F I N E ART

1 RICHARD YARDE (American, 1939–2011) Untitled (Three Figures) 1977, watercolor on Rives paper signed and dated Yarde 1977 lower right sheet: 25 1/2 x 19 in. frame: 32 x 27 1/4 in. $1,500–2,500 Provenance: The Estate of a Prominent Architectural Historian, Wellesley, Massachusetts.

This work was painted in 1977, a pivotal year for Boston artist Richard Yarde, as it was at this time that he switched from oil painting to watercolor as his preferred medium. His watercolors were bold in color, scale, and subject matter, and they were immediately celebrated by art critics and coveted by collectors.

A December 1977 New York Times review of Yarde's one–man watercolor show at Meredith Long Contemporary notes, "The placement of each touch of color, the way these touches grow into clusters of form, and the deployment of these forms within the white space of the paper—it is in these pictorial details that Mr. Yarde establishes his real authority...Yet the mood of the work is not one of detached estheticism. We are never in doubt about the importance that Mr. Yarde's themes have for him. The note of elegy remains emphatic, and the note of personal identification with the past too. In perfecting the esthetic component of his art, Mr. Yarde has, in fact, strengthened its power to deal with a social reality, and persuades us of the force with which it has captured his imagination. The result is very moving work in a mode we seldom see nowadays."

In his watercolors, Yarde explored the history of Black Americans in the 20th century. He drew on both his own upbringing in Roxbury, Massachusetts, as well as photographs from the heyday of the Harlem Renaissance, often finding inspiration in the work of noted photographer James Van Der Zee. The figures in this painting were likely photographed by Van Der Zee during one of the famed Harlem parades of the 1920s. Yarde enlivens the scene, creating a sense of spontaneity through his tilted, off–set composition, while capturing the viewer's eye with the contrast of the rich goldenrod ground against the stark white background of the paper.

American modernist painter Lloyd McNeill is celebrated for his figurative art from the 1960s and his talent as a jazz flutist. In 1963, he was the first person to receive a Master of Fine Arts degree from Howard University.

After graduating from Howard, he spent a year at Dartmouth College as the Artist–In–Residence, during which time he painted Sign Bearers.

Following his time at Dartmouth, McNeill moved to Paris to study at L’Ecole des Beaux Arts. Upon returning to the US, he had a varied and successful career as a jazz musician, artist, and arts educator.

3 JENNIE HADDAD (American, 1906–1996) Untitled oil on canvas signed Jennie Haddad verso 50 x 35 1/3 in. frame: 52 1/4 x 37 1/4 in. $8,000–12,000 Provenance: The Estate of the Artist; The Collection of Pat Houseman, Dallas, TX (1996–2020); A Texas Collection.

Jennie Haddad began her formal art training with Otis Dozier at the Dallas Museum of Fine Arts, though it was her time in New York City and Provincetown under the tutelage of Hans Hoffman that profoundly impacted her style. Haddad was one of 12 chosen pupils to study with the Abstract Expressionist in 1956, and in the artist’s words, “I clicked with Hans Hoffman and that turned out to be one of the best things that could have happened to me.” He encouraged her to take inspiration from nature and to loosen her style, as reflected in this painting, where the flat planes of receding and advancing colors establish negative and positive space. Haddad kept in touch with Hoffman until his death and continued her studies at the Arts Students League in Woodstock, NY. She exhibited across the country, and received the Houston Museum Award in 1957, upon which the critic Clement Greenberg noted, “Jennie Haddad has what I’d call ‘painting culture’ in her very bones; she has it by instinct.

She was born to paint.”

5 ROBERT REMSEN VICKREY (American, 1926–2011) Nun egg tempera on Masonite signed R. Vickrey lower right 14 x 20 in., frame: 23 5/8 x 29 1/2 in. $7,000–10,000 Provenance: Midtown Galleries, New York (label verso); By descent within a Hamilton, Massachusetts Family.

While Robert Vickrey was a student at the Yale School of Fine Arts in 1948, he found inspiration in a picture of Roman Catholic sisters the Daughters of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul. Soon thereafter, depictions of their distinct linen head coverings (cornettes) came to dominate his oeuvre. Vickrey's nun series highlights his use of traditional egg tempera. The yolk emulsion technique creates a unique luminosity seen in Vickrey's cornettes, while the matte surface of the medium heightens his striking, linear compositions.

