A LOVE AFFAIR WITH RUBY LUSTRE Allan and Sondra Gotlieb as Collectors of William De Morgan Tiles The collecting passions of our parents Allan and Sondra Gotlieb were shaped by a lifetime of deep engagement with art and culture, but their particular devotion to the tiles of William De Morgan had a discernible starting point. It was the 1992–93 exhibition The Earthly Paradise: Arts and Crafts by William Morris and His Circle in Canadian Collections at the Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO) that first sparked Allan Gotlieb’s serious interest in the Arts and Crafts movement and its decorative legacy. From that moment, a focused and passionate collection began to take shape. Our father was well prepared for this enthusiasm. A Rhodes Scholar and, for a time before returning to Canada to join the diplomatic service, an Oxford don, he had long nurtured a love of Victorian art in its many forms as well as French art from the same era. He collected the prints of James Tissot with particular avidity, and was drawn especially to Tissot’s portraits of women. He was also a collector of Victorian drawings, acquiring Burne Jones’s Gates of Gaza in 1962 when he was a diplomat in Geneva. He favoured works by the Pre-Raphaelite artist Simeon Solomon — once again focusing principally on representations of women. For our mother he purchased period jewelry by Giuliano and others which she wore with delight at social events. Yet it was not until 1982, when he retired from his position as Canadian Ambassador to the United States and settled in Toronto that these collecting interests became truly systematic, first in the case of drawings and eventually the tiles of De Morgan. A particularly memorable acquisition came when, browsing in a favourite shop, Richard Dennis on Kensington Church Street during a trip to London, he purchased two ruby lustre tile panels depicting galleon ships. It was ruby lustre, above all, that captivated him. The deep, iridescent warmth of De Morgan’s ruby lustre pieces — a technique revived from medieval Islamic pottery — inspired in him something approaching infatuation. Katharine Lochnan, the AGO’s senior curator emeritus, recalls him giving a talk at a ceramics symposium at the Gardiner Museum in Toronto, which he titled My Love Affair with Ruby Lustre — a title that captured the personal, almost romantic intensity of his engagement with these objects. The tiles were not kept in a single dedicated space but were distributed throughout the Gotlieb Toronto home — installed on walls, displayed on tables and stands — so that encounters with them were constant and often unexpected. For family and visitors alike, navigating the house was something of an adventure, the De Morgan tiles appearing at every turn, sometimes making passage through the rooms a charmingly precarious affair. They also maintained a room informally known as the “opium room,” small, plushly furnished, and atmospherically dim, where Victorian drawings — including works by Solomon and Edward Poynter — were densely hung. Our mother, journalist and humourist Sondra Gotlieb shared his enthusiasm, and was an avid reader of Anthony Trollope’s Barsetshire and Palliser novels. Their Toronto garden, inspired by Sissinghurst, extended the collecting vision outdoors, incorporating tiled architectural features and other Victorian ornamental elements that gave the exterior of the house the same character as the interior. Together, Sondra and Allan created not merely a collection but an environment that celebrated the richness of Victorian and Edwardian British art and design. Marc Gotlieb and Rachel Gotlieb.

WILLIAM DE MORGAN MASTER POTTER

William De Morgan has always occupied a special place in the history of British art pottery. His work is revered today by collectors and, produced over three decades, his tiles, vases and chargers are included in museums and art galleries around the world. Born on the 16th November 1839 in London he was encouraged to pursue a career in the arts by his parents, the distinguished mathematician Augustus De Morgan, and his mother Sophia, an advocate of women’s education and progressive causes. In 1856 he entered the Royal Academy School, London, where he met like-minded artists including Henry Holiday and Simeon Solomon. Holiday introduced him to William Morris in 1863, who is credited with encouraging De Morgan away from a career in painting towards a career in design and craft. Initially, De Morgan supplied designs to Morris, Marshall, Faulkner & Co (The Firm) for the stained glass studio and it is here he developed his lifelong fascination with the shimmer of lustre and surface decoration. His own experiments, on ceramic, and research into the historical lustre production from the Middle East and the Mediterranean led to him leaving The Firm, to set up his first pottery in 1872 in Chelsea making and decorating tiles.

A young William De Morgan.

