1783réf. 14487London 1783. Diameter: 70mm 2.75 inches. Globe 12 hand-coloured engraved paper gores clipped at 65 degrees latitude with two polar calottes over a papier mâché and plaster sphere varnished housed within original shagreen over paste-board clamshell case with hooks and eyes lined with 12 hand-coloured engraved celestial gores with two polar calottes varnished. The case split in both halves where hinge would have been loss to exterior and minor loss to celestial gores. Biography During the first half of the nineteenth century the firm of Newton together with Bardin and Cary occupied a leading position in the manufacture of globes in London. The firm was established by John Newton in 1783 and operated originally from the Globe & Sun 128 Chancery Lane moving to 97 Chancery Lane in 1803 before settling at 66 Chancery Lane in 1817. John Newton 1759-1844 was trained by Thomas Bateman fl1754-81 who had previously been apprenticed to Nathaniel Hill fl1746-1768. Newton's first globe was a revised edition of Hill's 1754 pocket globe which he published in 1783 in association with William Palmer. The partnership dissolved shortly after and Newton continued to publish the pocket globe under his own name. John's second son William Newton 1786-1861 joined the firm between 1814-1816 which traded under the name J. & W. Newton. In the same year the firm produced a new series of globes including a new pocket globe. By the 1830s the firm was also active as a patent agent and was joined by Miles Berry a civil engineer and patent agent after which the firm was known as Newton Berry & Son. In 1842 William's eldest son William Edward Newton 1818-1879 joined the business followed by his brother Alfred Vincent Newton 1821-1900. The firm became known as W. Newton & Son or once again on the death of William as simply Newton & Son from 1861 until about 1883. Perhaps the greatest triumph for the Newton family was the Great Exhibition of 1851 where aside from the globes they exhibited from 150 to 635mm 1 to 25 inches in diameter they were awarded a prize medal for a manuscript terrestrial globe of six feet in diameter. Geography Newton used Hill's copper plates from his 1754 pocket globe for the present globe with a number of alternations and updates. He has changed the text within the cartouche to feature his own name however he retains the rococo cartouche that Hill used. Newton added Captain Cook's track and updated the Australian coastline with his discoveries including "New Holland" "New South Wales" "Botany Bay" "Dimens Land" "Lewins Land" the "Isles of St Francis" and "New Zeeland". The globe shows the equinoctial graduated in degrees and the conforming ecliptic is highlighted in green. The prime meridian passes through London and the principal land masses are outlined in colour and annotated with some of the major rivers and mountain ranges. The oceans show the winds with islands labelled and printed with dotted lines for Admiral Anson's Tract and the tract of Captain Cook's first voyage in 1760 while the North Pacific region features a rococo scroll title cartouche. Astronomy The gores are pasted to the inside of the case and the cartography features stars expressed in varying orders of magnitude and allegorical representations of the constellations finely executed.

1841réf. 12729London Newton and Son 1841. Diameter globes: 12 inches / 305 cm. Total height: 275 inches / 70 cm. Full titles: Newtons New and Improved Terrestrial Globe Embracing every recent Discovery to the Present Time. Manufactured by Newton & Son 66 Chancery Lane. London Published Jan: 1st 1841. Newtons New and Improved Celestial Globe On which all the Stars Nebulae and Clusters contained in the extensive Catalogue of the late F. Woolaston F.R.S. are accurately laid down their Right Ascensions and Declinations having been recalculated for the Year 1830 by W. Newton. Manufactured by Newton and Son Chancery Lane. London Published Jan 1st 1841. The Terrestrial globe: This globe consists of twelve copperplate original hand coloured varnished gores expertly crafted onto the papier-mache globe itself. Gores are the printed panels with curved sides that taper to a point at each end making up a surface of the globe. They are designed to give a complete three-dimensional map when cut and adhered to the globe. The paper horizon ring shows the months of the year and the days within each month plus stars and constellations along with the names of the zodiac. The globe has a brass hour circle fitted above the north pole. By turning this thin small metal circle divided evenly into 24 segments you can calculate the time difference between various locations on the globe. The globe also features a fully metal graduated meridian ring - a ring that arches 360 degrees around the globe and passes over the two poles. The ring is quartered in four by 90-degree quadrants and constellations. Straddling the equator circle in the Pacific Ocean region you will find the Analemma. The Analemma extends between the points 23.5 north and 23.5 south only or between the Tropic of Capricorn and the Tropic of Cancer. The region between these lines is known as the tropics. The Sun's rays do not fall vertically outside the tropics. The globe sits above a three-legged mahogany tripod with a turned base and delightful and elegant tapered feet. The title of the globe is found in the North Pacific Ocean. The globe has an attractive patina because of its age and is in full original hand colour. Some regions of the world are coloured in a muted green but for the most part an off-white colour is seen. Some political and country borders are delineated by a thin pale red line. The United States is divided into East and West via the Mississippi River. Mexico extends northwards into Texas New Mexico and California. Many native American Indian tribal lands are mentioned: Snake Indians Chepawans StrongBow Canada Fall Indians Assimboins Hare Indians Canada. Old place names are evident in Canada and the United States - many betray the Spanish presence in Mexico at the time; New Norfolk New Albion New Navarre New Madrid New Leon New Biscay to name a few. Condition: The wooden horizon ring has a papered surface has one restored diagonal cut and split. There is some notable surface loss to gores just to the west of Peru in South America and in the South Pacific Ocean - near to the Analemma. There is black vertical scarring to parts of what would be California and British Columbia in Western Canada. The Celestial globe: The paper horizon ring shows the months of the year and the days within each month plus stars and constellations along with the names of the zodiac. The globe has a brass hour circle fitted above the north pole. By turning this thin small metal circle divided evenly into 24 segments you can calculate the time difference between various locations on the globe. The globe also features a fully metal graduated meridian ring - a ring that arches 360 degrees around the globe and passes over the two poles. The ring is quartered in four by 90-degree quadrants and constellations. This globe also sits on an identical three-legged mahogany tripod with a turned base and has the delightful and elegant tapered feet. This globe also has an attractive pale patina because of its age. The globe is beautifully varnished and in general uncoloured but on closer inspection you can detect some original applied colour. The title of the globe is to be found just above the Tropic of Cancer close by a scale of the magnitude of stars. Celestial globes show the apparent positions of the stars in the sky. They omit the Sun Moon and planets because the positions of these bodies vary relative to those of the stars but the ecliptic along which the Sun moves is indicated. Condition: The globe is in remarkably good condition with very few flaws or blemishes. There is one distinct diagonal split or crack to the horizon ring at December. There is some minor discolouration to the top of the gores that are under the brass hour circle at the North Pole. Seen and displayed as a pair of matching table globes these are very handsome indeed. Beautifully made and produced by one of the premier globe makers of the 19th-century in England. They would be a fine addition to any academic institution or make a welcome addition to any home or library into which they were placed. London, Newton and Son unknown
