INTRODUCTION
Mealy’s Lotabeg sale, including the public exhibition and
auction, stands to provide unprecedented access to a
showcase of rare fine art, antiques and significant historical
memorabilia, acquired by the Hart family over the past
century. The sale includes the private collection of the late
Mr Vincent Hart and his wife Evelyn Hart (née Sheedy) on
the instructions of their descendants, featuring 750 lots,
much of which was brought back to Ireland from extensive
travels in the early 1900s. An extraordinary slice of history,
the contents having remained virtually undisturbed since
the passing of the late owner Mr Vincent Hart in 1939
and, after careful stewardship by his wife Mrs Evelyn Hart
and their descendants throughout the 20th and early 21st
century, the entire contents will now go under the hammer.
About the Hart Family
Vincent Hart (1881 – 1939) was an internationally
renowned engineer who worked for the Public Works
Department of India. Born in Cork, Vincent was the son of
John S. Hart, manager of Queen’s Old Castle Department
Store in Cork for 23 years, and his wife Alicia Clara (née
Donegan). He studied at Presentation College Cork
before entering Queen’s College Cork, and later the Royal
College of Engineering in London. His career in India
blossomed into major infrastructural projects, culminating
in his appointment as Engineer-in-Chief for the Cauvery
Mettur Dam, which was the largest solid gravity dam in the
The sale includes:
Paintings
Furniture
A collection of rare Cork and other Irish silver
Rare 19th & 20th century photography

Chandeliers
Indian and other Asian art
Important Irish and other historical collectibles
Captain John C. Hart
Vincent Hart
Letter from King George V nominating and appointing
Mr. Vincent Hart to the Order of the Star of India
world at the time of its construction. In 1935, King George
V presented him with the Companionship of the Star of
India, a prestigious order of chivalry founded by Queen
Victoria, whose Knight Grand Commanders included Lord
Mountbatten, viceroy of India. The Harts brought a wide variety of furniture and decorative
items home to Lotabeg from the East, while also acquiring
art and antiques from dispersal sales and country house
auctions in Ireland. The collection of his brother Captain
John C. Hart (Captain Jack) of the Royal Army Medical
Corps is included, who travelled extensively in China and
Japan. There are various items on offer acquired by the
Harts from the collection of Sir Robert Penrose Uniacke
Fitzgerald, prior to the demolition of his house at Cork Beg
Island. There are also various items that passed to the Harts
from previous owners with the acquisition of the real estate.
About Lotabeg House
The Lotabeg story begins c.1800, when architect Abraham
Hargrave designed the building for Sir Richard Kellett.
Hargrave was very active in Cork at the time, having
superintended the erection in 1791 of St Patrick’s bridge
over the river Lee at Cork and designing other landmark
properties such as Castlehyde (now home to Mr. Michael
Flatley), Vernon Mount, and Dunkettle.
The Kellett Baronetcy of Lota in Cork, is a title in the
Baronetage of the United Kingdom, created on 6 August
1801 for Sir Richard Kellett, with remainder to the heirs
male of his father Richard Kellett. The house is one of
a group of houses in Tivoli associated with the Lota
demesnes. It is an elegant detached seven-bay two-storey
www.mealys.ie
The crest of Sir Robert Uniacke Penrose Fitzgerald,
Cork Beg Island
house over basement which includes a full height central
three-bay bow to the front northern-facing elevation,
and five-bay elevation to the south, with conical roof to
entrance bow, rendered walls with string course between
basement and ground floor, square-headed openings with
timber sliding sash windows; and a round-headed opening
to the front door with spoked fanlight over ionic columns.
The main reception rooms with 18ft ceilings, and the two
main bedrooms have south-facing windows with fantastic
views overlooking the River Lee. The front entrance hall
includes a monumental cantilevered staircase.
