In Focus Highlights in this sale A collected sigh of relief was audible from the vicinity of 18 Manukau Road after the April sale finally closed , and it is with considerably less reticence that the art section of the June catalogue is presented. Although there is, both , less quantity and fewer high value works in this catalogue , it remains an interesting and varied selection of quality works nonetheless. As always we 've selected a few of our favourites. Philip Clairmont's Rachel Seated set the saleroom alight when it fetched $54,000

[El Richard KIiieen, lot 352

in the December sale last year, and we believe that Interior with Chair [Al lot 355 , is an equally strong example of Clairmont's signature style. In pristine condition , the work possesses the most wonderful luminosity that has caught everyone 's eye at Webb's over the past month. The sale features three particularly important, yet divergent, works by Ralph Hotere. Song of Solomon [Dl lot 358, is a monumental and sublime response to 'man's inhumanity to man ' displayed throughout The Gulf War in 1991 . It is rare for a work of such national and international significance to become available on the open market and it will , unquestionably, make a beautiful display in the gallery during the viewing . Lo Negro Sabre Lo Oro [Bl lot 356, is part of a rich and elegiac body of works which seldom appear on the market and which challenge and critique the Renaissance dictum that the two dimensional picture

[Cl Ralph Hotere, lot 381

plane should be treated as a window onto the three dimensional world. Hotere's window paintings are among the artist's finest and most desirable works and Lo Negro Sabre Lo Oro should be well sought-after by collectors . Vidyapati 's Song [Cl lot 381 , is one of the finest burnished steel works by Hotere that we 've seen at Webb's, sumptuously showcasing the skills of a master craftsman at the height of his powers. Richard Killeen 's iconic cut-outs, of which Destruction of the Circle [El lot 352 , is an excellent example , engage with similar conceptual issues to those of Hotere 's window pictures, critiquing the perceived privileged and isolated status of the art object in society. Killeen 's cut-outs, which are deliberately sold uninstalled , [Hl Frances Hodgkins, lot 384

necessitate a level of engagment from the viewer that fundamentally calls into question notions of individual creativity and authorship. It is a long-held conviction of this author that the distinction between the primary and secondary markets remains too pronounced in this country. Thus , it is great to see more contemporary works by talented young artists, such as Andrew McLeod and Brendon Wilkinson , coming up at auction. Love Sick [F] lot 346 , by Andrew McLeod is a large and impressive work, loaded with content and personal anecdotes, it demands a level of engagement from the viewer beyond mere detached passive gazing. Peter Robinson is fast becoming one of the most important artists that this country has produced. His works are turning up increasingly on the secondary market where they continue to incite great interest. Peter Robinson is represented in this sale by several works from throughout his already-varied oeuvre, yet in particular, we believe, that SOS [G] lot 359 , is one of the most impressive and monumental works that the artist has produced. SOS comes from an important body of works which simultaneously parody, subvert and conflate the iconic 'wonky Koru' branding of - that beacon of New Zealand bi-cultural partnership - Te Papa , the Modernist borrowing/appropriation (dependant on which side of the fence one prefers) of Gordon Walters' uniquely cool abstraction , and the high-art signage of Colin McCahon, to produce , what Anna Miles terms , "a low-tech form of graphic agitation which encourages reflection on the fate of liberal criticism". This catalogue is perhaps however most blessed by a wealth of quality early and mature Modernist art by New Zealand 's most important female painters including Frances Hodgkins, [HJ lot 384 , Adele Younghusband , [I] lot 414, Doris Lusk, [J] lot 382 , and Louise Henderson [K] lot 351. Although they may seemingly share little stylistically there remains a warmth and softness of touch exhibited throughout these respective artist's works which suggests a woman 's touch - albeit a strong and independent one.

