Fine Art

Very occasionally I’m asked to write a catalogue introduction, I’ll confess that I find this task the most challenging when it comes to our Fine Art catalogues. What to write about that may be of value, and how to write given I am an art enthusiast but not an art historian? These are the questions that challenge me. I’ll begin with the least daunting task and warmly welcome you to our first Fine Art auction in 2024 and the first that will be exhibited in our state-of-the-art gallery within our new salerooms in Hawthorn.

It is one thing to view a work of art in print, another to view it on a digital device, but nothing compares to the experience of viewing art in the flesh. For me, the scale and presence of a work are the two elements that I find the most impactful when I shift from gazing at a computer screen to being in the room with a work of art. It is this experience, this delight, that I look forward to all our visitors experiencing when they decide that seeing something in print or online draws them into our new gallery spaces for a more personal art encounter.

A Leonard Joel art auction is really a culmination of a collaborative curation between all our Art Specialists, who are endlessly and passionately allocating and curating works into the most suitable exhibition environments. Composition, rarity, origin, medium, period and history are just some of the concepts and questions they continually discuss amongst themselves as works are selected, reviewed and agreed upon.

As it’s my introduction, I’ll remark on what has piqued my interest; sure in the knowledge that what I have chosen is what our Fine Art team has identified as having the credibility to be included in our first Fine Art auction in Hawthorn. These are the works I will go to first, when the auction viewing opens and I’m with this catalogue. Admittedly, this list will change over time, as it inevitably does.

At the viewing, I will continue to marvel at the composition of William Dargie’s Before the Mirror (Lot 17) while in Clarice Beckett’s The Red Drive (Lot 5), I will wonder if this is her Meldrumesque response to a Streeton or Roberts high-summer work. I won’t be embarrassed to enjoy the prettiness of the pointillism that informs Arthur Baker-Clack’s French Farmhouse (Lot 56). With Wakelin’s At the Boat (Lot 66), a work of a family by the waterside, I will continue to speculate as to what could have been if he had turned his eye more to the interior than the exterior; our own Edward Hopper perhaps? I will ponder the unlikely family portrait, Family TV Viewing (Lot 126) by Kenneth Jack, a curious blend of sombre, modern domesticity. This is how I think about our Fine Art auctions, this is how I’m drawn to works and I’m thrilled that now all our collectors can experience and enjoy art in our new gallery spaces within our Melbourne salerooms.

Clarice Beckett

Clarice Beckett stands as one of the foremost artists from the interwar period in Australia, arguably the most significant modern Australian female artist of the 20th century. Beckett symbolises the overlooked female painter who, after being brought out of obscurity, is finally receiving the recognition she deserves.

In a remarkable encounter with Australian art history, Dr. Rosalind Hollinrake stumbled upon a striking painting signed “C. Beckett”. It would be five years before she uncovered the identity of this very talented artist who had deeply moved her. It took many more years before Hollinrake rescued Clarice’s neglected artworks from a shed in Victoria during the 1960s, many with irreparable damage. This marked the beginning of a revival in the career of one of Australia’s finest tonalist painters and a shift in the Australian art scene, leading to the long overdue acknowledgement of numerous women artists.

Clarice Beckett’s paintings beautifully capture the tranquility and enchantment of the Australian landscape. Employing what appears to be a minimalist technique, Clarice adeptly evokes the atmospheric interplay of light and shadow. Through her use of shifting and dissolving hues, she conveys the mood or essence of a fleeting natural moment rather than a static portrayal.

In ‘The Red Drive’, she skillfully crafted a rich palette comprising creamy yellows, gentle auburns, and blues. The melding of sky and landscape forms a radiant spectrum of colours, vividly portraying the tranquility of the expansive scenery.

Harold Septimus Power

We are honoured to present a remarkable work from the eminent war artist, Harold Septimus Power. The compelling subject of the painting ‘(Soldiers with Cart over the Hill)’, and Power’s distinctive style, offers a window into a pivotal era of history and art.

Born in 1877, Harold Septimus Power’s journey as an artist took a profound turn with the outbreak of World War I. Well known for his majestic depictions of horses, Power brought this skill and passion to his war art, creating images that captured the raw power and tragic beauty of these animals amidst the chaos of war. The artist’s work as an official war artist for the Australian Government allowed him to witness the front lines, capturing scenes with authenticity and a profound sense of immediacy.