The Kellett connection to Lotabeg was short lived. Born
7th June 1786, Daniel (Dan) Callaghan MP was the owner
of Lotabeg in the early 19th century. He was the second
son of Daniel Callaghan (d.1824) of Sydney House, Cork
and his wife Mary Barry of Donalee. This branch of the
Callaghan family were distant kinsmen of Lord Lismore
but remained Catholic and thus endured confiscations of
land and ‘marriages beneath their rank’ until their fortunes
were restored by Daniel Callaghan Snr who became one
of Ireland’s most successful merchants by establishing a
monopoly of trade supplying the navy in Cork during the
Napoleonic wars. The second of six brothers, Dan appears
to have been the most active in the family business and
on his father’s death assumed control of the business. It
has been stated that at the 1826 Cork by-election Dan
refused on ‘public principle’ to vote for his brother Gerard,
who had abandoned the family religion to become a ‘red
hot Protestant’. However, at the 1829 by-election, he lent
him his full support, providing ‘both money and personal
exertions’.
As a prominent businessman and Irish politician, Dan
5
Callaghan served as MP for Cork City from 1830-1849 (1830-1832 as a member of
the Whig Party; 1832-1849 as a member of the Irish Repeal Association). As a member
of the Repeal Association, Dan Callaghan sought to end the Act of Union (1800),
which created the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. Together with other
contemporary Irish MPs like Daniel O’ Connell, he opposed the introduction of the Poor
Laws (Ireland), which established the Victorian workhouses to Ireland.
The famous large stone ionic arch entrance is situated on Lower Glanmire Rd,
and is known locally as ‘Callaghan’s Gate’. This impressive triumphal arch is surmounted
with a stone carved Irish wolfhound, known colloquially as ‘The Black Dog’. The landmark
commemorates the hound that saved the 19th century owner Daniel Callaghan MP from
drowning in the nearby river Lee.
It is very likely that much of the key George IV & William IV period furniture in the
house was specially commissioned by Daniel Callaghan MP in the 1830s for Lotabeg,
including a monumental William IV circular 7ft dining table (lot 500); a William IV
rosewood reclining library armchair (lot 539); an Irish mahogany sideboard (lot 356);
an Irish mahogany secretaire bookcase (70); an Irish mahogany console table (lot 96);
and others. Lot 282 (see illustration) shows a late 18th century engraving of Cornelius
Callaghan Esq., counsellor-at-law and direct ancestor of Dan Callaghan.
Cornelius Callaghan,
Counsellor at Law
The house was owned and occupied in the late 19th century by Martin Francis Ronayne
Mahony, son of Martin Francis Mahony of Lotamore. Lot 281 is an attractive portrait of
a young boy, C.W. Mahony, Esq. There are several lots with connections to the Gubbins
family who were related through marriage to the Mahonys. The house passed to Mr.
Richard Dixon, a New York banker, prior to the Harts’ era, before being purchased by
John S. Hart for Vincent Hart in the early 20th century.

SIR PETER LELY & STUDIO OF SIR PETER LELY (1618-1680)
Portrait of James Butler, 1st Duke of Ormonde (1610-1688), oil on canvas, 89” x 52” approx, full
length standing to the left in Garter robes.
Provenace: Earls of Shrewsbury, Ingestre, Staffordshire; Sotheby’s London 28th April 1971, lot
14; with Gaye Macklin Antiques, Motcomb St. London; American Private Collection; Freeman’s of
Philadelphia USA 12th April 2005 lot 9; Irish private collection.
Note: Mealy’s can certify that after careful comparison we conclude that this was that advertised
in the Connoisseur in 1971, and that it was thus in turn formerly in the collection of the Earls of
Shrewsbury, at Ingestre, a Jacobean house in Staffordshire. The picture was recorded at Ingestre
in 1955, and was sold subsequently at Sotheby’s, London on 28th April 1971 lot 14 (incorrectly as
by Kneller). The dimensions are given as 90 x 52 inches.
