The Inventory of one of America’s Premier Antique Shops, The Antique Room, Brooklyn, New York together with Items from the Personal Collection of David Marshall, its Proprietor New Orleans Auction Galleries is honored to offer the contents of one of America’s premier antique stores: The Antique Room of Brooklyn , New York. Since its opening in the early 1970’s, the Antique Room has offered peerless museum-quality furniture and decorative objects comprising the finest works of 19th century America. Incorporating every major style from Classical through the Aesthetic Movement, the shop is particularly noted for its extensive inventory of the Gothic Revival, Neo-Grec and Modern Gothic styles. The furniture inventory has always included examples from such renowned cabinetmakers as Thomas Brooks, George Hunzinger, John Jelliff, John Needles, Daniel Pabst, Alexander Roux, Herter Brothers, J and J. W. Meeks and Pottier and Stymus. A number of the store’s pieces have found their way into major museum collections, including the recent acquisition by the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, of a Gothic Revival desk for their new Art of the Americas Wing which opened last November. The Antique Room has also placed items in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and The Victorian Mansion in Portland, Maine. Proprietor David Marshall is at the helm of the Antique Room’s operation. Born in Atlantic City, New Jersey, David came to Brooklyn to study advertising at the Pratt Institute, and later design at Cooper Union. At age 40, he left a successful career in advertising on Madison Avenue to enter the antique business, bringing his advertising savvy and designer’s eye to the antique business. The present offering includes not only the entire inventory of Marshall’s Antique Room, but a selection from his private collection as well: an evolving compendium of Gothic Revival and Eyptian Revival antiques which has been illustrated in Victorian Homes, Old House Interiors, and House Beautiful.

661 After Charles Valton (French, 1851‑1918), “Lionne Blessee”, first quarter 20th century, a patinated bronze feline figure after the 1888 model, depicting a lioness pierced by a pair of arrows, with dark greenish-brown patination, signed on the base “C. Valton”, h. 11”, l. 18”, w. 4‑3/4”. A native of Gascony, Valton was the student of two of the great animaliers: Anton Louis Barye (1796‑1875) and Emmanuel Fremiet (1824‑1910). He studied the anatomy of big cats at the Jardin des Plantes in Paris (where both his teachers were directors), and became widely admired for his sculptures of these graceful animals. This particular model is perhaps his most famous: a very faithful three-dimensional depiction of a 7th century B.C. bas-relief panel from the “Lion Hunt of Ashurbanipal” found at the North Palace at Nineveh (Kuyunjik, Iraq), now housed at the British Museum in London. Valton’s interpretation - one of the most direct expressions of the Assyrian influence on the animaliers - was exhibited outside the City of Paris pavilion at the 1889 Exposition Universelle, where it was awarded a first-class medal. (Rodin served on the jury.) The lifesized bronze was then moved to Monceau Park in the 8th arrondissement, where it remained until World War II, when it was melted down by the Vichy government. Later in his career, Valton served as Professor of Sculpture at the Germain Pilon School and was awarded the Cross of the Legion of Honor in 1906. He died in Chinon, near Tours, on May 29, 1918.

While this figure does not bear Barbedienne’s signature, it does have the seal of his collaborator Achille Collas; whole reduction apparatus enabled the faithful reproduction of statuary in multiple sizes. Moreover, this figure is listed on page 11 of Barbedienne’s 1886 catalogue as available in five sizes of which this, the three-tenths reduction, was the next-to-largest. The catalogue calls the figure “Aristide”, or Aristides the Just (530‑468 B.C.), as the figure was known at the time, having been uncovered at the so-called “House of Aristides” at Herculaneum. The figure has subsequently been identified as the Greek statesman Aeschines, one of the ten Attic Orators. The original is housed at the Muzeo Nationale in Naples. [1800/2500] Illustrated

The arms here are those of Ann Lovell Gwatkin (1729‑1809) daughter of Robert Lovell (ca. 1702‑1770), the captain of a West Indies packet ship, and his wife Anne Jones (1705- ca. 1732). She married, as his third wife, Bristol merchant Edward Gwatkin (ca. 1707‑1764) in 1753; her dowry was 20,000 pounds, roughly equivalent to about 2.7 million US dollars today. She retained most of this after the death of her husband, and it was augmented by the inheritance of the bulk of her father’s estate in 1770. She died in Gloucestershire in 1809, diving her fortune among her four children, one of whom - Robert Lovell Gwatkin (1757‑1843) - married Theophilia Palmer (1757‑1848), the adored niece and favorite subject of Sir Joshua Reynolds (1823‑1792).

