Pantazis was one of the first Greek painters to explore the new discourse suggested by French Realism and Impressionism. Significantly, each artist began his training in Nikiforos Lytras' Athens studio during the early 1870s, before establishing a vision and career in a foreign city. In 1872 he moved to Paris and it was there that he met Gustave Courbet, whose approach to painting became the cornerstone of Pantaszis style. ''Courbet's Realism offered the young artist new means of self-expression: no longer would his perception of nature concern merely the purely visible aspect, but its inherent truth also. The object would be invested with a spiritual content, not through embellishment or exaltation, but because, however rude, it could be shown as it really existed.'' (S.G. de Heusch, O. Metzafou-Polyzou & S. Samaras, ‘Pericles Pantazis’, Athens, 1994, p. 23)

8 Wilhelm Kuhnert, German 1865-1926 ‘Elefanten im Fluss’ (Elephants in a river) oil on canvas, signed, signed, titled and inscribed ‘Berlin’ on the reverse, 92 x 123cm Provenance: Doig Wilson & Wheatley, Edinburgh according to the label attached to the stretcher; Christie’s London 9 July 2014 lot 109; Private collection, London Note: The work is accompanied with a certificate of authentication and report from Dr Angelika Grettmann-Werner who will be including this work in the Wilhelm Kuhnert catalogue raisonné as no. 4069. During the late 19th century, artists such as Wilhelm Kuhnert were encouraged to study the animals from the many zoos that were becoming popular across Europe at the time. However, Kuhnert felt that these animals were often aged or sickly animals. Dissatisfied with this, Kuhnert chose to follow the example of Germany’s celebrated animal painter Richard Friese (18541918), who advocated the study of wild animals in their native habitats. Thus, Kuhnert travelled to the German and English colonial territories of East and South Africa on safari in 1905 and 1911-12 in order to study animals in the wild, such as this painting of elephants. Dr Angelika Grettmann-Werner noted in her report on ‘Elefanten im Fluss’ that there is another similar painting by the artist, WV No.4211 in her upcoming catalogue, which is also three elephants, two adults and one baby. Grettman-Werner noted that ‘’While the three animals are represented in a similar manner in arrangement and behaviour, the water has been designed as flowing water. There are many more waves, so that the behaviour of all animals is even more alive. The shore is different: the lines between the sand area and the reed are comparable, but the edge is harder. Both on the waterfront and on the shore area there is a flock of birds (ibises)” The Schirn Kunsthalle museum in Frankfurt held a retrospective of the Kuhnert’s works ‘King of the Animals’ October 2018-January 2019, since then there has been an increased interest in this artist, his works can be found in institutions around the world. £10,000 - 20,000*

9 Eanger Irving Couse, American, 1866-1936 ‘Watching Game’ c.1906 oil on canvas, signed, 33 x 43cm Provenance: L. Lehamier, believed to be an art dealer, purchased it for $150 from the artist in 1906; Bion Hall Barnett (1857 - 1958), an American banker, who founded the Bank of Florida and thence by descent. Note: This work will be included in Virginia Leavitt, the artist’s granddaughter, forthcoming catalogue raisonné. Eanger Irving Couse was president and a founding member of the Taos Society of Artists. Native Americans and landscapes of the Southwestern United States, such as this painting were amongst Couse’s most celebrated images. Couse was a renowned artist, as described by art historian Nicholas Woloshuk: “[Couse’s] in-born genius in art, his intensive study of the art of the European masterpieces which hung in museums and galleries, and his tutelage of [William-Adolphe] Bouguereau, [Tony] Robert-Fleury, and [Gabriel] Ferrier resulted with Couse’s paintings ranking with those of the masters of his time. Most of his paintings were spontaneously executed with bold confident strokes of the brush. Some were almost impressionist and near perfection in colour and coordination. His technique was genuinely masterful”. (E. Irving Couse: 1866-1936, Santa Fe, New Mexico, 1976, p. I) A comparable work to ‘Watching Game’ entitled ‘Indian at Sacred Lake’, is held in the El Paso Museum of Art, Texas. £10,000 - 15,000*

