This exceptional early Renaissance Spanish School sculpture of the Madonna and Child in Majesty is a superb example of polychrome and gilded wood carving from the 14th to 15th century, likely originating from Castile or Aragon. Retaining much of its original polychromy, this remarkable piece embodies the transition from the Romanesque tradition to the more refined Gothic and early Renaissance styles that shaped Spanish religious art. The Virgin Mary, enthroned and crowned as the Queen of Heaven, holds an apple, symbolizing her role as the New Eve and the redemption of humankind. The Christ Child sits upon her lap, presenting the Holy Book while raising His hand in a traditional gesture of blessing, reinforcing the sacred bond between mother and son in Christian iconography.This sculpture illustrates the stylistic evolution occurring in Spain during this period, bridging the sacred formality of the Romanesque with the increasing expressiveness of Gothic and early Renaissance art. In earlier Romanesque traditions, religious figures were depicted with rigid, hieratic forms, emphasizing divine authority over naturalism. In contrast, this sculpture moves toward Gothic sensibilities, evident in the Virgin's more individualized and serene expression, the subtle modeling of her facial features, and the graceful articulation of drapery folds.The Christ Child also displays a departure from rigid formality. While still slightly stylized, His raised blessing hand and delicate gestures suggest a move away from the static, miniature-adult depictions of earlier periods toward a more naturalistic portrayal. The throne upon which the Madonna sits, adorned with geometric and floral motifs, incorporates elements of Hispano-Moorish artistic influence, reflecting the unique synthesis of Christian and Islamic design elements that flourished in Castile and Aragon during the Gothic period. The sculpture's polychrome and gilding further reinforce this transitional quality, particularly in its use of the estofado technique, where layers of gold leaf were overpainted and incised to reveal intricate patterns. This decorative approach, associated with later Gothic and early Renaissance Spanish sculpture, highlights the increasing technical and artistic sophistication of Spanish woodcarving workshops.The broader historical context of this work aligns with Spain's evolving artistic landscape during the late Middle Ages. Unlike Italy, where classical marble statuary became dominant, Spain remained deeply committed to intricately carved and lavishly painted wooden sculptures, emphasizing their sacred presence within churches and religious institutions. Devotional imagery such as this Madonna and Child in Majesty served as a focal point for worship, reinforcing the theological role of the Virgin as the intercessor between humanity and Christ. By the 14th and 15th centuries, Spanish sculptors had absorbed Gothic influences from France and the Low Countries, particularly through Burgundian and Flemish artists, leading to a synthesis of styles that maintained Gothic verticality while introducing more naturalistic facial expressions and drapery treatments.Issued: Circa 15th centuryDimensions: 16"L x 10"W x 40"HCountry of Origin: SpainProvenance: John and Johanna Bass Collection, New York, NY; Bass Museum of Art, Miami Beach, FL, 1963.

ANTON VAN WOUW (DUTCH / SOUTH AFRICAN 1862-1945) THE MEALIEPAP EATER bronze, medium brown patina, signed 'A. Van Wouw/ S.A_Joh-burg' and inscribed 'Foundry, G. Massa, Roma, mounted on a rectangular variegated purple marble base 29cm wide, 16cm high, 24cm deep Provenance: The Maisels Collection Note: Anton Van Wouw is known for his depictions of the indigenous people of South Africa and has been described as ‘the sculptor of national life’.  Van Wouw was born in Driebergen, Holland in 1862.  He studied at the Rotterdam Academy for Arts before moving to Pretoria in South Africa in 1890 and then to Johannesburg in 1906.  Some of his finest work can be found in his portrayals of indigenous peoples, such as migrant workers from the Shangaan tribe in Mozambique, who worked in harsh and dangerous conditions in the gold mines of Transvaal.  ‘The Mealiepap Eater’ depicts a Shangaan man eating mealiepap from a traditional pot with three legs.  The model for this work is also the subject for his sculpture of a tribesman entitled ‘Shangaan’.   Mealiepap is made from maize meal, a course flour made from maize, to produce porridge or a firmer pap which can be eaten with meat or vegetables. In 1907 Van Wouw received an inheritance from his father enabling him to cast his small bronzes at the Massa and Nisini foundries in Rome.  The present lot is mounted on a separate marble base and this is how  the Italian castings carried out in Van Wouw’s lifetime were presented, while later posthumous castings had an integral bronze base and show the right hand of the boy holding a stick above the pot rather than scraping food from it.For a recent example of ‘The Mealiepap Eater’ sold at auction see Bonhams South African Sale, 12th October 2021, lot 45.

Brian Taylor F.R.B.S F.S.P.S (1935-2013) - Plaster - Bust of the Horse of Selene, on contemporary stand, 34ins x 33ins high Note: A Fellow of the Royal Society of British Sculptors and Vice Principal of the Society of Portrait Sculptors, Brian Taylor was a British sculptor, particularly well regarded for his studies of both human and animal forms. His love of the medium developed steadily in the years to follow, and in 1958 Taylor won a three-year scholarship to study sculpture in Rome. Italy proved to be a great influence on the artist, with both ancient and modernist sculpture fuelling his formative appreciation of sculptural styles, from life-size marble carvings to more modest clay portraits. The artist taught at the Camberwell School of Art between the years of 1965–1984. Horses were of particular interest, the Burano Horse among his most celebrated works, and his other monumental bronze sculptures featuring regularly in both group and solo exhibitions in England and Italy.
