Jean Marchand, French 1883–1941 - Seascape, high tide; oil on board, signed and dedicated lower left 'a ma cheri Edith J Marchand' and further annotated on the reverse, 22.2 x 27 cm Provenance: Dreweatts, Newbury, Modern & Contemporary Art, 12th Ocober 2021, lot 132, artwork sold to benefit a charitable trust created by the late William de Gelsey; a private collector of Bloomsbury related art Note: This is a wonderful example of the artist's later style, similar to the work of Albert Marquet in its gently modern depiction of the coastal landscape, evoked in careful tones of blue and a fluid brushstroke. Marchand was included in pivotal Modernist exhibitions in France and Britain in the early 20th century, including Roger Fry's 'Manet and Post-Impressionism' in 1910 and another in 1912. The artist became associated with the Bloomsbury group around this time and his solo show at Carfax Gallery in 1919 was highly praised by Clive Bell. Works by the artist are in public collections across the UK, including Charleston, Tate and the Courtauld Gallery.

Pierre Ernest Prins, French 1838-1913 - Moyettes en Seine et Oise, 1904; pastel on paper, signed lower left 'Pierre Prins', 32 x 45.5 cmNote:Prins was closely connected with Édouard Manet (1832-1883) through his wife, Fanny Claus (1846-1877), a talented violinist who also modelled for Manet, notably featuring in his 1869 painting 'Le Balcon' [Musée d'Orsay, Paris, RF 2772]. Shortly after Manet produced his first picture in pastels in 1862, Prins also began to work in the medium, and continued to do so throughout his career. Indeed, Prins is now known principally as a pastellist, with most of his prolific output today in the collection of the Musée Carnavalet in Paris. The present work is characteristic of Prins's oeuvre, with the artist's clear outlining of forms and his handling of pastel lends the work a Post-Impressionist accent.

ATTRIBUTED TO EDMA MORISOT-PONTILLON (FRENCH 1839-1921) TWO FIGURES IN A RIVER LANDSCAPE Pastel on paper laid down to canvas 38 x 46cm (14¾ x 18 in.)Provenance: The Rouart Collection, Paris Rosalind de Boland Roberts, editor of Growing Up with the Impressionists: The Diary of Julie Manet (1987) (a gift from the family of the above) Thence by descent to the present ownerAn inscription on the reverse of the painting suggests that the present work is after Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot. The work itself is very reminscent of Corot's work and it would not be surprising given that both Edma and her younger sister, Berthe Morisot were both taught by Corot. The sisters grew up in a bourgeois family just outside Paris and were artistically minded from a young age, encouraged by their mother. Having first studied under Joseph Guichard, a former student of Ingres, in 1860, they began lessons with Corot who introduced them to the art of painting en plein air. Edma in particular was strongly influenced by the Barbizon school of painting and this particular work exhibits many of the attributes associated with the movement. Unusually, the work is executed in pastel. Edma worked predominately in oils although she is noted later in life, as having produced pastel copies of Berthe's work.Edma's artistic output was curtailed by her decision to concentrate on family life after her marriage in 1869 to a naval officer, Adolphe Pontillon. The close relationship with Berthe, which had seen them traverse France painting side by side, each acting as the other's chaperone, was forever changed. The sisters corresponded throughout their lives and Edma occasionally modelled for Berthe, creating some of her most enduring images, including The Cradle, dating from 1872 and depicting Edma with her second child. Condition Report: Some light discolouration and surface dirt to the sheet. The pastel is wearing q little thin in some places. Overall the work appears to be in good condition commensurate with age.

He studied under the academic painter Louis Lamothe and became friends with fellow artists like Édouard Manet.3. **Impressionism:** Degas is often associated with the Impressionist movement, although he preferred to be considered an independent realist. He exhibited in several of the Impressionist exhibitions, sharing common interests with artists like Claude Monet and Pierre-Auguste Renoir.4. **Subject Matter:** Degas is best known for his depictions of ballet dancers, horse racing, and Parisian scenes. He captured moments of modern urban life, often focusing on movement, light, and the human figure.5. **Ballet Dancers:** One of Degas's most iconic subjects is ballet dancers.