International Report Here at Webb's we sometimes shudder at the thought of introducing onto the market three or four million dollars worth of artwork on one evening , yet recent events in the world art market capital of New York suggest that maybe we needn 't. On three consecutive evenings - May 10th, 11th, 12th - Sotheby's, Christie's and Phillips sold a combined total of US $225 million (NZ $316,733,000) of Modern and Contemporary art, in the process setting numerous new auction

New Zealand Pinot Noir praised In the April issue of Sotheby's glossy Preview publication , Serena Sutcliffe, Master of Wine and Head of Sotheby's International Wine Department writes in an article headed Kiwi Pinot Nair: "Early 2004 was always going to be the time when the wine trade judged, and made their first purchases of the 2002 vintage in Burgundy. By way of limbering up, The Institute of Master of Wine organized an international Pinot Noir seminar in London showing wines of Burgundy, Oregon and New Zealand where the latter triumphed. I do not think that these wines are necessarily Pinots to keep , but who is carping when they give so much pleasure now."

Going Going Gone ... Fine Art in April

The quantity and quality of art which Webb 's presented to the market in the April catalogue resulted in an absolutely packed room on sale night, where even standing room was in short supply. Highlights and record prices were many, but perhaps the best place to begin is with The Venus Group who , after ten years of collecting and supporting Contemporary New Zealand art and artists, were reluctantly disbanding their collection. Of the thirty six works included in the collection , thirty five sold. There were many highlights

and many new record prices were set including: Heather Straka ($3,700), David Shennan ($3,800), Judy Millar ($5100), Saffronn Te Ratana ($5,000) , Kazu Nakagawa ($4,500) , Paul Dibble ($40,000) , Simon McIntyre ($16 ,500) , Leigh Martin ($3 ,000) , Neal Palmer ($3 ,250) and Elizabeth Thomson ($7,500). These results, coupled with the extraordinarily high clearance rate , resulted in fifteen very happy collective members! Record prices were , in fact, in abundance throughout the sale and further to the expansive list from The Venus Collection , new New Zealand auction records were established for Michael Parekowhai ($9 ,250), Jacqueline Fraser ($10,000) , Adele Younghusband ($38,000), Stephen Bambury ($20 ,000) , Dick Frizzell ($35,000) , Patrick Pound ($3,000), Jonathon Organ ($4,000), Allen Maddox ($37,000) , Richard McWhannell ($12 ,000) , Peter Peryer ($3,400), Laurence Aberhart ($4,600) and Anne Noble ($2 ,800). Works by New Zealand 's preeminent artist, Colin McGahan, remain eagerly sought after at 1. Michael Parekowhai

Renowned Wellington antiques expert and interior designer,

$1,300!

Campbell Moon has been invited to produce and co-ordinate this event with particular focus on showing how antiques can be incorporated with today 's art and design trends. Mr. Moon says he is "excited to be involved in this high quality exhibition , particularly as current world trends show a slowing down of a solely minimalist aesthetic and a revival of antique furniture". He goes on to say that he "firmly believes the two can happily sit side by side. There appears to be no boundaries when dealing with different periods as long as there is underlying quality throughout. " All of the art and antiques on display will be provided by members of the NZADA, including items from several South Island dealers. With everything exhibited being offered for sale, this will provide an opportunity not to be missed.

Going, Going, Gone ... Specialist A2 sales in May The high interest and demand for the Chinese furniture offered in May was a reflection of the quality and age of the pieces on offer. With so much modern and reproduction Chinese furniture now available in this country, it is pleasing to note that buyers can distinguish between the modern copy and the genuine article. The saleroom was bouyant, nearly every piece sold under the hammer and the prices were , in most cases, falling between the estimated range . Given the reasonably conservative estimates, these prices still represented excellent buying .

Temple doors

A rather special and unusual pair of temple doors, illustrated above , caught the imagination of buyers who could see them incorporating well into an interior, selling for $3,000 against an estimate of $1,600-$2 ,000. The pair of impressive black lacquer cabinets , one illustrated left, decorated with gilded dragons, a detail of which was used to illustrate the cover of the catalogue, were much admired and sold for $4,400 against an estimate of $3,000-$4,000 . The more useful Black lacquer cabinet

pieces were the most sought after with altar tables , cabinets and chests all selling well.