By 1882, demand for his work had grown to a level necessitating a move to a larger site, and De Morgan moved the pottery to Merton Abbey, close to Morris’ textile workshops. Whilst at Merton Abbey he won a major commission to decorate P&O ocean liners (providing tile panel decoration for over a dozen ships). 1888 saw the final move of the pottery to Fulham, here he is credited with producing some of his finest firings, including the triple lustre tiles of blue, silver and copper oxides. The auction includes of these masterpieces (lots 56-63). Michael Jeffery.

VICTORIAN PAINTINGS AND DRAWINGS SIMEON SOLOMON AND THE PRE-RAPHAELITE BROTHERHOOD The Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood emerged in London in 1848 with a shared vision of luminous beauty in reaction to the rather staid art of their times. Founding members included painters Dante Gabriel Rossetti, William Holman Hunt and John Everett Millais, and writer and art critic William Michael Rossetti. The Pre-Raphaelites rejected both the dominant ‘academic’ style of painting and the influence of the High-Renaissance master Raphael, preferring to return to the glowing colours and perceived naturalism of late-Medieval art. They laid out their manifesto in The Germ, a short-lived arts review, avowing to express ‘genuine ideas’ and ‘study nature attentively’. Paintings and drawings frequently depicted subjects taken from medieval ballads or scenes from Shakespeare, rendered in exquisite detail. They tackled Biblical subjects with frank naturalism, and painted allegorical scenes exploring contemporary morality, which frequently alienating contemporary critics. The movement continued to expand and accrue new members in the latter years of the nineteenth century. Younger artists including William Morris, Edward Burne-Jones and Simeon Solomon fell under the sway of the Pre-Raphaelite vision, often particularly encouraged and mentored by Rossetti. Simeon Solomon was born in London on the 9th of October 1840, the youngest of eight children in an affluent and cultured Jewish family. His father, Meyer Solomon, was a manufacturer of millinery; his mother, Catherine Solomon, (née Levy) was an amateur painter of miniatures. The family resided in Bishopsgate-Meyer Solomon’s success in business allowed the family to navigate London’s beau monde whilst remaining integrated in middle-class East London Jewish life. Simeon’s older brother Abraham and older sister Rebecca were both successful painters, exhibiting (and in Abraham’s case studying) at the Royal Academy of Art. Rebecca was employed in Millais’ studio and socialised with Rossetti and Burne-Jones, forming the family’s initial connection to the Pre-Raphaelite movement. From the age of ten Simeon received painting lessons from Abraham, then attended Carey’s Art Academy from 1853. At the age of fifteen he entered the Royal Academy, studying from 1856-1860. He proved to be a precocious talent: at eighteen, one of the youngest artists to exhibit at the Royal Academy, he showed his debut work- a drawing entitled Isaac Offered. His early work showed the influence of Rossetti, whom he admired: they probably first met around this time. His abilities as a draftsman caught the attention of Burne-Jones, who would later describe Solomon as ‘the greatest artist of us all, we are mere schoolboys compared to you’. He formed connections with other members of the Pre-Raphaelites including Rossetti, Millais and Holman Hunt, who welcomed him into the movement. He also formed a close friendship with poet Algernon Charles Swinburne, illustrating several of his works. Solomon’s early works often portrayed Jewish Biblical subjects, depicted with intense emotional intimacy and freshness of vision. His painting The Mother of Moses (1860), produced when he was just nineteen, caused consternation at the Royal Academy when it was exhibited. Critics were confounded by the naturalism of the scene, and that the model for the painting, Fanny Eaton, was a mixed-race Jamaican woman. Despite this controversy his work won considerable critical and commercial success which would peak during the 1860s. Solomon occupied a unique position both within the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and in the wider world of late Victorian art. An outsider through religious and cultural heritage, he embraced this ‘otherness’, donning eastern garb for photographic portraits by David Wilkie Wynfield (1837-1887). His homosexuality was also obliquely expressed through his work. He explored themes of same sex love, particularly in portrayals of Sappho. Sappho and Erinna in the Garden at Mytilene (1864) showed the poet and her companion embracing; it was acquired by the Tate in 1980. Solomon’s work moved away from the Pre-Raphaelite style to embrace Classicism during this period, in part inspired by several visits to Italy. He also produced paintings of beautiful and androgynous male figures including Bacchus (1867). Solomon’s flourishing career was abruptly curtailed in 1873, when he was arrested for (at the time criminal) homosexual activities in London. A second arrest occurred in Paris the following year. Although he continued to produce work up until his death in 1905, he never exhibited in the capital again, and in his later years fell into poverty and alcoholism. Despite this adversity Solomon continued to produce art and develop his practice. He was increasingly drawn to the Symbolist movement, producing exquisitely realised chalk drawings and watercolours of heads of allegorical figures, including works The Angel of Light (1885) and Sanguine (Portrait of a Woman) (1892) included in this sale. Solomon’s work and legacy was rightly reappraised in the more liberal mores of the 20th Century, and his reputation restored. His paintings and drawings are included in the collections of institutions including the Tate, the Victoria and Albert Museum, Ben Uri Gallery and Museum, the Ashmolean, Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery, and internationally in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, National Gallery of Art (Washington, D.C.) and the Art Institute of Chicago. Solomon’s artistic reputation continues to grow with the upcoming exhibition Simeon Solomon: Queer and Jewish in Victorian London, opening at the Delaware Art Museum in 2027. Sarah Kingham.

