Lot 68

Diego Quispe Tito (Cuzco, Peru, 1611 - 1681)"The Annunciation"Oil on canvas. It has lacks of painting.157 x 218,5 cm.Provenance: this lot is the couple of lot 81 from the auction, "Beauty and Devotion. Picasso between the Old and New World", 25th of April, 2024. A palace-house of an Andalusian marquisate, a Spanish noble family whose lineage dates back to the 12th century.Specifically, our painting was placed next to its partner, "The Holy Family in the workshop of Nazareth".It is obvious that these two pieces were a pair, because the model used to portray Mary is the same in both paintings, as well as the basket with clothes that we find centering the scene is the same in both paintings.As we read in the Real Academia de la Historia Quispe Tito "Member of a family of the Inca aristocracy, is considered among the main initiators of the Cuzco school for painting. He apparently came from the indigenous village of San Sebastián, which houses a significant part of his production. It is centred on the decorative works for the parish church in that town, for which he worked intensively between 1634 and 1669. During those years he produced four large pictorial cycles: Life of Saint John the Baptist, The Passion, Martyrdom of Saint Sebastian and The Doctors of the Church.These groups of canvasses summarise Quispe Tito's original maturity, characterised by an ingenious reinterpretation of European prints and by a precise, agile brushstroke with lively colours.His fame soon spread beyond the confines of Cuzco, and in 1667 he was commissioned by the churches of Potosí to paint Jesus among the Doctors of the Temple and The Betrothal of the Virgin, both of which are now in the Museo de la Casa de Moneda of that city.In the Inca capital itself, Quispe Tito's most ambitious work is the canvas of The Last Things or the Last Judgement, painted for the porter's lodge of the Convent of San Francisco in 1675.Here the Andean painter abandoned the dynamic formulas for depicting the Last Judgement, in force until the High Renaissance and early Baroque periods in Europe, to return to the ordered scheme, in the form of successive The Holy Family Returning from Egypt (National Museum of History), dated 1680, displays the virtuosity characteristic of his later works. Here the painter based himself on a widespread composition by Rubens, but Quispe Tito considerably reduced the proportion of the figures in relation to the background in order to place the scene of the sacred story within a vast idealised and fantastic landscape, thus heralding the emergence of one of the favourite genres of painting in Cuzco in the following century. At the same time he executed the well-known series of the zodiac, hung on the walls of the side naves of the Cathedral of Cuzco. Today only nine of the twelve signs exist, either because three of them were destroyed or because the artist died before completing the commission.It is a Christianised cycle, in which each of the zodiacal signs is identified with a parable of Christ or a Gospel story. In this case Quispe literally follows his Flemish graphic sources, while at the same time displaying a European-inspired pictorial craft, the high technical level of which is unsurpassed in the Cuzco context.In this way the artist, in the last stage of his life, seemed to adapt his work to the aesthetic preferences of a cultured, urban clientele, which may have attracted the attention of Bishop Mollinedo and his cathedral chapter.Bibliographic reference:- Wuffarden, Luis Eduardo.

*AURELIO DE FELICE (1915-1996) 'Battaglia di Ragazzi', (Battle of the Boys), 1941, bas-relief panel, bronze, 100cm x 160cm, Note: This work is represented in the permanent collection of the Museo Aurelio De Felice, Terni, Umbria, Italy.De Felice was born in Torre Orsina, a small town on the hills around Terni. Of humble origins, he began his studies in contrast with his family at the Scuola Romana in the 1930s. He earned a degree at the Academy of Fine Arts of Rome, becoming a professor there. De Felice alternated lessons and artistic activity with many personal exhibitions. The most important in that period was the one in the Gallery of Rome, introduced by Renato Guttuso.At the end of the Second World War, De Felice started to travel across Europe. In those years he exhibited in Switzerland, Germany and France, where he created, in Paris, on behalf of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the School of Italian Art. There he met Pablo Picasso, Fernand Léger, Jean Cocteau, Kees van Dongen, Ossip Zadkine, Mark Tobey and Constantin Brâncuși. He did not allow himself to be involved in the big debate between realism and formalism in the 1950s, continuing on his own road.In 1961 De Felice created the Institute of Arts in Terni. In those years he continued to exhibit all over Europe (Italy, Germany, Switzerland, France). In 1967 he was in charge of the Italian Institute of Culture in Hamburg and the Center of Italian Studies in Zurich.In 1977 he was invited to the National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo, for a conference on Orneore Metelli, a "painter-shoemaker" from Terni, and father of the Naïve Italian movement, whose art had become famous thanks to De Felice's work.His last exhibition took place in 1982; after that, disease forced the sculptor to limit his activity. He spent the last years of his life in the quiet of his house on the hills of Torre Orsina, where he died on June 14, 1996.The celebrated Italian artist and politician Renato Guttuso (1911-1987) commented on the impact of the work offered here, in a letter to De Felice, remarking "I remember a work of yours from that time, a relief, which was your contribution to the approach of the two directions of research. The relief represents a battle. But a battle of boys. You had found the only possible poetic key (not heroic) to depict a battle! Even today, after twenty years, thirty years, reviewing your work, following its path, observing the changes, I find the same emotion in looking at your sculptures".