◆ GEORGE LESLIE HUNTER (SCOTTISH 1877-1931) PEONIES IN A BLUE AND WHITE VASE Signed, oil on canvas Dimensions:61cm x 51cm (24in x 20in) Provenance:Provenance: The Fine Art Society Plc, London, Edinburgh and Glasgow, October 1987 (11383) Note: Having lost most of his early work in the San Francisco earthquake of 1906, Hunter moved to Glasgow later that year and developed a distinct approach to still life painting that encompassed art history, a sophisticated use of colour and light and a sense of serenity, all of which can be seen in Peonies in a Blue and White Vase.Hunter soon became ensconced in Glasgow’s art world, including eventual election to Glasgow Art Club. His first solo exhibition in the city, held at Alexander Reid’s La Société des Beaux-Arts gallery in 1913 proved to be a professional breakthrough, with subsequent shows mounted there attracting not only positive press coverage but also sales. As the critic of The Bailie remarked in a review of his 1916 exhibition: ‘He has three or four examples of still life that are superlatively strong. Such work is bound to live, for they show a mastery of form and colour that takes one back to the triumphs of the Dutchmen.‘ (quoted in T. J. Honeyman, Introducing Leslie Hunter, Faber and Faber Ltd, London, 1937 p. 76).The subject matter and composition of Peonies in a Blue and White Vase, with the titular flowers set in contrast to a plain background, reveal Hunter’s interest in the Dutch Old Masters that he encountered during extensive visits to the cultural centres of Edinburgh, London and Paris, as well as in the public galleries of Glasgow. His rich technique, working ‘wet on wet’, layering up colours and tones to create form and suggest the play of light on petals and glaze recalls the work of Edouard Manet, whom he is known to have admired. Sophistication is the order of the day, in the asymmetrical arrangement of the flowers and the delicate placing of a single bloom in the foreground, in an image infused with tranquillity. It was with such still lifes that Hunter came to the fore before and during World War One and which were to provide the foundation of his reputation as one of Scotland’s leading artists of the twentieth century.

◆ SAMUEL JOHN PEPLOE R.S.A. (SCOTTISH 1871-1935) STILL LIFE WITH TULIPS Signed, oil on canvas Dimensions:51cm x 51cm (20in x 20in) Provenance:Provenance: Mr & Mrs John B. RankinPrivate Collection ScotlandExhibited: Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, Edinburgh, S. J. Peploe 1871-1935, 26 June - 8 September 1985, no.78 Note: Still Life with Tulips is a remarkable painting by Samuel John Peploe, in which he brought to bear the Edwardian sophistication of the work with which he made his professional name in turn-of-the-century Edinburgh, the lessons he learnt at the heart of the Parisian art world before World War One and the progress he made during the conflict from which he emerged as a Scottish master of modern art.In an image of striking design, which remains as arresting now as when it was painted, Peploe set up his still-life arrangement in front of a sheer black background. This shows the silhouettes and bright colours of the cloth-covered table, glass vase and tulips to the greatest possible effect. He had used this approach in a celebrated series of still lifes painted in the early 1900s, such as Coffee and Liqueur (Kelvingrove Museum and Art Gallery, acc.no.35.586), Peonies (National Galleries of Scotland, acc.no. GMA 1946) and Still Life (Edinburgh Museums and Galleries, acc.no.CAC4/1964), in which Peploe paid his respects to Dutch Old Masters such as Frans Hals and to Eduoard Manet. Paintings such as these proved extremely popular when included in solo and group exhibitions in Edinburgh and London of the period, establishing Peploe as an artist of note and accomplishment.Encouraged by his friend and fellow Scottish Colourist, John Duncan Fergusson, Peploe spent two key years in Paris from 1910 until 1912. He was welcomed into Fergusson’s avant-garde Anglo-American circle of friends, the Rhythmists, and immersed himself in the very latest developments in French painting, experienced at first hand. Such was the pace of his development that he was elected a sociétaire of the cutting-edge Salon d’Automne in recognition of his contribution to the modern movement. His paintings became bolder in technique, colour and design, their progressive nature quite unlike anything that had been created, or seen, in the Edinburgh art world to which he returned two years later.Declared medically unfit for service during World War One, Peploe used the period for continuing experimentation, when canvas and paints could be sourced. Rich colour, spatial compression and a strong structure became the foundation of his still lifes, with furrowed brushstrokes and pronounced outlines coming to the fore. In 1917, he moved studio to 54 Shandwick Place in Edinburgh, where he was to remain until 1934. The following year, his election as an Associate member of the Royal Scottish Academy secured his place within the Scottish art establishment.As Alice Strang has written ‘The still lifes which Peploe painted during the period between approximately 1918 and 1923 are the works for which he is best known…Peploe changed his technique, adopting an absorbent gesso ground and reducing the amount of medium in his paint. He pushed his use of colour to the extreme and obsessively arranged objects – such as blue-and-white Chinese porcelain vases, filled initially with tulips and then usually with roses; fans; books; fruit in a variety of dishes…to create finely balanced compositions.’ (Alice Strang et al, S. J. Peploe, National Galleries of Scotland, Edinburgh, 2012, p.23)Still Life with Tulips dates from this exceptional immediate post-war period, before Peploe settled into the rose still lifes which he painted, exhibited and sold in great numbers during the 1920s. During this period he worked particularly closely with his other fellow Scottish Colourist, F. C. B. Cadell and the two shared an interest in a style which was to become known as ‘Art Deco’ following the Exposition international des arts décoratifs et industriels modernes held in Paris in 1925.At this point, tulips were Peploe’s preferred flower, often bought from stalls on nearby Princes Street. His enjoyment of their strongly-coloured stems, leaves and heads comes to the fore in their balletic presentation here. Their reaching, curving and swooning qualities, in all directions, is played out in the very frontal plane of the image to the right and in an effusion of movement from the vase. The simplified forms of the boldly-coloured petals play against the black and white planes in front of which they are positioned.Throughout, Peploe plays with notions of the space beyond the canvas, with just the angled corner of the table included, whilst the cropped fan, red tulip above it and emerging tulips to the right allude to a continuation of the narrative beyond the viewer’s gaze. The realisation not only of the translucency of the water in the vase and the stems within it, but also its reflection of the space within which the artist was working, is a tour de force passage.Given the brilliance of his tulip still lifes, it is little surprise that his painting, Tulips, of 1923, was acquired for the British national collection in 1927 (Tate, acc.no. NO4224), the year in which Peploe attained the rank of full Member of the Royal Scottish Academy. His appointment was announced in the Glasgow Herald, which described him as ‘an artist of the new movement, Mr Peploe is outstanding in Scotland, and his work has received recognition in London and abroad as well as at home.’ (10 February 1927) Indeed, Peploe’s legacy is primarily based on his mastery of the still life genre, of which Still Life with Tulips is an exceptional example.

