1. Alexander Runciman (Scottish, 17361785), “Sorrowing Mother with Two Children—A Babe and a Youth”, c. late 1760s/early 1770s, sepia ink and wash with white gouache on creamcolored wove paper without discernible watermark, signed with monogram “AR” at right center, with indecipherable 2-line inscription en verso, 4 5/8 x 5 1/4 in., in a modern mount. $500/700 Provenance: James R. Lamantia, Jr., New Orleans and New York.

Note: This is an important and influential drawing by the underappreciated artist Alexander Runciman, who was a pioneer in the introduction of grand-manner history painting to Scotland. He and his brother John (17441768/69) traveled to Rome in the mid-1760s, and John died in Italy; this drawing seems likely to reflect Alexander’s study of Renaissance and Mannerist art, either during his years in Rome (1767-1771), or soon thereafter, when Runciman proposed a series of classical themes for the decoration of his masterwork, the interior of Penicuik House for Sir James Clerk, third Baronet of Penicuik (1709-1782). Those interiors—representing much of Runciman’s output—were destroyed by fire in 1899; but large numbers of his drawings still exist at the National Gallery of Scotland, by which his classicizing as well as his medievalizing style can be studied (the principal component at Penicuik had been the Hall of Ossian, whose decorations were based on the fantastical contemporary poetry of James Macpherson, 1736-1796). This powerful drawing probably depicts one of the heroines of classical antiquity, for on the right two large columns are lightly sketched; the familiar pyramidal configuration is strongly articulated by the bowed head and enveloping figure of the grieving mother, and brilliantly articulated by the pathos of the childrens’ bodies, arranged on a single diagonal. The composition was presumably painted or redrawn by Runciman, for it informs many of the parallel configurations of Henry Fuseli (1741-1825, who knew Runciman in Italy, and in 1771 called him “the best Painter of us in Rome”), as well as many others of their intimate circle.

Note: This is an early example of Pugin’s architectural—or more properly topographical—studies, being a view from the north of the famous old watchtower (1400-1428) on the northwest line of the former city walls at Frankfurt-am-Main, Germany. The Eschenheim Gate is now restored to its Medieval form, as Pugin 2 meticulously drew it; like all the monuments of Frankfurt, it was substantially reconstructed after World War II. The twin turrets a third of the way up now have new windows, roof spires, and machicolations; there are two more windows (distinguished by their more modern stonework) to light intermediate floors in the tower itself; and the machicolations, battlements, and spires of the crowning ring of turrets have all been rebuilt. Pugin probably owed his deep acquaintance with 5 (1 of 5) this tower to the constant series of travels that he undertook to study Medieval architecture on the Continent (principally in France, Belgium and Germany) beginning in May 1832, when his first wife died in childbirth; and his father, his mother, and his aunt—from whom he inherited financial independence—all followed her within a few months. The paper of this drawing is dated “[18]33” on what is almost certainly a remnant of a John Whatman watermark: there is no reason to assume that Pugin would have availed himself of such a prestigious paper in any later year than 1833/34, and we may confidently take that internal evidence as the date of this fine drawing. Pugin’s later career, as perhaps the finest Gothic Revival architect of the first half of the 19th c., is here given a very significant impetus.

$500/700

$800/1200 Provenance: Swann Galleries, New York; to James R. Lamantia, Jr., New Orleans and New York (by whom inscribed on mount: “Possibly related to the Sackler drawing, Columbia-”).

Note: The several incidents depicted (which are rare among Italian drawings) are most fully related in Matthew 4, 1-11 (though also mentioned in Luke 4, 1-13, and summarized in Mark 1 12-13). They describe the Devil’s tempting Christ respectively in the desert, before a city, on the temple, and at the top of a high mountain, and then Christ being succored by angels after the ordeal. The drafting style is unusually uniform and unemphatic: it is presumably meant to suggest (if the attributional name is contemporaneous, which it seems from the ink color clearly to be) that Giovanni Battista Piranesi (1720-1778) may have had a very early graphic training under some figurative master.