Derain’s oeuvre marries the volumes of Paul Cezanné’s (1839-1906) flatness with known non-Western sculpture, which is evident in this portrait. The portrait is likely Derain’s wife, Alice, as the sitter’s features appear to be similar to those of Derain’s other portraits of Alice, for example ‘Madame Derain in Green’, 1907 held in MoMA’s collection. With thanks to Robert Stoppenbach, a member of the comité Derain, for his assistance in the cataloguing of this lot. £6,000 - 8,000*

Tachisme was the non-geometric abstract art that developed in Europe in the 1940s and 1950s characterised by the abstract shapes and splashes of paint similar in aims to the American Abstract Expressionists. Lanskoy described: “I begin by making a quick sketch in charcoal or pastel: this is the skeleton of the painting, which is always fairly elastic. The first waves of colour change it, but do not make it disappear completely. Then I work on the forms and study their relationships from the angle of technique and colour. Sometimes I introduce a new black or white style, related to the idea which served me as a starting point or following the rhythmic requirements of the forms” (‘Notes sur ma peinture’, Paris, private archives, 1949). From the 1950’s, when this piece was created, Lanskoy had achieved a high profile internationally, and had developed his abstract depictions, abandoning his earlier figurative pieces. When ‘Terrain précis’ was offered at Sotheby’s in 2008 the authenticity of this work had been confirmed by André Schoelle. £25,000 - 30,000*

Lots 66-69 by Conrad Marca-Relli are from a private collector in New York, who was friends with the artist. Marca-Relli belonged to an early generation of the New York school of Abstract Expressionists. He first exhibited these works in a 1951 exhibition curated by Leo Castelli (19071999) called Ninth Street Show, which was arguably the most comprehensive show of Abstract Expressionism of its time. During a trip to Mexico in 1953, Marca-Relli began experimenting with collage due to a lack of his typical art materials. Marca-Relli incorporated only the most essential elements to create a painting. While his early collages were rendered in a subdued palette of grays and whites, Marca-Relli later began a series of large-scale collages in the late 1950s, introducing bold colours that would expand outwards to convey intense movement. The oscillation between figuration and abstraction, in this unique medium, was at the principle of Marca-Relli’s practice. Marca-Relli’s works can be found in the following collections; Guggenheim, Whitney Museum, New York and Museum of Modern Art, New York.

Note: Seungmo Park is preoccupied by the nature and illusion of existence, our environment and the way we interpret it in relation to his artwork. His fine wire sculptures and mesh installations are instantly recognisable, but on closer inspection show the intricate fabrication and surprising materials which create these painstakingly made artworks. Therefore perhaps it is no surprise he has been caught on camera comparing himself with his metal wire sculptures: “Ultimately then am I really Seungmo Park just because I have a body and existence, or am I an empty shell, or a shadow like them?” £8,000 - 12,000*

Han Yajuan like other post-1978 generation Chinese artists, portrays China’s socio-cultural transformations and new materialistic trends in her work. Her works mostly employ a cartoon style based on Japanese anime, and explore the multi-dimensions of women’s lives in the Chinese boom. These works come from the artists 'Selection of Dreams' series. The artist said these works depict “…becoming independent in one’s twenties, the age of choices, faced with all kinds of possibilities, with all sorts of big and small questions to explore one’s inner world, to learn and know oneself. It is the beginning of establishing the idea of the “self”. Many people would spend several years or even their entire life to explore the question of “self”, for instance, “who am I”, “What do I like?”’ ('Selection of Dreams', Willem Kerseboom, Amsterdam pp.34-35) Han Yajuan lives and works in Beijing, and can be found in international collections around the world.

