SL OANE E SSTREET AUCTIONS

Sloane Street Auctions is delighted to introduce our July 1st Sale which includes what can only be described as iconic masterpieces. Following our two successful sales earlier in 2022, the July 1st summer sale selection includes masterpieces throughout the ages; from antiquity to present day. We welcome Louise Proud to Sloane Street auctions. formerly head of Philips auctioneers photographs department for many years. Loulou is heading our photographs department and had found some truly great photographs for our summer sale. Foremost, we are incredibly grateful for our wonderful sellers who have consigned these often unseen treasures to us. Although coming from far and wide, many of our star lots in this sale have been living just a stones throw away in our neighbourhood of Chelsea and Belgravia. The captivating Cedric Morris (Lot 127) and the breathtaking Sir Joshua Reynolds portraits (Lot 70) have lived in Chelsea for decades. Incredibly, the pendant pair of portraits is the last pair of Turquerie portraits in private hands by Reynolds and are a groundbreaking addition to our auction. They were purchased by Sir Austin Harris in the 1930’s and have stayed in the family since/ Similarly, the early 17th century Mona Lisa on panel (Lot 86) has come to us by family descent from one of our local friends, bought by his father, the great Somerset de Chair, a former Member of Parliament and art collector with a discerning eye. Such early copies of the Mona Lisa have been explosive on the auction market in recent years and are a testament to the immovable aura of the image in both today’s society and 17th century Europe. Stephanie Hoppen is another London and Chelsea based consigner that we are incredibly grateful to. Her astounding eye for the unusual and special led her to collect iconic pieces from many cultures and places in her travels. Stephanie’s wonderful collection plays a key part in our auction and we draw our bidder’s eyes to Lots1, 2, 102 and 123. Sculpture plays a key role in our auction - with ties to both the classical and the contemporary. Our Maillol statuette, sold for 5000 guinneas in the 70’s, at Sotheby’s has a timeless beauty. Gauguin’s Oviri is archetypal in the explanation of both himself and his art. The Oviri sculpture is Gauguin’s interpretation of the Tahitian goddess of death and mourning. Acknowledged as a masterpiece, in 1987 the original entered the collection of the Musée d’Orsay. Our cast is from the beautiful Valsuani foundry and follows Gauguin’s written wish to have Oviri cast. His savage and artistic soul laid bare in this piece and following his instructions another cast of Oviri adorns his grave in Tahiti. Ours is number 12 of 12. Coming from another private collection brought directly from Marina Picasso in 2008, the three Picasso ceramics are very special. 8MQIPIWW ]IX KVSYRHFVIEOMRK WMQYPXERISYWP] %PP XLVII EVI YRMUYI [SVOW F] 4MGEWWS RS HSYFX SRI SJ XLI QSWX MR¾YIRXMEP EVXMWXW SJ all time - two of which are shown with Picasso in the photograph (page 98 and 99)The doubled headed incised white terracotta vessel is not only one of Picasso’s largest unique terracottas but also one of his most important to come to auction.

The fashion magazine Vogue didn't want the way in which I was thinking; we can't divide fashion from the way we live, we don't just have teenage girls leaning over pianos...we all dress, we are all good people and I thought why can't I merge everything I feel socially and about the way we live in to a fashion story.

Heinz Hajek-Halke was a German photographer known predominantly for his ground-breaking experimental techniques and his exquisite manipulation of photomontage. His work has been heralded in Europe; namely France and Germany since almost the beginning of his photographic career when his innovative use of light and his dedication to the photogram became synonymous with the term ‘Subjektive Photographie’. Although he gained initial success and his work was widely published he kept himself exclusive and VIGPYWMZI ,I VIQEMRIH WSQI[LEX SJ ER SYXWMHIV EW ER EVXMWXMG ½KYVI TVIJIVVMRK XLI GSQTER] SJ XLI aerial photographer Willy Ruge (from whom he learned many photographic tricks) to the colourful personalities of his peers such as the Hungarian photographer Martin Munkàcsi or the German news reporter Erich Salomon.

Outside of the current lot, four other prints by Constantin Brancusi of La Table du Silence à Târgu Jiu, Romania 1938 are known to exist: three prints are held in the collection of the Centre George Pompidou, Paris and one print is owned privately. £60,000 -80,000

λ

The Table of Silence, Târgu Jiu is one element of a three-part commissioned ensemble which together with the Gate of the Kiss and the Endless Column formed a poignant homage to local fallen heroes. The monument, commissioned by the Women’s League of Gorj, whose president was Aretia Tă t ărescu, the Prime Minister’s wife, was to be a memorial to those who had lost their lives in 1916 defending the town against a German force. The commission had originally been offered to the sculptor Milita P ătra ș cu, who was familiar with designing monuments but Pă tra ș cu, she had studied with Brancusi in Paris from 1919–23 and suggested that her friend and former teacher would be the person to undertake this honour. Brancusi accepted the commission and seems to have begun work in 1935.