But this is not the case, since he was trained at Venice by uncle, Matteo Lucchesi (1705-1776), and—after quarreling with that “extravagant genius”—also with Giovanni Battista Scalfarotto (c.1690-1764); and both those tutors were engineers and architects, rather than figurative draftsmen. (Piranesi’s remarkably consistent figural style was learned only later, from such capriccioso masters as Carlo Zucchi, the Valeriano brothers, the Galli-Bibiena family, and Sebastiano and Marco Ricci.) The vestigial shield of arms sketched at small scale in the vault seems possibly to be that of the Mocenigo family of Venice, which might argue for a Venetian rather than a Central Italian origin for this sheet; but it must have been widely known that Piranesi signed his drawings with his surname (written, however, in a different and earlier script), so that any locality is open for the production of this sheet. There is some chance that the drawing itself is independent of the inscription, and that only the “signature” was added later; an attentive study of many Italian drafting styles of the 18th and 19th centuries has failed to turn up a recognized candidate for its author.

Provenance: James R. Lamantia, Jr., New Orleans and New York.

Note: Shepherd Gallery of New York, as the lead entry in their summer catalogue for 1995, published the unmistakable twin to this very powerful drawing, a watermarked sheet of nearly identical size (24 x 17 in.) with precisely the same technique, stumping, abstract horizon line, and shading of the same darker diagonal segment behind the right calf. That sheet even has an exactly analogous model in a precisely similar position (though this subject appears slightly more muscular), and he too holds with both raised hands an identical posing strap descending from above. The Shepherd drawing is inscribed with the artist’s name of Misbach, plus the fact that it was executed in an “École de Modele [under] Prof. ____ [and dated Germinal, Floréal, or Prairi]al, An 7” (which, in the brief term of the French Revolutionary calendar, coincides with a date between 21 March and 18 June 1799). A number of Misbach’s topographical views of Paris are recorded; and he helped to train a son, Constant Misbach (1808-1850), who exhibited at the Salon as a history painter between 1831 and 43 1850, when he died at age 42. Nothing else is known of the senior Misbach; but these two “academy” studies certainly demonstrate his full mastery of anatomy and pose, even in his evidently early decade of the 1790s. (His son’s birth in 1808 means that the father was probably married c. 1800/05, and thus was born in approximately 1775; he would therefore have been only in his late teens and early twenties when these drawings were made.) The fact that this and the Shepherd sheet both received such circumstantial inscriptions apparently argues for Misbach’s contemporary renown, a status clearly borne out by this second—and substantially earlier—addition to his oeuvre.

Note: The most illustrious member of a famous five-generation dynasty of French draftsmen and painters originally from Flanders, Carle Van Loo is here contemporaneously labeled as “Père” to distinguish him from his son Jules-César-Denis Van Loo (1743-1821, then in his twenties), who emigrated to Turin—like his father—and painted at the Piedmontese court. Carle, born at Nice, was trained at Turin from 1712 and Rome from 1714, where he studied with the sculptor Pierre Legros II (1666-1719), who was particularly celebrated for his fine drawings. Upon moving to Paris in 1719, Carle himself won a first prize in drawing from the Académie Royale in 1723, and was awarded the coveted Prix de Rome in 1724. Another of his drawings took first prize at the Academia di San Luca in 1728, and he began to demonstrate the stylistic eclecticism which distinguished his career, varying from the refined classicism of Raphael and Carlo Maratta to the dramatic dynamism of his own best contemporaries, of whom François Boucher was his particular friend. After another highly creative stay in Turin (1732-34), Van Loo began a brilliant career in Paris in the following year, when his 1735 admission to the Académie Royale was immediately followed by a host of official, religious, and royal commissions. He was ennobled in 1751, and appointed First Painter to the King in 1762; Baron von Grimm called him “the greatest painter in Europe.” This very splendid sheet (despite its evidence of having been removed from an album) seems too regular and finished to be merely a preparatory sketch for a painting: rather it shows every evidence of being a presentation drawing in its own right, exemplifying the precise, technically perfect mastery which has made Van Loo’s drawings conspicuously rare on the market.

