Neal Auction Company is pleased to offer property from the Zigler Art Museum in Jennings, LA. This charming, small museum was founded in 1963 by Ruth B. Zigler, the widow of Fred B. Zigler (1899-1960), a pioneer in marine transportation in the oilfields of Louisiana and East Texas.

The genesis of the Zigler Art Museum was the historic Zigler family home and Mrs. Zigler’s personal art collection. The museum was opened to the public in 1970, and its growing collection was housed in the Zigler home for four decades.

In winter of 2015, the museum relocated to a newly renovated space in Jennings City Hall. The contemporary design showcases the museum’s permanent collection, which surveys and celebrates the development of visual art in Louisiana, and provides space for traveling exhibitions.

Note: The important painting offered here by Ida Kohlmeyer is representative of an early crucial period in the career of this renowned New Orleans artist and uniquely relates to a defining event within her work and also for the art scene of the city. In 1957, Newcomb College professor Pat Trivigno offered Mark Rothko a visiting artist position at the school. Trivigno first met Rothko through an introduction from artist Milton Avery, and the two developed a friendship. Struggling financially at the time, Rothko accepted Trivigno’s offer and moved with his wife and daughter to live and work in the Metairie home of Ida Kohlmeyer’s late mother.

In later interviews regarding Rothko’s visit, Trivigno describes a whirlwind of activity and social events with Rothko and their two families in New Orleans.

Ida Kohlmeyer had been taking classes with Trivigno at Newcomb since 1950. Michael Plante writes in his monograph on the artist, “Although Kohlmeyer’s aesthetic idiom for the next forty years would be abstract and nonrepresentational, she always stressed the importance of the fundamentals of drawing and painting that she had learned from Trivigno.” The two artists would remain lifelong friends, and “Procession,” lot 248, was given to Trivigno as a thank you gift for introducing her to Rothko, who would ultimately have perhaps the most important impact upon her creative output.

Kohlmeyer is quoted as saying that Rothko’s work “seemed the epitome of everything I wanted to say, and was said in the most significant way.” Guidance and inspiration from Rothko solidified Kohlmeyer’s shift from representation to abstraction that had begun the year prior under Hans Hofmann in Provincetown, Massachusetts. The color palette of Rothko and his signature blurring of bands of color into large geometric shapes are both featured in the pivotal painting seen here.

While the artist later claimed publicly to have struggled with her early reliance upon Rothko’s work, others often saw these late 1950s paintings through a different lens. As described by Theodore F. Wolff in his 1982 article in Arts Magazine:

Parenthetically, Rothko’s influence, while certainly evident in her work between 1957 and 1963, was not as total as she herself thought. While she retained his somber and deeply luminous color, and limited herself to his rectangular forms, the tone and quality of her paintings differ dramatically from his. For one thing, she neither accepted nor projected the feeling of vague pessimism underlying his art, and for another, a strong and lively tendency toward playfulness is evident in even the most somber of her paintings...

Exhibited in Kohlmeyer’s first New York exhibition at the Ruth White Gallery in 1959, “Procession” demonstrates the extent to which the artist was following the aesthetic principles of the first generation of abstract expressionist artists, particularly Rothko, whose work she found so moving. The expressive use of color to create a reflective and emotional experience, at the center of Kohlmeyer’s work throughout her career, is evident. In this early painting, Rothko’s forms, color palette and spiritual quality are all present, however Kohlmeyer’s composition refutes themes of mortality and doom to instead represent a vitality and sense of life that perhaps originates from her unique perspective as a woman artist working in the South.

The creative, architectural and political backdrop of New Orleans influenced Rothko’s artistic development, and he produced two of his “breakthrough” paintings during this time in the city.

His transition to a dark palette of brown, black and red, such as “Black in Deep Red” of 1957, represented an almost immediate shift in his own perception of his work and garnered Rothko instant and lasting recognition with art critics. “Procession,” perhaps more than any other singular work, represents a unique merging of the lives and careers of three important artists: Mark Rothko, Pat Trivigno and Ida Kohlmeyer. While each would follow a disparate path to artistic success, their coming together in 1957 in New Orleans would create lasting friendships and resonating visual dialogue.

Provenance: Private Collection, Shreveport, LA.

Provenance: Private Collection, Shreveport, LA.

Note: Clyde Connell was born in 1901, the daughter of a plantation owner in Northern Louisiana. In the 1950’s, through her church she became active in civil rights causes throughout the South.

