Antiques & Auction News - February 3, 2023

Opening at the Brandywine Museum of Art on Saturday, Feb. 4,

“Andrew Wyeth: Home Places” presents nearly 50 paintings and drawings of local buildings that inspired Wyeth time and again over seven decades of his career. The artworks in this exhibition are drawn exclusively from the nearly 7,000-object Andrew and Betsy Wyeth Collection of the Wyeth Foundation for American Art, now managed by the Brandywine. Many of these pieces have never before been exhibited, offering a first glimpse at a treasure trove that will shed new light on the collaborative creative process of Andrew and Betsy Wyeth.

Frick Receives

Gift Of Stunning

Moroni Portrait Painting Is Most Significant Renaissance Art To Enter The Collection In More Than Half A Century

The Frick added to its collection Giovanni Battista Moroni’s “Portrait of a Woman,” the most significant Italian Renaissance painting the museum has acquired in more than half a century. Complementing exceptional portraits by Bronzino, Titian, and others purchased a century ago by the institution’s founder, Henry Clay Frick, this gift from the trust of Assadour O. Tavitian is also the first female portrait to enter the Frick’s holdings of Renaissance painting. It is currently on view at Frick Madison, the temporary home to the Frick Collection.

“We are deeply honored by the largesse of the late Aso O. Tavitian, who supported the institution in so many meaningful ways. As a trustee, his leadership was defined

Places” shares the story of a remarkable immersive and intensive artistic practice that ranged across the full array of media Andrew Wyeth practiced. Over the course of a long and diverse career of many chapters, Wyeth repeatedly depicted a small group of historic houses in the vicinity of his hometown of Chadds Ford, Pa. In these weathered buildings others might have overlooked or even scorned in the face of gentrification and commercial development of the region, Wyeth found layers of emotion and association. These structures, both venerable and vulnerable in a changing Brandywine Valley, served as a means of pursuing his abiding

attention to that which lies beneath the surface of things. Through living in this landscape his whole life, he engaged in an artistic practice of uncommon focus over an extended timescale, coming to know deeply the evocative buildings in a radius of just a few square miles and rendering them in an astonishing variety of compositions, handlings and approaches. As Wyeth said, “You can be in a place for years and years and not see something, and then when it dawns, all sorts of nuggets of richness start popping all over the place. You’ve gotten below the obvious.”

Among the previously unexhibited works on view are the charming

early oil “The Miller’s Son,” painted when Wyeth was 17 years old, and the stunning watercolor “Noah’s Ark Study,” made at age 87, both depicting the same property, Brinton’s Mill. That the Wyeths came to own and restore this property for use as their primary residence is among the many contributions of Betsy James Wyeth, whose distinct role in stewarding historic properties in Pennsylvania and Maine, which informed her husband’s painting practice, is a key context of this exhibition.

This is the first exhibition at the Brandywine curated by William L. Coleman, Ph.D., the museum’s

No single comic was left on the spinner rack, nor a single work of art left hanging on the gallery wall. By the time Heritage Auctions’ sold-out Jan. 12 to 15 Comics and Comic Art Signature Auction ended, its final total was $13,508,641. For the 1,015 lots, numerous records were realized involving, among others, SpiderMan, the X-Men, Frank Miller’s take on Wolverine, Captain Marvel, Conan the Cimmerian and Little Dot and her pal Richie Rich, the poor little rich boy himself.

“By Heritage standards, this was something of a boutique event, yet prices were fantastic across the board as evidenced by the records set for several artists and such landmark titles as Amazing Fantasy No. 15, Batman No. 1 and Whiz Comics No. 1,” remarked Senior Vice President Ed Jaster. “No matter what happens in the outside world, it’s clear the vintage comic market remains resilient, while the market for

original comic art continues to exceed all expectations.”

Nearly 4,700 bidders from around the world participated in this four-day event, which kicked off with a Platinum Session that exploded with a bidding war that led to a new auction record for legendary artistcreator Dave Cockrum. He was the man who helped save Marvel Comics’ X-Men after readers abandoned Stan Lee and Jack Kirby’s team of young evolutionary

marvels in the 1970s and their books filled with reprinted stories languished on shelves and racks.