While style of this unusual urn is resolutely from the 1780s, it does show peculiar anachronisms. Some of its eccentric construction details (the riveted handles and spout, the old-fashioned billet chamber, the tinsmith-lapped lid flange) suggest an earlier piece, while others (the solid copper feet, the lack of any lapped edges or wired seams) suggest a later Victorian piece of electroplate.

1568 Important American Monumental Carved Mahogany and Cherry Aesthetic Movement Cabinet, New York, circa 1875‑1880 , a custom-commissioned piece with the pencil inscription on the back, “Havemeyer, Cabinet #2”, the upper section comprised of a row of seven rectangular mirrors separated by acanthus-leaf-carved pilasters and garland swags with a long narrow crest above depicting a central floral wreath with a flame lit torch, arrow quiver, and laurel branches, the base with a central drawer featuring a carved female mask above a relief carved door with a pair of putti in a lush floral garden, the sides having cabinet doors which open from each end and featuring incised carved panels in the front with fully carved putti holding fluted pilasters over their heads, h. 73‑1/4”, w. 113”, d. 19‑1/2”. The scale and quality of the present cabinet indicates it was custom-commissioned “art furniture” crafted specifically for the Havemeyers by one of Herter Brother’s principal competitors such as Pottier and Stymus or George Shastey. The piece incorporates Louis XVI-inspired design elements in a manner similar to the light-wood 1877 Cohen cabinet by Potter and Stymus sold in this gallery July, 1999. That cabinet is now in the collection of the High Museum of Art, Atlanta Georgia. The scale and quality of this work, together with the pencil inscription on the back, suggests it was made for one of the Havemeyer brothers: William F. (1804‑1874) Frederick C., Jr. (1807‑1891) or Albert (unknown - 1874); one of their widows, or children. Custom-commission pieces like the present one were often in conception and production for several years prior to their delivery. The brother’s father founded a sugar refinery in 1807. Each of the three brothers spent some part of their career building the company, as did Frederick’s sons Theodore and William O. William F. served three terms as mayor of New York City after leaving the business. Theodore served as a principal of the company and was the first president of the U.S. Golf Association and a founder of the U.S. Open. Under Henry O.’s direction, the family business became the American Sugar Refining Company, the trust that controlled 90% of the sugar sold in the United States. The trust was finally broken up during Theodore Roosevelt’s presidency. Henry O. hired Louis Comfort Tiffany to design and decorate his 1890 New York townhouse. That commission is regarded as Tiffany’s most important. Upon his widow’s death, 5,000 items from their collection were bequeathed to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, including an extensive group of important impressionist paintings.

1569 1569 Albert Bierstadt (American, 1830‑1902) “The Polar Bear Hunt”, oil on canvas, signed lower left “A Bierstadt”, 18” x 26”. Presented in a contemporary gitlwood exhibition frame. Provenance: Private Collection, Colorado. We are pleased to offer this intriguing oil on canvas by Albert Bierstadt painted at the twilight of his career. Here the artist places human figures, seemingly alone except for a tiny ship in the distance, huddled against a large animal in a vast foreboding landscape. This is probably how the painter felt in 1889, as he set out on a last North American expedition to Canada and Alaska on the steamer "Ancon" in search of inspiring scenery to paint, even as the popularity of his landscapes and his fortunes were in decline. After stopping at Juneau, Ft. Wrangell, Sitka, and touring Glacier Bay, the ship was wrecked in Loring Bay. This painting of the Alaskan coastline with a group of hunters about to kill a fierce polar bear was either done while on the expedition or upon artistís return to his studio. Toward the end of 19th century the atmospheric, romantic renderings of the largely unexplored American wilderness were going out of fashion. The public was turning toward more modern Barbizon and Impressionist movements whose artists used rugged and lively use of brush strokes with heavy impasto. Albert Bierstadt belonged to a Dusseldorf School which was criticized at the time as lacking in emotion and for being "hard", due to the lack of texture in the paint application. A critic in 1863 describing Bierstadtís "The Mountain Brook", now in the Collection of The Art Institute of Chicago, voiced his frustration at Bierstadtís heavy sense of paint, stating "The large boulder in the centre is not stone-like in texture, but rather like a huge mass of grey paint" (New York Leader, April 18,1863, quoted in Anderson and Ferber 1990, 193).

194 194

There is a lot of that ìgrey mass" present in this particular painting, but contrary to the opinions of the 1863 critics, this rendering of the Alaskan barren ice-covered landscape perfectly evokes the sense of loneliness and presence of danger. As in "Alaskan Coast Range" (at the Smithsonian American Art Museum), the artist uses cool color scheme and thin layers of paint to also evoke this particular feeling in the viewer. Even though his art became outmoded during 1890ís, Albert Bierstadtís impact upon the American landscape tradition of the nineteenth century remains strong. His depictions of the largely unspoiled beauty of the great American West and North executed with dramatic light and meticulous attention to details, still fills the public with awe. His works can be found in major public and private collections throughout North America and Europe, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Wadsworth Atheneum, and the National Gallery of Canada.