From 1954 to 1962, she served as the southern representative to the progressive National Council of the Churches of Christ in New York. It was these bi-annual council meetings in New York that would put her in contact with the most current artistic movements. She would absorb these influences and take them home with her to her studio and house in Lake Bistineau.

Connell’s upbringing surrounded by African-American culture would impact her greatly on both a moral and creative level. In fact, her social consciousness and regard for “cast-aside rootless social groups” would prove to be a driving factor in her life. As Charlotte Moser explains in her book on Clyde Connell, “[i]n the 1960s, childhood influences from Afro-American culture re-emerged as major components for her art, first as subject matter in and expressionistic version of social realism and then for its affinities to primitive art.” In the lot offered here, Connell has drawn a series of figures arranged in clusters. Each section has a backdrop of symbols and hieroglyphics, reminiscent of Connell’s Swamp Songs Series, with an inherent tension resulting from the negative space surrounding the clusters.

Note: The work offered here is a powerful sculpture from the “Bound People” series by Clyde Connell and a reference to her feminist leanings. She is quoted as saying: “The women in Shreveport took the lead in art. When I was going to New York… the women didn’t seem to be as free-thinking and didn’t care about the art as the men did. They were too bound up in what they were doing. It was nobody’s fault but theirs.

The bounds were not steel, you could rip them off.”

Martin base, overall h. 15 1/4 in. $7000/10000

Note: Robert Remsen Vickrey was a leading figure of the magic realism school who mastered the difficult technique of egg tempera painting while a student at Yale. In the 1950s and 60s, Vickrey was a prominent artist, exhibiting in the Whitney Museum’s annual exhibitions showcasing contemporary art.

During this time, he also received dozens of portrait commissions for the cover of Time magazine.

Not only did Vickrey excel at the technicality of the egg tempera medium, he became an expert on it, writing two books on the subject. Vickrey’s paintings combine realism and surrealism in city scenes, often depicting children, with his own as models. In the obituary of the artist, the NY Times specifically mentions the painting offered here, “Comma,” dating to 1960, as an example of his technical skill since he painstakingly painted 4,000 individual bricks in the wall in the background. The composition shows a young boy seated on a wooden crate holding an American flag, his back to the viewer. The title refers to the comma painted on the brick wall in the background.

260 Ida Rittenberg Kohlmeyer (American/New Orleans, 1912‑1997), “Synthesis #40”, 1982, mixed media on canvas, signed and dated lower right, handwritten label with title en verso, 45 1/2 in. x 46 1/2 in., period frame. $30000/40000 Note: In the early 1980s, Ida Kohlmeyer developed her series of Synthesis paintings. Abandoning the grid which defined her work of the 1970s, Kohlmeyer embraced bright color and more expressive lines and forms. Her signature glyphs now float in the picture plane instead of being bound in place. She also began to use black as a background, to great effect, for the first time during this period. The painting offered here is an important example of a Synthesis series painting which embodies her style of the period. She continues to ground the composition in a narrow field of white, while now the black backdrop makes the vibrant, colorful forms even more expressive on the canvas.

Zigler Foundation and Mrs. C. A. Storer. Note: Known for his impressionist style, George Elmer Browne studied in Boston at both the Cowles School of Art and the Museum of Fine Arts. Browne finished his studies at the Académie Julian in Paris, where he resided for nearly sixteen years. Upon returning to Provincetown, MA, he founded the Browne Art Classes which included frequent tours through France and Spain.The vibrant landscape offered here depicts the idyllic town of Montricoux located in southwestern France in the Bas-Quercy bordering the foothills of the Massif Central. On the shaded hilltop, he renders a lone figure approaching the sun-drenched village. This strong composition emphasizes the juxtaposition between the bold shadow and radiant light of the provincial landscape. Browne likely traveled through this area during summer tours with his American students.

An accomplished American Impressionist, Browne’s work is included in the collections of The High Museum of Art, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, and Smithsonian American Art Museum.

266. Dale William Nichols (American, 1904‑1995), “Country Church”, 1947, oil on canvas, signed and dated lower left, exhibition label en verso, 30 in. x 40 in., framed. $30000/50000 Provenance: Sotheby Parke‑Bernet & Co., New York, Nov. 1970, lot 587; The Zigler Art Museum, Jennings, LA. Note: Born on his father’s grain farm in David City, Nebraska, Dale Nichols found inspiration throughout his career from his experiences as a child in rural America. Although he studied briefly at the Chicago Academy of Fine Art and the Art Institute of Chicago, his academic experiences held little influence on his unique style. Working during the height of the American Scene movement, Nichols decried modernism and forged a personal aesthetic based on regionalist themes and what he called “applied psychology.”