In the Autumn of 1937, he began to carve the Table of Silence composed of a large plate superimposed on a smaller TPEXI 8LI XEFPI MW QEHI SJ E TSVSYW PMQIWXSRI [MXL XLI WXSSPW FIMRK QEHI SJ E WMQMPEV FYX ½RIV WXSRI -R RSX LETT] [MXL XLI VIWYPX LI FIKER E PEVKIV ZIVWMSR SJ XLI ½VWX EXXIQTX ¯ &VERGYWM [EW WXMPP HMWTPIEWIH ERH GSQTSWIH XLI ½REP XEFPI [LMGL RS[ WXERHW MR XLI TEVO SJ XLI YTTIV TPEXI SJ XLI ½VWX EXXIQTX [MXL XLI YTTIV TPEXI SJ XLI WIGSRH EXXIQTX ¯ XLI discarded parts form another table placed elsewhere.The table is surrounded by 12 stools which are now situated about three feet from the table.

The table is however very much a stone version of the large plaster table in Brancusi’s studio, similarly versions of his studio table also served as the base for Leda, the Fish and the Seal. Brancusi’s attitude to the purpose of photography was in many ways contemporary – he recognised it as immediate, ¾I\MFPI ZIVWEXMPI ERH EFSZI EPP LI IQFVEGIH MXW EFMPMX] XS TVSHYGI QYPXMTPIW YWMRK XLMW TVEGXMGI XS VITPEGI XLI XVEHMXMSREP drawing. He could satisfy his incessant need to make portraits of his works, using whatever camera he could lay his hands on. Not technically trained as a photographer, the prints Brancusi ‘crafted’ contain an indelible rawness and energy which is particular and individual.The proportion of negatives shot to the amount that were printed was far far greater making the prints extremely rare, with many now being held in museums rather than private collections. For Brancusi the portal of photography meant he could see his works in the making and if necessary, could then amend them no matter how large the subject as proven here.

For Constantin Brancusi the camera was a versatile means to an end, a way of preservation, allowing him to fix his sculptures in time through a lightweight two-dimensional reproduction, creating another type of ‘life’ and audience for his works.

Turquerie was the Orientalist fashion in Western Europe from the 16th to 19th centuries for emulating aspects of Turkish art and culture. This phenomenon became more popular through trading routes with the West and increased diplomatic relationships between the Ottomans and European nations. The ‘Oriental’ Turkish costume was quickly adopted by elegant European sitters as a reference to their worldliness and internationalism. British historian and anecdotalist Joseph Spence, for instance, spoke with great admiration of John Montagu, fourth Earl of Sandwich, who extended his grand tour in the late 1730s to the Ottoman Empire: ‘A man that has been all over Greece, at Constantinople, Troy, the pyramids of Egypt, and the deserts of Arabia, talks and looks with a greater air than we little people can do that have only crawled about France and Italy’. As such, the 18th century marked the apex of ‘turquerie’, with Sir Joshua Reynolds too engaging in painting a few of his sitters in the sought after turquerie dress (see Reynolds’ portrait of Mrs Baldwin, 1782). The present pendant portraits depict the Rev William Lloyd and Mrs Elizabeth Lloyd (née Snyed) of Aston Hall, Oswestry and are probably one of, if not the, marital portrait of the couple as they were painted the same year of their marriage. The Reverend and Mrs Lloyd married in February and there is documentation of appointments with 'Mr Loyd' in 1757 on Mar. 24 (2 0'clock), 28 (midday); 30 (either at eleven or at three, cf. Mrs Lloyd) and Apr. 2 (at 10). There is a cancelled appointment with either Mr or Mrs Lloyd on Apr. 1 (at two).

The paintings have been in the family of the vendor since the 1930s, with letters existing from the Dowager Sackville (April 16, 1929) regarding the sale to Sir Austin Harris (family of the vendor) regarding the purchase of Elizabeth Lloyd. The pair of portraits were separated and then reunited by Sir Austin. The Reverend Lloyd was sold by Rothschild, 1931 and purchased by Parker - then to Sir Austin Harris.

This striking and exceptionally rare portrait of an English merchant was painted by an artist from Bruges around 1585.

At the end of the 15th century, trade in the port of Bruges turned Flanders into the wealthiest region of Northern Europe. The city of Bruges itself became one of the seats of the Burgundian court and the nobles and rich traders were able to commission artists, creating a class of highly-skilled painters and musicians who were sought after around the continent..

Both portraits are attributed to an unknown Anglo-Flemish painter and share the meticulous and realistic treatment of dress, especially the collar. The portrait of Prince Arthur, however, is still rooted in the earlier native medieval tradition whereas that of the merchant betrays a more developed, sophisticated approach of a highly trained artist active in the last quarter of the 16th century. This is particularly evident in the highly nuanced treatment of the facial tones and the three dimensional qualities of the portrait as a whole. As an example of portraiture in England in the late 16th century, Portrait of a Merchant with an Earring is an invaluable document.

This early copy of the ‘Mona Lisa’ considered by some to be 16th century (see Leonardo Da Vinci’s Earlier Mona Lisa, illustrated P. 115, No. 2) is of a rare quality and in an exceptional state of preservation. Painted on oak panels, the paint surface has survived mostly intact and maintains a clarity sadly absent in the original and various other copies.