Taxidermy The staff at Webb's regularly handle the sale of all manner of items, from the commonplace to the rare and from the ordinary to the bizarre , and yet, an entire sale of taxidermy animals , skins and horns was certainly one of the strangest specialist sales in Webb's history. The huge demand and high prices achieved surprised us all. Given that some may find the process of taxidermy disagreeable and the result less than appealing , the viability of a specialist sale of this material was initially under question. We needn 't have worried as the scarcity and curiosity of the pieces together with their overall excellent condition , attracted buyers from far and wide. The larger full bodied animals were of particular interest; the leaping lion (lot 66) sold for $9,800 against an estimate of $4,000 - $6 ,000 and the Musk Ox sold for $6,700 against an estimate of $4,000 - $6,000. Across the board, almost all of the lots sold for within or above their estimates making for very pleased vendors indeed.

Louise Henderson Samoan Woman oil on canvas signed and dated '54 520 x 1005mm Provenance: Purchased by the present owner's mother from the artist's solo exhibition at the Architectural Centre, Wellington (May - June 1955) Exhibited: Louise Henderson: The Cubist Years (1946- 1958), Auckland City Art Gallery, August 1991 $22,000 - $30,000

Louise Henderson's contribution to New Zealand Modernism is a fu ndamental and invaluable one. In fact, Henderson is one of the key figures in a 195Os flowering of the Modern. McCahon, not an individual easily prone to hyperbole, remarked in a 1950 Home and Building essay, that although her works might seem strange at first... "we should look at them as the scientist looks at the minute world in a drop of water, prepared to accept the new aspects of reality, rather than turn away from discovery, fearful that past theories may now be invalid." Cubist-inspired painting featured predominantly in the Auckland art scene of the 195Os with works such as McCahon's On Building Bridges (1952), Milan Mrkusich's City Lights (1955) and Henderson's accomplished Samoan Woman - before you now, heralding the belated arrival of French Analytical Cubism and international Modernism with great style and lucidity. In the years preceeding the painting of Samoan Woman, Henderson, at the behest of her mentor John Weeks, travelled to London and on to Continental Europe and Paris where she studied under renowned Cubist, Jean Metzinger. Upon her return, she conflated her new-found formal and structural concerns with local subject matter in a small and highly sought-after series depicting Maori and Polynesian subjects. Perhaps however, Samoan

Woman shares most in common with the resplendent Portrait of Betty Curnow painted in the same year. Both employ non-specific lighting and a rythmic interplay of shapes and forms to create an inherent sense of fl ux, harmony and balance . Moreover, in both paintings the sense of space is dependent on the profile of the subject, who is the ostensible focus of both compositions. Henderson's style of Cubism has been labelled decorative, and although her concern is not with breaking down forms to the unrecogniseable extent of much Analytical Cubism, such a comment should not be construed negatively. Rather, we should celebrate, indeed as Samoan Woman does, Henderson's uniquely successful marriage of subject matter, design and form. Ben Plumbly

Philip Clairmont Interior with Chair oil on unstretched canvas signed and dated '78 930 x 1495mm