Jacques-Émile Blanche, 1861 Paris – 1942 OffranvilleBILDNIS BÉRÉNICEÖl auf Leinwand.38 x 46 cm.Verso alte gedruckte Katalog-Aufkleber.Rahmen mit Künstler-Namenschild und Titelbezeichnung .Der Sohn eines bedeutenden Pariser Neurologen, der sich der Malerei zuwandte, wuchs in einem Elternhaus auf, in dem bedeutende Persönlichkeiten der Zeit verkehrten, wie unter anderem Éduard Manet, Edgar Degas oder Fantin-Latour. Sein Englischlehrer war der Literat Stéphane Mallarmé, der Philosoph Henri Bergson sein Klassenkamerad. Zeichenunterricht erhielt er von dem bekannten Maler Henri Gervex. Auch in den 1880er Jahren, als er nach London ging, verkehrte er im Kreis bekannter Künstler wie Beardsley, Whistler oder Oscar Wilde. In Frankreich gab es kaum einen der Bedeutenden, mit dem er nicht befreundet gewesen wäre. 1892 schuf er als Porträtist von Rang den Dichter Marcel Proust, aber auch Igor Strawinski, André Gide (1912), Cocteau oder Mary Cassatt. Ab 1930 Mitglied der Académie royale des Sciences, des Lettres et des Beaux-Arts de Belguque, wurde er 1935 in die Académie des Beaux-Arts Paris. gewält. Das Bildnis der jungen Frau, die sich vor einem Spiegel das Haar richtet, und das den Einfluss von Fantin-Latour verrät, dürfte daher wohl im Kreis dieser namhaften Gesellschaft entstanden sein.

