William Crozier, Irish 1930-2011 - Greta, 1962; oil on canvas, signed on the reverse 'Crozier', 91.2 x 91.2 cm (ARR) Provenance: The Collection of Mary and Alan Hobart, Founders of Pyms Gallery, purchased c.2010 Exhibited: Arnolfini Gallery, Bristol ‘William Crozier. Paintings 1959/63’, 30th March-26th April 1963, no.16; Pyms Gallery, London, 'William Crozier: Early Work', 9th June-20th July 2010, cat. no.36, illus. p.63 (titled 'October, 1962') Note: a photo-record of the work is included in the Arthur Tooth & Sons archive, no.C3627. The present work marks a major turning point in the artist's career as he came to full aesthetic maturity. He had held his first solo exhibition a few years before at the Parton Gallery in 1958 and in works such as 'Greta, 1962', he combines an understanding of European gestural painting with his own individual subject matter, isolating figures against a deeply coloured landscape in a manner reminiscent of Francis Bacon. The subject of the work is unknown, but at the time Crozier frequently made paintings referencing close female friends. Crozier would exhibit a number of these works with the celebrated gallery Arthur Tooth & Sons, London, in 1962 and 1963, and they would help cement his work on an international stage. A number are now in public collections, such as 'Fallen Man II, 1961' (Glasgow Museums Resource Centre), 'Self-Portrait, 1961' (Ruth Borchard Collection) and 'White-Eyed Buzzard, 1962' (Kirklees Museums and Galleries). The interest in works by Crozier of this period has continued with the in 2011, the Imperial War museum purchasing ‘Bourlon Wood, 1961' in 2011 and the National Gallery of Ireland purchasing ‘Flanders Fields, 1961’ emphasising the importance of this period in the artist's oeuvre. With thanks to the Estate of William Crozier for their assistance in the cataloguing of this work.

A magnificent Victorian silver sculptural trophy for the 1875 Chesterfield Cup at Goodwood won by Sir Anthony de Rothschild’s racehorse Coomassie, hallmarked Emanuel Emanuel, Old Bond Street, London, 1874, modelled by the sculptor H. Owen-Hale, formed as a cast sculptural group with a ferocious depiction of fallen warriors and two knights in horseback combat during the defeat of the Saxons by King Arthur at the Battle of Mount Badon (late 5th/early 6th century), seemingly inspired by the engraving “Defeat of the Saxons by Arthur” by Charles William Sheeres (fl. 1851-1868) published in Cassel’s Illustrated History of England, Vol.1, illustration, p.25, published by Cassell, Petter & Galpin, London, Paris & New York, 1865, with shaped oblong ebonised wood base with curved ends, the sides applied with two silver plaques, one depicting the Landing of the Saxons in Britain, the other with the treacherous slaughter of the Britons by order of Hengist, the ends each applied with a shield and spears roundel, one inscribed GOODWOOD 1875, the other WON BY COOMASSIE, one of the fighting knights lacking the head of his battle axe, otherwise in fine condition, 72cm. high, 10,285gr.Provenance: Christie’s 23rd June 1999 lot 59.Goodwood House was purchased by the first Duke or Richmond in 1697. The races on top of the downs were introduced by the third Duke of Richmond and have been an annual event since 1801, public from the year after. The main meeting that has become known as Glorious Goodwood was and is still held over five days in the last week of July. The oldest race at the meeting, the Goodwood Cup, has been held since 1812, while the Stewards' Cup was first run in 1840 and the Sussex Stake the year after.The trophy being offered here is for the Chesterfield Cup, named after George Stanhope, 6th Earl of Chesterfield and was first run under this title in 1841, although the race can be traced slightly earlier to 1839 when it was run as the Harkaway Cup. As the magnificence of the trophy would suggest it was a very prestigious race at Goodwood at this time. It is still run for today but over the years has been downgraded in importance and become a handicap race, albeit a valuable one - this year’s race sponsored by Coral was worth over £50,000 to the winner.In 1875 the Chesterfield Cup was won by the three-year-old bay filly Coomassie owned by Sir Anthony de Rothschild, 1st Baronet (1810-1876), who had also bred her at the Aston Clinton estate in Buckinghamshire. Coomassie was to win the Chesterfield Cup again the following year, although sadly not witnessed by Sir Anthony who had died in the January.The sculptor of the trophy H. Owen-Hale later worked for Copeland producing high quality work in the company’s range of Parian Ware, simulating classical marble sculpture in porcelain. He is also remembered for his public sculpture, a memorial bust in marble & granite of the architect Edward Pugin erected in Ramsgate in 1879 and can still be enjoyed today opposite the old Granville Hotel and close to the Granville Theatre.The magnificent horse racing trophies of the Victorian period offered at Goodwood, Ascot and elsewhere invariably had a strong equestrian theme but rarely in a sporting context. Instead, designers took influence from historical events or imagery romanticised through literature and the arts in general. For many years the Illustrated London News published articles and engravings of these sumptuous trophies. Indeed, the present Chesterfield Cup has a write up in the edition published 31st July 1875, p.23, with the trophy engraved and illustrated.