At Walker’s first arrival in St. Augustine, several artists had already made the trip south from New York, many opting to stay and set up studios to record the lush and varied Florida landscape. Steam powered vessels such as the one pictured here were common along Florida waterways. In this canvas Walker takes a step back from the agrarian roots of his cotton field portraits and cabin scenes, choosing instead to frame the industrial steamship chugging its way upriver pass the skiff with its fishermen folding their sails after a long day.

250. Peter Poskas (American, b.

1939), “Cream Hill”, oil on canvas, signed lower right, 38 in. x 47 1/2 in., framed. $10000/15000 Provenance: A New Orleans Collection.

Note: Peter Poskas is an acclaimed landscape painter who paints realist views of the towns and landscapes of Litchfield County, Connecticut. The work offered here depicts the Cream Hill Agricultural School in Kent, CT. Originally located in Cornwall, CT, the school was one of the earliest dedicated to the teaching of scientific agriculture in the United States. Founded in 1845, the school was disassembled, moved and reassembled at the Connecticut Antique Machinery Association site in Kent in 1994. The painting appears to show the building in its original location.

A graduate of the Hartford Art School and the MFA program of the University of Massachusetts, Poskas embraced realism during a period when Abstract Expressionism was in favor. With their crisply detailed execution and sensitivity to subtle gradations of light, Poskas’s works are both realistic depictions and poetic evocations. In the tradition of Andrew Wyeth, Poskas’s work evokes an immediate sense of time and place.

Note: In 1823 Congress commissioned Stone to produce a fine actual-size replica of the original Declaration of Independence. After Stone printed the 200 copies ordered, the original engraved plate remained with the Department of State. A few years later, Peter Force (1790-1868), historian publisher and mayor of Washington D.C., conceived a 20-volume anthology entitled American Archives, containing copies of letters, documents and broadsides from the Revolutionary War. Force arranged with the State Department to print 4000 copies of the Declaration.

Hezekiah Niles/Editor, Niles’ Weekly Register, containing Political, Historical, Geographical, Scientific, Statistical, Economical and Biographical, Documents, Essays, and Facts..., 1811-1836, printed in Baltimore, volumes 1-50 (but lacking 21 and 48), octavo, full calf, most with bookplate of John P. Conrad. $3000/5000 Provenance: The volumes bear the 19th c. bookplate of John P. Conrad of Franklin, LA, likely a member of the Conrad-Weeks family, prominent Acadiana plantation owners.

Note: Niles’ Register was one of the great 19th c. weekly magazines, with a circulation comparable to today’s Newsweek or Time. As a resource of early 19th c. politics and economics, nothing compares to the vast record of articles, reprints of public documents, treaties, data, and the War of 1812, contained in the Register. Thomas Jefferson wrote, “I have found it very valuable as a Repository of documents...and facts of the day, and the ease with which the index enables us to turn to them.”

Lamantia, Jr., New York and New Orleans.

283. William Woodward (American/New Orleans, 18591939), “French Market, New Orleans”, 1903, watercolor on paper laid down on board, titled lower left and inscribed “Jan.”, signed and dated “Wm. Woodward, New Orleans 1903” on backing, 24 in. x 16 in.; accompanied by an envelope inscribed “This watercolor done

by Mr. William Woodward circa 1900. It was property of my grandmother, Nannie Mather Bell” with typed “Bomar” return address, attractively matted and framed. $7000/10000 Provenance: Gift from the artist; descended in a Louisiana family.

