Wortlaut
"In 1905, he sold two brass Agba or Ẹrhẹ (Stool) at Stevens Auction Rooms in London where they were acquired by the Ethnographisches Museum in Berlin (209779; 211924). Lady Adrienne Moor inherited his collection and shortly after his death sold it off entirely to the art dealer John Sparks (Phillips, 2021, p.198[122]); she died in 1919.
Some of the most precious pieces were acquired by the ethnographer Charles Gabriel Seligman – including two Iy’Ọba Idia ivory Uhunmwu-Ẹkuẹ (Pendant Mask) considered to have been taken with three others in the Ọba’s bedchamber (Ọba Palace). Moor’s masks are today in the British Museum and the Metropolitan Museum (Bodenstein, 2019, 229-231[118])."