λ&nbspMARIE LAURENCIN (FRENCH 1883-1956) L'ESPAGNOLE Oil on paper laid to canvas, oval Signed (lower right) 53 x 43cm (20¾ x 16¾ in.)Provenance: Peter Meltzer, Canada, Private Collection, where purchased by Count Manfredi della Gherardesca Exhibited: Toronto, Art Gallery of Ontario, on loan in memory of Elise and David Meltzer, 1979 Literature: Daniel Marchesseau, Catalogue raisonne de L'oeuvre peint, Volume II, Paris, 1999, no. 1362 Marie Laurencin's exposure to avant-garde movements at the turn of the 20th century in Paris were integral to her artistic development and heavily influenced her journey to find her unique and distinctive style. Her relationship with the poet Guillaume Apollinaire and introduction to Georges Braque, Pablo Picasso and important figures of l'ecole de Paris introduced Laurencin to artistic movements such as Cubism and Fauvism. Laurencin rose to prominence in Paris as a notable figure within the Cubist group and exhibited with the Section d'Or at the Salon des Independents in 1910-11. Following this, Laurencin was represented by Paul Rosenberg from 1913-1940.  Despite this, Laurencin remained on the periphery of Cubism and Fauvism borrowing elements of stylisation such as simplified lines and segmenting the subject into planes of colour and shapes but with her own interpretation and approach, the image remained realistic and immediately familiar. Her dreamlike colour palettes became integral to her work and this contrasted with piercing eyes conjures an emotional response, melancholic and erotic.  Marie Laurencin's ethereal female figure of a Spanish lady fills the oval composition. Her elongated face is balanced by the dramatic head piece which drapes across her forehead. The viewer is immediately struck by the jet-black eyes which penetrate through the canvas. Laurencin has used her distinctive colour palette of muted colours, blue, pink and pastel tones juxtaposed against the bold black lines which appear to represent the figure's mantilla held high upon the head traditionally by a peineta. Laurencin was exiled to Spanish with her husband at the start of the First World War until 1919, it is possible that this period inspired the present lot.  By 1920, Laurencin settled back in Paris and rose to prominence as an established portrait painter and illustrator. The strong female figures which sat at the heart of her subject matter were also the driving force behind her art. Laurencin strove to promote creativity and artistic endeavours amongst women in a male dominated society. Laurencin supported the Société des Femmes Artistes Modernes and exhibited with the group on several occasions between 1931-1938.  The Marie Laurencin Museum was opened in Japan in 1983 becoming the first museum in the world dedicated to a female painter. Condition Report: Oil on paper laid to canvas. Evidence of old craquelure visible to the headdress and background. Ultraviolet light reveals infilling to the craquelure in addition to scattered spots of retouching throughout. Condition Report Disclaimer

λ&nbspHERMENEGILDO ANGLADA CAMARASA (SPANISH 1871-1959) SOLA EN EL PALCO - 'ALONE IN THE BOX' Oil on panel Signed 'H. Anglada Camarasa' (lower right) 32 x 34cm (12½ x 13¼ in.) Painted in 1911- circa 1952. Provenance: Mir Amorós, Barcelona (by 1981) with Galeria Manel Mayoral, Barcelona where purchased by the present owner in 1997 Literature: F. Fontbona and F. Miralles, Anglada-Camarasa, Barcelona, 1981, p. 298, no. G12 as Proyecto para un retrato Exhibitions: Barcelona, La Pinoteca, H. Anglada Camarasa, June 1952, as Proyecto para un retratoAfter training in Barcelona, the Catalan painter Hermenegildo Anglada-Camarasa, moved to Paris in 1894 where he attended the Académie Julian. He painted numerous pictures of Parisian night-life, concentrating on pallet and light effects. His paintings were visibly influenced by Toulouse Lautrec, Gustav Klimt and Kees van Dongen. A significant turning point in his style came in 1909, with the arrival in Paris of impresario Sergei Diaghilev's Ballets Russes, featuring Vaslav Nijinski and Anna Pavlova. They became a social and artistic sensation that revolutionised both tastes and customs. Camarasa was deeply moved by the sets and costumes of vibrant oranges, purples and greens, to the extent that from then on the pale shades in his female portraits were replaced by brilliant multicolours. His influence also reached young artists like Pablo Picasso, ten years younger than him and with whom he was in contact during his stay in Montmartre, or María Blanchard, who was his student between 1908 and 1913.The present lot is accompanied by a certificate from F. Fontbona and F. Miralles dated 24 February 1998, no. 403.    Condition Report: Some light craquelure throughout however the paint surface appears stable. Rubbing and abrasions to the framing edges with some associated paint loss and subsequent retouching along the upper edge (this is visible in a natural light). One or two superficial surface scratches and spots of surface dirt throughout. There is a black line running diagonally above the sitter's right shoulder however this appears to be original to the work rather than a condition issue. Inspection under UV light reveals some patches of retouching throughout; these are largely contained to the sitter's nose, right arm, and along the upper framing edge. Condition Report Disclaimer

Y After Georges Braque (French, 1882-1963)Derniers Messages, 1963 or 1967Lithograph on in 6 colours on Arches watermarked paperMounted, framed & glazed With Innocent Fine Art, Bristol label to back Georges Braque (French, 1882-1963) was a major 20th-century French painter, collagist, draughtsman, printmaker and sculptor. His most notable contributions were in his alliance with Fauvism from 1905, and the role he played in the development of Cubism. Braque's work between 1908 and 1912 is closely associated with that of his colleague Pablo Picasso. Their respective Cubist works were indistinguishable for many years, yet the quiet nature of Braque was partially eclipsed by the fame and notoriety of Picasso.Measures approx. 61cm x 45cm (24" x 17.5")