Although never realized in their intended form, both the text and the ten woodcuts for Noa Noa survive among Gauguin's seventy-eight printed compositions in woodcut, etching, and lithography. The Noa Noa woodcuts illustrate everything that drew Gauguin to printmaking. Although the woodcut had seen a modest revival in the nineteenth century, no example matched the audacity of Gauguin's approach to the medium, which allowed him to work on a natural, "primitive" matrix, creating works that combined the sculptural gouging of his carved wood low reliefs with the evocative color of his paintings. It also provided seemingly endless opportunity for experimentation. Gauguin printed Noa Noa blocks with various inkings and color combinations, on different papers, and sometimes slightly off-register to create a blurred, dreamlike image, as in The Gods. In addition to the Noa Noa woodcuts printed by the artist, impressions were also pulled by the professional printer Louis Roy during the artist's lifetime; others were produced posthumously by Gauguin's son, Pola, and by others.

What we do know is that in the Late Formative era a number of urban centres arose in central Mexico. The most prominent of these appears to have been Cuicuilco on the southern shore of Lake Texcoco. Scholars have speculated that the eruption of the Xitle volcano may have prompted a mass emigration out of the central valley and into the Teotihuacan valley. These settlers may have founded or accelerated the growth of Teotihuacan. Other scholars have put forth the Totonac people as the founders of Teotihuacan.

The feathered headdress of Mesoamerican cultures was made from quetzal feathers. The resplendent quetzal was considered divine, associated with the “snake god”, Quetzalcoatl, by Pre-Columbian Mesoamerican civilisations. Its iridescent green tail-feathers, symbols for spring plant growth, were venerated by the ancient Aztecs and Maya who viewed the quetzal as the “god of the air” and as a symbol of goodness and light. The Maya also viewed the quetzal as symbolising freedom and wealth; this was due to their understanding that quetzals died in captivity, as well as the value which the Maya assigned to their feathers. Mesoamerican rulers and some nobility of other ranks wore headdresses made from quetzal feathers, symbolically connecting them to Quetzalcoatl. Since it was a crime to kill a quetzal, the bird was simply captured; its long tail feathers were plucked and it was set free. In several Mesoamerican languages, the term for quetzal can also mean precious, sacred, or erected.

Lot 132 Gauguin, Paul (1848 - 1903) Oviri, 1893 - 94 Bronze, Height: 74.3cm, 29.2 in Edition 12/12 Conceived circa 1893 - 1894 This work was fully authorised by Gauguin in a letter to Ambroise Vollard (see accompanying letter). The bronze versions were cast c. 1955 in an edition of 12. One of the bronzes is placed on his grave in Tahiti. Another of the bronzes was sold in 2006 by Christie’s New York for $251,200. Gauguin wished to have Oviri on his grave, suggesting its importance. Oviri itself communicates Gauguin’s anarchic and uncompromising beauty; a very personal totem. £80,000-120,000 Oviri is the name of the goddess of mourning in Tahitian mythology. It is also the title of a traditional Tahitian song that tells of the love and longing between two women whose restless hearts grow cold and silent to each other. Before it was embodied as Gauguin’s last sculpture and masterpiece, Oviri was one of the inner images in the artist’s “little world of friends” that spiritually invited and eventually took him to Tahiti. 8LMW YRGPEWWM½EFPI TMIGI 3ZMVM PMXIVEPP] XVERWPEXIW EW ±WEZEKI² MW PIERMRK SR LIV mysteriously long and thick hair that curiously leaves the back of the head open. She is depicted as indifferently killing a fox while dispassionately caressing its cub thus communicating “life in death”. With its disturbing physical features as well as its unusual posture, Oviri appears as a strange amalgamation between a wild human being and some unknown creature. Gauguin hints at his empathic connection to the remarkable and unique rigidity of Oviri as if it is part of his inner self: “I am a savage in spite of myself.

Here, we see recounted the martyrdom of forty Roman soldiers of the Legio XII Fulminata. The soldiers are thought to have been martyred in 320 near the city of Sebaste (modern day Turkey). They were victims of the persecutions of the Emperor Licinius. Bishop Basil of Caesarea (370 - 379) provides the earliest extant account of their martyrdom. The forty soldiers who had openly confessed themselves Christians were condemned by the prefect to be exposed naked upon a frozen pond near Sebaste on a bitterly cold night. Among the confessors, one yielded and, leaving his companions, sought the warm baths near the lake which had been prepared for any who might prove inconstant. Upon immersion into the cauldron, the one who yielded went into shock and immediately died. One of the guards, Aglaius, was set to keep watch over the martyrs and beheld at this moment a supernatural brilliancy overshadowing them. He at once proclaimed himself a Christian, threw off his garments, and joined the remaining thirty-nine. Thus the number of forty remained complete. At daybreak, the stiffened bodies of the confessors, which still showed signs of life, were burned and the ashes cast into a river. Christians, however, collected the precious remains, and the relics were distributed throughout many cities; in this way, veneration of the Forty Martyrs became widespread, and numerous churches were erected in their honour.