The picture is one of six full-length versions. What is considered to be the prime version by Lely,
that at Kilkenny Castle, shows Ormonde with his hat in his right hand. Ths is followed in three
versions, at Cirencester Park, at The Hirsel, and at Douglas Castle. Lely then appears to have
slightly altered the composition, placing the hat in Ormonde’s left hand. What seems to be an
autograph, inscribed version of this composition was formerly at Panshanger Park, Hertfordshire,
in the collection of Lady Desbrough, from whose estate it was sold at Christie’s in 1953, in
which year Penshanger was demolished. [This] picture appears to be the studio replica of the
Penshanger picture.
It appears to be in notably good state, and ranks among the most successful of his aristocratic
portrait designs, both managing and presenting the complex garter robes to great Baroque effect.

A VERY RARE CORK REPUBLIC SILVER STRAWBERRY DISH,,
by William Egan Cork 1922, the shaped edge 4” (10cm), 84gr. (1)
Note: Cork Republican Silver refers to silverware produced in Cork City during the Irish Civil War. Only sixty to eighty pieces
are known to survive. During the Irish Civil War in the summer of 1922, Cork was temporarily held by Anti-Treaty forces. Barry
M. Egan, managing director of the family firm of silversmiths William Egan & Sons, devised his own hallmark due to the fact
that he was unable to send silver to Dublin for hallmarking. It depicted a two-mast left-facing ship with a single-towered
castle to each side. These were struck, using separate dies for the ship and the castle, to the right of the maker’s mark, WE.
Once silver could again be sent to Dublin, the dies were destroyed..

Terms & Conditions for Buyers
1.) The Buyer:
The buyer shall be highest bidder acceptable to the auctioneer, whose bid is at the hammer price. Any dispute arising in relation to same shall be settled
at the auctioneer’s sole discretion. Bidders will be assumed to acting as principal in the transaction unless specific instructions are provided detailing
otherwise. As such, all bidders are liable in a personal capacity for the total amount due, irrespective of agency agreements. Mealy’s contract as agents for
sellers whose identity, for reasons of confidentiality, is generally not disclosed. Accordingly, buyers are reminded that the primary contract is between the
buyer and the seller, with Mealy’s acting as agent for the seller.
2.) Inspection:
Ample opportunity is given for inspection. Each purchaser, by making a bid for a lot, acknowledges that he or she is fully satisfied before bidding, by
physical inspection or otherwise, as to the description, condition, and other information relating to the lot. Despite all efforts being made to ensure
accurate descriptions and estimates, lots purchased are assumed to have been viewed and inspected. As such, all lots are sold with all faults and errors of
description, at the buyers risk. The Auctioneers are not responsible for the correct description, genuineness, authenticity or any default or defect in any lot,
and make no warranty in this respect. Estimates reflect a range of values, the lower of which usually represents the reserve price. Buyers are reminded that
estimates are merely the opinion of the auctioneer, are subject to change and are in no sense definitive.
3.) Payment:
All lots purchased are subject to a 20% + V.A.T. buyer’s premium. By bidding, all prospective purchasers agree in advance to pay this premium on the
hammer price. Buyers attending the auction are encouraged to pay for lots purchased on the day of sale. Unless otherwise agreed in writing prior to the
auction, the buyer of a lot shall pay to the auctioneer within five working days the total amount due. Notwithstanding this, the auctioneer may at its sole
discretion, require a buyer to pay a deposit of up to 25% of the total amount due at the conclusion of the auction. The auctioneer may apply any payments
received by a buyer towards any sums owing from that buyer to the auctioneer on any account, regardless of directions given by the buyer in that regard,
whether express or implied. Payment methods include cash, Euro bank draft, cheque drawn on the buyer’s Irish bank account, EFT (subject to applicable
bank charges), debit card and credit card (subject to 3% surcharge for Mastercard & Visa , 1% charge on any international debit card, and 5% surcharge
for American Express). Under no circumstances can the Auctioneers accept third party cheques either in full or part payment of any lot. Non-payment by a
buyer may result in any of the following actions:
- proceedings against the buyer for damages for breach of contract.
