305 11-1739/7 FINE AND LARGE ITALIAN MARBLE RELIEF PLAQUE MADONNA AND CHILD, AFTER DOMENICO ROSSELLI, LATE 18TH CENTURY
Carved to show the Madonna with a serene countenance, the Christ child beside her stood on a pillow, with landscapes beyond, red wax armorial seal and inventory numbers to verso, in a fine contemporary Renaissance style carved, gilt and painted wood frame carved to show pilasters surmounted by putti masks, with two armorial shields below. Plaque H: 25 1/2, W: 18 in., in frame H: 51, W: 44 in. Note: Domenico Rosselli received his artistic training in Florence, most probably in the workshop of Antonio Rossellino. In the early 1460's he worked in Bologna and Pisa but by the end of the decade was back working in Florence. His only dated Florentine work, the baptismal font in Santa Maria a Monte near Empoli, bears a date of 1468. Between 1476 and 1480 he worked as a designer and decorative sculptor at the Palazzo Ducale in Urbino, where his series of reliefs and stucco decoration are among his best known works. This late 18th century copy by an unknown Italian sculptor is emblematic of other works by Rosselli. The composition of a serene Madonna with standing Christ child clutching his robes demonstrates the influence of the master Desiderio da Settignano on Rosselli's work, which when compared to other known works by the sculptor has similarly wide set eyes, high foreheads and slightly oblong but round faces. These features are also repeated throughout the decoration of the Sala degli Angeli in the Palazzo Ducale, Urbino. For comparative examples of the same subject by Rosselli, see Sotheby's New York, Important Old Master Paintings and Sculpture, January 27th 2011, Lot 417; and Victoria & Albert Museum, no. SCP7591-1861.

Note: This tapestry almost certainly depicts the return of the Roman General Scipio Africanus to Rome after his triumph against the Carthaginians in the second Punic war.

H: 74, W: 50, D: 25 in. Note: Philip Bell’s father Henry founded the family business in 1736 at the White Swan, St. Paul’s Church Yard. Philip took over the firm following his father’s death in 1740. Bell commissioned Matthias Darly, the engraver who worked on the plates for Chippendale’s ‘Director’ to design a new eye-catching pictorial label in the rococo taste. Several pieces of Philip Bell labelled furniture are contained in the English furniture collection of the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation in Williamsburg, Virginia as well as a bottle cabinet purchased in 1761 By George Washington which is still on display at Mt. Vernon. Like his contemporary, Giles Grendey, Bell favored complex re-entrant panels and the use of high quality well-figured timbers. Literature: C. Gilbert, `Pictorial Dictionary of Marked London Furniture 1700-1840`, figs. 95, 96, 99.

437 11-8052/1 ALBERT E.CARRIER BELLEUSE (FRENCH, 1824-1887) L’ENLEVEMENT D’HIPPODAMIE
Bronze, greenish brown patina, signed “Carrier Belleuse”, with ‘Bronze Garanti au Titre” mark, and ‘L’Enlevement” title plaque to base. H: 25 1/2, W: 20, D: 11 in.
Note: Carrier Belleuse made his reputation with his sculpture 'Salve Regina', shown at the 1861 Salon, and his later works 'Baccante' (1863) and 'The Messiah' (1867), which brought him medals and the Legion d'Honneur. He became highly regarded by Napoleon III who would introduce him as "Notre Clodion"; however, critics have noted the lack of rational argument in his sculpture, and his work is considered by some to be decorative rather than a precurser to the modern movement as was Carpeaux, for example. He apprenticed Matherin Moreau, and notably during the 1860s and 70s he apprenticed Auguste Rodin. The present composition, first conceived in 1871, depicts the moment when the Hippodamie was abducted by the centaur Phlous, an episode from the war between the Lapiths and the Centaurs. It has been argued Rodin's influence in it is clear - the bold musculature and ripples of the centaur is characteristic of the models for Rodin's 'Vase of the Titans', and the screaming face is similar to his 'Calls to Arms' of 1878.

Therefore, all property is sold “ASIS”. Freeman’s is acting solely as an auction broker, and unless otherwise stated, does not own the Property offered for sale and has made no independent investigation of the Property. Freeman’s makes no warranty of title, merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, or any other warranty or representation regarding the description, genuineness, attribution, provenance or condition to the Property of any kind or nature with respect to the Property. 4 Freeman’s in its sole and exclusive discretion, reserves the right to withdraw any property, at any time, before the fall of the hammer. 5 Unless otherwise announced by the auctioneer at the time of sale, all bids are per lot as numbered in the printed catalogue. Freeman’s reserves the right to determine any and all matters regarding the order, precedence or appropriate increment of bids or the constitution of lots. 6 The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer shall be the buyer. The auctioneer has the right to reject any bid, to advance the bidding at his absolute discretion and in the event of any dispute between bidders, the auctioneer shall have the sole and final discretion either to determine the successful bidder or to re- offer and resell the article in dispute. If any dispute arises after sale, the Freeman’s sale record shall be conclusive in all respects. 7 If the auctioneer determines that any opening or later bid or any advance bid is not commensurate with the value of the Property offered, he may reject the same and withdraw the Property from sale.
8 Upon the fall of the hammer, title to any offered lot or article will immediately pass to the highest bidder as determined in the exclusive discretion of the auctioneer, subject to compliance by the buyer with these Conditions of Sale. Buyer thereupon assumes full risk and responsibility of the property sold, agrees to sign any requested confirmation of purchase, and agrees to pay the full price, plus Buyer’s Premium, therefore or such part, upon such terms as Freeman’s may require. 9 No lot may be removed from Freeman’s premises until the buyer has paid in full the purchase price therefor including Buyer’s Premium or has satisfied such terms that Freeman’s, in its sole discretion, shall require. Subject to the foregoing, all Property shall be paid for and removed by the buyer at his/her expense within ten (10) days of sale and, if not so removed, may be sold by Freeman’s, or sent by Freeman’s to a public warehouse, at the sole risk and charge of the buyer(s), and Freeman’s may prohibit the buyer from participating, directly or indirectly, as a bidder or buyer in any future sale or sales.

Checks will not be deemed to constitute payment until cleared. Any exceptions must be made upon Freeman’s written approval of credit prior to sale. In addition, a defaulting buyer will be deemed to have granted and assigned to Freeman’s, a continuing security interest of first priority in any property or money of, or owing to such buyer in Freeman’s possession, and Freeman’s may retain and apply such property or money as collateral security for the obligations due to due to Freeman’s. Freeman’s shall have all of the rights accorded a secured party under the Pennsylvania Uniform Commercial Code. 10 Unless the sale is advertised and announced as “without reserve”, each lot is offered subject to a reserve and Freeman’s may implement such reserves by bidding through its representatives on behalf of the Consignors. In certain instances, the Consignor may pay less than the standard commission rate where Freeman’s or its representative is a successful bidder on behalf of the Consignor. Where the Consignor is indebted to Freeman’s, Freeman’s may have an interest in the offered lots and the proceeds therefrom, other than the broker’s Commissions, and all sales are subject to any such interest. 11 No “buy” bids shall be accepted at any time for any purpose. 12 Any pre-sale bids must be submitted in writing to Freeman’s prior to commencement of the offer of the first lot of any sale. Freeman’s copy of any such bid shall conclusively be deemed to be the sole evidence of same, and while Freeman’s accepts these bids for the convenience of bidders not present at the auction, Freeman’s shall not be responsible for the failure to execute, or, to execute properly, any pre-sale bid. 13 A Buyer’s Premium will be added to the successful bid price and is payable by the buyer as part of the total purchase price.