The 'Worshipful Company of Stationers' silver-gilt and enamel table centrepieceWilliam Hutton & Sons, Sheffield 1924Depicting the polychrome enamelled coat of arms of the 'Worshipful Company of Stationers', flanked by two classical angel supporters blowing their trumpets triumphantly, both standing on a pierced scrolling foliate back-plate, the Company's motto enamelled in Latin beneath, two scroll panels reading 'VERBUM DOMINI MANET, the third panel 'IN AETERNUM' is missing, all raised on an elaborate knopped baluster stem, terminating in a spread domed oval base embossed in high and low relief with angels, scrolls and acanthus leaves, inscribed 'The Gift of Herbert Fitch Master 1922/23', height 60cm, width 34cm, weight total 188oz.Footnotes:ProvenanceCommissioned by Herbert Fitch in 1924 and presented to the 'Worshipful Company of Stationers', to commemorate his time as Master of the 'Stationers' Company' from 1922 to 1923. For use at members banquets and prestigious occasions, hosted within the historic 'Stationers' Hall', Ave Maria Lane, in the City of London. It would either be placed in front of the Master on the top table, or clearly exhibited during ceremonial occasions and Court meetings.Henceforth held at 'Stationers' Hall' since 1924, up until the present day.Introduction to the 'Stationers' Company'The 'Worshipful Company of Stationers' and Newspaper Makers', also known as the 'Stationers' Company', has represented publishing and communications professionals since 1403. Originally formed to represent members of a manuscript-based book trade, the 'Stationers' Company' rose to prominence with Caxton's introduction of the printing press to England in 1476. As the subversive potential of this new technology was recognised, successive English governments during the turbulent sixteenth and seventeenth centuries enlisted the Stationers' help in regulating the press, making the Company a dominant force in the publishing landscape for some time to come. The Stationers' embraced their position, fully participating in the pomp and pageantry of the City of London. Rebuilt in the 1670s on its original foundations after the Fire of London ravished its medieval structure, 'Stationers' Hall' is a testament to the Company's rich social and cultural life over the centuries. Today the headquarters of a vibrant professional membership organisation, in the Hall's fabric, fittings and fixtures are inscribed the history of a London Livery Company where tradition and innovation have always gone hand in hand. Lot ResearchThis is the present full armorial of the 'Worshipful Company of Stationers' and Newspaper Makers'. Created in 1403 as the 'Worshipful Company of Stationers', this has been their official title since the incorporation of the Newspaper Makers in 1937. The arms were granted in 1557 to the then 'Worshipful Company of Stationers' but without crest and supporters, which should only officially appear after 1951. However the Company did unofficially adopt a crest and supporters from the eighteenth century and crests have been found to appear from 1789, and supporters from 1834. These are useful dating attributes. The Stationers' Company's motto is 'Verbum Domini Manet in Aeternum', Latin for 'The Word of the Lord endures forever'.In terms of the provenance of this piece on offer, Court Orders for 1st December 1925 note: 'Mr Herbert Fitch (Master 1922/23) ... said that when he was Upper Warden the Court on the 4th day of April 1922 resolved on his proposition 'that it is desirable that a Standard Emblem or Device be adopted.'' Consequently, he decided to 'provide and present to the Company a piece of plate embodying the approved design in a permanent and artistic form.' 'The work of art which he asked the Court to accept was of silver gilt and consisted of a pillar and base carrying the Arms and Crest of the Company (which were shown in enamels of correct Heraldic colours) flanked on either side by the angels which had been the supporters for over 100 years.''That the Court of Assistants do offer to Mr Herbert Fitch their most cordial thanks for his unique and valuable gift.'Herbert Fitch (1849-1933) established a respected printing business on Bury Street, in the City of London. In 1922 he received the honour of being elected as Master of the 'Stationers' Company', and was also an esteemed member of Lloyds. After a full life, he passed away at the age of 84 and was duly buried at Brompton Cemetery. As a wealthy business owner, his life was commemorated with a Grade 2 listed tomb made of Portland Stone and green marble columns. Over time, his wife Jeannie and their three sons were laid to rest with him. His son, also named Herbert, was a member of Special Branch Police and his memoirs detail how he listened to a secret meeting by Lenin and his comrades, whilst hiding in a pub cupboard.Literature'Stationers' Hall' Court records, accessed via the Stationers' Company archivist.Friends of Brompton Cemetery,'Tomb of Herbert Fitch', accessed 26/10/23 via https://brompton-cemetary.org.ukFor further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Bezeichnung: Signiert und datiert rechts mittig: LOVIS CORINTH 1910. Rahmen/Sockel: Modellrahmen. Provenienz:- Dr. Pater, Königsberg- Stadträtin Lemmel, Königsberg- Dr. A.