- recission of sale.
- resale of the lot(s) without notice, after which the buyer shall be responsible for any resulting deficiency in the total amount due.
- removal, storage and insurance of the lot(s) at the buyer’s expense.
- interest may be charged, commencing after five working days from the sale date, on the outstanding debt at a rate 1% above the Bank of Ireland base
interest rate on the day of purchase.
- retention of lot(s) purchased at Mealy’s until the outstanding balance is settled in full
- rejection of all future requests for bidding by the buyer or his/her agent.
- application of proceeds of sale of items consigned to Mealy’s by the buyer in settlement of outstanding balances.
4.) Reservation of Title & Risk:
Title in an item or items purchased will not pass to the buyer until Mealy’s have received payment in full, notwithstanding possession. However, each lot
remains the sole risk of the purchaser from the fall of the hammer.
5.) Collection, Removal & Dispatch of Goods:
Collection & removal of items purchased is at the buyer’s risk and expense from the fall of the hammer and is available from our offices for five working
days after the sale. No purchase shall be claimed or removed until the sale has been concluded, i.e. purchasers cannot collect items while an auction
is in progress. Collection can only take place during normal regular hours. Mealy’s shall not be responsible for lost, stolen, damaged or destroyed lots,
if not collected within the allotted time frame. All lots not removed are subject to the minimum warehousing charges outlined below. Lots not removed
within thirty days of the sale may be re-sold by auction or private sale without notice to the buyer. Any liability which there may be on the part of the
Auctioneer, in respect of any loss, shall be restricted to a maximum of the price paid by the purchaser of the lot. Storage and warehousing charges:
Please note that there will be no charge to purchasers who collect their lots within five working days of the sale. After five working days has passed,
a transfer and administration charge of €20.00 per lot will be payable and a storage charge of €2.00 per lot per day will then come into effect. These
charges are payable by the purchaser to Mealy’s and are subject to VAT. House Clearance & Specialised Sales: the charges outlined above relate to
our regular gallery sales. House Clearance sales and other specialised sales are subject to higher removal and storage charges that will be
notified to buyers where relevant. Buyers should confirm the storage and warehousing charges for such sales in advance of bidding.
If any buyer fails to comply with any of the above conditions, the damage recoverable from the defaulter shall includwe all loss arising from any re-sale
of the lot, together with the warehousing charges and expenses in respect of both sales, and any money deposited in part payment shall be held by the
auctioneer against the defaulters liability and may be appropriated in settlement of the liability. NB. Mealy’s do not offer packing or dispatch services. We
strongly recommend that all bidders consult a professional shipping company. A list of approved service providers is available on request.
6.) Forgeries:
If within 30 days after the Sale of any item, the Auctioneer receives a notice in writing from the Buyers by Registered Post that such an item is a deliberate
forgery, together with the necessary evidence to satisfy the Auctioneers of such an allegation, then the Sale of that item will be rescinded and the net
Purchase monies refunded (less any outlays incurred by the Auctioneers) to the Purchaser.

MEALY’S EST 1934
Terms & Conditions for Buyers
7.) Condition of Lots:
All lots at auction are sold ‘as is’. Mealy’s act as agents for the seller and as such, are dependent on information provided by the seller. Whilst efforts
are made to inspect lots and act reasonably in taking a general view about them, we are unable, in the normal course of business, to carry out detailed
examinations of lots to ascertain condition. In addition, Mealy’s are not restorers, conservation experts or related professionals. Buyers are provided with
ample time to examine lots and ascertain condition, and by bidding, accept the duty and responsibility for inspecting, examining and investigating lots that
they intend to bid on. Imperfections, defects and other condition issues are not stated in the catalogue description. Mechanical objects of any age are not
guaranteed to be in working order.
