The Felix Dennis Collection Three Day Estate Auction Dorsington, Warwickshire 29th, 30th September, 1st October, commencing each day at 10am

The Collection includes items from

Dorsington, London, New York, Connecticut and Mustique


F

elix Dennis was, by his own admission, an unlikely collector of art. Born and raised in what he called ‘modest surroundings’ in South London, he never took to academia and his short stay at Harrow School of Art ended with a tirade of expletives as he raged to a friend that he shouldn’t have to waste time learning to draw letters when he could simply use Letraset. However, a collector and indeed a man of letters, he did become. As one of the editors and designers of the sixties underground magazine Oz, he was charged in the longest conspiracy trial in British legal history. He was thrown in jail and eventually released, thanks in no small part to protest from John Lennon and legal representation from John Mortimer. During a spectacular career that was initially famed as much for its raucous revelry as it was for its business success, he amassed a fortune that he liberally spent on beautiful things – whether still living or inanimate. He supported budding contemporary artists, collected antiquities from Asia and Africa and commissioned an enormous sculpture garden. He decorated his properties in New York, Connecticut, London, Warwickshire and on the exclusive Caribbean island of Mustique with treasures from his collections. He also commissioned some of the finest contemporary furniture in England to put into Highfield, the largest green oak tithe barn constructed building to have been built in this country in the last 200 years, and which stood beside his home in Dorsington in the heart of Warwickshire. His diverse collection includes early oak and other furniture, as well as a selection of fine oil paintings which graced the walls of his home in Dorsington. Also featured are antique carpets, bronze sculptures and some outstanding items of silver, one of which is the 1865 Ascot Trophy by Robert Garrard of London. Contemporary furniture, pictures and works of art – some commissioned and some collected over the years – epitomise the diversity and idiosyncratic nature of a man whose life was punctuated by what he called ‘a sustained series of unlikely events’. He also had a keen interest in Tribal Art and sent friends and colleagues on collecting trips to Asia and beyond to add to his collection of overseas antiquities. Many of these items come from his estate on Mustique, whilst others decorated his house on Candlewood Lake in Connecticut and his apartment in New York. Possessing a keen sense of fun, Felix also kept a collection of original pinball machines with themes such as Harley Davidson the Simpsons and Batman also two ejector seats one from a Canberra bomber. His love of the outdoors and his home in Warwickshire shows through in the wide array of garden ornaments, bronze urns, stone bronze and marble lions, sheep, goats, storks, cats and owls to name but a few. He had a collection of antique Cannons and even a child’s suit of armour. His love of Robert Louis Stevenson and the Treasure Island book accounts for the wide collection of Maritime pieces which was the theme of Highfield. The sale will also include items from Felix’s Eric Gill Collection. In true Felix Dennis style, the three-day auction promises to offer an opportunity for the world to appreciate the magnitude of his collection, as well as give an insight into the life of one of the great entrepreneurs of our time. Proceeds from the auction will go to his Estate, the major beneficiary of his Estate being the Heart of England Forest charity. The charity’s goal is to fulfil his vision to plant, protect and preserve a huge broadleaf forest in England. Felix’s motivation to plant a connected series of woods, so extensive that it might form one of the largest forests in England, was to create an environment that both wildlife and humans could enjoy – a haven from the commotion of modern life. It was a dream that he knew he would never live to see, but one he was passionate enough about to leave the bulk of his fortune to. Fergus Byrne ©

