Note: The Viennese artist Emil Barbarini was the son of the well-known landscape painter and etcher Franz Barbarini (1804-1873). In contrast to the alpine themes of his father, Emil favored depictions of market scenes. His favorite subject was the flower market in front of the Karlskirche in Vienna, but he also executed numerous scenes of markets during trips to the Netherlands and Belgium. Barbarini was particularly interested in the special handling of light at different times of the day, and similar to the French artists Degas and Monet, he often painted the same subject to catch the varying effects of light. The market scene here shows the flower market in Brussels and is a prime example of the artist’s work.

Ryneal, Jr., Washington D.C.” canvas stamp en verso, 24 in. x 20 in., framed. $3000/5000 Note: The second son of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, Alfred was created Duke of Edinburgh in 1866. In 1874 he married Grand-Duchess Marie Alexandra, daughter of Czar Alexander II, at Saint Petersburg, and the prince and princess’s children were born in the years bracketing this sensitive portrait (painted probably either in Paris, while the artist was in residence there in the 1870s, or in Washington—as suggested by the stamp of a D.C. art supplier on the back of the canvas—where the Prince may have been visiting the British Embassy). Prince Alfred became Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha in 1893, and died at Coburg (distraught by the romantically induced suicide of his son and namesake in 1899), in 1900.

308. William “Bill” Dunlap (American/Mississippi, b. 1944), “Late Light ‑ Umbrian Hill Town, I” and “Valley Senzo(?)‑ on going, II”, 1986, diptych, oil on wood, each panel signed lower right and titled lower left, former dated lower right, overall 24 in. x 96 in., framed. $6000/8000 Note: “Hypothetical Realism” is the tongue-in-cheek term that William Dunlap coined to describe his own art. 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.

311. Susan Downing White (American/Alabama, b. 1960), “Causeway XI”, 1991, oil on canvas, signed and dated lower left, “Koch Galleries, Mobile, AL” label en verso, 30 in. x 36 in., framed. $4000/6000 Exh.: Best of Mobile, Mobile Museum of Art, Sep. 3‑29, 1991; and Wiregrass Museum of Art, Dothan, AL, 1992. Note: Chicago-born artist Susan Downing-White has spent most of her life in the South, living both in New Orleans and Mobile. She studied art at the University of South Alabama as well as Auburn University. Downing-White’s airy canvases focus on the sky, coast, and light. The overgrown marshes and coastal scenes found near her home in Mobile provide inspiration for her luminous landscapes. When asked about her artistic process, DowningWhite explains, “The skies interest me most. They change and express mood.” In the painting offered here, the horizon line lies low on the canvas so as to enhance the focus on the breathtaking sky. The crisp white clouds are warmly lit from underneath by a hidden setting sun, hanging suspended in the striking blue field of sky and sea. Ref.: Kemp, John. R. “Injecting Sophisticated Drama: Painting Skies and Coasts with Delicate Brushstrokes.” American Artist. June 2009.

312. José‑Maria Cundin (Spanish/Louisiana, b. 1938), “La Cuadrilla de Luis Araquistain: Postales Taurinas Series (Luis Araquistain’s Group: Bullfighting Postcards Series)”, 1965, oil on canvas, signed and dated mid‑right, “Orleans Gallery, Royal Street, New Orleans” label with title en verso, 34 1/8 in. x 50 1/4 in., framed. $15000/25000 Note: Born in the Basque Country of Spain, Cundin’s work often references his culture and the turbulent history of the region. Cundin’s paintings are infused with wit, intriguing text and frequently, mysterious narratives. In work offered here, the costume of the matador figure and the painted scroll offer a clue to the scene, translating to “Don Louis Araquistain, Maestro Bullfighter, Honored and Famed in the Art of Bullfighting.” The Basque Country has long had close ties to bullfighting. Bilbao has a museum dedicated to the sport, and the famous Pamplona Running of the Bulls takes place in Basque Country. Rather than the conventional Spanish bullfight however, the Basque version is a more acrobatic style often referred to as the Basque-Navarra style, or recortes, where the performer leaps over and around the charging bull. In this painting, Cundin’s figures float and twist through the air with the text intertwined throughout the composition in a style reminiscent of Basque bullfighting. An important early work for the artist, this painting was featured in Cundin’s first exhibition at the noted Orleans Gallery located at 527 Royal Street.

He and his family spent time in Ocean Springs, Pass Christian and Biloxi, where Woodward would eventually retire and spend the later years of his life. The large and masterful painting offered here from 1905 depicts a bright, sunny day in Pass Christian. The alley of live oak trees casts dappled shade along the road, while an African-American figure carrying a sack walks along the sidewalk. A sailboat is visible in the distance on the bright blue Gulf waters. Two other views of Pass Christian of the same size but of different vantage points are illustrated in William Woodward: American Impressionist, plates 135-136.