8.) Condition Reports:
Condition reports may be requested by buyers in advance of the sale and our employees may be able to assist buyers by providing such reports. However,
these are provided for guidance online, without legal obligation or prejudice to standard terms and conditions of sale. Such reports are merely the gratuitous
opinion of Mealy’s employees or operatives. Neither Mealy’s, nor the seller, accept any responsibility for the condition of lots or for the content of condition
reports. Subsequent disputes arising in relation to condition and/or the content of such condition reports will not be entertained.
9.) Absentee Bidding:
Absentee bidding is available to prospective purchasers in the form of commission bidding & telephone bidding. However, registration for absentee bidding
must be completed by 5pm on the day preceding the sale. Mealy’s accept no liability for acts or omissions relating to bids received after this deadline. From
time to time, Mealy’s will entertain absentee bidding requests received after the deadline has passed, but this is at the discretion of our employees and Mealy’s
accept no responsibility for accuracy in the execution of such bid requests received after the deadline. All items purchased by absentee bidders are sold
as is, and are assumed to have been viewed and inspected by the purchaser. In the case of commission bids, these will be executed by Mealy’s as cheaply
as possibly, having regard to the reserve (if any) and competing bids. If two bidders submit identical commission bids, the auctioneer has sole discretion to
determine the successful buyer, but will generally opt for the first commission bid received. Telephone bidders are reminded that telephone lines are inherently
subject to technical issues. It is strongly advised that telephone bidders leave a ‘cover bid’, e.g. a commission bid with their maximum bid price, to account for
situations in which technical issues result in telephone bidding problems. Once an absentee bid is received, a contractual agreement is in place and the bid
cannot be revoked without express agreement in writing signed by the auctioneer.
10.) Online Bidding:
Mealy’s offers online bidding services to those who cannot attend the sale via the-saleroom.com & artfact.com. Bidding registration for online bidding must
be completed by 5pm on the evening preceding the sale day. A surcharge of 3% will be levied on the ultimate hammer price, in addition to the regular
buyer’s premium of 20%, for successful purchases executed using this service. Since online bidding is hosted by 3rd parties, Mealy’s accept no liability
whatsoever for disputes arising from same. We strongly encourage all prospective buyers to utilise our absentee bidding services in priority. Online bidders
contract with the online auction host directly, not with the auction house.
However, by registering with an online auction host, the bidder:
- authorises Mealy’s, if they so wish, to charge the credit card given to the online auction host, in part or full payment, including all fees, for items
successfully purchased
-confirms that he or she is authorised to provide these credit card details and is indeed the account holder
11.) Auction Displays and Online Images:
Images are used to display items for Sale at Auction. This service is merely a reminder to the customer of items viewed previously during exhibition days.
We do not guarantee the quality or condition of the item viewed, the accuracy of the display image or guarantee the item on display is the item being sold.
Subsequent disputes arising as a result of such image displays will not be entertained.
12. Mechanical & Electrical Items and Post - 1950 Furniture:
Mechanical & electrical are sold as ‘antiques’ only, for decorative purposes. There is a duty on the buyer to have such items checked for compliance with
safety regulations by a qualified expert. Please note the Auctioneers offer no after sale guarantee whatsoever with regard to mechanical and electrical
items. We accept no subsequent liability for any damage, loss or injury arising from the use of the foregoing. All items of furniture in this sale are offered for
sale as works of art. Such items may not comply with safety regulations and should not be used functionally unless inspected by a relevant expert.
13.) Export of Goods:
Buyer’s intending to export goods purchased at Mealy’s should ascertain the following in advance of bidding:
- Whether an export license is required
- Whether there is any specific prohibition on exporting/importing goods of that character (e.g. CITES regulations)
14. Disputes & Agency:
In the event of any dispute arising in relation to any of the foregoing, the matter shall be referred to an Independent Arbitrator to be agreed between the
relevant parties. As auctioneers, we generally contract as agents for sellers whose identity, for confidentiality reasons, is not normally disclosed. Accordingly,
a buyer’s primary contract is with the seller.