TERMS & CONDITIONS OF SALE AND BUSINESS These Conditions of Sale and Business constitute the contract between Kinghams Auctioneers limited and the seller, on the one hand, and the buyer on the other. By bidding at the auction, and/or consigning to Kinghams Auctioneers limited, you agree to be bound by the following terms. CONDITIONS OF SALE 1. DEFINITION In these terms of business: Kinghams Auctioneers & Valuers is referred to as ‘Kinghams’. The Kinghams representative conducting the auction is referred to as the ‘auctioneer’.

Any notice to any buyer, seller, bidder or viewer may be given by first class mail or email in which case it shall be deemed to have been received by the addressee 48 hours after posting. Special terms may be used in catalogue descriptions of particular classes of terms in which case the descriptions must be interpreted in accordance with any glossary appearing at the commencement of the catalogue. Any indulgence extended to bidders, buyers or sellers by us notwithstanding the strict terms of the Conditions or of the Terms of Consignment shall affect the position at the relevant time only and in respect of that particular concession only; in all other respects these Conditions shall be construed as having full force and effect.

2. AGENCY The auctioneer normally acts as agent only and disclaims any responsibility for default by sellers or buyers if the transaction is not completed and paid for.

English law applies to the interpretation of these Conditions.

3. TERMS OF SALE The seller acknowledges that lots are sold subject to the stipulations of these Conditions in their entirety and on the Terms of Consignment.

1. INTERPRETATION In these Terms the words ‘you’, ‘yours’, etc. refer to the Seller and if the consignment of goods to us is made by an agent we assume that the Seller has authorised the consignment and that the consignor has the Seller’s authority to contract. Similarly the words ‘we’, ‘us’ etc. refer to Kinghams Auctioneers & Valuers.

4. DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITION OF LOTS Every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of statements relating to authorship, descriptions, origin, date, age, provenance and condition of lots. Statements made orally or in the catalogue are opinions given after careful consideration and research. Prospective buyers are given ample opportunity to view lots before any sale. When bidding, buyers acknowledge that they are fully satisfied as to the description and condition of the lot. The absence of a condition report or reference to condition in catalogue descriptions does not indicate that the lot is without fault. 5. ATTRIBUTION OF PICTURES (a) If the forename(s) (or asterisks where not known) and surname of the artist are given, this indicates that in the opinion of Kinghams the picture is a work by the named artist. (b) If the initials of the forename(s) and the surname of the artist are given, this indicates that in the opinion of Kinghams the picture is a work of the period of the named artist and may be wholly or in part his work.

TERMS OF CONSIGNMENT FOR SELLERS

2. WARRANTY The Seller warrants that possession in the lots can be transferred to the Buyer with good and marketable title, free from any third party right and encumbrances, claims or potential claims. The Seller has provided all information concerning the items ownership, condition and provenance, attribution, authenticity, import or export history and of any concerns expressed by third parties concerning the same. 3. COMMISSION Commission is charged to sellers at a flat rate of 15% plus VAT on each lot. There is a lotting charge of £5.00 (+VAT) per lot sold or unsold. There is a charge of £10.00 (+VAT) per furniture lot sold or unsold (defined by staff).