One of Cockrum’s earliest original art covers from his legendary X-Men run with writer Chris Claremont made its auction debut with April 1976’s X-Men No. 98, featuring Storm, Nightcrawler and Colossus, all Cockrum creations, and an early cover appearance of Wolverine. The art opened live bidding at $120,000, but heated bidding drove its final price to $432,000, shattering the previous record for the beloved artist set just one year ago.

The tussle over Cockrum’s gem was but a prelude to what followed. Moments later, bidders fought it out over one of the most memorable Frank Frazetta originals at auction in a while: the cover for 1973’s Signet paperback Flash for Freedom! This Frazetta piece, which renders the anti-hero Harry Flashman more cocksure cowboy than Victorianera military hero, realized $660,000. This cover painting is now tied for the fifth-most valuable Frazetta piece ever sold at Heritage, which holds all of the artist’s auction records.

Spider-Man’s 1962 inaugural swing through Marvel Comics continues to attract collectors: A copy of Amazing Fantasy No. 15 graded CGC Near Mint- 9.2 sold for $810,000, a new record for the grade. And, of course, several landmark titles realized remarkable numbers, including a Superman No. 1 graded CGC Very Good/Fine 5.0 that realized $675,000 and a Batman No. 1 graded CGC Fine 6.0 that sold for $552,000.

A copy of Flash Comics No. 1 graded CGC VG/FN 5.0, which opened live bidding at $70,000 and sold for $192,000, the second-highest price

This original cover art for the legendary XMen run from April 1976’s X-Men No. 98, featuring Storm, Nightcrawler and Colossus, opened live bidding at $120,000, but heated bidding drove its final price to $432,000.

A copy of the Golden Age Flash Comics No. 1 graded CGC VG/FN 5.0 realized $192,000.

A CGC Very Good- 3.5 copy of the 1940 debut Whiz Comics No. 1 sold for $120,000. That’s easily a new record for this grade. The highest price ever realized was $173,275 for a CGC FN 6.0 four years ago. Continued on page 7

Collector Chats With Peter S. Seibert This Week: Winter Sorting

that I have met tend to do the same. There is that moment in the dark of winter when all you see are the flaws in your collection and you seriously consider selling it all. It is out of this that dealer-collectors are born—those who decide that they cannot tolerate it all and so go into business to sell their collections.

By Peter Seibert

As a collector who has many collections, I find myself becoming introspective (usually in January) about what I have and whether I should keep it or not. Most collectors

For me, it is a chance to look at the collection objectively. Some of the many collections I have will never be complete, either because the subject matter is too broad or the price tags too high. So I will always love my Asian shipwreck cargo china but know that I will never have a complete set. Such is the fate of collecting something rare,

valuable and highly sought after. I also take time to look at my military collection. This collection goes back to my boyhood when I made that evolution from seashells to stamps to coins to military. I look at it with some nostalgia and then start seeing the myriad of fakes and bad items in it. The guilt wracks me, and I quickly shut the door. Some months back I watched a YouTube video where several military collectors were decrying how the bad eggs in the industry prey upon new collectors. I certainly saw that firsthand a long time ago, and now those items haunt me for my lack of knowledge and judgement.

Looking around the house, January can also be a month when we decide to do a bit of reshuffling of the furniture. When we moved two years ago, we put things in places more to get them out of the way than anything else. Over the last two years, we reorganized. Some broken furniture went to the basement to live forever in the lost hope that I will get it repaired. Others moved around the house looking for that perfect spot. And then there was the dining room. We have a nice dining room, but the builders of the house really struggled for places to run the hot water pipes and, in doing so, often chose good walls to run the pipes rather than those that

were out of the way. As a result, fitting furniture around the piping is challenging. However, a visit to my good friend Josh Unruh at the markets in Adamstown led to the discovery of a Dutch cupboard that fit within a quarter inch of the space. Eureka, the house was done! Or at least for now.

