Autograph Letter Signed ("Elgin"), 2 1/4 pp recto and verso, 8vo (conjoined leaves), Broom Hall [Dunfermline], January 17, 1831, to the antiquary James Skene, about pictures he was lending for an exhibition. 2. Report from the select committee of the House of Commons on the earl o…f Elgin's collection of sculptured marbles. House of Commons, 1816. Folio. 77 pp. Modern wrappers; cloth chemise. Detailing the conditions of purchase of the Elgin Marbles by the British Museum. BLACKMER COPY Catalogue #740. and lot 569 in the Blackmer Sale. The expert witnesses called to the committee, which decided upon the acquisition of the marbles, included Elgin himself, William Hamilton, John Flaxman, Richard Westmacott, Richard Payne Knight, William Wilkins nd J.B.S. Morritt 3. HAWKINS & BIRCH. Description of the Collection of Ancient Marbles in the British Museum. Part VII. Sold at the British Museum, 1835. 4to. Engraved title & 19 plates.

Carpenter & Son, 1816. 8vo. 19 pp. Disbound. Four items relating to the career of Lord Elgin. Elgin was as controversial in his own lifetime as he is today, but whatever view is taken of him personally it must be admitted that he was a true lover of art and beauty. When he was arrested in France on his return from Constantinople he was held captive for three years, refusing Napoleon's offer of freedom if he would sell his antiquities to the Louvre. Although the British Museum finally bought the Elgin Marbles in 1816, the sum paid was actually less than his expenses in procuring them and he died deeply in debt. Signed.

Add to basketHolograph letter, 2 pp in-4° , written in French, signed Elgin. Thomas Bruce Elgin had a diplomatic function in Brussels in 1792. His correspondent was a member of the Breda Committee, which under the presidency of Van der Noot organised the first overthrow of the Austrian Habsburg regime in the Southern Low Countries. In this u…ndated letter Elgin tells of the different rumours in Flanders concerning the advance of the French troops. He speaks of the lifting of the siege of Ypres by the French. This lifting took place immediately after the capture of Courtrai by the French marshal Luckner (18th June 1792) so one can assume that the letter was written at the end of June 1792. Added is letter by the same in which he tries to organise a meeting with his correspondant. (the ink of this letter is very faded). Interesting letter from the man chiefly remembered for the Elgin Marbles which he brought over from Athens to the British Museum, written to a lawyer who took an active part in the Brabant Revolution and who is reported by Frenchs agents as protesting against the French occupation of Belgium after their victory at Jemappes (6th November 1792). (See E.Cruyplants; Dumouriez. pp.199; on Drugman see e.g. Polasky; Revolution in Brussels pp.229).