Note: The French Market was a favored theme of William Woodward. He depicted it in different media over several decades. A watercolor from 1891 in The Historic New Orleans Collection depicts an active scene with piles of cabbages and onions and a man at work cleaning cabbages in the right background. Seemingly the same man is shown in the 1903 painting offered here, but in a slightly different location of the market. This view depicts one of the gabled entries on the river side of the French Market and relates very closely to a Raffaelli oil crayon from 1904 in the collection of the New Orleans Museum of Art. In that work, from a different angle, he shows the same woman with her red scarf and blue skirt, standing by a table piled with cabbages. The man is also shown, but at work on his horse carriage. Large watercolors by William Woodward are quite rare as he generally preferred the medium of oil crayon to capture his beloved Vieux Carré.

Note: William Henry Buck’s romantic and atmospheric depictions of the Louisiana landscape are noted for his moss-laden live oak trees and views of bayous. He achieved a recognizable compositional style which makes his work discernible from that of his contemporaries. As shown in the work offered here, Buck often paints a large live oak tree placed prominently within the picture creating an anchor for the scene. The landscape here is depicted just after the sun has set with dark trees starkly contrasted against a fiery sky. Lily pads in bloom illuminate the foreground setting the bayou ablaze with the reflection of sunset.

Weave Rivercane Baskets, probably early 20th c., consisting of a carba and two tray baskets, natural, black and tan cane; carba with three bands of bow ties, lid with one band; one tray with two bands of “Black Bird Eyes”; the other with two small bands of “Black Bird Eyes”; heights 14 in., 7 in., 5 in., widths 16 3/4 in., 21 1/2 in., 18 in., depths 16 in., 21 in. and 18 in., respectively. Note: “As is” estate condition.

$2000/3000 Note: Mostly known as a painter of religious subject matter and Civil War scenes, Johannes Oertel became an ordained Episcopal minister in 1871. In 1882 Oertel moved his family to Florida where he built a sawmill and bought land for an orange grove near Orange Springs in Marion County. His plan was to allow his sons to run the businesses while he devoted himself to painting full-time. “Team of Oxen Pulling a Logging Cart” was executed during this time. Oertel’s Florida art career was cut short when the business ventures did not pan out leaving this painting to be one of the few genre scenes to emerge from this period.

348. Marie Atkinson Hull (American/Mississippi, 1890-1980), “Rocky Shore”, oil and mixed media on canvas, signed lower left, titled en verso on stretcher, 36 in. x 30 in., framed. $4000/6000 Provenance: Acquired from the artist by the current owner.

Note: Marie Hull’s style as a painter successfully matured into full abstraction. In the 1950s and 1960s she created a body of work utilizing forms of the full rainbow of colors to create her compositions. Hull often titled her paintings so the viewer is given insight into what is being depicted. The work offered here, entitled “Rocky Shore“ is a vibrant canvas in which bright shapes of white, yellow, red and orange are framed by brown, green, blue and amber forms.

Interestingly, and rarely found in her work, Hull incorporates sand she gathered at the scene with the oil medium, creating a visual texture to the painting.

However, he was still including the Cajun swamp scenes with oak trees and Spanish moss in the background of most of his paintings.

Mortenson took the photograph of McCrady used in the frontispiece of the catalogue John McCrady 1911-1968.

New Orleans Museum of Art, 1975.

Note: John McCrady created this recently discovered painting,

“Three Ages of Man”, in 1939, the same year he completed “Oxford on the Hill”, his last work for the Federal Art Project. During this time, McCrady received great critical claim and experienced commercial success for these important American Scene works. Like his other Mississippi panoramas of this period, “Three Ages of Man” has alluvial rippled hills and undulating clouds that conjure images of angels and spirits. In the foreground, an infant is bathed in bright light on the edge of a bluff. In the right middle ground, a couple stands with their backs to the viewer, in the shadow of a dark cloud looking into an unknown future. An elderly bearded man is seated on the ground and seemingly reflects upon the attenuated tree of life, the red drapery and the infant.

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 a reasonable time 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.