Important Notices for Bidders Introduction. The following informative notes are intended to assist Buyers, particularly those inexperienced or new to our salerooms. All sales are conducted on our printed Conditions of Sale which are readily available for inspection and normally accompany catalogues. Our staff will be happy to help you if there is anything you do not fully understand. 2. Agency. As auctioneers we usually contract as agents for the vendor whose identity, for reasons of confidentiality, is not normally disclosed. Accordingly if you buy your primary contract is with the vendor. 3. Estimates. Estimates are designed to help buyers gauge what sort of sum might be involved for the purchase of a particular lot. The lower estimate may represent the reserve price and certainly will not be above it. Estimates do not include the Buyer’s Premium or VAT (where chargeable). Estimates are prepared some time before the sale and may be altered by announcement before the sale. They are in no sense definitive. 4. Buyer’s Premium. The Conditions of Sale oblige buyers to pay a buyer’s premium at 19.5% plus VAT on the premium at the rate imposed by law on the hammer price of each lot purchased. 5. VAT The lots in the sale are not subject to VAT on the hammer price. VAT is charged upon the buyer’s premium and is not recoverable as input tax. The purchase invoice will show the buyer’s premium as a VAT inclusive figure. 6. Purchasers Condition Reports. Purchasers are reminded to carefully examine items prior to sale. Whilst the Auctioneers are willing to give condition reports these may not reveal certain imperfections in any lot. The exact physical condition, the extent of any defect, restoration or repair must be ascertained by intending purchasers by thorough inspection of the lots prior to bidding at the sale. The Auctioneers take no responsibility whatsoever for the condition of any of the lots included in sales. 7. We are, primarily, agents for the seller. We are dependent on information provided by the seller and whilst we may inspect lots and act reasonably in taking a general view about them we are normally unable to carry out a detailed or any examination of lots in order to ascertain their condition in the way in which it would be wise for a buyer to do. Intending buyers have ample opportunity for inspection of goods and, therefore, accept responsibility for inspecting and investigating lots in which they may be interested. Please note carefully the exclusion of liability for the condition of lots contained in the Conditions of Sale. Neither the seller nor we, as the auctioneers, accept any responsibility for their condition. In particular, mechanical objects of any age are not guaranteed to be in working order. However, in so far as we have examined the goods and make a representation about their condition, we shall be liable for any defect which that examination ought to have revealed to the auctioneer but which would not have been revealed to the buyer had the buyer examined the goods. Additionally, in specified circumstances lots misdescribed because they are ‘deliberate forgeries’ may be returned and repayment made. There is a 3 week time limit. (The expression ‘deliberate forgery’ is defined in our Conditions of Sale). 8. Electrical Goods have been PAT tested for safety. The auctioneers do not give any warranty as to the working condition of any lot. Electric sockets are available on site for bidders to check items when viewing. 9. Export of goods. Buyers intending to export goods should ascertain (a) whether an export licence is required and (b) whether there is any specific prohibition on importing goods of that character because, e.g. they may contain prohibited materials such as ivory. Ask us if you need help. 10. Bidding. Bidders may be required to register before the sale commences and lots will be invoiced to the name and address on the registration form. Some form of identification may be required if you are unknown to us. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for telephone bidding. 1.

11. Commission bidding. Commission bids may be left with the auctioneers indicating the maximum amount to be bid excluding buyers’ premium. They will be executed as cheaply as possible having regard to the reserve (if any) and competing bids. If two buyers submit identical commission bids the auctioneers may prefer the first bid received. Please use our website to submit commission bids. Online Bidding. The Joint Auctioneers Bigwood Fine Art Auctioneers Ltd. and Halls Fine Art offer an online bidding service via the-saleroom.com for bidders who cannot attend the sale. In completing the bidder registration on www.the-saleroom.com and providing your credit card details and unless alternative arrangements are agreed with Bigwood Fine Art Auctioneers Ltd: 1. authorise Bigwood Fine Art Auctioneers Ltd, if they so wish, to charge the credit card given in part or full payment, including all fees, for items successfully purchased in the auction via the-saleroom.com, and 2. confirm that you are authorised to provide these credit card details to Bigwood Fine Art Auctioneers Ltd through www.the-saleroom.com and agree that Bigwood Fine Art Auctioneers Ltd are entitled to ship the goods to the card holder name and card holder address provided in fulfilment of the sale.