1835 American Sterling Silver Coffeepot in the Colonial Taste, second quarter 20th century, Currier & Roby for Robert. F. Ensko, New York City, New York, in the manner of Jacob Hurd (Boston, 1702/03‑1758), of conical form with hinged and domed lid with toupie finial, slightly curved paneled spout and scroll-mounted, crested wooden handle, h. 9”, dia. 4‑3/8”, l. 8‑1/4”, 25.81 t. oz. (including wooden handle). Ernest M. Currier (1867‑1936) and Harry E. Roby (1862‑1921) established their silver firm in New York in 1901. Both men were born in cities known for their silver production - Newburyport, Massachusetts and Concord, New Hampshire, respectively, and were among the last generation of silversmiths to undergo a formal apprenticeship. Robert F. Ensko (1855‑1934) was a Manhattan antiques dealer, not a trained silversmith, but his contribution to the field of silver scholarship cannot be underestimated. These men were among the first to study the tradition of silversmithy in the United States, and may be credited with the twin foundations of all modern scholarship on the subject: Ensko’s 1915 Makers of Early American Silver and Currier’s 1938 Marks of Early American Silversmiths. They evidently enjoyed a cordial relationship, and manufacturers Currier and Roby are known to have supplied Ensko’s shop with fine reproductions of early American silver, including the present and following lot.

1847 Rare Fifty-Five Piece Set of Art Deco “Contempora” Pattern Sterling Silver Flatware, designed in 1929 by Eliel Saarinen (1873‑1950), manufactured by Dominick & Haff, New York City, New York, complete for eight persons, including eight dinner forks, l. 7‑1/4”, eight salad forks, l. 6‑1/4”, eight teaspoons, l. 5‑7/8”, eight soup spoons, l. 6”, eight dinner knives with stainless steel “New French”-shaped blades, l. 8‑7/8” eight butter spreaders, 6‑1/2”, a tablespoon, l. 8‑1/2”, a sauce ladle, l. 6‑1/4”, a sugar spoon, l. 6”, a serving fork, l. 9”, and a two-piece carving set with stainless steel fittings, including a carving fork, l. 9”, and knife, l. 10”, no monograms, 53.44 total t. oz. (excluding items with stainless steel fittings). Gottlieb Eliel Saarinen was born in Rantasalmi, Finland on August 20, 1873, and educated at the Helsinki Institute of Technology. His first major work was the Finnish Pavilion at the 1900 World’s Fair, and it established the two stylistic influences with which he would become permanently associated: the Gothic Revival and Art Nouveau. His other important works in Helsinki include the National Museum (1904), the Railway Station (1909) and the Marble Palace (1918). In 1922 he entered the design competition sponsored by the Chicago Tribune for its new headquarters. His design, though widely regarded as the best, came in second to a design submitted by John M. Howells and Raymond Hood. (Saarinen’s design would be realized in the 1929 Gulf Building in Houston Texas, and its influence can bee seen in Hood’s own Rockefeller Center (1939) in New York and even Cesar Pelli’s 181 West Madison (1990) in Chicago.) Following this noteriety, Saarinen moved permanently to the United States in 1923, where designed the campus of the Cranbook Educational Community, founded as an American equivalent to the Bauhaus. He was invited to participate the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s eleventh exhibition of contemporary design in 1929, entitled “The Architect and the Industrial Arts.” Noted architects of the day were invited to design thirteen room settings, with the stipulation that no object displayed could be in current production. Saarinen created a dining room, and for it designed four flatware patterns to be displayed on the table. The display sets were manufactured by the leading silver companies of the day Dominick & Haff, Reed & Barton, Towle and International Silver - although only Dominick and Haff would put their prototype into production. The result was the modernist “Contempora”, whose sleek, lobed “skyscraper”style handle reflected the height of the Art Deco style. Unfortunately, the pattern was not successful, a victim of the Great Depression. (Although one of Saarinen’s innovations - the long-handled, short-bladed “Viande”- or “Grille”-style design - enjoyed a modest post-war success in some International Silver designs. He continued to teach at Cranbrook (where his students included Ray and Charles Eames) and later became a professor at the University of Michigan. He died in Michigan on July 1, 1950. His son, Eero (1910‑1961) would become of the most important architects and designers of the 20th century, his famous designs including the St. Louis Gateway Arch, the Washington Dulles International Airport Main Terminal and the Womb Chair.

