Bob Brier, “A revealing painting by David Roberts,” The British Art Journal, November, 2004, vol. V, no. 2, p. 71, fig. 7 (illustrated). note: When David Roberts returned to Cairo in December 1838, after his long journey up the Nile, he was determined to augment his already valuable portfolio of sketches of ancient Egyptian monuments with views of the Islamic city. “Subjects of another class of equal interest remain yet at Cairo- and equally untrodden ground…. I think much may be made of the splendid mosques, the tombs of the Mamalooks, Caliphs etc.” (December 20, 1838, MS Eastern Journal, National Library of Scotland, Acc.7723/1). It was not an easy task, since a European sketching openly in the crowded streets was an object of curiosity, if not hostility: he was “jostled and stared at until I came home quite sick,” but he was hopeful that his sketches would “add to the general knowledge already acquired of the general styles of Architecture existing in different ages” (January 1, 1839, MS Eastern Journal) . Despite the difficult conditions and his bewilderment at the “extraordinarily picturesque nature of the streets and buildings

of this most wonderful of all cities” (December 28, 1838, MS Eastern Journal) he made a visual survey of many of the Islamic monuments, changing into Ottoman dress and observing local proprieties in order to draw inside the mosques. He made the sketch on which the present watercolor is based (present location unknown) on December 31st, recording in his journal: “Made one drawing today of the principal Bazaar, the best drawing I have yet taken in Cairo.” The Ghuriya, or mosque complex of Sultan Qansuh al-Ghuri, built 15031505, remains one of the most impressive Mamluk ensembles in Cairo, with the madrasa-mosque on the western side, and the khanqahmausoleum-sabil-kuttab on the eastern (see Caroline Williams, Islamic Monuments in Cairo: the Practical Guide, The American University in Cairo Press, Cairo and New York, 2008, pp. 166-168). In Ottoman times, the two were linked by a wooden roof (now restored), covering the Sharia al Mu’izz li-Din Allah, the site of the Silk Market, hence the name given to the lithograph made from this watercolor. The lithograph was included in the third volume of Egypt & Nubia, part of the Holy Land series comprising 248 tinted lithographs in total, and one of the most ambitious and successful publishing ventures of the nineteenth century.

Holy Land, 1855, vol. 1, pl. 4. note: Roberts and his companions reached Jerusalem on March 28, 1839, by great good luck, the day that the quarantine, which had been imposed on it by a plague epidemic, had been lifted. A couple of days later they visited the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, containing chapels of different Christian sects, including the Greek Orthodox catholicon, which, Roberts described in his journal as “by far the richest and is one mass of gold and carving very much in the style of that of St Catharine’s of Mount Sinai but in bad taste, the style that is usually assigned to the middle ages or more properly Byzantium. In the centre,” he continued, “is an elegant chandelier of polished steel and brass presented to them by the present Emperor Nicholas…. Immediately behind this is the chapel covering the site of the crucifixion” (March 30, 1839, MS Eastern Journal, National Library of Scotland, Acc. 7723 / 2). The following day he witnessed the Palm Sunday procession into the Church during which the Greek bishops “seating themselves on two gilded thrones on each side of the Chapel distributed a basketful of consecrated bread.” Roberts has represented the elaborate iconostasis, on the east side of the catholicon and, to the north and south, the thrones of the Greek Orthodox patriarchs. Below the

chandelier, he has also depicted the omphalos or votive vase, then thought to stand upon the spiritual and cosmological centre of the world. The next day, Roberts and his companions left to visit Jericho, the Dead Sea and Bethlehem, returning to Jerusalem on April 8. Roberts then spent several days making sketches in the city, among them the one on which this watercolor is based (now in the Harris Museum and Art Gallery, Preston, Lancashire), but he found the ruined state of the buildings distressing: “Even the Holy Sepulchre itself comes under this head, the fire in 1810 [in fact, 1808] having destroyed everything like architecture about it and it is now replaced by the most monstrous jumble of walls, arches and domes that could be put together by people just emerging from Barbarism” (April 13, 1839, MS Eastern Journal). Roberts finally left the city on April 15 to continue his journey northwards towards Lebanon. We are grateful to Ms. Briony Llewellyn for preparing this catalogue entry. $15,000-25,000

96 151177/1 LAURENCE STEPHEN LOWRY (british 1887-1976) “PEEL PARK, SALFORD” Signed ‘L.S. Lowry’ and indistinctly dated bottom right, oil on canvas 16 1/8 x 12 in. (41 x 30.5cm) provenance: The Lefevre Gallery, London. Acquired from the above. Private Collection, Pennsylvania. exhibited: “New Paintings by L.S. Lowry”, The Lefevre Gallery, London, October, 1961, no. 21. note: One of the undisputed favorite twentieth century British painters, L.S. Lowry’s northern industrial landscapes populated by half-unreal ‘matchstick men’ have been endlessly documented and dissected. His paintings are housed in numerous important royal, private, and public collections, most prominently in The Lowry, a gallery devoted to his work and located in Salford, where he was born, and also the site of the present painting. Iconic and easily identifiable in style, Lowry’s paintings featuring factories and textile mills populated by working men and women in a state of comingand-going are nowhere as naïve or simplistic as they appear on first examination. While he described himself as “a man who paints” rather than an artist, Lowry studied at the Manchester School of Art and the Salford Royal Technical College, ultimately developing his very own unique style. The throngs of ‘matchstick men’ that haunt Lowry’s canvases were, according to the artist, “[...] part of a private beauty that haunted (me). I loved them and the houses in the same way: as part of a vision.” Peel Park, Salford was one of his best loved subjects, and is here treated in the artist’s straightforward but dreamlike manner. Acquired by the present owner’s family directly from the Lefevre Gallery, it is presented at auction here for the first time. The present painting will be accompanied by a copy of The Lefevre Gallery catalogue, “New Paintings by LS Lowry,” October, 1961, featuring this work (illustrated). $250,000-350,000