He saw his paintings as filled with symbolism, which would connect to the deepest truths of human existence and beautifully reflect American country life.

Characterized by Nichol’s geometric compositional elements, the important painting offered here is a particularly compelling example of the artist’s skill with light, with a shaft of moonlight slanting downward to emphasize the doorway and steeple of the rural church. The color palette and sweeping landscape imbue the painting with a sense of isolation, spirituality and anticipation of perhaps the arrival and pleasure of a Sunday morning.

Nichol’s art was exhibited at the New York World’s Fair in 1939, further confirming his status as one of the great Midwest painters, and he exhibited in over eighty regional and national shows during his lifetime. In 1943, Nichols succeeded Grant Wood to become the Art Editor of the Encyclopedia Britannica, a position he would hold until 1948. The 1947 canvas offered here was created during his tenure as Art Editor and at the height of Nichol’s career.

267. Palmer Schoppe (American/ California, 1912‑2001, act.

Charleston, SC, 1934), “Guitar and Bass”, acrylic on paper, signed lower right, titled, “Charleston Renaissance Gallery” and artist’s address labels en verso, 30 in. x 22 in., framed. $5000/7000 Provenance: Charleston Renaissance Gallery, Charleston, SC. Note: While studying in New York City with Thomas Hart Benton, Palmer Schoppe became fascinated with Depression Era jazz and the Harlem art scene. This love of music and his interest in incorporating elements of jazz into his paintings stayed with the artist throughout his career. After completing his art education at the Yale School of Fine Arts and The Art Students League of New York, Schoppe returned to California, where he had lived during his childhood; on his way home, he made stops in South Carolina and Louisiana. Based on his experiences in the South Carolina Low Country, the Gullah community and New Orleans, Schoppe then created a collection of paintings, drawings, and prints that reflected jazz, rhythm, and blues themes, such as the painting offered here, “Guitar and Base.”

The artist first depicted the emblematic image in 1974 and followed with many versions of the iconic Cajun figure.

Seated, standing, holding a flower or wearing a hat, Jolie Blonde paintings highlight Rodrigue’s distinctive graphic style and creatively unite portraiture and legend. In the charming painting offered here, a young Jolie Blonde is framed within the Louisiana landscape, glowing in classic Rodrigue fashion against the dark oaks. As intended by the artist, the canvas reveals little about the model, but rather represents a timeless moment in Acadiana.

He would often paint in his studio on his houseboat, which he used to navigate through the waterways of the Kentucky River. His sensitive watercolors offer crisp details, and, as is noted in Estill Curtis Pennington’s A Southern Collection, “many of his works have a uniform light quality that tends to dissolve form into glowing color abstractions.” In the lot offered here, Sawyier’s talent shines in the precision with which he executes the texture of the dense greenery, rippling water, as well as the minute details of the mill in the background.

Note: One of the five brothers known as the “Fighting Butlers,” all of whom participated in the Revolutionary War and were original members of the Society of the Cincinnati, Thomas Butler Jr. rose to the rank of colonel before his death in 1805, serving under three Generals: George Washington, Anthony Wayne, and James Wilkinson. His parents, Thomas Butler Sr. and Eleanor Parker, married in their native Ireland in 1741 before immigrating to the English colonies. The couple had eight children – the oldest, Richard, was born in Dublin. In Historic Families of Kentucky, Thomas Marshall Green writes: The uniform family tradition is, that Thomas Butler was an officer of ordnance in the British army, engaged in some act of rebellion against the crown, and for a considerable time concealed himself in London. There he was joined by his devoted wife, and there, in St. Andrews, January 6, 1745, their second son, William, was born. Several years passed before a suitable opportunity occurred of escaping to America. But, in the year 1748, the family left Britain, and the third son, Thomas, was born at sea, on shipboard, May 28, 1748.

The five youngest children, Mary, Rebecca, Pierce (or Percival), Edward, and Eleanor were all born in Pennsylvania, where the family settled after arriving in the colonies.

The Butler family history is rich in fascinating anecdotes recounting their bravery and zeal for the American Revolution. With all five sons at war, their father reputedly joined them in 1781, despite being over sixty years old. The enthusiasm and passion for patriotism that ran in the Butler family did not go unnoticed. According to General Samuel Finley, George Washington once toasted to “the Butlers and their five sons” at an officers’ dinner.

Similarly, the Marquis de Lafayette is noted to have written, in regards to the Butler family, “When I wanted a thing well done, I ordered a Butler to do it.”