She lived in Bournemouth and was married to the decorative artist Arthur Henry Andrews (1906-1966).

Dudley Wallis was curator at the Holburne Museum in Bath from November 1913-1917, and crucially oversaw the moving of the museum to its purpose built current home on Great Pulteney Street. Although the collection of the museum is pre-twentieth century, Wallis himself owned an important group of modern British paintings including works by Walter Sickert, Christopher Wood and Sir Matthew Smith, some of which were sold in these rooms on the eighteenth April 1951. Interestingly, Wallis' predecessor at the Holburne, Hugh Blaker, had also combined his role as curator of historical artefacts with his love of avant-garde art when he acted as art advisor to Gwendoline and Margaret Davies, whose impressive collection of impressionist and post-impressionist works of art was bequeathed to the National Museum of Wales in 1951 and 1963.

FOUR VINTAGE LARGE VASES AND ONE JUG TO INCLUDE ARTHUR WOOD, CARDENWALL

Christopher Wood (1901-1930) "Footbridge on the Seine" Signed and dated 1924, pen and ink, 19.5cm by 30cm Provenance: The Redfern Gallery, London, Purchaser R. Gathorne-Hardy Esq., January 1945 The Estate of Mrs Markova Noel Loaned to Sheffield Museums Trust Christopher Wood (1901-1903), in his short life, became held in high regard amongst artistic circles in both London and Paris, being now remembered as a youthful genius.Born near Liverpool, he began drawing whilst recovering from septicaemia aged 14. After studying architecture and medicine for just a year at university, he moved to London in 1920. Here he met an art collector, who invited him to Paris, where he studied drawing a the Académie Julien.He was drawn effortlessly into fashionable artistic circles, where he met Augustus John and the diplomat Antonio de Gandarillas, whom he moved in with and was supported by. Gandarillas also introduced him to the likes of Pablo Picasso, Jean Cocteau and George Auric, along with opium. Following the last-minute cancellation of a commission for designs for the Ballets Russe, Wood moved back to London, becoming first a member of the exhibiting collectives the London Group, and then the Seven and Five Society.Formatively, he exhibited with Ben and Winifred Nicholson in 1927, with whom he would become close friends. Wood accompanied the Nicholsons on painting trips to Cumberland and Cornwall, and in St. Ives discovered Alfred Wallis, whose ‘primitive’ expressionism helped him develop his own style.In 1929 he was given a solo show at Arthur Tooth & Sons, and a rather less successful joint exhibition with Ben Nicholson in Paris. Having had a painting expedition to Brittany, the resulting paintings were due to be exhibited at Wertheim Gallery in London. However, Wood was struck by a train whilst travelling back from meeting his mother, thought to be suicide brought on by psychosis, despite being reported as an accident at the time. Posthumously, his work was widely exhibited. The piece is on buff paper. Slight cockling to the paper. There are black lines to the outer edges in places. Slight time staining to the paper and the odd minor sporadic foxing spot in places, for example to the right corner of the top edge, to the knee of the figure left corner. Not examined out of the frame. (see images).
