805 Miles Walters (British, 1774–1849) The Princess Charlotte in Two Positions Inbound to Liverpool off the South Stack Lighthouse and the Holyhead Signal Station, circa 1830, signed lower right "Walters", oil on canvas, 24 x 38 in.; gilt wood and composition frame, 28-1/4 x 42-1/8 in. Provenance: Private Florida Collection Estimate: $10,000 - $15,000 The Princess Charlotte was built by Thomas and John Brocklebank in 1815. According to the National Museums Liverpool Maritime Archives and Library, "Brocklebank is one of the oldest firms in the world of merchant shipping, dating back to 1801 when the two sons of the founder of the business took control following their father's death. The founder was Captain Daniel Brocklebank, a master mariner and shipbuilder, whose shipbuilding enterprise was first established at Sheepscutt near Portland, Maine, in 1770. Brocklebank was a Loyalist and when the Revolution took place in 1775 he sailed back to Whitehaven in his own ship, Castor. Captain Daniel Brocklebank restarted his shipbuilding business at Whitehaven in 1785. By 1795 his fleet consisted of eleven vessels totaling 1,750 tons. In 1801, Daniel Brocklebank died and the firm became Thomas and John Brocklebank, later shortened to Thos. and Jno. Brocklebank. The firm suffered somewhat in the Napoleonic Wars but by 1809 it was sending ships as far as South America. By 1816 the fleet totalled seventeen ships. In 1815, the new ship Princess Charlotte's maiden voyage to Calcutta was a successful venture following the end of the East India Company's monopoly. Her return freight was estimated to realize more than £10,000 in profits for her owners and other merchants. This trade was eventually to eclipse Brocklebank's South American and China trades." Miles Walters was the father of marine artist Samuel Walters (1811-1882). They occasionally collaborated with a signature that would often read "Walters & Son".

Old Master Angelos was the most important icon painter of the 15th century, one in which the center of artistic production shifted from Constantinople, during a period of political turbulence and wars, to Candia in Crete, a territory of Venice. It is possible that Angelos apprenticed under an artist with the Constantinoplitan principles of painting but he also combined Western influences of Venetian painters within his compositions. So revered was his painting that Domenikos Theotokopoulus, better known as El Greco (1541-1614), was one of many artists to be influenced by his paintings. Until now, only twenty-two icons were known to have been signed by the artist. Scholar and author on Angelos, Maria Vassilaki comments, "This is a completely unknown icon by Angelos Akotantos, whom I qualify as a Byzantine painter working in Venetian Crete in the second quarter of the fifteenth century (1425-1450). It depicts the Descent into Hell, which is the Byzantine Resurrection of Christ. He was signing his icons in Greek: ‘ΧΕΙΡ ΑΓΓΕΛΟΥ’, which means ‘the Hand of Angelos.’ The inscription ‘angelus pinxit’, which we read on this icon, is very rare. There is one more icon of the Man of Sorrows today in the Museo Correr, Venice which is also signed ‘ANGELUS PINXIT.’ It’s highly possible that the Descent into Hell was for a Venetian client, which explains why the painter’s signature is in Latin. This was common in Cretan icons at the time of the Venetian occupation of the island.” Brunk Auctions is honored to be representing this important and rare icon. Our gratitude is extended towards Maria Vassilaki for her assistance.

T
he Master H. B of the Griffin Head is identified as someone working within the workshop of Lucas Cranach The Elder (1472–1553). Only two other signed and documented works by this artist are known to exist, one is held by the Episcopal Cathedral and Diocesan Museum in Mainz, Germany and the other by The Louvre, Paris, France. This large and detailed panel draws inspiration from Cranach himself, who created at least two compositions of this subject painted in 1537 and 1538 respectively.
The setting for this scene occurs in the Bible's New Testament as Jesus leaves Galilee and heads toward Judea. A great mass of people have followed him there including the Pharisees who were trying to tempt him. In the midst of Jesus answering their questions, little children were brought to him for a blessing. The disciples sought to protect Christ from the crowds and this intrusion but Jesus' response was both tender towards the children and a rebuke to the Pharisees and their pride and even toward his overly controlling disciples. He speaks, saying, "Let the children alone, and do not hinder them from coming to Me; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these." (NASV) Christ is depicted in the center crowded by both babies and young women dressed in fine Renaissance clothes and jewelry and likely representing patrons. A woman at the left still has her hand under her child as Christ cradles him in His arms. A male head to left represents one of the disciples whose desire to shield Christ has been over-ruled verbally and cleverly as a device within the composition. This subject, which was rarely depicted before the 16th century, "occupied a central role in reformation iconography" according to the Lucas Cranach Digital Archive.