January is a time for introspection. Named for the Roman God Janus, who has two faces (one looking back in time and one looking forward), it is a good time to look at your own collection and decide what stays and what moves on to a new home.

“Born to collect” should be the motto of Peter Seibert’s family. Raised in

Central Pennsylvania, Seibert has been collecting and writing about antiques for more than three decades. By day, he is a museum director and has worked in Pennsylvania, Wyoming, Virginia and New Mexico. In addition, he advises and consults with auction houses throughout the Mid-Atlantic region, particularly about American furniture and decorative arts. Seibert’s writings include books on photography, American fraternal societies and paintings. He and his family are restoring a 1905 arts and crafts house filled with years’ worth of antique treasures found in shops, co-ops and at auctions.

Two New Curatorial Appointments At The Barnes Foundation

Thom Collins, Neubauer family executive director and president of the Barnes Foundation, recently announced the appointments of two new assistant curators at the Barnes Foundation, Corrinne Chong and TK Smith.

Corrinne Chong is an art historian, curator, and educator from Toronto, Canada. She served as research consultant for the 2021 Barnes exhibition, “Suzanne Valadon: Model, Painter, Rebel,” and has taught Barnes courses including The Nude in France and Hearing Painting, Seeing Music. Prior to the Barnes, she worked in the curatorial department at the Art Gallery of Ontario, Toronto, where she developed the 2020 exhibition, “Delacroix and Faust: The Good, the Bad, and the ‘Ugly,’” and served as a key member of the curatorial team for the 2019 exhibition, “Early Rubens.” In addition to her curatorial projects, Chong has taught in public school classrooms for over a decade as part of her commitment to art education and interdisciplinary pedagogy.

TK Smith is a Philadelphia-based curator, writer, and cultural historian. His recent curatorial projects include the 2021 exhibition, “Roland Ayers: Calligraphy of Dreams,” at the Woodmere Art Museum, Philadelphia;

the 2021 Atlanta Biennial exhibition, “Virtual Remains,” at the Atlanta Contemporary; and the 2020 exhibition, “Zipporah Camille Thompson: Looming Chaos” at the Zuckerman Museum of Art, Kennesaw, Ga. He is a visiting lecturer at Cornell University, where he teaches courses on cultural criticism for the Architecture Art Planning Program, and his writing has been published in “Art in America,” “The Brooklyn Rail,” and “Art Papers,” where he is a contributing editor. In 2021, he was the inaugural writer-in-residence at the Vashon Artist Residency in Washington State and the recipient of an Andy Warhol Foundation Arts Writers Grant. He is currently the 2022–23 Monument Lab writer-in-residence.

“Corrinne and TK bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the Barnes curatorial team, and we are thrilled to have them as colleagues,” said Nancy Ireson, deputy director for collections and exhibitions and Gund family chief curator.

“TK and Corrinne are uniquely suited for their roles, with TK’s specialization in the material histories and cultures of the African diaspora, and Corrinne’s deep knowledge of 19th-century French art. Both have robust backgrounds in education, teaching, and critical writing and

will help to shape our exhibitions and publications program as the Barnes enters its second century.”

As assistant curators, Chong and Smith will serve as key members of the Barnes’s collections and exhibitions team, developing exhibitions and collectionrelated content including interpretive materials for use in-gallery and on social media; contributing to publications; and leading a variety of classes, talks, and lectures. They will integrate

curatorial content into the Barnes’s broader activities in service of new educational initiatives. Collaborating across departments, they will cultivate new ways for artistic partners, students, and visitors to have enduring and meaningful relationships with the Barnes.

The Barnes Foundation is a nonprofit cultural and educational institution that shares its unparalleled art collection with the public, organizes special exhibitions, and presents programming

that fosters new ways of thinking about human creativity. The Barnes collection is displayed in ensembles that integrate art and objects from across cultures and time periods, overturning traditional hierarchies and revealing universal elements of human expression. Home to one of the world’s finest collections of impressionist, post-impressionist, and modern paintings, including the largest groups of paintings by Pierre-Auguste Renoir and Paul Cézanne in existence, the Barnes brings

together renowned canvases by Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso, Amedeo Modigliani, and Vincent van Gogh, alongside African, Asian, ancient, medieval, and Native American art as well as metalwork, furniture, and decorative art.