“A Woman of the Thirties” 350. Eudora Welty (American/Mississippi, 1909‑2001), “The Eudora Welty Portfolio: Mississippi Department of Archives and History and Diogenes Editions”, 1992, 18 toned prints on silver paper, each pencil‑signed lower right, numbered “12/60” lower left and “Diogenes Edition, Jackson, Mississippi” embossed seal lower left, 20 in. x 16 in. or 16 in. x 20 in., framed alike. (18 pcs.) $25000/35000 Provenance: Collection of a Jackson, MS Lady. Note: Before publishing her first story, Eudora Welty was an accomplished photographer. Throughout the 1930s and early 1940s, Welty gathered a body of work remarkable for her choice of subjects and ability to put them at ease. The images depict the everyday lives of Mississippians at the height of the Depression. In early 1936, Welty was featured in a one-woman show of forty-five photographs at Lugene Opticians in New York. That same summer, Welty published her first short story, “Death of a Traveling Salesman,” and became a publicity agent, junior grade, for the WPA in Mississippi. Welty traveled throughout the state’s backroads, small towns, and rural areas to write articles about WPA projects for community weeklies, snapping pictures along the way. Although taking pictures was not part of her official WPA tasks, the experience helped chart Welty’s literary life. She is quoted in 1989: “In snapping these pictures I was acting completely on my own, though I’m afraid it was on their time; they have nothing to do with the WPA. But the WPA gave me the chance to travel, to see widely and at close hand and really for the first time the nature of the place I’d been born into. And it gave me the blessing of showing me the real State of Mississippi, not the abstract state of the Depression.” The rare complete portfolio offered here was conceived as a means of exhibiting the range and diversity of Welty’s work, but more than that it displays the photographer’s wide-ranging curiosity and unstinting empathy, which would mark her work as a writer. The images were chosen from the over 1000 negatives in the the Eudora Welty Collection of the Mississippi Department of Archives and History. Around seventy-five images were presented to Welty, who selected the final eighteen, was closely involved in the printing process and had final approval for the prints.

351. Marie Hull (American/Mississippi, 1890-1980), “Flamingos: A Three-Panel Folding Screen”, oil on wood, signed lower right of right panel, overall 69 1/4 in. x 60 in. $18000/25000 Note: In 1925, Marie Hull and her husband Emmett spent a year in St. Petersburg, Florida. Marie was inspired by the local flora and fauna and created a series of paintings depicting the various exotic birds. In this rare screen, she depicts colorful flamingoes reflected in the aqua blue water with willow tree branches draped overhead. Interestingly, this screen has an Art Nouveau aesthetic which would have been an important current fashion at the time. A masterful painting of flamingoes in the collection of the Fielding L. Wright Art Center at Delta State University in Cleveland, MS relates closely to the screen. Another important screen by Marie Hull painted with macaws was sold in these rooms, November 19, 2011, lot 141. Ref.: Levingston, Bruce, Bright Fields: The Mastery of Marie Hull: Jackson: Univ.

She describes her paintings as “objects themselves, rather than paintings of things.” Using materials such as cloth, paper and wood, the artist constructs, deconstructs and then reconstructs the individual elements to mimic the organic processes of life, often with a trompe l’oeil effect. In the work offered here, the artist’s interests in architecture and nature provide a context for texture, proportion, negative space and the illusion of a long passage of time. Vartanian began exhibiting her work in New Orleans at Galerie Simonne Stern in 1985 and has since been featured in numerous solo and group exhibitions both regionally and nationally.

399. Douglas J. Bourgeois (American/Louisiana, b. 1951), “Crucifixion of Narcisse”, 1975, oil on canvas, signed and dated “October 17, 1975” lower right, 75 in. x 54 in., framed. $7000/10000 Note: Known for his richly symbolic portrayals of celebrities and religious figures, Douglas Bourgeois masterfully depicts the tension between the secular and the divine in this monumental self-portrait. Painted in 1975 while the artist was living in Baton Rouge, Bourgeois spent his days working as a file clerk and his nights and weekends painting tirelessly in order to complete this canvas. The top of the painting proves brighter and more vibrant in color with angels filling the busy background which transforms into a chaotic and carnal scene as it progresses downward, a nod to a wealth of art historical depictions of the Last Judgment. Bourgeois depicts himself as Christ, crucified and complete with stigmata and lance wounds, presiding over the fate of the souls surrounding him. Religious iconography would continue to be a central component of Bourgeois’ work, unsurprising considering that as a teenager he had sincere intentions of becoming a priest. As David S. Rubin writes in the Contemporary Arts Center’s monograph of the artist, “Bourgeois neatly integrated secular elements… with religious references – a pairing that suggests the conflicts he himself was experiencing as he tried to reconcile his Catholic roots with his 1970s pop-culture lifestyle.” Exh. 1977 Artists Biennial, organized by the New Orleans Museum of Art, May 28 – July 3, 1977