This work highlights the varied effect of the medium in Vickrey's work, with the bold white of the nun's cornette in stark contrast with the, grainy texture of the background.

Literature: This painting is included in the Marsden Hartley Legacy Project: Complete Paintings and Works on Paper, with the Hartley Estate inventory no. 248; an image of it can be found in the Archives of American Art, Elizabeth McCausland Papers, box 15, folder 30: frames 33–35.

Other Notes: Bears Paul Rosenberg Gallery (New York) label verso; stamped Property of Marsden Hartley verso.

Modernist Marsden Hartley was a leading member of the Stieglitz group, with an innovative painting style that benefited from his exposure to French avant–garde styles and German painters. After spending years in Paris and Berlin, Hartley returned to the United States in 1915 and departed from his abstract style. His production of expressive landscapes, still life compositions, and portraits was inspired by his peripatetic lifestyle and the many places he lived.

Hartley painted Wild White Rose in 1936, a notable year for him both personally and artistically. In September of that year, Hartley was living in Nova Scotia with the Mason family when both of their sons and their nephew drowned at sea. The death of his dear friends profoundly impacted Hartley, as can be seen in his repeated depiction of the iconic wild rose, or ‘rosa rugosa’, which blooms along the Atlantic seacoast. In the ensuing years, Hartley produced many iterations of the rose to memorialize the event. The striking contrast, vivid colors, exaggerated form, bold black outlines, and flattened space of Wild White Rose exemplify his work from this period.

Marguerite Thompson Zorach was a pioneer of modernism in America. Employing bright, bold colors and striking, simplified geometries, her mature paintings, especially her landscapes, express the influence of both Fauvism and Cubism. Born in California, Marguerite Thompson moved to Paris in 1907 and attended the Académie La Palette, a school of “post– impressionists,” and exhibited at the Salon d’Automne and the Société des Artistes Indépendants. In 1912, she married artist William Zorach, and the two returned to the United States. She participated in the seminal Armory Show of 1913, was the only woman exhibitor in the selective 1916 Forum Exhibition of Modern American Painters. Additionally, she served as the first President of the New York Society of Women Artists and as Vice President and Director of the Society of Independent Artists.

Cultra; by bequest to Richard Barker; to his estate; with Alfred J. Walker Fine Art (Boston); by descent within a Hamilton, Massachusetts Family.

The internationally acclaimed American figure painter Cecilia Beaux was heralded by her friend and fellow artist William Merritt Chase (1849–1916) in 1899 as “not only the greatest living woman painter, but the best that has ever lived.” Though Beaux rejected the term “woman painter,” and instead, predicted as early as 1915 that “an hour when the term ‘Women in Art’ will be as strange sounding a topic as ‘Men in Art’ would be now.”

Beaux embraced the framework of her family for the creation and reception of her work throughout her career. This portrait depicts her uncle and guardian William Foster Biddle, who was instrumental to her introduction to fine art and Philadelphia society. Thanks to her uncle’s encouragement of her burgeoning talent, Beaux’s sitters were not confined to women and children, and she received formal commissions from Philadelphia’s leading citizens and institutions. By the age of 18, Beaux was earning a living through commercial art and her works were exhibited internationally including the 1900 Exposition Universelle in Paris where she received the Gold Medal. In 1933 Beaux received the Chi Omega Gold Medal from Lady Eleanor Roosevelt who celebrated the artist as, “the American woman who had made the greatest contribution to the culture of the world."

Vose Paintings, Boston, early 1937; a Brookline, Massachusetts Collector, March 14, 1938; [whereabouts unknown]; Cowan's Auctions, Cincinnati, October 17, 2015; Property of a Manchester–by–the–Sea, Massachusetts Lady.

Bears R.C. Vose Paintings, Boston stamp and inventory number on stretcher. According the Vose Galleries archives, when Vose acquired the work in 1937, the reverse of the canvas was inscribed Cincinnati Ohio, Nov 5, 1920. This is to certify that this painting, subject, 'Man's Head,' size 12 x 15 1/2 in. was painted by my brother. –Charles F. Duveneck.

Additionally, the archives cite a letter from W.P. Closson of A.B. Closson Co., Cincinnati, dated January 2, 1936, that reads, "For your information, we are pleased to tell you that it is a portrait of Theodore Wendell [sic] who was with Duveneck when he painted in Munich. It was painted, we believe, sometime in the 70s."