The Barnes Foundation was established by Dr. Albert C. Barnes in 1922 to “promote the advancement of education and the appreciation of the fine arts and horticulture.”

The Galloway Terra-Cotta Company Of Philadelphia A Brief History And Examination

By Justin W. Thomas

I was in New York City with my nephew Jason, and we ended up stopping at the Annex Markets’ outdoor flea market in Manhattan. This is where we found an ancient style terracotta planter, although at the time, I was unsure of the manufacturer but felt it was American made. Nonetheless, I set it aside on a shelf in my cellar, hoping to eventually learn more about it.

Surprisingly, while recently reading over a 52-page catalog published in 1905 by the Galloway Terra-Cotta and Pottery Company in Philadelphia, I found a number of objects that were manufactured just like this planter. According to the catalog, in part, “The gardens of Italy are the chief source of inspiration. Terracotta is less than inferior work in the cheapest stone. It is also superior in color, finish and durability to any cement composition. It is this combination of price, beauty and durability that has won high favor for our productions. We have had large displays at several of the large exhibitions, notably: The Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia, The Columbian Exposition in Chicago and the Exposition at Saint Louis. In

every instance, the highest award was given for superior artistic qualities and technical skill. The Galloway Collection of Terra-Cotta and Pottery shown in this catalogue includes many original designs and replicas from antique art adapted to our present needs and in harmony with the prevailing styles of architecture.”

Everything shown in the Galloway catalogs are copies of Greek or Roman classic design, much of which was drawn from objects displayed at the British Museum in London, among other art museums and sources. From the late 19th to

the early 20th century, the company marketed heavily with leading architects around the world.

Interestingly, Galloway was one of the premier pottery companies in America during this period, and among the company’s accomplishments was manufacturing terracotta for Grand Central Station in New York City. Unfortunately, though, that work has since been torn down.

Furthermore, the planter

made by Galloway was a terracotta fountain that portrays two small children under an umbrella, called “Out in the Rain,” bearing the maker’s mark, “Galloway & Graff, 1725 Market Street. Philadelphia.”

This object was inspired after an Italian version that was exhibited at the Centennial Exhibition in 1876. Some of the classic terracotta sculptures of figures made in Philadelphia and an urn are also illustrated in the 1876 book, “United States

About the Company William Galloway (about 1838-1913) and John Graff formed a partnership in Philadelphia in 1868 to continue an older business established in 1810 (as cited on post 1868 advertising), although not a lot is known about this earlier company. Their firm was located at 1723-1725 Market Street near 18th Street, where they specialized in utilitarian and ornamental terracotta. Nineteenth and 20th century advertising reveals they made urns, pedestals, fountains, flower boxes, sundials, benches, gazing globes and bird baths, as well as some

that we found in Manhattan is entirely surrounded with cherubs or cupids and rams, whereas similar types are shown in the 1905 catalog described with various titles. This type of design is also found with European porcelain and Renaissance art.

Among the notable objects

Centennial International Exhibition.”

The catalogs note that some objects can be purchased with or without a glaze, where some of the best glazes produced were blue, teal and green, often found today on urns standing two or three feet in height. The catalogs also state that some of the large urns are available with or without bands surrounding the interior, such as a large, unmarked terracotta urn with a glazed interior that I found in Salem, Mass., about a decade ago. Prices also varied, where most of these objects were expensive, considering that some of the forms cost as much as $100 or more each. The sophistication or the amount of decoration (such as glaze, size and added features) were typically the driving factors when considering what the object cost when it was originally produced.

Here are additional views of the planter that we found in New York City.