$50,000 - $60,000

In the essay which made him joint winner of the 2004 Landfall Essay Competition Martin Edmond talked about the way certain art and literary reputations act as haunted houses within the New Zealand psyche. Edmond regards the late Philip Clairmont's art, along with the Taranaki gothic fiction of Ronald Hugh Morieson , as having a capacity to stir dark and hidden depths within the supposedly familiar and normative. The more time that elapses since the artist's tragic death by suicide in 1984, the more the weird intensity and mannered stylistics of his paintings appear as fierce and brittle crystallisations of a social and cultural era whose imaginative life compels us by its glaring difference from our own. The counter-cultural lifestyles, manifestoes and mythologies of the 1960s and 1970s, so easily sloughed off and patronised by more worldly and 'knowing' versions of 1980s and 1990s social and economic philosophy, are now being revisited. In the current era of exponential globalisation and the persistent assertion of system and efficiency over the local and the individual , paintings such as Clairmont's appear as almost forbidden reminders of syncretic fantasies and an anarchic individualism. Overtly or implicitly, Clairmont made images that look back at us, and his paintings of objects look back at us with as much disturbing intent as do his portraits. Many of his works are ful l of eyes, sometimes they are small and spread through the painting like seeing vents, what Jackson Pollock called 'eyes in the heat' . In Interior with Chair the eye is large with yellow !ashes and a labial iris, as if the gaze of an ancient sun-goddess has been miniaturised within a domestic landscape of ecstatic, psychedelic transformation. The chair, an art deco item with zig-zag and slash patterns and relic of the archetypal bohemian student flat, bucks and twists its tubular steel frame and fluted upholstery. The looping, dry-brushed gleam of the chair frame's chromed steel is a modest homage to the painting of Francis Bacon, which Clairmont had fervently admired since receiving a book on Bacon from his mother at the age of 15. Rather than a tortured figure caught in the shudderings of some private drama, as we find suspended between bars and rails in numerous Bacon paintings, Clairmont gives the animistic chair the title role. Like other great paintings by Clairmont such as The Scarred Couch: The Auckland Experience, Butterfly Mirror with Violet Flowers, various Fireplace paintings, Staircase Triptych 36 Roy Street, and Don't Look, Interior with Chair is a wonderfully paranoid painting of the world of things

endowed with prescient intelligence and rapacious energy. Allan Smith

Ralph Hotere Lo Negro Sobre Lo Oro colonial sash window, gold leaf and acrylic on glass title inscribed, signed and dated '92 1095 x 475mm $130,000 - $160,000

Ralph Hotere is one of the most sophisticated and international of our artists, a fact often obscured by the fertile mingling of an advanced Modernist aesthetic with a do-it-yourself, nuts and bolts Kiwi practicality. His infatuation with materiality and the nature of materials similarly transcends the Modernist obsession with form to engage extraneous political, social and environmental issues. Lo Negro Sabre Lo Oro translates as 'the black over the gold' and is a particlarly fine example of the manner in which Hotere's seemingly most abstract and non-mimetic works enagage with the world around us. As Louise Wilton writes: "Hotere's work, although a style of Modernism, moves beyond the latter's usual retreat from social and worldly affairs". Despite the apparent literalness of the title, Lo Negro Sabre Lo Oro is replete with such social and worldly concerns. Black and gold are two colours rich in both metaphor and history. Black is a colour which Hotere has spent decades dredging , refining and extrapolating all manner of philosophical, scientific , moral, political and aesthetic meaning from. Similarly gold - and it is the material itself which is present in this work - has a chequered history with a habit of bringing to the fore some of the less appealing aspects of human kind. In Lo Negro Sabre Lo Oro it is the gold which provides the richest of contrasts to the black; it serves to make darkness visible, granting it texture, depth, tone and substance, in a manner not disimilar to the primary coloured crosses of the i,ermetic Black Paintings (1968), which were also painted on glass.

Both the cross and the x of negation feature heavily in this work. The cross is made visible through the quadrants of gold leaf and reappears alone in the upper right hand area of gold leaf. However, it is most heavily felt in the numerous black on black crosses in the centre of the work which appear like a series of grave sites viewed from afar through the drunken murkiness of night. A window is an object whose express purpose is for looking through, yet Hotere leaves such conventions behind - just as he does, the standard conventions of abstraction - instead adding a trademark vernacular dimension. The warm tones and grain of the wood and the quotidian essence of the brass finger lifter provide a rich counterpoint to the velvety darkness of the black and to the opulence of the gold. Moreover, the window frame serves to echo what seems to be one of the artist's primary and most reccurring concerns: to disrupt the facile distinctions between art and life, subject and object, secular and religious, and the eye and the mind.

Shane Cotton The Last Laugh acrylic on canvas title inscribed, signed and dated 2002 verso 1410 x 1410mm

Pared down and enigmatic, The Last Laugh exemplifies a bold and timely shift in Shane Cotton's work. It was one of seven new paintings included in Cotton's ten-year survey exhibition in 2003, demonstrating rather importantly that the artist wasn't about to rest on his stylistic laurels.