Thomas Butler Jr. was studying law under James Wilson, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, when in 1776 he abandoned his education and joined the Second Pennsylvania battalion. Butler and his brothers participated in important military actions, including: the Battles of Brandywine, Monmouth, and Yorktown.

After the British defeat, Butler returned to Pennsylvania where he farmed outside Carlisle and focused on family. In 1785, he married Sarah Semple, and the couple eventually had four children, Thomas III, Robert, Lydia, and William Edward.

Six years after his marriage, Butler returned to the battlefield when he joined his brother, Richard, who had risen to the rank of general and was in command of soldiers ordered to fight the Miami natives in Ohio. During the Battle of the Wabash in 1791, also called “St. Clair’s Defeat,” General Arthur St. Clair and General Richard Butler led a poorly outfitted company of soldiers in an attack on a group of American Indians. Both Thomas and Edward Butler were among the officers in that ill-fated group of soldiers. During the course of the battle, Thomas’ legs were both broken, while Richard was shot in the side.

Knowing he was mortally wounded, Richard ordered his brother Edward to leave him and save Thomas; the two younger brothers then escaped on horseback.

In 1792, Thomas Butler Jr. was promoted to major, and by 1794, he had become a lieutenant colonel in command of the Army’s 4th Regiment at Fort Fayette, Pittsburgh. It was there that he famously protected the fort from insurgents who attempted to overtake it during the Whiskey Rebellion. The rebels were protesting the tax on whiskey levied by George Washington and Alexander Hamilton in 1791 to help pay for the country’s debts incurred during the Revolutionary War. By 1794, the revolt had become violent and troops were needed to suppress the dissenters. The ability to quell a violent protest of the laws of the newly independent United States of America was an important victory for the young nation and, although the whiskey tax remained difficult to enforce, and was eventually repealed, the defense of the nation’s laws was seen as a success by the Washington administration.

In 1797, Butler was sent by Washington to Tennessee, where his regiment endeavored, with difficulty and much resistance, to protect Cherokee lands from encroaching white settlers. Once the 1798 Treaty of Tellico officially established the boundaries between the state of Tennessee and the lands of the Cherokee Nation, the 4th Regiment was discharged. In 1802, Butler was commissioned as a colonel in charge of the 2nd Infantry Regiment, second in command under General James Wilkinson in New Orleans.

According to Rev. J.A. Murray in his article “The Butlers of Cumberland Valley” published in 1883, “The Butlers were staunch friends of Washington and his school, and not very partial to Wilkinson and his clique.” Therefore, it is not surprising that Colonel Thomas Butler Jr., a seasoned veteran now aged fifty-four years and known for his tenacity, would clash with General Wilkinson.

The cause for their most famous dispute was an unusual one. General Wilkinson issued an order that all military personnel cut their hair short, abandoning the older style of a long ponytail, or “queue,” that was popular in the late 18th century. Butler was quite attached to his long hair, even having sat for silhouette artist William Bache to receive a likeness of himself in profile, prominently displaying his queue. (This silhouette is number 361 in the Bache Silhouette Book in the collection of the National Portrait Gallery.) Murray writes, “The famous military order to cut off queues, issued by Wilkinson, was chiefly designed for Col. Thomas Butler, whose queue was dressed and head powdered (even during a campaign) before reveille.” Butler famously refused to cut his hair, even under threat of court-martial for disobeying the order.

In 1803, Butler was court-martialed for the first time and reprimanded. The light sentence given to Butler angered General Wilkinson, who again ordered Butler to cut his hair. In 1804, Butler was arrested for “willful, obstinate and continued disobedience” and “mutinous conduct.” At this point, the disagreement reached the highest levels of government. Butler appealed to family friend Andrew Jackson, who wrote to President Thomas Jefferson on Butler’s behalf. However, Jefferson was unable to intercede and the trial, which took place in the summer of 1805, did not end in Butler’s favor. The court found Butler guilty of both charges and suspended him from his position in the military for one year.

However, the sentence was never enforced; Colonel Thomas Butler Jr. died of yellow fever on September 8, 1805. Rebellious to the very end, Butler is quoted to having said on his deathbed, “Bore a hole through the bottom of my coffin right under my head and let my queue hang through it, that the damned old rascal [Wilkinson] may see that, even when dead, I refuse to obey his orders.”

Many of the Butler brothers’ descendants resided in Louisiana. William, whose wife, Jane Carmichael, was from New Orleans, had four children, the eldest of whom, Richard, purchased Ormond Plantation. It was there, on his nephew’s plantation in what is now Destrehan, Louisiana, that Thomas Butler Jr. succumbed to yellow fever in 1805 and was buried. Butler’s own son, Thomas Butler III, became a judge and purchased “The Cottage” in West Feliciana Parish, later serving as a Louisiana congressman in the House of Representatives from 1818-1821.

