Frank Vernon Martin (1921 - 2005)"Amazone", a study of a woman on horseback flanked by three hunting dogs, advancing through a dense forest, drypoint, artist's proof, signed in graphite, in contemporary ebonised frame under glass, 23 cm x 29 cm overall[Martin was born in Dulwich, South London in 1921 and grew up attending the theatre alongside his mother, who worked as an actress in the 1920s-1930s. This sparked a lifelong fascination with the acting profession and reinforced his love of the movies, making him an avid filmgoer and inspiring numerous works later in life.The artist began studying history at Oxford, but decided to pursue an artistic career after being commissioned into the Royal Artillery in 1941. Upon his return, he enrolled in the printing department of Saint Martin's School of Art, London where he was taught by prominent etchers and wood engravers; Clifford Webb and Gertrude Hermes.He began his professional career as a freelance illustrator, wood engraver and commercial artist; illustrating fashion for The Sunday Times. He also produced works for other books, magazines and private clients; receiving eight major Folio Society commissions, designing a letterhead for British author/journalist Evelyn Waugh and creating cover illustrations for the Oxford Standard Authors series. One such Folio Society rendering, for Stendhal's Scarlet and Black, was praised as "the best series of post-war English illustrations". He taught his craft at the Camberwell School of Art, becoming Senior Lecturer and later Head of Department. He retired in 1980, devoting the last 25 years of his life to his art and producing limited-edition prints. His favourite and most renowned works, those of Hollywood actresses of the silent movie era, ooze nostalgia and present an adoration of women, their intelligence and beauty. No doubt inspired by a childhood immersed in his mother's aura and the glamour of her profession.His work is held in public and private collections worldwide. These include Tate and Victoria and Albert Museum, London and in the private collections of actor Sir Michael Caine and musician Sir Elton John.Numerous solo exhibitions include locations such as Folio Society, National Film Theatre, Lyric Theatre Hammersmith, Editions Graphiques Gallery, Atrium Gallery and the Leeds International Film Festival. ]

Giovanni Antonio Guardi, 1698/99 – 1760GemäldepaarAUFBRUCH ZUR JAGDsowieRAST BEI DER JAGDÖl auf Leinwand.23 x 33 cm.Beigegeben eine Expertise von Dario Succi, Gorizia, vom 28. Februar 1997, in Kopie.Der Malstil des Italieners unterscheidet sich völlig von dem holländischer oder deutscher Meister bei der Behandlung derartiger Jagdszenen. Guardi hat bewusst auf akribische Details verzichtet, um stattdessen das Wesentliche in den Vordergrund zu rücken: die dynamischen Bewegungen und die subtilen Lichtstimmungen, die seine Werke durchdringen. Damit kommt der Zeitverlauf der Handlungen in diesen Darstellungen in jedem Detail zur Wirkung. Auch versteht es Guardi hier, das Weiß des Schimmels mit Wolkenbildungen farbkompositorisch in Verbindung zu setzen, anders als etwa der Holländer Wouwerman. Guardi verzichtet hier auch auf detaillierte Wiedergabe etwa des Bauernhauses in der „Rast“, wohingegen die Aufmerksamkeit weit mehr auf das Herumspringen der Hunde gerichtet ist. Auch im Gegenstück, das den „Aufbruch zur Jagd“ zeigt, liegt alle Spannung in der Spontanität der hoch- und vorspringenden Pferde. Das Gesamtwerk des Malers zeigt, dass er sich weit mehr als seine venezianischen Kollegen neben der Vedute auch den figürlichen Szenerien gewidmet hat. Hierin war er ein Meister in der Wiedergabe des flüchtigen Augenblicks. Dies zeigen auch seine Bilder religiöser Themen.Literatur:Antonio Morassi, Guardi, Bd. II., Venedig 1973, Abb. 161-162.

John Shinnors (B.1950) Fox Hunting Sheep Oil on canvas, 91.5 x 113cm (36 x 44½") SignedShinnors delights in moments of visual ambiguity and confusion, something he traces back to a moment when, having established himself as a virtuoso painter of magic realist compositions, he became dissatisfied. One morning at a fishmongers he was transfixed by the sight of mackerel laid out on a tray, translated into an abstract arrangement of pattern, light and contrast. It was as though he was really seeing them for the first time. The idea of the familiar, tangible world transformed into a complex pictorial abstraction, while retaining the power of the source image, stayed with him.In this work we have a birds-eye view of the pictorial plane. The fox ‘pencil like’ in appearance, lays waiting, as the sheep traverse across the top part of the canvas, while his palette is typically monochromatic. He did not set out with the aim of becoming a professional artist. His attendance at Limerick School of Art could be described as casual - though the school was then overseen by Jack Donovan, an exemplary influence. After time spent wandering in England he returned to Limerick and taught art for a while. His early, highly realist style was usurped by the sudden realization that a painting could be more than a representation as such, that it could enshrine that magical, inexplicable moment of "dynamic interaction." A master of a monochromatic palette, endlessly inventive with a distinctive visual wit, he's never looked back since.