$65,000 - $85,000

With their brighter colours, schematic compositions and repeated motifs placed on uncompromisingly black backgrounds, the new works jettisoned many familiar features of what had become an established oeuvre. Critics commented on the slick, hardedged technique and 'Pop' references . Their imagery - targets , silhouettes of native birds and moko mokai (preserved Maori heads), sometimes used in conjunction with camouflage and rainbow-stripe patterns - is calculatedly sparse, almost opaque in meaning and yet highly provocative. The implications of using 'culturally sensitive' or tapu material such as the image of moko mokai, particularly, shows the degree of confidence with which Cotton works delve into concepts of sacredness and cultural identity. Preserved heads, whose appearance of a manic grin is probably the inspiration for this work's title, were topical at the time the work was painted because of the recent repatriation of many of these grotesque human relics from museums around the world. The Museum of New Zealand, Te Papa Tongarewa, holds many moko mokai in its collection but does not display them, primarily because this would be distasteful to Maori. Museums elsewhere have also removed them irom display in recent years. As the only specific sign of Maoridom in this painting, the tattooed moko mokai has an ambiguous status, raising complex questions of cultural ownership, colonial legacies and the renegotiation of meanings through history. Wh ile the heads may be locked away in the museum, hidden from sight, Cotton takes the liberty of bringing them to light in a different kind of context. Ben Curnow

Shane Cotton's Ahika - Blue Dream, is part of a number of

ghoulish trophy exhibits for early Eurpoeans. The seemingly

works that the artist exhibited in 2004 that witnessed the

oblique juxtaposition of these Maori symbols of loss and

spirituality with the many, many centuries-old image of

Aotearoa and back in time to ancient history. Despite this

Stonehenge, a landmark shrouded in mystery and religious

shift Cotton's work contines to engage with issues of land

wonder, constitutes a wonderfully rich and discursive dialogue

and identity. The new-found image of Stonehenge that

Ralph Hotere Vidyapati's Song burnished steel title inscribed, signed and dated Port Chalmers '83; signed and dated Port Chalmers '83 verso 690 x 690mm $120,000 - $160,000

Burnished steel warped and buffeted, split with a T-cross seam and inscribed with the most sumptuous of lyrics . This is Ralph Hotere's Vidyapati's Song, 1983, which uses words from Bill Manhire's poem to pay tribute to the work of the famous fourteenth-century Indian poet Vidyapati, known for his sensuous love songs written to honour Radha and Krishna. There is a beautiful juxtaposition between Manhire's poem to love and loss and the method of Hotere's inscription, for these words are etched with a blowtorch onto a surface that is cool and hard. It is almost as if Hotere had incited the poem to a challenge - charging the words with the sole task of transforming the plain matter upon which they are inscribed, deploying the subtle beauty of metaphor to make it sing with the fiery memory of its creation . The combination of these burnished words and the surface play of the work provide an inescapable context for reflection - both literally and metaphorically. Standing in front of Hotere's work is like glimpsing oneself in a hall of mirrors - the warped steel reflects but simultaneously distorts the viewers image and yet this reflection implicates us - if not the self we might be used to seeing then a parallel self inscribed with words describing lovers limbs, lovers eyes and lovers darkened hair. How can we not be seduced and transfixed by the work? Part of a series entitled Baby Iron these stainless steel works were described most eloquently by Janet Paul :n Art New Zealand in 1983 as works that 'gleam, effloresce, grow quietly grey ... Hotere has found an animating way to free the gesture with a poetic chemistry, allowing the flame to augment his marks and engage our spirit.' More than twenty years later Paul's words still ring true. As many readers of Vidyapati's poems to Radha and Krishna have found, good poetry filters its way into our hearts and minds. Similarly, Hotere's work does just this. It stands as an enduring song reflecting both humans and lovers. Pennie Hunt

Doris Lusk Landscape - French Bay, Titirangi oil on board title inscribed and signed on artist's original label affixed verso; inscribed Entry No. 142 760 x 930mm