(c) If the surname of the artist is given, this indicates that in the opinion of Kinghams the picture is a work of the same school of the named artist, or by one of his followers, or in his style and of uncertain date.

Insurance is charged at 1.5% (+ VAT) of hammer price or bottom estimate if unsold.

(d) The term ‘Bears signature’ indicates that in the opinion of Kinghams this is not the signature of the artist.

4. REMOVAL COSTS Items for sale must be consigned to the saleroom by and stated deadline and at your expense. We may be able to assist you with this process but any liability incurred to a carrier for haulage charges is solely your responsibility.

(e) All other terms are self-explanatory. 6. FORGERIES Notwithstanding Condition 4, any lot which proves to be a deliberate forgery may be returned to us by you within 21 days of the auction provided it is in the same condition as when bought, and is accompanied by particulars identifying it from the relevant catalogue description and a written statement of defects. If we are satisfied from the evidence provided that the lot is a deliberate forgery we shall refund the money paid by you for the lot including any buyer’s premium. 7. THIRD PARTY LIABILITY Every person on Kinghams premises before, during or after a sale shall be deemed to be there at their own risk and shall have no claim against Kinghams in respect of any injury they may sustain or any accident which may occur. 8. DISPUTES Any dispute not covered in these terms of business will be settled at the sole discretion of Kinghams. 9. GENERAL We shall have the right at our discretion, to refuse admission to our premises or attendance at our auctions by any person. a) Any right to compensation for losses liabilities and expenses incurred in respect of and as a result of any breach of the Conditions and any exclusions provided by them shall be available to the seller and/or the auctioneer as appropriate. b) Such rights and exclusions shall extend to and be deemed to be for the benefit of employees and agents of the seller and/or the auctioneer who may themselves enforce them.

5. LOSS AND DAMAGE OF GOODS a) Loss and Damage Warranty – Kinghams is not authorised by the FSA to provide insurance to its clients and does not do so. However, Kinghams for its own protection, assumes liability for property consigned to it at the lower presale estimate until the hammer falls. To justify accepting liability, Kinghams makes a charge of 1.5% of the hammer price plus VAT. The liability assumed by Kinghams shall be limited to the lower pre-sale estimate or the hammer price if the lot is sold. b) If the owner of the goods consigned instructs us in writing not to take such action, the goods then remain entirely at the owners risk unless and until the property in them passes to the Buyer or they are collected by or on behalf of the owner, and clause 5(a) is inapplicable. 6. ILLUSTRATIONS The cost of any illustrations is borne by you. If we consider that the lot should be illustrated your permission will be asked first. The copyright in respect of such illustrations shall be the property of us, the auctioneers, as is the text of the catalogue. 7. MINIMUM BIDS AND OUR DISCRETION Goods will normally be offered subject to a reserve agreed between us before the sale in accordance with clause 8. We may sell lots below the reserve provided if we can account to you for the same sale proceeds as you would have received had the reserve been the hammer price. If you specifically give us a “discretion” we may accept a bid of up to 10% below the formal reserve.

8. RESERVES a) You are entitled to place prior to the auction a reserve on any lot consigned, being the minimum hammer price at which that lot may be sold. Reserves must be reasonable and we may decline to offer goods which in our opinion would be subject to unreasonably high reserves {in which case goods carry the storage (Condition 17) and loss damage warranty (Condition 5(a) charges as stipulated in these Terms of Consignment}. b) A reserve once set cannot be changed except with our consent. c) Where a reserve has been placed only we may bid on your behalf and only up to the reserve (if any) and you may in no circumstances bid personally. d) Reserves are not usually accepted for lots expected to realise below £50. 9. ELECTRICAL ITEMS These are subject to detailed statutory safety controls. Where such items are accepted for sale you accept responsibility for the cost of testing by external contractors. Goods not certified as safe by an electrician (unless antiques) will not be accepted for sale. They must be removed at your expense on your being notified. We reserve the right to dispose of unsafe goods as refuse, at your expense. 10. SOFT FURNISHINGS The sale of soft furnishings is strictly regulated by statute law in the interests of fire safety. Goods found to infringe safety regulations will not be offered and must be removed at your expense. We reserve the right to dispose of unsafe goods as refuse, at your expense.The rights of disposal referred to in clauses 9 and 10 are subject to the provisions of The Torts (Interference with Goods) Act 1977, Schedule 1, a copy of which is available for inspection upon request.