Provenance: Arthur Roger Gallery, New Orleans, Nov. 15, 1995. Note: Robert Gordy is best known for combination of both decorative and narrative elements in a flat pictorial space, which include a repetition of shapes in similarly-hued colors. Prior to 1981, the artist would occasionally paint a strong central figure, but these were not a dominant feature in his work. Following his 1981 retrospective at the New Orleans Museum of Art, Gordy began to experiment with a looser, more direct style that featured the head as his main subject matter, ultimately completing an exciting new body of work. Realized in a variety of media, the heads have a three-dimensionality and painterly quality not previously seen Gordy’s paintings, with a heightened sense of tension through careful cropping of the image. In the large-scale work offered here, the geometric planes of the face combined with the artist’s visible brushstrokes create a visual patterning in almost transparent washes of color that is particularly successful.

Note: George Rodrigue held a deep appreciation for the time-honored techniques of classical European art, particularly the traditional methods of bronze casting. Throughout his career, Rodrigue sculpted soft clay using his fingers and metal tools, eventually resulting in hardened clay sculptures that give intriguing glimpses into the hands of an artist most known for his canvases. For almost thirty years, Rodrigue worked with the Shidoni Foundry in Tesuque, New Mexico to transform his clay models into bronze finished sculptures using the lost wax method. Whether three-dimensional versions of his Cajun subjects or wall-reliefs of the Blue Dog, as seen here, these sculptures provide evidence of the creativity and imagination of the artist. A rare example of the iconic face of the Blue Dog, the sculpture offered here is of an edition of only ten and fully captures in bronze the emotion and vibrancy of the Blue Dog.

CONDITIONS OF SALE Placing a bid at auction constitutes buyer’s acceptance of and agreement to these Conditions of Sale. 1. WAIVER OF WARRANTY: All lots are sold “AS IS”. No statement regarding condition, kind, value, or quality of a lot, whether made orally at the auction or at any other time, or in writing in this catalogue or elsewhere, shall be construed to be an express or implied warranty, representation, or assumption of liability. 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing WAIVER OF WARRANTY, agreements and acknowledgements, Neal Auction Company may in its sole discretion, but shall not be obligated to, consider any reasonable request for rescission of a sale on the basis of authenticity of authorship of a work of art under the following terms and conditions only, all of which must be met: A. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission regarding lots identified by Neal Auction Company by the terms “attributed to,” “school of,” “manner of,” “after,” or “signature of.” B. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission regarding any lot unless the buyer notifies Neal Auction Company in writing within 25 calendar days from the date of the auction, and returns the lot to Neal Auction Company in the same condition that the lot was in at the time of sale. C. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission regarding any lot unless the buyer presents to Neal Auction Company a written document signed by a recognized art expert acceptable to Neal Auction Company that the lot in question is a forgery. D. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission to any person (including but not limited to the original buyer’s heirs, legatees, assigns, transferees, or subsequent purchasers) other than the original buyer, and any rights of the original buyer are not transferrable or assignable. E. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission when: (i) there is a conflict of expert opinion as to the authorship; (ii) expert opinion supported authorship at the time of sale, although expert opinion may have changed after the date of sale; and (iii) scientific processes that were unavailable, expensive or impractical at the time of sale have revealed since the time of sale that the author or period Neal Auction Company believed to be accurate at the time of sale was inaccurate. F. In any dispute between Neal Auction Company and buyer regarding authorship of a work of art, it is stipulated that rescission of the sale and refund of the price paid shall be the buyer’s sole recourse or remedy, if any is available, and Neal Auction Company shall not be responsible or obligated for any damages (including compensatory, general, incidental, exemplary or special damages), non-pecuniary losses, costs, expenses, injury, mental anguish, lost profits, attorney’s fees, or any other monetary or injunctive relief. 2. The auctioneer shall have absolute discretion in determining the successful bidder. At the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer, title to the offered lot will pass to the bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer. The bidder thereupon assumes full risk and responsibility and will pay full purchase price for the said lot. 3. The auctioneer may decide that any original bid is not commensurate with the value of the article offered, or that any advance thereafter is not of sufficient amount, he may reject the same.

4. The auctioneer reserves the right to withdraw any item at any time before the sale of the item. 5. No merchandise will be released before the end of the auction. 6. If the buyer fails to comply with any of the Conditions of Sale, Neal Auction Company reserves the right to hold such defaulting buyer liable for the purchase price; to cancel the sale, retaining as liquidated damages any payment made by the buyer; resell the property without reserve at public auction or privately on seven days’ notice to the buyer or, take such other actions available by law as deemed necessary or appropriate. If Neal Auction Company resells the property, the original defaulting buyer shall be liable for the payment of any deficiency in the purchase price and all costs and expenses, including warehousing, the expenses of both sales, reasonable attorneys’ fees, commissions, incidental damages and all other charges due hereunder.