The Skating Collection of Dick Button
26
Dick Button is widely considered one of the premiere male figure skaters of all time. He dominated the world of figure skating for a seven-year period, winning two Olympic gold medals (1948 and 1952), five consecutive World Championships, seven U.S. National titles, and four North American and European Championships. His illustrious, fifty year broadcasting career earned him the first ever Emmy for “Outstanding Sports Personality—Analyst” and the first induction into the Sports Broadcasting Hall of Fame “Sports Analyst” category. Button’s legacy in the sport extends beyond competition, performance, analysis, and production. He has built a diverse and distinguished collection of paintings, prints, posters, sculptures, costumes, and folk art that honors the long history, evolving artistry, and cultural impact of skating.

O
ld and young, amateur and skilled, rich and poor—even household pets—welcomed open ponds in uptown Manhattan. When at least four inches of ice covered the ponds, the commissioners signaled them open to the public by raising a red ball by the bell tower just south of the old reservoir at 79th Street. With “the ball up,” masses of skaters rushed to the park. In the 1865 winter season, the Spirit of the Times and the New York Sportsman recorded: It is within these spacious public grounds that the democracy of the city and its borders most do congregate . . . at nine o’clock at night, there were not less than fifteen thousand persons, of both sexes and all ages and conditions, on the grand lake. . . . And here they remained until the near approach of midnight, gambolling [sic] the happy hours away. It has been reported that sometimes the trolley car companies would put signs on the trolleys saying the red ball was up when the ice was still dangerous in order to sell more tickets.

The shanties here don’t seem to bother skaters, eager to make use of any free space for their favorite pastime. The area was soon to be polished up for skating aficionados. The New York Skating Club established its headquarters at this pond between 1865 and 1868, where its members performed for visitors on the ice. The New York Herald reported on the Club’s shows, saying: Many of the members are perfect masters of the art of skating, and their graceful motions on the ice never fail to excite the admiration of all visitors to this uptown resort.

ransportation on ice in the form of bone skates laced to one’s feet goes back thousands of years, yet skating appears to have entered popular culture in the form of recorded poetry and mythology in Scandinavian cultures only around the tenth century. Excavations in Northern Europe have uncovered early skates made of animal bones, which were polished flat on the bottom much like cross country skis. According to Robert Jones in his 1772 Treatise on Skating, the Dutch were the first to replace bone skates with iron blades in the thirteenth century. Iron skates led to the creation of even narrower double-edged metal blades that made way for moves like the “Dutch Roll,” because skaters could now push off from one foot and glide farther on the other. Once the English caught wind of the skating craze, they worked to redesign the skate and its binding in a way that would ease the execution of the small pivots and turns that were necessary to create fancy figures. In 1848, E. V. Bushnell of Philadelphia invented the strapless skate with a steel blade, which could simply clip to the bottom of one’s shoe or boot. Then, a skater need not fear the blade coming unstrapped from the shoe when skating fast or turning. In the 1860s, a pair of skates could cost as little as twenty-five cents, enabling the sport to become even more accessible to the masses of Americans flocking to nearby ponds to enjoy a turn on the ice.

The gift of an 18th century Delft Tile was what originally inspired Dick Button as a collector. The gift came from Cecilie Mendelssohn-Bartholdy, wife of legendary Swedish figure skater Gillis Emanuel Grafstrรถm. Grafstrom became an architect after skating, and like Dick Button, he collected figure skating related fine art. His wife continued collecting after his death, and that collection is now in the World Figure Skating Museum in Colorado Springs. Her gift to Dick Button of a single Delft Tile would be the beginning of his important figure skating related art collection.