Heritage

Continued from page 2 There was nothing little about the Little Dot No. 1 graded CGC Near Mint+ 9.6 in this auction, as this popular book among collectors, featuring the debuts of Richie Rich and his pal Dorothy Polka, led to one of the most heated bidding wars of the entire affair. The result: a new auction record of $78,000 for this Harvey Comics key.

realized at Heritage for that Golden Age gem behind only the legendary near-mintplus 9.6 Mile High copy. Captain Marvel, too, was struck by lightning in this auction when a CGC Very Good- 3.5 copy of his 1940 debut in Whiz Comics No. 1 sold for $120,000. That’s easily a new record for this rare and historical key, whose highest price ever realized was $173,275 for a CGC FN 6.0 four years ago.

But it wasn’t only superheroes setting records last weekend or, for that matter, comic books and original art.

the enjoyment of our visitors. We had the pleasure of getting to know this compelling portrait very well in 2019, when it was one of the highlights of “Moroni: The Riches of Renaissance Portraiture,” the special exhibition that introduced this artist to American audiences. At that time, the portrait was considered one of the finest by Moroni in private hands. We are thrilled to now include it in our permanent collection, thanks to Aso’s great generosity,” commented Ian Wardropper, Anna-Maria and Stephen Kellen director.

“‘Portrait of a Woman’ was a star of our Moroni show, holding pride of place at the center of the Frick’s Oval Room. The canvas is a triumph painted at the height of the artist’s career, and its superb quality and condition are perfectly at home among the treasures of the Frick,” added curator Aimee Ng, who co-organized the acclaimed 2019 exhibition.

Giovanni Battista Moroni (1520/24–1579/80) spent his career painting in and around his native Bergamo, in

Tales. Fine copies of that historic title have long been increasing in price, but it took a significant jump in this auction, realizing $19,200. The timing is certainly fortuitous for consignors and collectors: Over

Lombardy, then part of the Venetian Republic. His portraits are celebrated for the psychological presence and lifelikeness of the sitters, as well as his extreme attention to detail, particularly to his subjects’ clothing and accessories, sumptuous fineries that signal wealth, status, and fashion.

The identity of the woman and the reason Moroni painted her are unknown. Her strong, somewhat confrontational gaze is unconventional in Renaissance portraits of women, which tend to promote a more modest demeanor. Whatever the purpose of the portrait, which probably was painted about 1575, Moroni demonstrates his exceptional skill in depicting the woman’s pink dress brocaded in silver-gilt and silverwound thread, white neck ruff, and fine jewelry, which also ornaments her hair. Of the roughly 125 portraits by Moroni that are known today, only about 15 are independent portraits of women, and this is the finest example.

Galloway

architectural decoration, which was manufactured from red and white clays found in Pennsylvania, Maryland and New Jersey.

Like other American manufacturers, Galloway and Graff perceived the 1876 Philadelphia Centennial Exposition as an opportunity to expand its reputation and its sales nationwide. The company’s display received the only commendation awarded in the field of artistic terracotta. It included vases and urns copied from examples in The British Museum, as well as full-scale replicas of statuary.

The firm’s 1876 catalog illustrates, among others, the Apollo Belvedere from the Vatican Collections, Dancing Girl by Antonio Canova and Echo by “Bailly,” otherwise known as Joseph Alexis Bailly (1825-1883), a Parisian-born woodcarver and sculptor working in Philadelphia, who taught at the Pennsylvania

Academy of the Fine Arts during this period. From 1875 to 1881, patents were issued to William Galloway for such practical earthenware products as the 1879 “porous refrigerator.” In 1876, perhaps inspired by copies of ancient Greek vases displayed in the Danish Pavilion at the Philadelphia Centennial Exposition, Galloway and Graff began to offer a full line of artistic vases and plaques based on antique models that, to judge from the regular notices published in the Crockery and Glass Journal, remained extremely popular at least through the mid1880s. Some of these were decorated before being sold, but amateur artists could also obtain unpainted bisqueware. Examples of both kinds, some of which matched illustrations in the 1876 catalog, were purchased in 1882 by the Women’s Art Museum Association for the Cincinnati Art Museum collection (although they were catalogued by the museum as a gift in 1881).