Other branches of the Butler family settled in Pennsylvania, Kentucky, and Florida, and many of the sons and grandsons of the five brothers followed in their forefathers’ military footsteps. Thomas Butler Jr. and his brother, Edward, both died in the early 1800s, leaving many children in need of support. The brothers’ strong relationships with the families of both George Washington and Andrew Jackson ensured that their children were provided for and several Butler relatives fought with Jackson in the Battle of New Orleans, including Thomas’ sons, Robert, who was Jackson’s chief-of-staff, and William, who was a surgeon in the Second Tennessee Regiment. In 1826, Edward Butler’s son, Edward George Washington Butler, married Frances Parke Lewis, whose father, Lawrence Lewis, was the nephew of George Washington, and whose mother, Eleanor Parke Custis, was the granddaughter of Martha Washington. Thus, the Butler family and the Washington family, who enjoyed much mutual respect and admiration over the years, were joined together.

Zimpel (Prussian/American, 1801‑1879), “Topographical Map of New Orleans and its Vicinity, Embracing a distance of twelve miles up and eight and three quarter miles down the Mississippi River and Part of Lake Pontchartrain, representing all Public Improvements existing and projected and important Establishments, accompanied by A Statistical Table, containing the most accurate Illustrations; prefaced by A Splendid View of New Orleans, & Compiled from actual surveys and the best authorities, by Chas. F. Zimpel, Deputy City Surveyor of New Orleans, Chief Engineer of the New Orleans & Carrollton Rail Road Company and late Engineer in the Prussian Service, Scale six inches to the mile, New Orleans March 1834”, lithograph, on six sheets, original folio, vignettes showing: Orleans Cotton Press Co., City Hotel, Levee Steam Cotton Press, City Hall (Cabildo), St. Louis Cathedral, Presbytere, Bank of the Canal and Banking Co., City House and Market of the City of Lafayette, Bank of New of New Orleans, Union Bank, American Theater, Sugar Refinery, Charity Hospital, State House, “Defeat of the British Army...”, “Plan of the Banks of the Mississippi and Adjacent Country...”, and “Mouth of the Mississippi at the South West Pass”, six sheets (when combined) 63 in. x 64 in. $40000/60000 Note: Zimpel, Charles F. (Karl Frederick Zimpel) and the subject map are best summarized in Ellen Merrill’s Germans of Louisiana. Pelican Publishing Company, Inc. 2005: “Zimpel was a young Prussian aristocrat who soon established a lucrative career in the city as a surveyor, engineer, and architect. His tastes were mainly classical, in keeping with the style in vogue in both Europe and America. He was highly successful in those areas in which he was trained and, for a short time, became deputy surveyor and chief engineer for the city.

In 1833 he laid out and developed the City of Carrollton. Perhaps his most important achievement was the detailed map of New Orleans he produced in 1834. Dissatisfied with the quality produced by the lithographers in New Orleans, he sent his original drawing back to Germany. On the return trip the lithographic stone and reproductions were lost at sea, making the Zimpel map a collector’s item. As chief engineer of the New Orleans and Carrollton Railway, which ran from Canal Street to Carrollton Avenue along Nayades Street (now St. Charles Avenue), he got involved in land speculation. Having little experience in this area, he soon fell into debt and fled the city. After only seven years of working in New Orleans, he returned to his native Prussia.” Zimpel also designed and oversaw construction of several important buildings in New Orleans during his tenure here, three of which are shown in vignettes above his map: the Bank of New Orleans, City Hotel, and the Orleans Cotton Press. Only six copies of the Zimpel map have been located, five of which are housed in institutional collections. There is only one located record of sale in the past several decades, that of this copy at a German auction in 2008.