The two had been associated in a large number of television productions. "The city of New York is spending a million dollars to build an ice theater and we'll be spending another million for the show," he enthused. "There'll be the longest indoor ski run in the world, Olympic skating champions, comics from Europe." "The place will look like a modified amphitheater! There'll be a proscenium stage with eight levels. That's where the ski run will be along with other acts and regular fashion shows. The ice will be in front of this, just like a thrust stage with the audience ranged on three sides of it." -Dick Button

Button" ink, matching trousers with white suspenders and attached foot straps, jacket length 16-1/2 in., trouser length 52 in. Estimate: $1,000 - $1,500
I wore a white mess jacket at the 1947 World Championships in Stockholm (and then again at the 1952 Olympics in Oslo), marking a bold change in the black outfits traditionally worn by male skaters. I wore white because I knew this was the first World Championship after World War II during a time when there were helmets still on the streets of Vienna and Prague. With little money for lighting the huge outdoor Olympiastadion in Stockholm, I felt it was necessary to be seen in the dark space and so I wore the white mess jacket. The newspapers howled, “Who does he think he is, a waiter?� The following year, multiple skaters wore white mess jackets but at the 1948 Winter Olympics the background was snow and the event was in the afternoon. So I wore black. It was all a matter of what the scene set. This beaded mess jacket was made for me to wear in the Ice Capades in 1952 as a reference to that first white jacket, which had no beads and a plain, notched collar. This was also my first year in professional figure skating, which was the shortest one on record because it was during my first year at law school.

Lussi's work with Button at Lake Placid, New York was instrumental in preparing him for World and Olympic competition. As a ski jumper, Lussi understood both flight and rotation principles.

Matt Dike (1962-2018) was a producer, writer and founding member of the Dust Brothers and co-creator of the Delicious Vinyl record label. After coproducing and co-writing the Beastie Boys hit, “Paul’s Boutique” he co-wrote and co-produced some of hip-hop’s most recognizable songs such as “Funky Cold Medina” and "Wild Thing” for Tone Loc and “Bust A Move" for Young MC. He was also a club owner and D.J. who mixed in influential circles. He met and befriended artists such as Jean Michel Basquiat, a one-time roommate, Keith Haring, and George Condo. During one of Dike’s events someone pretending to be Keith Haring drew the middle section of this work on a vinyl sleeve and forged Haring’s signature, inscribing it “To Matt”. The consignor states that, "a few years later, Keith Haring saw this hanging on his wall and said 'I didn't do this!' He then took it down and drew around it, questioning what the other person was thinking, comparing the art and signature."