Nicolai, Berlin (Aufkleberfragment)- Galerie Franz Brutscher, München- Galerie Aenne Abels, Köln (Aufkleberfragment)- Privatsammlung Ausstellungen:- Kunstsammlung Stadt Königsberg, 1924- Galerie Aenne Abels, Köln 1956 Literatur: - Berend-Corinth, Charlotte: Lovis Corinth - Die Gemälde, Werkverzeichnis, neu bearbeitet von Béatrice Hernad, München 1992 (2. Aufl.), WVZ.-Nr. 440, Abb.Drei Metall-Gegenstände hat Lovis Corinth hier auf einem Tisch arrangiert. Sie geben dem Stillleben den Namen. Eine Messingkanne, ein glänzend aufpolierter Zinntopf mit Deckel und eine bronzene Figur bilden den Dreiklang, mit dem der Maler sich selbst herausforderte und mit dem er seine virtuosen Fähigkeiten unter Beweis stellte. Ergänzt werden diese Drei durch die ebenfalls harte, durch den Prismenschliff aber ganz anders das Licht reflektierende, blaue Bleikristall-Vase mit zwei üppigen, hellrosa-farbenen, großblütigen Chrysanthemen. Eine ockergelbe Wand schließt den Innenraum, in dem sich dieses Arrangement befindet, in der Tiefe ab. Andere Elemente im Hintergrund sind nur vage angedeutet. Ihre Farbwerte sind für die Komposition wichtig, sie lenken aber nicht von der Konzentration auf den Vordergrund ab.Die Lichtquelle, die das Arrangement in ein warmes Licht taucht, liegt schräg rechts, außerhalb des Bildraums. Mit kühnen Pinselstrichen modelliert Corinth die glänzenden Gefäße. Die Farben Rot, Braun, Gelb und Weiß, pastos und additiv aufgetragen, ergeben das brillante Messing, in dem sich die bronzene Figur spiegelt. Das kühle Blau, Schwarz, Weiß und graue Mischtöne nutzt er für das Zinngefäß, wobei sich auch hier Reflektionen der rotbraunen Tischplatte in der Wandung spiegeln. Ganz anders gibt Corinth die optische und haptische Beschaffenheit der Bronze wider. Es gibt hellere Partien, mit mehr Grün-Anteil, sparsam mit Weiß und Gelb gehöht und dunklere, schwärzliche Bereiche, die dem Licht abgewandt sind. Ein starker Schattenwurf auf dem Sockel markiert den Lichteinfall deutlich. Die obere Bildhälfte dominieren die beiden fedrigen Blütenköpfe, die wie ein Feuerwerk das Licht bündeln.Die wie zufällig auf dem Tisch versammelten Objekte haben als Gesamtkomposition eine ungemein starke Präsenz. Sie berühren jeweils fast die Grenzen des Bildraums; ganz nah hat der Künstler den Bildausschnitt gewählt, ein minimaler Farbraum trennt die Objekte von der Realität außerhalb des Bildes.Dieses eindrucksvolle Stillleben malte Lovis Corinth 1910, auf dem Zenit seines Ruhms. Der Sohn eines gutbürgerlichen Gerberei- und Landwirtschafts-Unternehmers aus der Ostpreußischen Provinz hatte in Königsberg, München, Antwerpen und Paris die bestmögliche künstlerische Ausbildung genossen. Nach einer ersten Phase in Berlin, Ende der 1880er Jahre, ließ Corinth sich zunächst in München nieder. Dort geriet er jedoch mehr und mehr in die Flügelkämpfe des Kunstbetriebes. Und Berlin zog ihn an. Dort zeigte er seit Anfang der 1890er Jahre erfolgreiche Ausstellungen in den Galerien Fritz Gurlitts und Eduard Schultes. Sein Freund Walter Leistikow vermittelten ihm einträgliche Portrait-Aufträge der Berliner Gesellschaft und 1901 übersiedelte Corinth endgültig in die Reichshauptstadt. Im selben Jahr stellte er in der Galerie Paul Cassirers aus und wurde Mitglied der Berliner Sezession, bald schon deren Vorstandsmitglied. Die Zusammenarbeit mit Paul Cassirer gestaltete sich besonders erfolgreich. Zum einen vermittelte der Galerist und Verleger Ausstellungen Corinths in andere deutsche Städte, zum anderen verkaufte er fertige Bilder des gefeierten Meisters direkt aus dem Atelier. In Paul Cassirers Galerie begegnete Corinth aber auch den Arbeiten von Cezanne und Manet, die ihn begeisterten. In seiner Pariser Zeit waren die modernen impressionistischen Strömungen von dem jungen Kunststudenten noch nicht wahrgenommen worden.Heute wird Lovis Corinths Kunst gerne mit dem Etikett des Spät-Impressionismus versehen. Tatsächlich sah er selbst seine Wurzeln als kraftvoll die Form auflösender Kolorist aber eher in seiner Auseinandersetzung mit den "Alten Meistern" des 17. Jahrhunderts, mit Rubens, Rembrandt und vor allem Frans Hals: "Der Frans Hals hat genauso gemalt, der Kerl, wie ich. Ich brauche mich gar nicht zu verstellen" schrieb er 1907 an seine Frau. (in: Brief Lovis Corinth an Charlotte Berend-Corinth, 7.9.1907, zitiert nach: (in: Brief Lovis Corinth an Charlotte Berend-Corinth, 7.9.1907, zitiert nach: Ausst.-Kat. Lovis Corinth und die Moderne, Musée d'Orsay, Paris/Museum der bildenden Künste, Leipzig/Kunstforum Ostdeutsche Galerie, Regensburg, Bielefeld 2008, S. 35).)Ein großer Unterschied zu den Impressionisten ist allerdings, dass Lovis Corinth immer auch Historienmaler war. Mythologische, antike oder christliche Geschichten setzte er nicht überhöht, sondern naturalistisch mit seinem flirrend kraftvollen Pinselduktus in Szene. Dabei waren die Gestalten von Bacchus und seinem Gefolge für Corinth ein immer wieder bearbeitetes Thema. Im Gott des Weines und des Rauschs sah Corinth wohl auch sein "alter Ego"; mehrfach hat er sich selbst als Bacchus portraitiert.Die bacchantische Seite Corinths, des unangepassten Normensprengers, findet sich auch in diesem Gemälde. Denn bei der Statuette handelt es sich um die Bronze-Replik eines antiken, ein Öllicht tragenden Silens, der in Pompeji gefunden wurde (Foto). In mindestens zwei weiteren Stillleben hat Lovis Corinth diese Leuchter-Figur verwendet, die für ihn vermutlich eine spezielle Bedeutung hatte. Dieses Stillleben mit seinem teils eruptiven Pinselduktus ist ein deutlicher Beleg für die Bedeutung, die Lovis Corinth für die moderne gegenständliche Malerei in Deutschland hat.