“After all’s said, Frank Duveneck is the greatest talent of the brush of this generation,” lauded John Singer Sargent in the mid–1890s. This high praise is a testament to the recognition of Duveneck’s skill within his lifetime, which was catalyzed by a series of early portraits he produced in the 1870s after a brief time at the Royal Academy of Arts in Munich. The works, including the well–known Whistling Boy (1872), expressed the artist’s celebrated Munich–style realism that blended the dark aesthetics of Realism with the painterly technique of the Impressionists. He exhibited them to great acclaim in Cincinnati (1873) and in Boston (1875), before returning to Munich to establish his own painting school. In Munich, his following colloquially known as the “Duveneck Boys,” attracted the likes of artist Theodore Wendel (1857–1932) who traveled to Germany in 1876 and of whom this portrait depicts. It is likely that Duveneck painted the portrait during Wendel's time in Germany. Before returning to the United States in 1886, Wendel spent his summers traveling and painting in Italy and his winters at Duveneck’s school of art. The two artists reunited in the late 1880s in Gloucester, Massachusetts where they spent the summers painting the New England landscape.

James Shannon’s work in the late 1880s is celebrated for bridging the gap between tradition and innovation.

This cheerful portrait of the artist’s daughter Kitty playing with her dolls showcases Shannon’s affinity for painting his daughter and wife, as well as the influence of the Spanish master Diego Velazquez (1599–1660) on his portraiture. A critic viewing the portrait of Kitty at the artist’s one–man exhibition in 1896 described the painting as a “Velasquez–like child, playing with a doll.” Though, while the broad brushwork and refined palette of soft pinks, greys, and blacks are reminiscent of the Spanish baroque painter, Shannon’s sitter is masterfully captured in motion rather than the static poses typical of Velasquez.

Artist, writer, and teacher John Ferguson Weir began his artistic journey alongside his younger brother Julian Alden Weir under the tutelage of their father, Robert W. Weir, a revered drawing teacher at West Point. In 1868, after finding success as an artist in New York, John F. Weir received an offer to become director of the newly established School of Fine Arts at Yale, the first fine arts school in this country to be part of an established university. After moving to New Haven, Weir found inspiration in the surrounding Connecticut landscape, departing from his earlier depictions of industrial life. He instead favored landscapes, interiors, and still lifes such as the present lot.

In his forty-four year tenure at Yale, Weir built the School of Fine Arts into one of the most respected in the nation, and was lauded for his forward-thinking educational approach, exposing students to not only traditional Old Master sources but also the (at the time) radical Impressionists.

Lots 44 and 45 have descended for three generations within the family of the artist Rudolf Wacker.

Wacker was one of Austria’s most important representatives of the Neue Sachlichkeit (New Objectivity) and the Phantastischer Realism (Magic Realism) movements. In 1914, he was drafted into the Tyrolean Imperial Rifles Regiment, captured a year later in Poland by the Russians, and imprisoned in Siberia for nearly five years. He returned to Berlin in 1920 where he became a founding member of the Vorarlberger Artists' Association, Der Kreis (The Circle). These two paintings are typical of his celebrated work of the mid to late 1920s, which depicted houses and backyards in working–class neighborhoods.

Jean Arp’s multifaceted artistic practice was rooted in the pivotal aesthetic movements of the 20th century, ranging from Dada and Surrealism to Abstraction. It was only at the end of his life that he began designing jewelry such as Tête de Bouteille et Moustache. This necklace, designed in 1960 for his friend and fellow Dadaist Marcel Janco was executed in a numbered edition of 100 by Jhanaan Peter in the artist colony of Ein–Hod, Israel. The cool silver contours and biomorphic shapes of broken bottlehead and mustache forms are instantly recognizable as part of Arp’s oeuvre.

LOTS 86 – 87 Works by Edward Mitchell Bannister from The Collection of a Rhode Island Doctor Providence artist Edward Bannister created a sensation when his painting won first prize at the Philadelphia Centennial Exposition in 1876. Working in the 19th century, he faced an uphill battle to become one of the few African American painters to garner significant recognition in his day. Born in New Brunswick, Canada, he moved to Boston where he began formal training in the 1860s under Dr. William Rimmer, who admitted Bannister as the only African American student in his evening drawing classes. Bannister moved with his wife to Providence, Rhode Island in 1869 where he found a thriving community of African American artists and took a studio in the Woods Building, where he would continue to work for the remainder of his career. His position among the Providence art society was cemented in 1878 when, while serving on the board of the Rhode Island Schools of Design, he founded what would later become the Providence Art Club with fellow artists George Whitaker and Charles Stetson.