Terms of Sale 1. All items are sold as is, where is, with all faults. There are no warranties or representations of merchantability, of fitness, nor of any other kind, express or implied. All items are available for your examination prior to bidding. Your bidding will signify that you have examined the items as fully as you desire, or that you have chosen not to examine them. Written and oral descriptions are our opinions and should in no way be construed as a guarantee of any kind as to age, condition, materials or any other feature of items being sold. Our goal is to provide prospective bidders with accurate and detailed information. We recommend prospective bidders examine all items in which they have an interest. If you require absolute certainty in all areas of authenticity, and the results of your evaluation leave uncertainty in your mind, we recommend you not bid on the item in question. We do not give refunds. All sales are final. No statement written or oral made by the auctioneer shall be deemed a warranty or assumption of liability by Brunk Auctions or by any seller represented by Brunk Auctions. 2. Bidding will begin at a price appropriate in auctioneer’s discretion. The auctioneer always reserves the right to withdraw a lot for any reason he deems appropriate. At the auctioneer’s discretion, no bid of less than one half the low estimate will be accepted from any source: phone bidding, absentee bidding, internet bidding, or bidding in the gallery. All lots in this catalog are offered subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum hammer price at which a lot will be sold. In executing a reserve, the auctioneer has the right to bid on behalf of the Consignor, whether by opening bidding or continuing bidding in response to other bidders until reaching the reserve. If the reserve is not met, the Auctioneer has the right to withdraw the item from the sale. 3. Once we declare that an item is sold, we cannot reopen the bidding. It is the bidder’s responsibility to get our attention prior to our saying “sold”. We reserve the right to reject any bids deemed inappropriate or to withdraw any item(s) for lack of appropriate bids. If an item is withdrawn from the auction it will be offered again only at the auctioneer’s discretion. 4. Payment must be made by cash, approved check, wire transfer, or MasterCard, Visa, Discover and American Express credit cards. We reserve the right to require bank checks for large purchases. Buyers not known to us who wish to write a check must provide a current letter of credit from their bank guaranteeing funds for that account. Credit arrangements must be made by the Friday prior to the day of auction so bank statements can be verified. We reserve the right to not issue a buyer’s number or to withhold merchandise if appropriate credit has not been established. We require wire transfers for international buyers. First time buyers will be required to pay by wire transfer or cashiers check. 5. Payment is expected at time of purchase. Payment for successful absentee, phone bids and online bids are required within five business days of the auction. Bidding on an item indicates the client’s acceptance of our Terms of Sale. Your signature on our Bid Form or acceptance of these terms through any online bidding platform constitutes permission to charge successful bids to credit cards if payment is not received within five days of the auction. 6. We are pleased to offer absentee and phone bidding for prospective bidders who cannot be present at the auction. Please complete the Absentee Bid and/or Phone Reservation form. Absentee bids are executed competitively and confidentially. All reservations for phone bidding are held in the strictest confidence and must be received by 5 pm the day before the auction. No additional phone bids can be accepted on the day of the auction including additions when speaking with a staff person on the phone. We can accept written absentee bids submitted on the Absentee Bid Form up to 30 lots before the item comes up for auction. Leaving an absentee or phone bid on a lot indicates your willingness to open the bidding at one half the printed low estimate, and gives the auctioneer the authority to open the bidding at that level. Brunk Auctions shall have the right to withdraw any item at any time for any reason and to default any sale in the event of an error or dispute. 7. In the case of identical absentee bids, the bid received first will prevail. Bids left on liveauctioneers.com are not executed until the item is offered in the live auction and the order in which they are received is not a factor. We sell 70-100 lots per hour.
Following are general guidelines for bidding increments: $0-$1,000......................$50 increments $1,000-2,000................$100 increments $2,000-3,000................$200 increments $3,000-5,000................$250 increments $5,000-10,000..............$500 increments $10,000-$50,000.........$1,000, $2,000, $5,000 increments above $50,000.........auctioneers discretion 8. In our experience, cellular phones are not always dependable, and we recommend phone bidding reservations be made on land lines. We make every effort to honor all absentee and phone bid reservations, but we are not liable for any losses incurred as a result of failure to execute absentee bids or failed phone reservations. Submitting absentee bids or bidding by phone does not imply an extension of credit. Please see numbers 4 and 5 above. 9. Purchaser agrees that packing and shipping is done at the purchaser’s risk and that the purchaser will pay in advance all packing expenses, materials, carrier fees and insurance charges. At our discretion, items will either be packed by an agent such as a packaging store or Brunk Auctions. Please allow two weeks for shipping after payment is received. Shipment of large items is the responsibility of the purchaser. We are happy to provide names of carriers and shippers if a purchaser so requests. Brunk Auctions will have no liability for any loss or damage to shipped items. 