Odalisques were Matisse’s primary subject during the period in which the artist kept a studio in Nice from 1917-30. His principal model during the period, Henriette Darricarrère, was depicted over and over again, posed in specially staged areas filled with exotic pillows, objets d’art, embroidered cushions, screens, carpets and furniture evocative of a harem setting. Although obviously lacking the lush, bright colors of his oils and pastels of this period, Matisse’s drawings and prints are no less expressive; rather, the monochromatic medium allows his facility with pen and ink to shine. Various marks, textures and shading suggest patterns found in exotic,

Moroccan inspired furnishings, while the figure itself, with its sensual, relaxed curves, is rendered with only a few dynamic lines. With her arm draped langorously overhead and dressed in an exotic blouse and loose, draped pants, the subject is dressed in attire typical of the women the artist had seen during his travels in Morocco and Algeria. As in so many of his sculptures, paintings and drawings of this period, Matisse’s reclining female subject is presented here as cooly confident, elegant and theatrically seductive.

We are grateful to Wanda de Guébriant for her assistance in confirming the authenticity of this work.

86 132599/3 CHUCK CLOSE (american, b. 1940) UNTITLED Signed and dated 60 upper left, oil on canvas. 30 x 24 in. (76.2 x 61cm) provenance: The artist. Lee Dalton. By descent in family to current owner. $60,000-100,000 In the early 1960s, Chuck Close was an art student at the University of Washington in Seattle. Frequent trips with friends to San Francisco would expose him not only to music, theater and film but also to the work of First Generation Bay Area artists such as Richard Diebenkorn, Elmer Bischoff, and David Park. Additionally influenced by instructor Alden Mason, Close would adopt an early style that utilized the gestural, figurative style of these artists. Close was chosen to attend Yale Summer School and subsequently the Yale MFA program. Faculty in these programs included Bernard Chaet, Philip Guston, Jack Tworkov, and Al Held. Their criticism and instruction, (as well as exposure to the work of fellow classmates Richard Serra, Vija Celmins, Brice Marden, Nancy Graves and Robert Mangold) would continue to have an impression on his output during this time. The two works shown here bookmark the period between when Close was studying in Washington and New Haven. Close’s large canvases of the early 1960’s combine Abstract Expressionist and Bay Area styles in his use of figures within an abstract structure, utilization of bright colors and painterly brushwork. Also notable is the use of text, which would be a prominent and important element a year later in his provocative 1961 mixed media piece “Betsy Ross Revisited.” These works are from the collection of Lee Dalton, a childhood friend of the artist.

(9.4 x 7.7cm) provenance: The Estate of Ernestyna Schenker, New York. literature: Susan Kellog, Weaving the Past: A History of Latin America’s Indigenous Women From the Prehispanic Period to the Present,” Oxford University Press, Oxford, 2005 (similar example illustrated p. 104).

Miguel Covarrubias (1904-1957), the 20th century caricaturist, illustrator, painter, writer, anthropologist and archeologist, was Mexico’s Renaissance man. His accomplishments in these arts, as well as his revelation through images and words, give us an understanding and appreciation for the art and cultural life of Mexico.

Mexico South: The Isthmus of Tehuantepec, was published in 1946. It is a comprehensive portrayal of his native land southeast of Veracruz and of the pre-Hispanic and contemporary inhabitants. The book is copiously illustrated with drawings and gouaches by Covarrubias, as well as ninety-six photographs taken by his wife, Rosa.

that gives her a quiet dignity in contrast to the flair and stateliness of the younger girl. She is dressed in a ruffled full skirt in bright lemonyellow cotton and a geometric chain-stitch embroidered huipil with a pink ribbon bow in her hair. In the background is the Tehuantepec River with bathers and the Oaxaca mountains beyond.

One of the regions to attract Covarrubias’ attention was the Isthmus of Tehuantepec in Mexico. He spent several years visiting and studying the diverse people of the area and learned the Zapotec language in order to better communicate with his native informants.

Examining the paintings in Mexico South, one perceives the sensual aspects of Covarrubias’ art, which was always bright and lively because of his use of euphoric colors and luminous greens reminiscent of tropical landscapes.

To view this painting and the other paintings from the book as solely decorative works of art is to ignore their ideological and anthropological value and Covarrubias’ exceptional genius as a gifted documentary artist.

“Old Lady and Girl in Everyday Dress” is similar to the gouache found in Mexico South, which first appeared in Vogue Magazine in January 1942, in an article titled “Women of Fashion in Tehuantepec, Mexico.” In the foreground is an older woman dressed conservatively in a wrapped skirt and a black shawl, who carries a lacquered bowl with painted flowers on her head

In a New York Times review of the book, Diego Rivera wrote:

Nothing escaped Covarrubias’ interest. He researched everything from history, archeology, ethnology and economics to folklore, literature, music, art, religion, sexual customs and family life. What’s more, he participated in the excavation of ancient cultural sites from Veracruz to Oaxaca.

“Mexico South’s author is an artist of great value so deeply in love with the subjects which he sketches and paints, that, in order to know them more and, thus to paint them better, he has entered with devotion and intelligence and humor into everything

concerning the land which he has painted, and which is a part of his own country." [1]

Adriana Williams, granddaughter of former Mexican president Plutarco Elías Calles, wrote the definitive biography of Miguel and Rosa Covarrubias (Covarrubias, University of Texas Press, 1994).

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.