1865 Important American Renaissance Revival ParcelGilt and Rosewood Sofa, Attributed to Gustave Herter Firm, ca 1861‑1865, the scrolling stiles capped by bronze roundels and extending to open arms each terminating in winged female masks on foliate-carved stylized sabre legs now upholstered after the period fashion in tufted claret plush, h. 37”, w. 79”, d. 25”. A nearly identical sofa with exposed, rather than the upholstered seat rail, is in the permanent collection of the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, and is illustrated in, “The Magazine Antiques”, August 1990, plate XXII. A mate to that sofa sold in this gallery November 19, 2000 for $25,875.00. Gustave Herter immigrated to the United States at the age of 18 from his native Stuttgart, Germany in 1848. Through a series of partnerships and associations with such leading decorators and cabinetmakers as Tiffany and Company, E. Hutchings, August Pottier, Thomas Brooks, and Erasmus Bulkley, Herter quickly rose to the pinnacle of his profession. By 1858, he was sole proprietor of his own firm. About 1860, Gustav’s younger stepbrother, Christian, immigrated to New York. After a brief stint working at Tiffany and Company, he joined Gustav’s firm, which was to be renamed Herter Brothers in 1865. The Herter firm quickly became the nation’s preeminent cabinetmaking and decorating firm, counting among its clients, the White House and such notable Gilded Age barons as J. Pierpont Morgan, Milton Latham, Mark Hopkins, and William Vanderbilt. The design antecedents for the present sofa can be seen in a sofa crafted in 1860 for Tuggles S. Morse, now in the collection of the Morse-Libby Mansion, Portland, Maine. The Morse sofa appears to have drawn upon an 1858 design by Alexandre-Georges Fourdinois. The present sofa and one in the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, share the same distinctive curved seat stile, upholstered back structure, and general dimensions with the Morse sofa. The modified saber legs and seat rail on the present example is an expression of the firm’s evolving vocabulary, as they adapted designs to changing styles and client tastes.

For purchases made by cash, check or wire transfer, the buyer’s premium shall be discounted 3% of this 23%. On the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer, the highest bidder shall be deemed to have purchased the offered lot in accordance with all of the conditions set forth herein and thereupon (a) assumes full risk and responsibility therefor (b) if requested will sign a confirmation of purchase thereof, and (c) will pay the purchase price in full. The Company reserves the right to withdraw any lot at any time before the actual sale. Unless otherwise announced by the auctioneer at the time of sale, all bids are per lot as numbered in the catalog and no lot shall be divided for sale. The Company reserves the right to reject a bid from any bidder. The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer shall be the purchaser. In the event of any dispute between bidders, or in the event the auctioneer doubts the validity of any bid, the auctioneer shall have sole and final discretion either to determine the successful bidder or to re-offer and resell the lot in dispute. If any dispute arises after the sale, the Company’s sales records shall be conclusive in all respects. In the event of a tie bid between an absentee bidder and a live bidder, the lot will be sold to the live bidder. If a lot is offered subject to a reserve (the confidential minimum price below which the lot will not be sold), the Company may implement such reserve by bidding on behalf of the consignor, whether by opening bidding or continuing bidding until the reserve is obtained, by placing consecutive bids or bids in response to other bidders. Consignors shall not be permitted to bid on their own items. While the Company has endeavored to catalog and describe the lots correctly, each lot is sold “as is”, and neither the Company nor the seller warrants or represents, nor shall be responsible for, the description, genuineness, provenance, importance, or condition of a lot. No statement contained in the catalog or made verbally prior to or during the sale shall be deemed to express any warranty, representation, or assumption of responsibility by the Company or the Seller. In the event that the buyer of any lot fails to pay the purchase price thereof when due, the Company shall have the option, at its sole discretion, to (a) enforce payment by civil action or other proceedings against the buyer; (b) to void the sale as if said sale had not occurred; or (c) to exercise any other remedy or remedies available under the law, including but not limited to a second sale of said item in accordance with the provisions of Louisiana Civil Code, Article 2622, including the subsequent enforcement of any deficiency against the initial buyer (d) to charge successful bids to your credit card, including the 23% buyer premium. The Company reserves the right to require that advance bids received either by mail or by means of telecommunications be accompanied by a 25% deposit. The Company further reserves the right to require payment in full of the sales price (“Hammer Price”) at the moment of successful bid. The Purchase Price must be paid by the successful bidder on or prior to the close of the auction. Checks are not acceptable unless a buyer is accredited with the Company; otherwise certified checks are required. Absolutely no items may be removed before the end of the auction. All items must be removed by the purchaser thereof promptly after the auction. The Company is not liable for any damage to goods after they have been sold.
