The manufacture ran from 1853 to 1856 and so its production was limited, although it is thought that 37,000 Colt Navy pistols were produced at this location. A private collection The frame numbers all correspond, and the single action cocks to both positions and this indexes the cylinder as expected.The grips seems to be original as they have shrunken away from the frame.The surface of the cylinder, frame, barrel and hammer show some historic pitting from usage.The fore end of the pistol shows a little play where it joins the cylinder frame, this is minimal and due to use and wear and tare.The pistol came from a retired military man who collected London-made Colt pistols that we have sold previously.No safety guarantee is made or inferred regarding the status of proof of this pistol.

RICHTER, DANIEL1962 EutinTitel: "WAW - (wie es war)". Datierung: 1998. Technik: Öl und Lack auf Leinwand. Maße: 240 x 195cm. Bezeichnung: Signiert, datiert und betitelt verso oben links: Daniel Richter 98 - WAW - (wie es war). Hier zudem mit weiteren Zeichnungen versehen. Rahmen/Sockel: Atelierleiste. Provenienz:- Contemporary Fine Arts, Berlin (Stempel)- Privatsammlung SüddeutschlandAusstellungen:- Museum Morsbroich, Leverkusen 2003Literatur: - Ausst.-Kat. New Abstract Painting, Painting Abstract Now, Museum Morsbroich, Leverkusen 2003, Abb. - Typische farbintensive und vielschichtige Leinwand aus der frühen abstrakten Phase- Seit über 20 Jahren in einer süddeutschen Privatsammlung- Daniel Richter gehört zu den gefragtesten zeitgenössischen Künstlern DeutschlandsDaniel Richter interessiert vor allem die Farbe und was man mit ihr machen kann. Er malt mit Pinseln, Spachteln, Fingern oder der ganzen Handfläche. Er verwischt scharfe Kanten mit einem Lappen oder schüttet die Farbe direkt auf die Leinwand, ganz im Zeichen der amerikanischen Action Paintings. Bis zur Jahrtausendwende malt Daniel Richter ungegenständlich, meist auf großen Formaten. Er arbeitet vorwiegend in Öl auf Leinwand unter gelegentlicher Verwendung von Lackfarben. Hierdurch ergeben sich unterschiedliche Texturen auf der Oberfläche. Die gesamte Bildfläche wird mit eindrucksvollen malerischen Gesten gefüllt. Material und Technik werden hinterfragt, Willkür und Zufall erhalten Einzug in den Schaffensprozess. Es gibt kein Zentrum, keine Perspektive, wohl aber eine formatfüllende Farbdichte, die eine ganz eigene ästhetische Bildsprache spricht.Aus dieser frühen abstrakten Phase, nämlich aus dem Jahr 1998, stammt auch die hier angebotene energiegeladene, farbintensive Komposition. Man kann sich im Erkunden der verschiedenen Malschichten regelrecht verlieren und je länger man die Leinwand betrachtet, umso mehr Dinge tun sich auf: Wir sehen im Untergrund gitterartige Strukturen, die fast ornamental anmuten oder wie ein Flickenteppich zusammenhängen. Darüber liegen lineare Gespinste, fließende, tropfende Formen, Rinnsale und "Farbseen". Die großformatige Arbeit weist neben den charakteristisch leuchtenden Farbkreationen auch einzelne figurative Elemente, wie beispielsweise die menschenähnliche Silhouette am rechten Bildrand, auf und gibt so bereits einen frühen Ausblick auf Richters spätere künstlerische Entwicklung nach der Jahrtausendwende.