10. Note to internet absentee bidders. We do not accept cut bids, (bids less than the last interval) from the floor or from phone bidders, and we do not accept them from internet bidders. Thus it is possible that a lot could go to another bidder for less than your absentee bid. For example, if the bids are progressing in ten dollar increments, $50, $60, $70 and your absentee falls at $75, we will not take the bid since it is less than the $10 interval. We always encourage bidders to bid by phone or to leave absentee bids through our to avoid such a situation. 11. All purchases are subject to applicable North Carolina sales tax unless the North Carolina Certificate of Resale tax form is fully and completely filled out and received prior to time of purchase. Resale tax numbers from other states are accepted. International buyers are responsible for tariffs, taxes, or assessments of shipped items to the buyer’s country. 12. Bidding on an item indicates your understanding and acceptance of these Terms of Sale. If a purchaser breaches any of these Terms of Sale, including the obligation to pay for purchased items, Brunk Auctions may seek all remedies under the law including canceling the sale and reoffering the property without reserve. 13. A buyer’s premium will be applied to the purchase price of all items: 20%....Cash, check or wire transfer 23%....MasterCard, Visa, Discover and American Express credit cards 23%....Bidsquare with cash, check or wire transfer 26%....Bidsquare with MasterCard, Visa, Discover and American Express credit cards 25%....Liveauctioneers with cash, check or wire transfer 28%....Liveauctioneers with MasterCard, Visa, Discover and American Express credit cards 14. Purchased items not picked up from our auction facility within ten business days of the auction will be assessed a storage fee of $5.00 per day, per item. You authorize us to re-sell on your behalf any item not picked up within sixty calendar days. The costs of storage, plus any other costs directly related to the item, and an auctioneer’s commission of 20%, will be subtracted from the proceeds unless other arrangements have been made with Brunk Auctions. The minimum charge will be $50. The net proceeds will be mailed to your address as stated herein in full and final settlement of our obligations to you. 15. We are closed on Fridays the week following auctions. Please arrange appointments for other days. 16. Export and Permits - It is the purchaser’s sole responsibility to identify and obtain any necessary export, import, firearm, endangered species or other permit for the lot. Any symbols or notices in the sale catalogue reflect Brunk Auctions’ reasonable opinion at the time of cataloguing and are for bidders’ general guidance only; Brunk Auctions and the Consignor make no representations or warranties
as to whether any lot is or is not subject to export or import restrictions or any embargoes. 17. ◉Endangered Species - Certain property sold at auction, for example, items made of or incorporating plant or animal materials, irrespective of age or value, may require a license or certificate prior to exportation and additional licenses or certificates upon importation to another country. Brunk Auctions suggests that international buyers check on foreign governments’ wildlife import requirements prior to placing a bid. All buyers agree to comply with any and all domestic and international restrictions on the trade of endangered species as a condition of the sale. Please note that the ability to obtain an export license or certificate does not ensure the ability to obtain an import license or certificate in another country, and vice versa. It is the purchaser’s responsibility to obtain any export or import licenses and/or certificates as well as any other required documentation. In the case of denial of any export or import license or of delay in the obtaining of such licenses, the purchaser is still responsible for making on-time payment of the total purchase price for the lot. Although licenses can be obtained to export some types of endangered species, other types may not be exported at all, and other types may not be resold in the United States. Brunk Auctions is not able to assist the purchaser in attempting to obtain the appropriate licenses and/ or certificates, and there is no assurance that an export license or certificate can be obtained. Please check with our specialists if you are uncertain as to whether a lot is subject to these export/import license and certificate requirements, or any other restrictions on exportation. Please note that bidders in New Jersey may not bid on any lots containing elephant ivory, mammoth ivory, or rhinoceros horn. 18. Due to the embargo on Persian carpets, international shipping is not available. 19. Brunk Auctions makes no warranty or guarantee whatsoever regarding the jewelry, its colored stones, diamonds, other gem materials, or metals, or as to their status as natural, treated, “earth mined”, manmade or other. Appraisals, descriptions, photographs, are offered as a service and are not intended to be a complete analysis of the qualities and conditions of the jewelry.

Parties who wish to bid on premium lots may be asked to submit a deposit by wire transfer. Correspondence between prospective clients and the Auction House must be established directly with Brunk Auctions through phone, fax, or one of the relevant email addresses.

Due to the high volume of inquiries made within 24 hours of the sale, we make no guarantee that clients who contact us during this period will receive a response.