After Frédéric Bazille,  French 1841-1870- Young woman with peonies; oil on canvas, signed and dated 'Bruce Graham Clarke [?] apres E. Bazille. '89.' (lower left), 45.5 x 53.4 cm. Provenance:  Private Collection, UK. Note:  The present work is a copy after Bazille's painting which is housed in the collection of the Fabre Museum in Montpellier [18.1.3], whilst another, very similar, version is held by the National Gallery of Art in Washington [1983.1.6]. Bazille painted both of these paintings in the summer of 1870, just months before the outbreak of the Franco-Prussian War, in which Bazille was killed. His depiction of peonies, and the style in which he paints them, has been understood as a nod towards his close friend Édouard Manet (1832-1883), who cultivated peonies, using them for a series of still life compositions in 1864-65.

Henri-Théodore Fantin-Latour,  French 1836-1904- L'Aurore chassant la Nuit; oil on canvas, signed 'Fantin' (lower left), 66 x 81.8 cm. Provenance:  Gustave Tempelaere, Paris.  Alex Reid, Glasgow.  Trust of the late Dr William Boyd, LLd of Dundee, Sotheby's, London, 29 November 1967, lot 208.  Acquired at the above sale by Arthur Tooth & Son, London.  Anon. sale, Christie's, London, 16 November 2006, lot 11.  Private Collection, UK (by descent). Literature:  Madame Fantin-Latour, 'Catalogue de l'Oeuvre de Henri Fantin-Latour', Paris, 1911, p.224, no.2126. Note:  The authenticity of this work has been confirmed by Madame Sylvie Brame. Fantin-Latour first studied with his father, the artist Théodore Fantin-Latour (1805-1872/5), before enrolling at the École des Beaux-Arts in 1854, where his classmates included Edgar Degas (1834-1917), Alphonse Legros (1837-1911) and Jean-Charles Cazin (1840-1901). Despite his own work being stylistically distinct from that of the Impressionists, Fantin-Latour was closely associated with central figures from the Impressionist movement, exhibiting with Édouard Manet (1832-1883), Pierre-Auguste Renoir (1841-1919), and Claude Monet (1840-1926).  Fantin-Latour produced a number of expressive mythological and allegorical scenes such as the present work, which depicts 'Dawn chasing away the night'. These paintings are distinguished by their loose brushwork, which imparts them with a striking sense of dreaminess befitting their subjects. Fantin-Latour treated the subject of 'L'Aurore' on multiple occasions, including in a slightly smaller composition which sold recently at Christie's, London, on 15 July 2021 (lot 15). The present work was painted in 1904.

Norbert Goeneutte,  French 1854-1894- A seated man, wearing a red hat and white apron, holding a pitcher and glass; oil on panel, signed 'Norbert Goeneutte' (lower left), 22.1 x 16 cm. Provenance:  with Gimpel Fils, London, since 1950s (purchased from 'Hellebrank'). Note:  We are grateful to Christophe Duvivier for confirming the authenticity of the present lot.  Goeneutte's success was consistent throughout his short life and his work took him beyond Paris to London, Venice and Rotterdam. His talents as a printmaker and illustrator are particularly celebrated, most notably his illustrations for 'La Terre' by Emile Zola. Born in Paris, he studied under Isidore Pils (1815-1875) at the École des Beaux-Arts in the early 1870s. Following Pils's death in 1875, and the appointment of an unpopular teacher Henri Lehmann (1814-1884), Êdouard Manet (1832-1883) was asked to take over. Manet declined - although in time Goeneutte clearly came to be influenced by his work - and Goeneutte left to set up his own studio.

