Pierre Ambrogiani (1907 - 1985) ‘Bouquet in Bloom’ 29” x 20” Oil on Canvas Signed

This piece is alive with colour, movement and richly applied paint. Bold impasto brushwork brings energy and texture to the bouquet, while the striking contrast between the luminous flowers and dark background creates a dramatic visual presence.

Decorative yet sophisticated.

Pierre Ambrogiani (1907 - 1985) ‘Bouquet on Gueridon Table’ 32” x 25.5” Oil on Canvas Signed

A richly textured and highly expressive still life, built with thick, sculptural layers of paint. Ambrogiani’s confident palette-knife work creates remarkable depth and movement, balancing abstraction with recognisable floral forms. Both intimate and dramatically visually engaging.

William Scott (1913 - 1989) ‘Red Still Life’ 15.5” x 19.5” Oil on Canvas Signed

Literature: ‘The Paintings of William Scott, ARTS vol. 31, no.2, November 1956, p. 38, illustrated in black-and-white (dated 1954) Provenance: The vendor’s grandfather, Dick Russell (younger brother to the furniture designer Gordon), met Ted Power when he was chairman of Murphy Radio.

In the 1930s Ted had asked Dick to design their radio casings. Thereafter becoming good friends, Ted hired Dick to design the interior of his flat in Grosvenor Square, London.

Ted had a keen interest in paintings, one of his first purchases was a work by Alfred Sisley, which he bought very reasonably and later sold on for a far greater sum. He went on to build an impressive art collection to include works by; Mark Rothko, Jackson Pollock and Nicolas de Staël among others.

The vendor’s father, aunt and uncle, on each turning 21, were invited to Ted’s flat to select a painting as a birthday present. The vendor’s father received an Oskar Kokoschka, and the aunt, as the oldest and only girl, was gifted this work by William Scott “Red Still Life, 1953/54” in the summer of 1960. The painting has been lovingly looked after and protected under glass ever since.

Eugene ‘Gen’ Paul (1895 - 1975) ‘The Waltz’ 35” x 45.5” Oil on Canvas Signed

16

A lively and highly spontaneous composition, this work captures the artist’s unmistakable sense of movement and joie de vivre. Loosely defined figures emerge through gestural brushwork, giving the painting an effortless rhythm and modern vitality. Both playful and sophisticated, the work perfectly reflects Paul’s expressive style and his celebrated ability to fuse figuration with abstraction.

Nanno de Groot (1913 - 1963) ‘The Nude’ 30” x 23” Oil on Canvas Signed

A beautifully restrained and atmospheric composition, this nude by Nanno de Groot demonstrates the artist’s celebrated ability to distil form into simplified, elegant shapes. Rendered in a warm palette of ochres, creams and soft greens, the figure is constructed through richly textured, painterly surfaces that give the work both intimacy and sophistication.