TERMS OF CONSIGNMENT FOR SELLERS These terms apply to Rosebery Fine Art Ltd trading as Roseberys and Roseberys London. 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 the Auctioneers. 2. Commission and Entry Fee. (a) Entry Fee: A charge of £20 is made to each lot sold in addition to vendor’s commission. This charge covers our specialist research, catalogue description, website illustration, marketing on our website and other third party sites as well as live or timed bidding on various internet platforms. (b) Vendors Commission: Is charged on each lot at 15%. 3. Catalogue Illustration Fee. The cost of any illustration is borne by you. Lots may be illustrated in a catalogue and thus a charge of between £20-60 per illustration is applicable, dependent on size. For example a quarter page illustration £20, half page £40, three quarter/full page £60. The copyright in respect of such illustrations shall be the property of the auctioneers, as is the text of the catalogue; any persons to be found to have reproduced such illustrations or text without prior written approval will be deemed as being in breach of copyright law and appropriate legal action may be taken. 4. Loss and Damage of Goods (a) Roseberys is not authorised by the FSA to provide insurance to its clients, and does not so do. However Roseberys, for its own protection, assumes liability for property consigned to it at the lower pre-sale estimate until title passes to the buyer. To justify accepting liability, Roseberys makes a charge of 1.75% of the hammer price plus VAT. The liability assumed by Roseberys shall be limited to the lower pre-sale estimate or to the reserve if the lot was unsold. Settlement in any claim arising shall be subject to commission as if the lot had sold in the normal manner. (b) If the owner of goods consigned instructs us in writing not to take such action, the goods then remain entirely at the owner’s 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 4(a) is inapplicable. (c) Roseberys will not be liable for the loss or damage to frames or glass covering prints, paintings or other works. Old frames are often fragile or subject to deterioration and whilst Roseberys will do their
upmost to ensure the safety and care of frames and glass we will not compensate for loss or damage to property caused by changes in humidity or temperature, normal wear and tear, gradual deterioration, inherent defect or errors in processing. 5. Removal Costs. Items for sale must be consigned to the saleroom by any 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. 6. Minimum Bids and our Discretion. Goods will normally be offered subject to a reserve agreed between us before the sale in accordance with clause 7. We may sell Lots below the reserve provided we account to you for the same sale proceeds that 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 approximately 15% below the low estimate and “wide discretion” allows to use accept a bid of up to approximately 30% below the low estimate. 7. Reserves. (a) Prior to the auction you are entitled to place 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 an unreasonably high reserve. If we are unable to offer goods they may be subject to storage charges if uncollected. (b) A reserve once set cannot be changed except with our consent, and confirmed by you in writing. (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. 8. 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. 9. 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 clause 8 and 9 are subject to the provisions of The Torts (Interference with Goods) Act 1977, Schedule 1, a copy of which is available for inspection on request
ROS-007 Listing.qxp_Layout 1 07/06/2019 14:29 Page 105
TERMS OF CONSIGNMENT FOR SELLERS 10. 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 15 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 liability to reimburse the sale proceeds shall not arise where you are acting reasonably and honestly and are unaware of the forgery or where we are or ought to have been aware of it. 11. Unsold Items. Unsold lots will be automatically reoffered into the next appropriate live or online auction with the low estimate reduced by 40% and if the revised estimate is £200 or below it will be offered without reserve. Alternatively, we may contact you to request that you collect the items. If you do not wish to re-enter the lots please notify Roseberys in writing with collection instructions. Please note storage charges will be incurred if lots are not collected within one week, storage charges will be applied of £2 + VAT per lot per day. If a lot remains uncollected two months after the date of the auction, Roseberys shall have the right to sell the lot at auction without reserve and to deduct from the ‘hammer price’ any sum owing to Roseberys as well as expenses arising from all auctions in which the lot has been included, plus storage and loss and damage warranty charges. 12. Withdrawn Items. (a) If an item is withdrawn prior to the publication of the catalogue a minimum charge of £20 + VAT per lot is applicable. This fee covers administration, handling, storage and loss & damage of the lot whilst in our care. (b) If an item is withdrawn after the online or offline publication of the lots they will incur charges where applicable comprising the sum of the vendor’s commission, the entry fee, the illustration cost, the loss and damage warranty, the buyer’s premium, the marketing fees and other expenses in relation to the item. VAT is applicable on all charges. These commission and premium charges will be calculated upon Roseberys published mid estimate. (c) In the cases of 12 (a) and (b) Roseberys will store the withdrawn item for a period of five days with no charge, after this a storage charge will be applicable at a daily rate of £2 per item per day plus VAT for items that remain uncollected.
13. Conditions of Sale. You agree that all goods will be sold according 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 undertake to compensate us and any buyer or third party for all losses liabilities and expenses incurred in respect of and as a result of any breach of this undertaking. 14. Authority to Deduct Commission and Expenses and Retain Premium and Interest. (a) You authorise us to deduct commission from the hammer price at the stated rate plus all applicable expenses incurred on your account and consent to our right to retain beneficially the premium paid by the buyer in accordance with our Conditions of Sale and any interest earned on the sale proceeds until the date of settlement. (b) You authorise us at our discretion to negotiate a sale by private treaty not later than five working days from the date of the auction 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. 15. Warehousing. We disclaim all liability for goods delivered to our saleroom without sufficient written sale instructions, client contact details or without our prior written agreement to take delivery and reserve the right to either refuse to receive such goods or to make a minimum warehousing charge of £2 per item per day. Unsold lots are subject to the same charges if you do not remove them within a reasonable time of notification. If not removed within twenty one days we reserve the right to sell them and defray charges from any net proceeds of sale or at your expense to consign them to the local authority for disposal. 16. Settlement. Settlement of the net sum due to you normally takes place 28 days after the sale (by crossed cheque or bank transfer to the seller) unless the buyer has not paid for the goods. In this case no settlement will then 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. You must note the liability to reimburse the proceeds of sale to us as under the circumstances provided for in Condition 10 above. You should therefore bear this potential liability in mind before parting with the proceeds of sale until the expiry of 28 days from the date of sale.