300. Monumental Map of Alabama and West Florida by John La Tourrette (American, b. 1785), “An Accurate Map of the State of Alabama and West Florida: Carefully compiled from the original surveys of the General Government; designed to exhibit at one view each Section and Fractional Section, so that each person can point to the tract on which he lives; By John La Tourrette, Mobile, Ala.”, Engraved by S. Stiles & Co, New York, 1837, hand‑colored wall map, first state, with vignettes of The State House, A Cotton Plant, University of the State of Alabama, The U.S. Arsenal and Fort Morgan; inset maps of Mobile, Florence, Tuscaloosa, Tuscumbia, Huntsville, Montgomery, Wetumpka and Pensacola; and numerous economic and demographic charts, sheet 66 in. x 54 in., framed, original rollers unmounted but provided. $40000/60000 Note: Little is known biographically about John La Tourrette, except that he was a cartographer who produced the most detailed, ornamental, and factual maps of the Southeast United States during the antebellum period. Born on Staten Island, New York in 1785, he moved to Mobile prior to 1830, as he is shown on that census as a 45 year old male. His first documented works were maps of the Creek Territory in Alabama and the Choctaw Territory in Alabama, both published in 1833. His next work of record is the subject Alabama and West Florida map in 1837. There are only four located copies of this map, one of which is the second state at the Alabama Department of Archives, containing the text “Printed by Colton & Co.” above the lower right border. The national Archives (Special List 29: Alabama #5) lists an 1837 La Tourrette Alabama map, there is no mention of Colton as publisher, so this could be another first edition/first state map as well, The 1850 Catalog of the Maine State Library lists a copy with little information about the map; a search of the current library records finds no map. The subject map was deaccessioned by the Connecticut State Library in 2012; it is the only documented copy of the first state at present, pending review of the National Archives copy. The located copies contain bold red U.S. Land Office District numbering, with the districts outlined in red, indicating the land use orientation of the map. Monumental maps of Mississippi and Louisiana followed, along with reissues of all three publications. La Tourrette relocated to New Orleans before 1845 and continued his publishing efforts there. The Alabama map was reissued in 1838 and 1856 by D. H. Cram.

301. William Trost Richards (American, 1833‑1905), “Rolling Waves, Newport, Rhode Island”, 1901, watercolor on paper, signed and dated lower left, “Christie’s” labels en verso, 17 1/2 in. x 26 1/4 in., framed. $5000/7000 Provenance: Estate of Henry Goodrich (1930‑2014), Shreveport, LA. Note: A native of Philadelphia, William Trost Richards had a fifty-year career as a noted landscape and marine painter whose mature work combined extremely detailed aspects of nature with atmospheric qualities. He was especially innovative during his career for adapting informal composition techniques from the Pre-Raphaelites of England and painting nature through close observation.

In 1866, Richards had traveled to England and his focus turned from landscapes to marine painting. A year later a storm at sea caught the painter’s attention, and he began to study the structure of waves and how weather affects the sea and shore. The latter part of his career, he was firmly established as a coastal and marine painter, depicting scenes from New Jersey to Maine, ever fascinated by the tumultuous phenomenon of water hitting rocks and beach. Richards began working in watercolor in the late 1860s, which was linked to his growing interest in the seashore. Watercolor was best for plein air sketching and expressing the atmospheric effects he sought to achieve. The painting offered here is a beautiful example of one of his incandescent shorelines, the waves realistically rendered as their foamy peaks crest against a luminous sky.

Note: Paul Ninas was one of the pioneer modernists of the South, often described as the “Dean of Modern Art” in New Orleans. Active in the city from 1932 until his death, Ninas was extensively well-traveled, having spent time in Europe, Africa and the West Indies. The artist spent the years prior to his arrival in New Orleans living and working on his coconut and lime plantation on the island of Dominica in the West Indies.

Each locale he visited influenced Ninas’ studies and artistic output.

The painting offered here is a beautiful example of a Spanish Colonial streetscape, depicted in a bright Fauvist palette with rectangles of color under an anthropomorphic sky. The influences of Picasso are clear, most likely originating from the artist’s visits to the Delgado Museum of Art’s major Picasso exhibition organized by the Museum of Modern Art and presented in December 1940. Ninas also incorporated mixed media into the composition, something with which he was continually experimenting during the 1940s and 50s. He chose to delineate the details of the doors and balustrades, which help identify this unique architecture and provide a sense of place and context to the painting. Notebooks by the artist include drawings from his time spent in the Caribbean, and particularly Cuba, in the 1930s, perhaps providing inspiration for this important work.

LeClair dated Oct. 13, 1964. $15000/25000 Provenance: Sotheby Parke‑Bernet & Co., New York, Nov. 1977, lot 593; The Zigler Art Museum, Jennings, LA. Note: Robert Henri was an American Realist painter who led the Ashcan School, an informal group of artists known colloquially as “The Eight,” whose goal was to “advocate a new kind of ‘democratic art’ and to explore the everyday life of ordinary people in large cities.” Henri thought of himself as a reporter, faithfully documenting the lives of the urban and unglamorous with earnest enthusiasm.

While initially quite taken with the style of French Impressionism, he rejected the “optical and plastic ‘sensations’ at [its] core.” Henri aimed to revolutionize what was considered acceptable subject matter for art.