Abb.Diese imposante Ansicht von Morsalines wurde 1882 im Pariser Salon ausgestellt, jenem Jahr, in dem Antoine Guillemet auch Mitglied der Jury des Salons war (und Paul Cézanne zu einer Ausstellungsbeteiligung verhalf). Guillemet erlernte die Landschaftsmalerei bei Jean-Baptiste Corot, den er 1861 kennenlernte, zu Beginn der 1880er Jahre zählte er zu den etablierten Landschaftsmalern in Frankreich, wovon neben der Ernennung zum Jurymitglied des Salons die Aufnahme in die Ehrenlegion (1880) zeugt. Der Künstler war mit den Impressionisten und deren Fürsprechern eng befreundet, insbesondere mit Émile Zola, Claude Monet, Berthe Morisot und Édouard Manet. Letzterer verewigte Guillemet gemeinsam mit Berthe Morisot und der Geigerin Fanny Claus in seinem berühmten Gemälde Le Balcon (vgl. Abb. 1; Paris, Musée d´Orsay). Morsalines liegt in der Normandie, im Département Manche auf der Halbinsel Contentin am Ärmelkanal. Antoine Guillemet hat das kleine Fischerdorf, ebenso wie das benachbarte Saint-Vaast-La-Hougue immer wieder gemalt. Vor allem in den 1880er und -90er Jahren zeigte er Landschaften mit der Darstellung dieser Orte im Pariser Salon (u.a. 1881, 1882,1886, 1887, 1890, 1893, 1895, 1900).Abb. 1/Ill. 1: Édouard Manet, Le balcon, Musée d´Orsay, Paris © bpk | RMN - Grand Palais | Hervé Lewandowski

Her father, a native of Frankfurt, ran the Amsterdam bank Becker & Fuld together with Carl Becker, which maintained close ties with the Rothschild Bank in Frankfurt. According to a list from 1913, the family was one of the wealthiest families in Germany. The family's town house on Pariser Platz was furnished in a manner befitting its status and contained a constantly growing art collection, which was later to include paintings by van Gogh, Picasso, Gauguin, but also by French Impressionists such as Manet and Monet, which belonged to her daughter Marie-Anne von Goldschmidt-Rothschild. Milly's husband, Fritz von Friedländer-Fuld was known for his collection of gold and silver objects, such as rare boxes, nécessaires, flacons and watches, parts of which he had exhibited in Berlin in 1906. The present lot was loaned by Milly von Friedländer-Fuld and exhibited in the seminal Chinesische Kunst exhibition of 1929 in Berlin. This exhibition was amongst the first major exhibitions of Chinese art in Europe. It included 1270 works of art, on loan from some of the greatest museums such as the Asian Art Museum in Berlin, the Louvre and Guimet in Paris, the Rijksmsueum in Amsterdam, the National Museum in Stockholm, as well from some of the leading collectors and dealers such Adoplhe Stoclet, George Eumorfopoulos and C.T. Loo, to name a few. After her husband's death in 1917, Milly Antonie von Friedländer-Fuld initially moved to the Netherlands and France. However, the palace and its inventory remained in the family and was used by her as well as her daughter Marie-Anne von Goldschmidt-Rothschild and her family, who still resided there in June 1938. Following Hitler's rise to power, the palace was forcibly sold to Albert Speer, on behalf of the German Reich, and much of the family's property was seized. In August 1939 ten trucks left Berlin with inventory and art objects to Amsterdam for storage at De Gruyter & Co. - likely also including the present lot. These were later seized as well and similarly to the fate of the objects in Palais Friedländer in Berlin, were sold at auction between 1941 and 1942. After the occupation of the Netherlands by the Germans, Milly Antonie von Friedländer-Fuld fled to France, and died in Cannes in 1943. The jade mythical beast which was sold in The Hague at Marle & Bignell in October 1941 to a Dutch dealer, made its way to the UK and sold through London dealers Spink & Son and Bluett's & Sons to a British collector. It is now sold with the agreement of the British collector's family and the heirs of Milly Antonie von Friedländer-Fuld.The present lot is remarkable for its extremely large size (32cm long) and weight (8.55kg) and anthropomorphic face. Large jade animal carvings include both animals and mythical beasts; the former such as water buffaloes, horses and elephants and the latter, mythical creatures such as Buddhist lions, qilin and luduan. See for example S.C.Nott, Chinese Jade Throughout the Ages, London, 1975, pls.241, 391, 392, 394, 395 and 397. See also a pale green and russet jade carving of a bixie, Ming dynasty, with closely related humanoid face, which was sold at Bonhams London, 17 May 2012, lot 25.It is extremely rare to find animals and beasts of such striking size, and although widely published and much admired, exceptionally large jade animals such as the present lot, in fact, form a very select and unusual group within the tradition of Chinese jade carving. Usually carved with great sensitivity and naturalness, such pieces have been traditionally dated to the late Ming to early Qing period, based upon a number of factors: the similar mid-green or occasionally greyish colour of the pieces suggest that they were sourced before the quelling of Xinjiang in 1759 gave access to fine and large raw jades sent in as tribute from the new vassal region. See a large jade figure of a horse, late Ming/early Qing dynasty, illustrated by J.Rawson, Chinese Jade from the Neolithic to the Qing, London, 1995, pl.26:20, and also a large jade buffalo, late Ming or Qing dynasty, illustrated in Ibid, pl.26:19.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