INFORMATION FOR BUYERS 1. Introduction. The following informative notes are intended to assist Buyers of Roseberys London particularly those inexperienced or new to our salerooms or online only bidding platform. All sales are conducted according to our printed Conditions of Sale which are readily available for inspection in person, on our website and normally accompany catalogues. Our staff will be happy to help you if there is 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. Estimates. Estimates are designed to help buyers gauge what sort of sum might be involved for the purchase of a particular lot. The lower estimate may represent the reserve price or may be above the reserve price. Estimates do not include the Buyer’s Premium or VAT (where chargeable). Estimates are prepared some time before the sale and may be altered by announcement before the sale. They are in no sense definitive. 4. Buyer’s Premium. The Conditions of Sale oblige buyers to pay a buyer’s premium of 25% up to £250,000 (30% inclusive of VAT), 20% from £250,000-500,000 (24% inclusive of VAT), 12% from £500,000 onwards (14.4% inclusive of VAT) The premium price is subject to VAT at the standard rate. 5. VAT. The addition of (*) or (VAT applied on hammer price) to the lot description indicates that VAT is payable by the purchaser at the standard rate, presently 20%, on the hammer price as well as being payable on the buyer’s premium. This imposition of VAT is likely to be because the seller is registered for VAT within the European Union and is not operating the Dealers Margin Scheme or because VAT is due at 20% on importation into the UK. Lots which appear without either of the above symbols indicate that no VAT is payable on the hammer price. This is because such lots are sold using the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme and it should be noted that the VAT included within the premium is not recoverable as input tax. 6. Artist’s Resale Rights/Droit de Suite. Lots as indicated in the catalogue and if sold for the equivalent of 1000 euros or more on the day of the auction will be subject to a further percentage of the hammer price as follows: From 0 to 50,000 euros subject to 4% From 50,001 to 200,000 euros subject to 3% From 200,001 to 350,000 euros subject to 1% From 350,001 to 500,000 euros subject to 0.5% Exceeding 500,000 euros subject to 0.25% The Artist’s Resale Right payable will be the aggregate of the amounts payable under the above rate bands, subject to maximum royalty payable of 12,500 euros for any single work each time it is sold. Calculations of the artist’s resale right will be based on the pound sterling/Euro reference exchange rate quoted on the date of sale by the European Central Bank. 7. Agents. We are, primarily, agents for the seller. We are dependent on information provided by the seller and whilst we may inspect lots and act reasonably in taking a general view about them we are normally unable to carry out a detailed or any examination of lots in order to ascertain their condition in the way in which it would be wise for a buyer to do. Intending buyers have ample opportunity for inspection of goods and, therefore, accept responsibility for inspecting and investigating lots in which they may be interested. Please note carefully the exclusion of liability for the condition of lots contained in the Conditions of Sale. Neither the seller nor we, as the auctioneers, accept any responsibility for their condition. In particular, mechanical objects of any age are not guaranteed to be in working order. Additionally, in specified circumstances lots mis-described because they are ‘deliberate forgeries’ may be returned and repayment made. There is a three week time limit. (The expression ‘deliberate forgery’ is defined in our Conditions of Sale). 8. Electrical goods. These are sold as ‘antiques’ or ‘decorative’ items only and if bought for use must first be checked for compliance with safety regulations by a qualified electrician. 9. Coloured gems. It is common practice for gemstones to be treated in order to enhance colour and clarity. Unless stated buyers should presume coloured stones may well have been exposed to some sort of treatment.
10. Export of goods. Buyers intending to export goods should ascertain (a) whether an export licence is required and (b) whether there is any specific prohibition on importing goods of that character because, e.g. they may contain prohibited materials such as ivory. 11. Bidding. Bidders are required to register with us before the sale commences and lots will be invoiced to the name and address on the registration form. Some form of identification may be required if you are unknown to us. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for telephone bidding. 12. Commission bidding (i)