Lot 86, a tiny dynamic New England seascape, is typical of Bannister’s oeuvre, and likely depicts a view towards the mouth of Narragansett Bay from the Conanticut Island seacoast. Rhode Island landscapists favored the uninterrupted sea views along this dramatic coastline, and the bustling activity depicted with racing yachts, sloops, and a steamer in the distance is typical for the area in the late nineteenth century. The composition and narrative qualities of the painting are likewise consistent with Bannister’s work, particularly his Rhode Island studies from the 1880s and early 1890s. The mass of rocks anchoring the pictorial structure in the bottom right of the piece and the positioning of a single boat as the focal point highlight quintessential Bannister devices. He frequently painted local maritime workers as well

as his family and friends, and his inclusion of the two figures evoke a subtle narrative as they appear to engage with the shore–bound sailboat. In his spare time, the artist enjoyed sailing on his modest Herreschoff–built sloop which he often included in his seascapes. The treatment of the sea with thick, tightly–spaced capped waves together with the subtly complex tonal qualities of the sky with windblown clouds are unmistakably Bannister, the latter frequently compared to those by Constable.

Bannister’s aptitude for capturing the sky is evident in Lot 87, an example of his bucolic landscape of grazing cattle. Here he delicately reflects the fair–weather clouds in the drinking pool, offering a softness to the pastoral scene and a reprieve from the weight of summer heat. Cattle landscapes were immensely popular in the mid to late nineteenth century and Bannister and his fellow Providence Barbizonians made a specialty of the genre. The confident brushstrokes, gentle impasto, and almost impressionist application of color became hallmarks of Bannister’s later landscapes, while the pyramidal composition, established here by the varying heights of tree clusters, is a device repeated throughout Bannister’s landscapes and maritime views. The effect is strengthened by the intense contrast between the shadows cast under the trees with the light illuminating the cattle that pulls the eye towards the distant horizon. This subtle chiaroscuro effect conveys Transcendentalist notions of grace and divinity with Nature.

Grogan & Company thanks art historian Anne Louise Avery for her analysis of these paintings. They are each accompanied by a copy of her report and letter of opinion confirming the authenticity of the work.

The multitude of pictorial categories employed in this composition are hallmarks of seventeenth-century Italian painter Viviano Codazzi and his followers. Born near Bergamo, Codazzi is celebrated for bringing the Italian tradition of quadratura from murals to easel painting. He moved to Rome in 1647 and turned almost exclusively to architectural paintings.

These architectural fantasies demonstrate his mastery of perspective, a tool that here is employed in concert with detailed topograipcal views and illusionistic scenery to set forth a narrative scene depicting the Fall of Simon Magus. Shortly after Christ’s death, Peter and Paul came to Rome to win converts to Christianity and there, Simon Magnus, claiming to be the son of God, attempted to prove his divinity by levitating. Instead, Simon fell to his death as his demons abandoned him as Peter prayed.

99 Attributed to MICHELE DA VERONA (Italian, ca. 1470–1536) A Battle Scene tempera on panel 12 1/4 x 32 1/4 in. frame: 17 3/8 x 36 5/8 in. $4,000–8,000 Provenance: A gift to Thomas Bailey Aldrich, mid–late 19th century; by descent.

This painted panel depicting an Italian battle scene was originally part of a cassone. Cassoni, or ‘chests’ were popular wedding gifts in Renaissance Italy from the late 14th century until the 16th century to commemorate marriages of the city and court elite. Often commissioned in pairs, they served as both storage chests and seating. The finest examples included horizontal panels on the front and sides with narrative subjects intended to provoke discussion drawn from mythological, biblical, or historical subjects. This secular panel painting is attributed to Michele da Verona.

Verona favored the Venetian styles of the terraferma, and was influenced

by Vittore Carpaccio, Giovanni Bellini, and Antonello da Messina. The almost marble–like smoothness of the wooden figures illuminated with hard light are hallmarks of his style.