French Bay, Titirangi is a landscape more commonly associated with the work of Colin McCahon. McCahon painted the bay and its surrounds in the early years after he and his wife Anne (nee Hamblet!) first shifted into a house in the area in 1953. Lusk's work, painted following a visit to her long time friends immediately recalls McCahon 's works of this period. The kauri trees that Lusk

$55,000 - $75,000

perches in the foreground of the painting , as if they were hovering on an easel in front of the bay, have affinities with some of the first kauri trees McCahon painted before their bulbous branches and upright trunks were fragmented and transformed, cubist style. Yet Lusk's composite painting is also characteristic of her landscape style. The bay, which curves around the outside of the work, gripping the interior bushscape with its cupped and sandy paws has a high frontal vantage point that veers up to the hills in the far off distance. Similarly, in Lusk's earlier landscapes - including her well known Tahunanui, Nelson, 1947, the artist displays a tendency to tilt and flatten the perspective, allowing her to paint blocks of colour and to focus on graphic details as well as capturing the effects of pattern, such as those seen in the waves of the bay and in the rounded clumps of foliage. The visit to Colin and Anne that resulted in Landscape - French Bay, Titirangi was certainly not Lusk's first visit to the couple nor the only one resulting in productive and artistic parallels with McCahon's own painting . In the early 1940's Lusk, McCahon and Toss Woollaston painted and sketched together in Pangatotara, Nelson resulting in Lusk's views of the region's tobacco fields now held in the collections of the Auckland Art Gallery and the Hocken Pictorial Collection in Dunedin . While McCahon 's views of the Pangatotara hills and landscape were pared down, concentrated on the landforms and oblivious to fragi le human settlements and interventions, Lusk's record these details faithfully and revel in their details. Landscape - French Bay, Titirangi depicts the environment with its prevalent nikau, ponga and kauri trees as well as its settlement. From the shore-bound dinghies that loaf at the waters edge to the protruding hut in the foreground , Lusk demonstrates an unwillingness to depart from illustrative elements than McCahon was to dispense with. Not the poorer for this, her landscapes articulate a New Zealand wrought with an observer's careful eye, a vision clear and unclouded Pennie Hunt

Toss Woollaston Evening Landscape with Half Moon oil on board signed 1180 x 900mm $50,000 - $60,000

Toss Woollaston once said: 'What I look at I paint. What I look at longer I paint better.' Indeed the hills of Riwaka in Nelson - where the artist lived for the majority of his life - were looked at intensely and painted with veracity. This landscape so familiar to Woollaston never lost its ability to inspire and challenge him . Like Cezanne, an artist greatly admired by Woollaston, who painted and re-painted views of Mount St. Victoire in Southern France, Woollaston returned time and time again to the problem of painting encapsulated here in the hills of Evening Landscape with Half Moon, namely to penetrate the landscape rather than to simply represent it. The painting grapples with a sense of the land's mass and volume whilst remaining painterly and modern. The background hills, marked out with panels of pigment. have a sculptural quality that conveys something of the landscapes gravity and yet this perceived depth is purely imaginative, its perspective illogical. Profoundly affected by the few lessons in painting and perspective he received from Flora Scales, a former student of the German painter Hans Hofman, Woollaston's interest in the more distant aspects of the landscape demonstrates the results of his painterly enquiries. Foreground objects, trees and grasses are reduced to sweeping forest and golden coloured brushmarks, while in the distance the hills and the moon, depicted with less apparent vigour, are mapped with brushstrokes that become like visible particles of light illuminating a landscape soaked in the warmth of a palette of ochres . Woollaston was often quoted as saying: 'I wished to paint sunlight but after it had been absorbed by the earth.' In Evening Landscape with Half Moon the sky and hills lit with the sun's reflected glow sheds light upon a work in which nature is not imitated but explored. This is a painting that, by the artist's own definition, was of a landscape truly looked at. Pennie Hunt

Frances Hodgkins The Mill House, Ponterwyd gouache signed; original Leferve Galleries label affixed verso Provenance: Originally purchased from Lefevre Galleries in 1935 395 x 540mm $55,000 - $75,000