Goshorn (1833-1902), who in 1882 became the museum’s first director, had previously served as the director general of the Centennial Exposition and admired Galloway and Graff terracotta. In fact, a terracotta mask, the visage of a bearded old man in a cloth cap, is inset above the fireplace in the original director’s office of the first Cincinnati Art Museum building, which was designed by James McLaughlin and constructed between 1882 and 1886.

The firm’s physical plant was moved to Walnut Street near 32nd Street in Philadelphia in 1889 and was destroyed by a fire only five years later. But when it was rebuilt on the same site, the building reportedly included some 90,000 square-feet of exhibition space in addition to the workrooms. Operating under the name of William Galloway by 1893, the firm’s display of ornamental terracotta won a first prize at the Chicago World’s Columbian

These are various glazed urns made at the Galloway TerraCotta and Pottery Company in Philadelphia.

Trunks From Muhammad Ali’s Final Fight, “Drama In Bahama,” To Be Auctioned Feb.

14 Fight Took Place In 1981

A unique souvenir of Muhammad Ali’s final boxing match will be offered on Tuesday, Feb. 14, at Chiswick Auctions’ Autographs and Memorabilia sale in London, England.

The MacGregor boxing trunks were worn by Ali during the “Drama in Bahama,” a Dec. 11, 1981, match at the Queen Elizabeth Sports Centre in Nassau that pitted the legendary American athlete against Jamaican Trevor Berbick. Age was not on the once-invincible Ali’s side. He was 39 years old, overweight at 236 lbs, and already suffering brain damage from having absorbed too many blows. In contrast, Berbick was 27 and would go on to win a WBC Heavyweight title.

Despite concerns about his fitness prior to the fight, Ali tried putting some

inaugural Wyeth Foundation

Curator and Director of the Andrew and Betsy Wyeth Study Center. “‘Home Places’ makes use of the astonishing holdings of the Andrew and Betsy Wyeth Collection to get beyond the received wisdom about this iconic artistic life,” said Coleman “The rarely or never before seen works on view collectively show an artist of rigorous focus on a highly individual creative path: thinking with buildings and drawing out the stories that houses can tell through an iterative process.”

In his new role at the Brandywine, Coleman is responsible for stewarding the Andrew and Betsy Wyeth Collection, which is housed in the Wyeth Study Center’s two facilities: one located at the Brandywine in Chadds Ford, and the other on the Farnsworth Art Museum’s campus in Rockland, Maine, the two geographic regions where Wyeth lived and painted. Part of a new partnership between the Wyeth Foundation for American Art and Brandywine, Coleman was brought on board to oversee the study of this remarkable collection and to lead scholarship on one of America’s most iconic artists. Just one of the exciting activities under this partnership will be the completion of the artist’s catalogue raisonné–a multi-year project.

About the Brandywine Museum of Art

combinations together in the early rounds and even landed a few solid jabs, but by the sixth round he appeared tired and started getting hit. The 10-round contest, which failed to sell out, went the distance, with Berbick winning by a unanimous points decision. After the fight, Ali retired, his illustrious career ending with an overall record of 56-5.

The “Drama in Bahama” match was the only time Ali ever wore MacGregor trunks rather than examples made by Everlast. The MacGregors were presented by Ali’s trainer Angelo Dundee to his close friend Hartmut Scherzer, a German sports reporter who visited the dressing room after the Nassau fight.

The trunks are white satin

with black trim and have an elasticized waistband and a MacGregor manufacturer’s label on the front. They are expected to sell for £15,000£20,000 (approximately U.S. $18,510-$24,670).

Sotheby’s sold a very rare Moravian glazed red earthenware fish flask, attributed to Rudolph Christ, Salem, N.C., ca. 1801-25, on Jan. 19 for $138,600 (est. 12,000-$18,000). At nearly 10 inches in length, it was the largest version of these molded fish bottles/flasks most often attributed to Salem, N.C. There are three known sizes. The mottled green copper and brown manganese glazes over a yellow clay ground molded with finely detailed scales, fins, and slanted eyes and its overal condition were other factors in the price realized.