VITTORIO MATTEO CORCOS (ITALIAN 1859 - 1933) PORTRAIT OF A GIRL IN A YELLOW SHAWL Oil on canvas Signed and dated '90' (upper right) 60.5 x 46cm (23¾ x 18 in.) Provenance: Sale, Bonhams, Fine 19th Century European Paintings, 20 November 1997, lot 90 Sale, Sotheby's, 19th Century European Art, 29 October 2002, lot 73 The Collection of The Bowerman Charitable Trust The Jewish community of the Tuscan seaport of Livorno produced two notable artists whose lives spanned the 19th and 20th centuries: Vittorio Corcos and Amadeo Modigliani. Corcos enjoyed a long and prosperous career, dying at the age of 74 in 1933. Modigliani struggled to sell his work and died little-known at the age of 35 in 1920. Modigliani is now one of the most famous artists of the 20th century and Corcos, at least outside Italy, is best remembered for his rather conventional society and royal portraits, however there has been a renewed interest in the artist over the last ten years or so, due in part to the 2014 at the Palazzo Zabarella in Padua, 'Corcos: Dreams of the Belle Epoque'. The show included more than 100 works by the artist, 27 of which were shown publicly for the first time. Eighteen works in the show had not been exhibited for more than half a century, demonstrating beyond doubt that Corcos produced some breathtakingly beautiful and idiosyncratic images, of which Portrait of a girl in a yellow shawl is one of these remarkable works. Like many boys born to patriotic Italian families in 1859, Vittorio owned his name to the triumph of Victor Emmanuel II and his French allies over the Austrian occupiers of northern Italy in the Second Italian War of Independence. Vittorio was a naturally gifted artist and at the age of sixteen was admitted directly into the second year at Florence's Academia di Belle Arti. Two years later, with monies raised by the people of his hometown, the young artist moved on to Naples, where he studied with Domenico Morelli. In 1880, the purchase of one of Corcos' pictures by King Umberto I, provided him the necessary funds to make the essential journey to Paris. Upon arriving in Paris, Corcos immediately introduced himself to Giuseppe de Nittis, who along with Giovanni Boldini, was the most successful Italian artist to relocate in Paris. At de Nittis' salon, the young Corcos was introduced to Degas, Manet, Caillebotte, and Daudet along with many other leading artistic figures of fin-de-siècle Paris. De Nittis was also instrumental in introducing Corcos to the Maison Goupil. Corcos signed a contract with the French dealers which relieved him of all financial concerns, and he continued to supply Goupil with pictures even after his return to Italy in 1886. In the meantime, Corcos became increasingly in demand as a portrait painter, painting portraits of Mussolini, Puccini, and Queen Amelie of Portugal among others.A self-portrait of the artist can be seen in the Uffizi Gallery, Florence. Condition Report: The canvas has not been lined. Stretcher marks visible. Some surface cracking. Inspection under UV reveals some retouching, largely to the background areas. There is a green cloudy varnish which may be concealing further overpaint. Overall, the work appears to be in good condition commensurate with age, and ready to hang. Condition Report Disclaimer

As I recall, this picture was offered as security on a loan (of £5, I believe) at the time in the early 1950s when we were both students in Whitley Bay.

While there, he exhibited regularly at the Salon d'Automne, and was included in the infamous Armory Show of Modern Art in New York, alongside Picasso, Matisse, Duchamp, and others. In the same year, he held a one-man show at the Bernheim Jeune gallery in Paris, and in Dublin in 1914 an important exhibition of his work was closed down on the eve of its opening due to the opposition at the Catholic Church to numerous studies of nudes included in it.
