition, the results were less than spectacular, although there were no material losses in terms of Austrian territory. This appears to be a court portrait, possibly original to the period, but likely a later 18th century copy.

Lot Of 2: Cased Medals.

Lot #318 (Sale Order 299 of 484)

This large collection of shooting medals were won by Brian Moore of California, along with the following lots 319 - 398, and were all part of his collection, which spanned 60 years. His working experience includes time spend Lockheed working on missile projects, IBM working with moon exploration as commissioned by President John F. Kennedy, and worked at Stanford and University of California in their labs. He was integral to the Moon program and worked with General Curtis Lamay and Buzz Aldrin. He invented, designed, worked on, produced, and solved many of the issues during the early days of U.S. space exploration. He also is credited with inventing and designing the first submarine with umbilical system for underwater launches of missiles in Cape Canaveral. His ability as a marksman, as evidenced by the numerous metals in this collection, was well known. He was a lifetime master in both pistol and high powered rifle. Much of his spare time throughout a span of 50 years was spent at the Napa Rifle Range, but he traveled as far as Japan as the Naval Air Station. The last time he fired a match using iron sights at 1,000 yards was in Hollister, California using his National Match M1 Springfield. He started competing in 1939 and continued for 45 years. It is also very apparent that Brian had a life long love affair with all things mechanical and his passion for the shooting sports was unparalleled. This large collection of shooting medals is encompassed in two period framed collections consisting of 42 medals in each display. It would be extremely tedious to list each and every medal. Most are for revolver and pistol. The dating of the medals in Frame (A) are 1946 to 1960; the majority of the matches were shot in Oakland with some scattered NRA and National Match medals. They are all in excellent shape with ribbons. Frame (B) medals are dated 1946 to 1948 and are also in excellent condition with ribbons. Green background has some fading. It is obvious some medals have some sterling silver and are tarnished. We do not know if any are real gold. Many have the enamel decorations.