Commission bids may be left with the auctioneers indicating the maximum amount to be bid excluding the buyers’ premium. They will be executed as cheaply as possible having regard to the reserve (if any) and competing bids. If two buyers submit identical commission bids the auctioneers may prefer the first bid received. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for leaving commission bids by telephone, email or fax. Please ensure bids are left at least one hour prior to the start of the auction.
(ii) Commission bids may also be left via the Roseberys website. These bids are executed via the RoseberysLive software and there is no surcharge. 13. Live Online bidding (a) An online bidding service is offered via RoseberysLive, thesaleroom.com and invaluable.com. In completing the bidder registration on these sites the buyer is agreeing to Roseberys conditions of sale. (b) In the case where a debit or credit card has been used to register the buyer also agrees to authorise Roseberys, if they so wish, to charge the debit or credit card given in part or full payment, including all fees, for items successfully purchased in the auction via the online bidding platforms. (c) Please note there is no additional surcharge for any lots purchased via RoseberysLive, whether live bidding or commission bidding. Any lots purchased via thesaleroom.com or invaluable.com will be subject to an additional 5% commission charge + VAT at the rate imposed on the hammer price. (d) Roseberys offers online bidding services as a convenience to its clients, but neither Roseberys nor the seller will be responsible to you for errors during or after the sale or failures to execute bids, either live bids or commission bids placed on the internet or on your mobile device, including, without limitation, errors or failures caused by: (i) any loss of connection to the auction being conducted online; (ii) a breakdown or problems with the online bidding software or the website service provider; and/or (iii) a breakdown or problems with any internet connection, computer, mobile device or system. (e) By accessing RoseberysLive and using the software provided you are agreeing to the Website Terms and Conditions governing use of our website. Please ensure you familiarise yourself with these prior to accessing our website. 14. Methods of Payment. Payment can be made by cash (maximum 10,000 euros), debit and credit cards (maximum £1,000 online or over the phone) or bank transfer. For international bank transfers an administration fee of £25 is payable. Any cheques tendered will need to allow 10 days to be cleared before removal of lots purchased is permitted. Please note that regulation of money laundering means we are limited to receiving the equivalent of 10,000 euros in cash payment. 15. Collection and storage (a) Please note what the Conditions of Sale state about collection and storage. It is important that goods are paid for and collected promptly. All lots must be collected within five working days following auction. Storage charges of £2 per lot per day + VAT will be strictly enforced thereafter. (b) Roseberys are unable to pack, post or deliver any items purchased through public or online auction, a list of suggested companies is supplied upon issuing of invoices, upon request or on the company website. These are suggestions only and are not the recommendation of Roseberys or affiliated with Roseberys in anyway and as such Roseberys cannot be held responsible for the individual performance of these companies.

Description and Conditions Whilst we seek to describe lots accurately, it may be impractical for us to carry out exhaustive due diligence on each lot. Prospective buyers are given ample opportunities to view and inspect before any sale and they (and any independent experts on their behalf) must satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any description of a lot. Buyers are welcome to make an appointment to view any lots listed on an online only auction. Prospective buyers also bid on the understanding that, inevitably, representations or statements by us as to authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price involve matters of opinion. We undertake that any such opinion shall be honestly and reasonably held and accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently. Subject to the foregoing neither we the auctioneer nor our employees or agents nor the seller accept liability for the correctness of such opinions and all conditions and warranties, whether relating to description, condition or quality of lots, express, implied or statutory, are hereby excluded. This Condition is subject to the next following Condition concerning deliberate forgeries and applies save as provided for in paragraph 6 “information to buyers�. Condition Reports.