Power’s war paintings are distinguished by their realism and attention to detail. The painting ‘(Soldiers with Cart over the Hill),’ is an emotive representation of war, featuring soldiers on horses pulling a cart, in what can be presumed as a battlefield scenario. Power’s ability to infuse life and motion into his equine subjects stands as a testament to his exceptional skill and deep understanding of these animals and their movements. In this work, the horses are not mere background figures; they are dynamic participants in the scene he portrays, encapsulating the emotional and physical strains of war.

This painting is not just an artistic creation, it is a historical document of the war. Power’s works provide invaluable insights into the significant role of horses in World War I, highlighting their contribution and the bond they shared with the soldiers. The use of light, colour, and composition in this painting and the loose brushstrokes, reflects the dramatic intensity and emotional gravity of the war.

Rosa Bonheur

The French realist painter Rosa Bonheur is one of the most accomplished animalière of the nineteenth century. Bonheur’s dedication to the naturalistic and anatomically precise portrayal of animals sets her apart in an era that had few comparisons. Her works reflect a combination of direct observation and a deep understanding of her subjects, standing as a testament to her talent in capturing not only the anatomy but also the essence of equine subjects.

The painting ‘A Grey Breton Draft Horse’ is a fine example of her ability to depict the nobility and strength of a working horse. With meticulous brushwork and subtle tonality, Bonheur highlights her intimate knowledge of equine form, presenting the drafthorse’s robust build and serene temperament.

‘Tethered Pony’, offers a contrast in both colour and mood. The warm hues and the darker palette evoke a sense of intimacy and perhaps a narrative of the pony’s quiet contemplation. The tether, a simple but poignant detail, suggests not only the physical state of being bound but also hints at a deeper, emotive state of restraint. This work, whilst less detailed, is no less significant in demonstrating Bonheur’s skill in rendering the texture of the pony’s coat and the lifelike portrayal of its stance.

Bonheur’s works are praised not only for their technical excellence but also for their emotive power and focus on working animals, opposed to the representation of riding horses or war horses more commonly illustrated at the time. These paintings invite viewers to contemplate the natural world and its beings, a hallmark of Bonheur’s artistic philosophy.

Her commitment to portraying animals in their most truthful state earned her international acclaim, with ‘The Horse Fair’ being one of her most celebrated artworks, which is now held in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. To depict her subject most accurately, Bonheur regularly went to the horse market dressed as a man in trousers to sketch her subject matter, as women were not allowed to visit the market.

Collectors now have the opportunity to own a piece of Bonheur’s celebrated career. These works which have never been seen on the Australian market are a fitting tribute to Bonheur’s legacy, encapsulating her respect for animals and her mastery of painting.

About 100 million of these stamps were circulated around the world at a time when Aborigines were not recognised as citizens of Australia, he says. ‘It's such a beautiful image which was exported around the world, advertising this kitschy Australia with its Aboriginal people but at the same time we did not have citizenship’.”

Galleries

lots 37–54

After working with his father Georges at Tolarno Galleries, William Mora started his own gallery in 1985. William Mora Galleries is committed to supporting and exhibiting contemporary art, Australian art and emerging and established Indigenous artists. Originally located in Flinders Lane, the gallery space moved to Richmond in 2000, where it is today.

From 1987, William represented his mother, Mirka Mora, as well as many other artists. Very early on in his career, William travelled throughout Australia and was one of the first gallerists to host solo shows by Indigenous artists, working with some of the First Nations greater artists. We are privileged to feature works by significant Indigenous artists in our Fine Art auction, including Rusty Peters, Phyllis Thomas, Goody Barrett, and Nola Campbell. Following the death of William in 2023, in acknowledgement of his legacy, the Melbourne Art Foundation created the William Mora Indigenous Art Centre Program. In addition, the Heide Museum of Modern Art appointed William as the Heide 2023 Heide Fellow alongside his parents, Georges Mora (1989) and Mirka Mora (2008).

“I have had the immense privilege to work alongside my husband for over a decade. I wish nothing more than to continue and see his legacy grow.”