310. John James Audubon (American, 1785‑1851), “Mississippi Kite”, Plate 117, hand‑colored engraving with aquatint, from The Birds of America, Havell edition, watermarked “J.Whatman/1831”, sheet 39 in. x 26 in., framed. $3000/5000

In this painting offered here, Henri uses a dark palette reminiscent of Edouard Manet and Edgar Degas. The dimness of the room is amplified due to the harsh light from the orchestra illuminating the dancers, who are clustered in the lower right quadrant of the canvas. Henri captures the frenzy of the stage and elegant movement of the dancers with lively brushstrokes.

Ever the meticulous diarist, Henri kept detailed record books of his paintings, which he would label with a code of numbers and letters. This canvas is marked “126 A3” and is listed as “’Ballet-Black Crook’ Phila 1894”. He also made notes about the color palette used here, a “gray greenish light” as well as the composition, “many figures, six prominent.”

This third issue is larger and more up-to-date than either predecessor, including the additional map showing the principal roads accessing Mexico City from Vera Cruz and a road profile. This information was vital for the final U.S. assault on Mexico City, which had not yet occurred at time of publication. Mexico City fell in October and led to the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in February 1848, which ended the question of US/Texas sovereignty in the region. Additionally, Mexican control from California to New Mexico was lost as well, paving the way for additional westward expansion by the U.S. Ref.: Rumsey, 4594.

Note: Born in New Orleans in 1754, Charles Louis Boucher de Grand Pré (called Don Carlos under the Spanish government in Colonial Louisiana) descended from a French Acadian family. Grand Pré joined the New Orleans Militia in 1769, and in 1775, he transferred to the Louisiana Infantry Regiment, which was organized under General Alejandro O’Reilly on behalf of the Spanish government in 1770. Grand Pré rose to the rank of captain before serving as Commandant of Natchez, Mississippi from 1786-92.

While in Natchez, Grand Pré built a home for his family called “Concord,” which would later serve as the Governor’s Mansion for the first Governor of Mississippi, Don Manuel Gayoso de Lemos. Grand Pré then served as Lieutenant Governor of Ouachita, Louisiana in 1797 and was appointed Governor of Baton Rouge in 1798, a post he held until 1808. It was reported that Don Carlos de Grand Pré died in Havana, Cuba in 1809, predeceased by his wife but survived by many children, whose descendants later married into prominent Louisiana families.

Note: Studying at Cornell University, the Art Students League of New York, and the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome, Joan Danziger has had an illustrious career in Washington, D.C., as well as exhibiting throughout the United States. Her oeuvre, which includes drawings, sculptures, tapestries and textiles, has long been focused on the themes of dream imagery, metamorphosis, mythology, and the interconnectedness of life. Inspired by ambiguity and symbolism, Danziger’s works frequently incorporate hybrid human-animal forms accompanied by animals, such as the woman with a bird head carried by penguins in the current lot. In her work, Danziger is not attempting to recreate specific myths or narratives. Rather, she says, “My work is inhabited by spirits. People come out of it with their own stories.”

619. Gary L. Freeman (American, 1937‑2014), “Miss Congeniality”, cast aluminum, unsigned, h. 44 in., w. 21 1/4 in., d. 15 1/4 in. $400/600 Provenance: Property of the New Orleans Museum of Art, Sold to Benefit the Acquisitions Fund.

Note: Gary L. Freeman received his Masters of Fine Art from Tulane University with a focus on metal casting and fabrication in 1963. After graduating, he spent three years as a partner in a fine arts foundry in New Orleans, Orleans Workshop, Inc. In 1968, he accepted the position he would hold until his retirement in 2001, chair of the sculpture department at the Herron School of Art and Design at Indiana University - Purdue University at Indianapolis.

As Steven Mannheimer glowingly writes, “over the decades, Freeman’s sculpture spanned a range of styles and material processes, but was always informed by the same exacting professionalism both in technical execution and the thorough consideration of artistic idea. In an era when many modernist sculptors hired fabricators to complete works too big or demanding for their own technical expertise, Freeman was his own expert, and it showed in the meticulous surfaces, edges and joints of his signature steel constructions.” Freeman’s mastery of metal casting is evident in the lot offered here. “Miss Congeniality” is the human form reduced to its most basic parts and rendered practical to such an extreme that it could almost double as furniture. The work is an interesting critique of the objectification of the female body.

620. John Geldersma (American/Louisiana, b.

1943), “Untitled”, 1992, mixed media painted wood, signed, dated, and possible artist brand on reverse, h.