The Mill House, Ponterwyd was first exhibited in London at the Lefevre Galleries in October and November of 1937. The Lefevre Galleries were known for their regular shows featuring contemporary French art by noted painters such as Seurat and Rousseau , as well as early British Abstraction from the likes of Ben Nicholson. Frances Hodgkins was linked to this gallery from 1931 until the end of her life in 1947. Though Hodgkins' works were not at this time as highly regarded as those of her contemporaries - and indeed their prices were significantly lower (The Mill House, Ponterwydwas modestly priced at only £15) this was not always to be the case. After a life of struggling to define her place as a modern artist, in the 1940s Hodgkins' work was finally given its due. During the period in which The Mill House, Ponterwyd was painted, many British artists were working in an abstractionist vein whilst Hodgkins herself clung tenaciously to the figurative aspects of painting. In 1934 she resigned from the Seven and Five Society (whose members included Barbara Hepworth , Ben Nicholson and Henry Moore) when it became apparent that the non-figurative style was becoming the new doctrine to which the group would adhere. Unable to fully dispense with depicting nature, Hodgkins' brushmarks may be animated, at times even kinetic, but they always coalesce into identifiable forms - here in

The Mill House, Ponterwyd the landscape is painted expressively, its wild tendrils encroaching on the foreground and surrounding the house with neuron-like branches. Paint is freely used in the work - and in many respects Hodgkins' style has affinities with Impressionism; the flurry of stained and bleeding brushstrokes is one indicator, but more obviously it is the artist's affinity with the natural environment so regularly depicted in her works which speaks of a sympathy to paint en p/ein air and as Hodgkins herself described it "get the character and essential spirit of the place in the simplest manner". This Hodgkins does most eloquently. The foreground house is covered in the dark daubs of creeping vines that are perhaps regenerating after winter, and is surrounded by hopeful trees in blossom and verdant pastures that illustrate something truly alive in the landscape and more importantly in the artist's act of painting.

Here, Lusk 1 s lightness of execution suggests not only a shimmering breeze skudding across the blue-green water but perhaps a determination to maintain a vibrant freshness . This painting was formally in the collection of Dennis Donovan, Christchurch, who worked at the Caxton Press.

Jan Jacob Spuhler

Jan Jacob Spohler

A Frozen Winter Landscape with Villagers and Windmill at Dusk oil on canvas signed 425 x 655mm

(1811 - 1866)

Jan Jacob Spohler was born on 7th November, 1811 . He studied under Jan Willem Pieneman (1779-1853) at the

$45,000 - $65,000

Amsterdam Academy and devoted his life to the portrayal of the Dutch landscape. Spohler was painting during the height of the Dutch Romantic movement in Holland (18301870) and he followed in the footsteps of the great master Andreas Schelfhout (1787-1870). As with Schelfhout, Spohler was a master of depicting both summer and winter landscapes, capturing the atmosphere of both with equal skill. The two beautifully detailed ice scenes included in this catalogue, depicting frozen waterways with many figures on the ice, demonstrate his strength in depicting the picturesque winter landscape. The fresh colours and subtle distribution of the light render a great clarity to the scenes . Firmly in the Dutch Romantic School, Spohler embraces nature as his model with an impulse to describe the activities of everyday life. The inclusion of many figures , some gathered around a refreshments stall , others cheerful ly skating on the glassy ice or at work pushing sleighs, provides us with a delightful

481

Jan Jacob Spohler A Frozen Winter Landscape with Skaters and Village Folk oil on board signed 340 x 490mm

$35,000 - $45,000

insight into the life of the times. With sensitivity to nature and a feeling for the national tradition of landscape painting, Spohler demonstrates in these works great technical sophistication and attention to detail. Spohler traveled extensively throughout Holland during his working life, living in Amsterdam, Harlem, Brussels, The Hague, Leiden and Rotterdam at one time or another. He finally returned to Amsterdam again in 1861, where passed away 5 years later. Spohler's work sold well during his lifetime and he often competed for commissions with contemporaries such as Frederick Marianus Kruseman (1816-1882) and Charles Leickert (1816-1907). Spohler had two sons who were both artists; J.J.C. Spohler, who was very much influenced by his father in his style and subject matter, and J.F. Spohler who chose the Dutch townscape as his genre.