Private Collection, New York, New York. literature: A. Vollard, Tableaux, pastels et dessins de Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Paris, 1918, vol. II, p.121, (illustrated). note: Shunned by the official Parisian art establishment, Renoir and his peers, which included Edgar Degas, Claude Monet, and Alfred Sisley amongst others, exhibited their then-radical ‘Impressionist’ paintings at the Salon des Refusés. A reaction to

realist painting, the Impressionists were thus born in the 1870s, the name deriving from a comment directed at Monet’s ‘Impressionism Sunrise’ (1873) by art critic Louis Leory in Le Charivari. Between 1874 and 1886 the Impressionists mounted eight shows - their canvases continuing to elicit criticism from critics and the public alike, who considered the vibrant, bold, plein-air paintings filled with strokes of strong color by Renoir and the other group members to be unfinished, lacking in skill and not the works of serious artists. In addition to his rich treatment of elegant figures in sundappled parks, still lifes, and landscapes, one of Renoir’s favored themes was female nudes, a subject whose depiction he did not treat humbly, including, as in the present example, bathers. It was a subject he turned to repeatedly, in oil, pastel, etching, and lithography. The present work will be included in the Berheim-Jeune archive of authentic works by Pierre-Auguste Renoir authored by Guy Patrice and Michael Dauberville. $50,000-70,000

(Probably) Eugène Fromentin au Musée des Beaux-Arts de la Rochelle, 1988, p.45.

note: A highly accomplished writer as well as a painter, Eugène Fromentin worked closely in the style of his countryman Eugène Delacroix, and was a major figure associated with the nineteenth century French Romantics. While his oeuvre is comprised of a large number of views of North Africa - with a particular emphasis on Algeria Fromentin also depicted scenes of his native France, including Neuilly, influenced by his mentor, the landscapist Louis Cabat. Deftly executed, this elegant view of a figure at leisure in the central French countryside is a testament to the artist’s skills, with the bright palette of the present work being in contrast to many of the artist’s more somber pictures. $6,000-8,000

His subjects are inspired by the lives of laborers such as miners, farmers, and fishermen. The son of a furniture maker and carpenter, he attended the Academy of Mons and Brussels from 1897 to 1908, where he studied with artists such as Constant Montald, Émile Fabry, and Jean Delville. These important Symbolist painters profoundly influenced his practice and his style. From 1912 to 1913 Carte traveled to Paris on a scholarship to work for the Ballets Russes, and came into contact with Russian artists such as Léon Bakst, Pierre Puvis de Chavannes, and Maurice Denis. After having several exhibitions in Brussels, Paris, and other European cities, a major retrospective of his work was held at the Carnegie Institute Pittsburgh in 1925, which ensured long-term success with the American public. A teacher, scholar, and successful artist, Carte founded an expressionist style group with his friends in 1928. He also produced drawings, engravings, book illustrations, posters, lithographs, banknotes, stamps, fresco design, sculpture, stained glass windows, and carpets. $10,000-15,000

(61 x 51.2cm) provenance: Frederick Thom Gallery, Toronto. Acquired from the above. The collection of Dr. and Mrs. L.S. Morgan. By descent in the family. Private Collection, Midwest. note: Rudolf Ernst was one of the leading second generation Orientalist painters, following in the tradition of earlier painters such as Horace Vernet, Eugène Delacroix, Alexandre-Gabriel Decamps and Théodore Chasseriau. Well before the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries when those artists painted romanticized scenes of life in North Africa, prominent Renaissance, Baroque and Rococo artists included figures in Middle Eastern dress in many of their compositions. Reaching its zenith in the nineteenth century, Orientalism as a recognized art movement coincided with European fascination with antiquity and the Near East. Practitioners of Orientalist art tended to focus their attention on genre scenes, including sumptuous interiors replete with recumbent odalisques, hookahs, oriental and tiger skin rugs, decorative tiles and all manner of accoutrements. Ernst began depicting Orientalist themes in the 1880s following his travels to Constantinople, Tunis, Egypt, Morocco and Spain. In an interesting example of life imitating art, Ernst is said to have not only decorated his home in an Ottoman style but to have painted while wearing an Eastern tasseled cap. $100,000-150,000

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. In addition to other remedies available to Freeman’s by law, Freeman’s reserves the right to impose a late charge of 1.5% per month of the total purchase price on any balance remaining ten (10) days after the day of sale.

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 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.

Freeman’s is not responsible for any acts or omissions in packing or shipping of purchased lots whether or not such carrier is recommended by Freeman’s. Packing and handling of purchased lots is at the responsibility of the buyer and is at the entire risk of the buyer. 16 In no event shall any liability of Freeman’s to the buyer exceed the purchase price actually paid. 17 No claimed modification or amendment of this Agreement on the part of any party shall be deemed extant, enforceable or provable unless it is in writing that has been signed by the parties to this Agreement. No course of dealing and no delay or omission on the part of Freeman’s in exercising any right under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right and waiver on any one or more occasions shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy of Freeman’s on any future occasion. 18 These Conditions of Sale and the buyer’s, the Consignor’s and Freeman’s rights under these Conditions of Sale shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and Consignor and Buyer agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Court of Common Pleas and the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. v1.2015