18. SETTLEMENT Settlement is started from 4 weeks after the auction, subject to normal business conditions and funds being cleared. If the buyer has not paid for the goods no settlement will be made but we will take your instructions in the light of our Conditions of Sale. You authorise any sums owed by you to us on other transactions to be deducted from the sale proceeds. Please note the liability to reimburse the proceeds of sale to us as under the circumstances provided for in Condition 11 above and you should therefore bear this in mind before parting with the proceeds of sale. INFORMATION FOR BUYERS 1. INTRODUCTION The following notes are intended to assist buyers particularly those who may be inexperienced or new to our saleroom. All sales are conducted in accordance with our Conditions of Sale. Our staff will be happy to help you with anything you do not fully understand. 2. AGENCY As auctioneers we usually contract as agents for the seller whose identity, for reasons of confidentiality, is not normally disclosed. Accordingly, if you buy your primary contract is with the seller. 3. THE BUYER The highest bidder acknowledged as such by the auctioneer will be the buyer. If any dispute arises, the auctioneer has absolute discretion to settle the matter. The auctioneer rules the bidding and bids cannot be retracted. The auctioneer reserves the right to refuse any bid.

11. DESCRIPTIONS Please assist us with accurate information as to the provenance etc. of goods where this is relevant. There is strict liability for the accuracy of descriptions under modern consumer legislation and in some circumstances responsibility lies with sellers if inaccuracies occur. We will assume that you have approved the catalogue description of your lots unless informed to the contrary. Where we are obliged to return the price to the buyer when the lot is a deliberate forgery under Condition 4 of the Conditions of Sale and we have accounted to you for the proceeds of sale you agree to reimburse us the sale proceeds.

The successful bidder, whether bidding for himself or for a third party, is entirely responsible for paying for the lots they have bought in accordance with Kinghams’s Conditions of Sale and Business. The auctioneer reserves the right to bid on behalf of the sellers for any lot and to withdraw, consolidate or divide any lot or lots.

12. UNSOLD ITEMS If an item is unsold it may at our discretion be re-offered at a future sale. Where in our opinion an item is unsaleable you must collect such items from the saleroom promptly on being so informed. Otherwise, storage charges may be incurred.

All buyers will be required to provide proof of identity (i.e. driving licence/passport). Upon receipt of the above a paddle will be issued, which is only valid for the current sale. The paddle may be used to indicate your bids to the Auctioneer during the sale. If successful, the bidder must ensure that their number can be seen by the Auctioneer and that it is their number that is called out. Should there be any doubts as to price or buyer, please draw the Auctioneer’s attention to it immediately.

13. WITHDRAWN AND BOUGHT IN ITEMS These are liable to incur charges on being bought in or withdrawn after being catalogued. 14. CONDITIONS OF SALE You agree that all goods will be sold subject to our Conditions of Sale. In particular you undertake that you have the right to sell the goods either as owner or agent for the owner.

You authorise us at our discretion to negotiate a sale by private treaty not later than the close of business 48 hours after the day of sale in the case of lots unsold at auction, in which case the same charges will be payable as if such lots had been sold at auction and so far as appropriate these Terms apply. 17. STORAGE We disclaim all liability for goods delivered to our saleroom without sufficient sale instructions and reserve the right to make storage charges.

4. REGISTRATION Unless registered already on a bidding platform, it is essential that all prospective buyers register with us, giving their full name, address, contact telephone number(s) and email address.

We reserve the right to investigate and identify all bidders and the source of any funds received by us, including but not limited to engaging approved thirdparty vendors. The completion of the sale of a Lot will be postponed or cancelled at our discretion if further time is needed for investigation, or if you are in breach of your warranties as a buyer, or if we consider the sale to be unlawful or in any way cause liabilities or be detrimental to either Kinghams Auctioneers & Valuers Limited or the Seller. 5.
