SOLD: $13,200 This miniature Persian Qur’an was brought to us on Free Appraisal Day. The consignor’s father was a US diplomat who purchased it as a gift for his wife in the 1950s. The octagonal banner box, set with semi-precious stones, contained an octagonal Qur’an with gilt leather covers. At auction, this unique and rare item started a bidding war that far exceeded the consignor’s expectations!

Conditions of Sale Please Note: Our Conditions of Sale have recently changed TERMS OF SALE: By registering to bid on any lot or any participation in an auction at Thomaston Place Auction Galleries (TPAG), you (the bidder or agent bidding on behalf of others, ref. par.13) agrees to be bound by these Conditions of Sale. CONDITION OF ITEMS & WARRANTY INFORMATION: Thomaston Place Auction Galleries (TPAG) makes every attempt to uphold the highest standards in the auction industry. Our goal is to consistently deliver the highest level of products and services to our customers. Our catalog descriptions represent what we have deemed appropriate to identify each object and we stand behind our descriptions as they relate to authenticity, however all items for sale are offered “as is,” and it is the bidder’s responsibility (present, absentee, phone or online) to determine the exact condition of each item. Our warranty does come with parameters and it is the bidder’s responsibility to understand those parameters fully. Please take time to familiarize yourself with what is covered and make your bidding decisions accordingly. 1) All items are “as is,” and it is the bidder’s responsibility to inspect, research, and determine the authenticity of all items upon which bids are placed. Determination of age, materials, condition, quality, authenticity, classification, purported history and perceived value, regardless of what is written or said by TPAG, is the sole responsibility of the bidder/buyer. 2) TPAG nor it’s consignor(s) makes any expressed or implied guarantees, warranties or representations in regard to the property merchantability or the correctness of the catalog or other description of the authenticity of authorship, physical condition, size, quality, medium or material, period, culture, source, rarity, importance, provenance, exhibition, literature or historic relevance of the property or otherwise. 3) The absence of any reference to the condition of a lot does not in any way imply that the lot is in perfect condition or completely free of wear, imperfections or the effects of aging. 4) Condition Reports for items may be requested up to 48 hours prior to the date of the auction. We will make every effort to answer all submitted questions in a timely manner however, we cannot guarantee that a request submitted within 48 hours will be answered prior to the auction date. Neither TPAG nor it’s consignor makes any guarantee or warranty with regards to these reports. It is the buyer’s responsibility to examine each item and make their own assessment prior to the auction. 5) All items are sold for display purpose. If electrical, mechanical

or other working parts are inoperable, even if working at the time of sale, TPAG is not liable due to the inherent nature of the age of antiques and items. 6) Goods made from or containing materials from protected species - TPAG does not accept any responsibility or liability for the sale of items containing materials from protected species or for any omissions in marketing or labeling goods as containing materials from protected species. Such materials include, but are not limited to ivory from elephants and walruses, tortoise shell, crocodile skin, whalebone, rhinoceros horn, some species of coral and certain woods. Restrictions on the importation, exportation, sale, transfer, and/or possession of goods containing materials from protected species derive from international, federal and state laws and regulations promulgated thereunder. It is the sole responsibility of the buyer to research and satisfy the requirements of any laws and regulations that apply to the import and export of property as described in the aforementioned paragraphs. All buyers agree to comply with any and all domestic and international restrictions and licensing on the trade of protected species as a condition of the sale. The inability or delay in obtaining permits, licenses or other permissions to import or export goods containing material from protected species will not constitute a basis for rescission or cancellation of the sale or the delay of payment of purchased items in accordance with these bidder Terms and Conditions of Sale. If you are not able to make what you consider to be a comfortable decision about an item or if you believe an item may be incorrectly described in our catalog, we suggest that you refrain from bidding on said item. RETURNS 7) Items may be considered for return under very specific conditions and within 30 days after the auction. It is important that you pay for and acquire your item in a timely fashion.

Our descriptions include what we deem to accurately portray an item’s general condition. However, opinions about condition can vary and as such, the auctioneer shall make the final determination in the possible event of a refund. E.

In the event a committee or review board must convene to review the item, TPAG must be notified in order to extend the time beyond the 30 day limit. Otherwise after 30 days, ALL SALES ARE FINAL. F.

In order to be eligible for a refund, the item must be returned in the same condition it was in when it left TPAG’s possession. G. In the event a refund is issued, it will be for the cost of the item, buyer’s premium and any sales tax paid.

Bo Bartlett 2125

Barton was my sons’ babysitter. She really dressed like this. Like Mary Poppins! She’d dress up on Saturdays and take the bus from Lower Merion to Center City to shop at the big stores Strawbridge & Clothier, Lits, Gimbels and John Wanamaker. I’d see her in town sometimes near my studio on Chestnut Street. I asked her to pose. She raised all three of my sons while they were in preschool. She was part of a large Catholic family. She had ten kids of her own. As each one would become school age, she brought in a “new” child from the outside so that she still had ten at home every day. All the outside kids had to be gone before her husband came home from work. He didn’t want her babysitting. She used some of the babysitting money for her Saturday shopping trips into the City.

I painted Tarmen in my studio on Chestnut Street in Philadelphia. They were rebuilding the Schuylkill Expressway, I-76, going west toward the suburbs where I lived. I saw this scene twice each day in the morning and evening rushes, often stopped in traffic, the workers with their BarberGreenes repaving the highway. It had some biblical reference. It was the first time I’d put the archetypal smoke in the distance. The police siege on the Move compound on Osage Avenue in West Philadelphia happened while I was working on the painting. Many homes were lost and folks died. One could see the smoke from all over town. I remember seeing it on my way home on this stretch of highway near Cityline. Although I posed all of the figures indoors in my studio, it was one of the first experiments with placing the narrative outdoors in the open air. Up to that point I’d only done interiors, such as the painting of Barton.

Born in Russia, moving to Moscow in 1914, Kandinsky taught at the Free State Art School from 1918-1921, becoming the head of The Institute of Artistic Culture. Social and familial upheaval led to the Kandinsky family move to Dessau, where he was soon a Master at the Bauhaus School, living (with Paul Klee and his family) in a building designed by founder Walter Gropius himself. This sketch would be from that first year in Germany, where he would remain for eleven years. Shortly thereafter his influence worlwide was cemented when he paired with Guggenheim in NYC. Kandinsky left Germany in 1933 and settled in Neuilly-surSeine outside Paris. He had already seen his work banned and vilified in the Nazi Party’s notorious exhibitions of “Degenerate Art”.