44 1/2 in., w. 17 1/2 in., d. 4 in. $400/600 Provenance: Property of the New Orleans Museum of Art, Sold to Benefit the Acquisitions Fund.

Note: A New Orleans native, John Geldersma began carving wood totems and tablets in 1970. Dividing his time between Louisiana and Colorado, the artist works primarily with native woods such as fallen aspen, pecan or weathered driftwood. Geldersma’s sculptures resonate with both the energy of the bayou in Louisiana and the minimalist rigor of his East Coast training. His creative process is a careful dialogue with his materials, often combining burned wood (for black) and vibrant paint. As seen in the work offered here, the color palette gives life to Geldersma’s forms with a tribal, elemental feel that is strong and direct. The totems are central to the artist’s private mythology and invite meditation and solitary contemplation.

Note: Dr. Robert Gross was intensely interested in using his skills to make a difference in developing countries, particularly Haiti. He first visited the Caribbean country in the 1950s, when he heard that women were suffering from cervical cancer at higher than normal rates; he wanted to help treat, cure and educate wherever possible. Through his work, Dr. Gross met Dr. Yvonne Sylvain, the first female physician in Haiti, who was already well-known for her work with Haitian women, both in the medical field and the women’s suffrage movement. Dr. Gross mentored Dr. Sylvain in handling some of the more prevalent disease presentations in Haiti based on his training in the United States, and he developed a deep respect for the country throughout the course of his time there. Dr. Gross continued to visit Haiti throughout the 1950s and 60s and also became a close friend of Issa El Saieh, who was a seminal figure in the Haitian cultural scene.

During the 1940s and 1950s, El Saieh led a big band that created a new school in Haitian music. The band played a mixture of Haitian, jazz and Afro-Cuban music, and they produced a number of records on his own label, La Belle Créole. El Saieh subsequently dedicated himself to supporting and fostering Haitian art and founded his namesake gallery. The El Saieh Gallery became a formative place for the local talent to exhibit a powerful school of painting.

According to El Saieh’s obituary, “he was a unique talent spotter who discovered and hired a large number of the great Haitian naïves: Jacques Enguérrand Gourgue, André Pierre, André Normil, Jacques Chéry, Seymour Bottex, Alexandre Grégoire and dozens of others.”

In the 1960’s, Dr. Gross took his wife, Angela, to meet Issa, see the natural beauty of Haiti and enjoy its rich culture.

Angela became acquainted with several of the artists, and she commissioned the unique two-sided screen offered within this collection. Many of the paintings offered here were purchased from the El Saieh Gallery by Dr. Gross or Dr. and Mrs. Gross together and were proudly displayed in their New Jersey home, representing a memorable time period for the couple and an important piece of Haitian culture.

His landscapes, often depicting a vast horizon of hills, trees, and buildings are meant to be representations of specific places, but it is not uncommon for certain landmarks and details to be out of place. In the painting offered here, Dunlap utilizes his characteristic diptych format to fully capture an expansive scene. While the foregrounds of Dunlap’s paintings are frequently punctuated by animals, this rare canvas features a lone figure facing away from the viewer to survey the Italian hill town (most likely Todi) below. The singularity of this out-of-place nude, which acts as a stand-in for the viewer, underscores the dream-like sequence of the painting as a whole and leaves the interpretation entirely in the beholder’s imagination.

Any such warranty is WAIVED. Regarding works of art, Neal Auction Company does not make any express or implied warranty as to authorship. No statement in the catalogue or elsewhere, orally or in writing, shall be construed as an express or implied warranty, representation or limitation of liability as to authorship. Any such warranty is WAIVED. Buyer agrees and acknowledges that: (a) buyer is not relying on Neal Auction Company’s skill or judgment in selecting to purchase any lot; (b) no oral or written statements in the catalogue of Neal Auction Company or elsewhere regarding condition, attribution, kind, quality, value or authorship are the cause of or reason behind buyer’s purchase of any lot; (c) buyer would have incurred the purchase of any lot regardless of any oral or written statements about condition, attribution, kind, quality, value, or authorship made in the catalogue or elsewhere; (d) Neal Auction Company did not know and could not have known that condition, attribution, kind, quality, expressed value, or authorship is the cause or reason why buyer decides to purchase any lot; (e) buyer’s purchase of any lot is not intended to gratify a nonpecuniary interest; and (f) Neal Auction Company did not know, nor should it have known, that any oral or written statement about a lot in the catalogue or elsewhere would cause a nonpecuniary loss to buyer.