CATALOGUE INFORMATION

A GUIDE FOR BUYERS Webb's have set out the following information for the benefit of first time buyers and those who are unfamiliar with auction procedures. Important note: Please refer to full conditions of sale for buyers printed in the reverse of this catalogue and displayed in the saleroom. Registration

All intending buyers must complete a bidding form available from the reception desk Buying at Auction 1. Floor Bidders

Ensure that you have registered and obtained a buyer number before bidding on the lot or lots you have chosen Be aware that a buyer's premium of 10%+GST on the premium, a total of 11.25% , is payable by all buyers in addition lo the hammer price. Al some sales the amount of the buyers' premium may be more or less than 10%. Please make sure that you are aware of the amount of the buyer's premium. Make your bids clear, preferably by holding up your buyer number card. If you make a mistake e.g. the auctioneer lakes a bid from you al a higher level than you had intended, or you realise that you had bid on the wrong lot, call out lo the auctioneer immediately so lhal the bidding can be adjusted. Wailing until after the hammer fal Is is too late. If your bid is the highest and the lot is knocked down lo you then you have entered a binding obligation to pay for that lot. 2. Sales Subject to Vendor's Consent

Where your bid is the highest, but still below the reserve, the Auctioneer may declare you to be the "buyer subject lo Vendor's consent". This means that your bid is held as binding and will be communicated lo the Vendor al the earliest opportunity. If the vendor accepts then there is a contractual obligation for you lo pay for the lot. If the vendor does not accept, you are released from any obligation, however you will have first right lo negotiate with the vendor through Webb's until an agreement is reached, and Webb's will not present other offers lo the vendor until your negotiations are ended.

In the absence of a reserve the Auctioneer may exercise your bid in advance of any opening bid or may open the bidding on your behalf at the Auctioneers estimate, at the Auctioneer's sole discretion. Telephone Bids

The same conditions as above apply to telephone bidders. Webb's will telephone the number you have given several minutes before the lot you have request comes up for sale. If your phone is engaged or we are unable lo make contact the auction will proceed without your bidding Our staff will ask you lo hold when we have made contact. They will then tell you that your lot is about to come up. The bids will be relayed lo you and you can enter the bidding at any time by making your call. Please note that the bidding al many auctions can be fast and furious. The auctioneer will not favour a phone bidder over and above buyers who are attending the auction by giving them more time to bid. You will need to establish your limit and make sure that you bid clearly and promptly. Telephone bids are only accepted for catalogued sales and on items with estimates over $500.

ia!H~

Pre-Sale Estimates

Estimates printed in the catalogue or given verbally are intended as a guide only and can be subject to revision nearer to the time of a sale. Webb's staff are available during pre-sale viewing times and by appointment to assist prospective bidders with estimates and any aspect of the auction procedure. Condition Reports

Webb's staff will provide condition reports for out of Auckland buyers. However, please note that no 6 in the Conditions of Sale for Buyers will still apply despite the obtaining of a condition report. IAAAIIGEMI

Payment

Payment for all items purchased is due on the day of sale immediately following completion of the sale.

3. Absentee Bids

Webb's will endeavour to ensure that your bidding instructions are executed, but accept no responsibility or liability for failure to do so. Lois will be bought as favourably as is allowed by bidding in the sale room and any reserve imposed by the vendor. Please note that Webb's cannot guarantee that another bidder will not be successful at your limit if, in the course of competitive bidding, someone else bids your limit first. Absentee bids are accepted by written instruction which can be sent by fax (e-mailed absentee bids are not accepted) up lo I hour before the commencement of the sale. Absentee bids will be executed on the following basis: If your bid limit is equal to or above a reserve, the Auctioneer may open the bidding at reserve on your behalf and will bid thereafter only in response to competition for the lot. If your bid limit is below a reserve, the Auctioneer may open the bidding at your limit and if there are no further bids in the room may sell to you "subject to vendor's consent".
