The Deutsches Maler Journal was founded in 1876 by architect Adolf Gnauth (1840‑1884) and painter Ludwig Lesker (1840‑1890) as an organ of the Deutschen Maler-Bundes [German Painter’s Federation], and dealt specifically with the technical aspect of painted interiors. Each volume contained a folio sheet of letterpress, four chromolithographs of interior painting designs, and anywhere from six to nine quarto sheets of stencil templates and tracing patterns which designers could use to re-create the lithographed designs. The journal’s contributors were among the most noted German architects and designers of the day, e.g. Georg von Hauberrisser (1841‑1922), Eugen Neureuther (1806‑1882) and Hans von Kolb (1845‑1928). Appearing as it did at the height of the German Historismus movement, the journal recorded an eclectic array of revivalist designs, including Greek, Roman, Gothic and Renaissance, which remain not only a documentary record of the era but also functional tools for today’s designers. Many of the stencils were reprinted in the 1960’s by Dover Press as Victorian Stencils for Design and Decoration, though in reduced size from these large-scale, period originals. [400/700]

The Gnauth lithograph is a fine interpretation of the 16th century carved wooden ceiling in Dachau Palace. The original Renaissance ceiling, carved in 1566‑1568 by Hans Wisreutter (fl. 1548‑1572) was transferred in 1868 to the Bavarian National Museum. It was there that Gnauth adapted the ceiling as a painted decoration for architects and interior designers, rendered here in rich colors and metallic inks. (The ceiling was restored and returned to the Dachau Palace in 1977.) The Hauberreisser lithograph illustrates his design for a staircase wall in the Munich New Town Hall, a grand Gothic Revival building which began construction in 1867 and was not completed until 1908; stencil and tracing patterns for Hauberreisser’s designs for some of the Town Hall corridors are also included in this lot. Many of the loose lithographs here are accompanied by the matching stencil/ tracing pattern. [300/500] Illustrated

183 Superb, Rare Chinese Hanging Yunjin Brocade Cushion Cover, 17th/18th century, the yellow silk ground finely woven with multi-colored silk threads having a central rondelle of interlocking clouds centered with a Ming-style Imperial dragon with horns, flowing mane, scaly body, feathered tail and five-clawed limbs presented full face and pursuing the Flaming Pearl, the central rondelle flanked at the four corners with four additional Imperial dragons all chasing Flaming Pearls among clouds with bats and a twin fish symbol, the edges bordered with rocky mountains rising from rolling and cresting waves, w. 53”, l. 61”. Nanjing Yunjin silk “Cloud Brocade” is as “soft and lovely as the clouds”. This ancient fabric manufacture dates back to the Three Kingdoms period (317‑420 AD) and is still only made on antique wooden looms as modern looms cannot duplicate the complexity of the weaving of this brocade. Highly prized throughout its history, it was only produced by the Imperial textile factories in Nanjing until the late Qing dynasty. Yunjin was produced on large wooden looms that required two workers, the “thread puller” who sits at the top of the loom and is in charge of lifting the correct knots and the “weaver” who is at the lower part of the loom and twines the pattern and weaves the material into brocade. Two skilled workers were able to produce four to five centimeters of brocade per day. To complete an Imperial robe, it would take two years. Due to the quality of Yunjin, it was often used as a tribute to the emperor. On September 30, 2009, UNESCO listed Nanjing Yunjin brocade as a piece of “Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity”.

Elkington’ s grand electrotype reproductions of Mannerist and Baroque metalwork were the subject of a recent exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York: “Victorian Electrotypes: Old Treasures, New Technology”, November-April 2012. The exhibition showcased around 110 pieces by Elkington and Franchi & Son, both of whom were contracted in the 1870’s by the M.M.A, in conjunction with England’s South Kensington Museum (now the Victoria & Albert), to create faithful replicas of the great masterworks of Europe. By the early 20th century, as the museum acquired original works of art, the electrotypes were consigned to storage.

Publication continued until March of 1803, although Heideloff’s name no longer appears on the imprint after April 1802.

Provenance: Descended through the family of Dr. Brace Whitman Paddock, Pittsboro, Massachusetts. A nearly identical table attributed to William Whitehead, sold at Christie’s, New York Sale 2414, Lot 104, on January 21, 2012. Another almost identical example including the same brass ring pull is illustrated in the original 1950’s publication, Fine Points of Furniture by Albert Sack, page 251. The “Fine Points” table is considered the “best” example and is described as the “acme of perfection of design in a bellflower inlaid table”. For further discussion on two other Pembroke tables with related inlay, see American Antiques from Israel Sack Collection, vol. 5, no. 29, pages 1386 and 4394, as well as pages 1254 through 1255 for a labeled Whitehead sideboard and companion knife boxes. Another labeled Whitehead sideboard exhibiting apparently identical bellflowers and very similar stringing to this table is illustrated in Antiques Magazine, September 1979, p. 553, and an attributed Whitehead sideboard is illustrated in American Furniture at Chipstone, p. 82‑83. The Chipstone sideboard shares several construction features with the Paddock family pembroke table, namely all poplar secondary woods, a horizontally stacked laminated drawer front, and a drawer bottom of one piece which is chamfered on three sides and fit into a groove at the front and nailed in the rear.

977 Jean Joseph Vaudechamp (French, 1790‑1866, active New Orleans 1831‑39) “Portrait of a Man and Woman, Presumably Baroness Louise Deconchy Receiving Word of Her Husband’s Death in Battle”, oil on canvas, signed and dated lower left “Vaudechamp, 1823”, 28‑3/4” x 23”, reverse label inscribed in pen and ink “Baronne Louise Deconchy, epouse du general d’ Empire Vincent Martel Deconchy (1768‑1823). Presented in the period giltwood and gesso frame. This rare work is one of the earliest surviving paintings to have surfaced by Jean Joseph Vaudechamp, painted in France six years after he began exhibiting at the Paris Salon, one year before he married his second wife, one year before the death of his teacher, Anne-Louis Girodet-Trioson, and two years before his first (and only known) state commission. Vaudechamp very rarely painted multiple figures in the same composition, either in France or Louisiana. This canvas is presumably a portrait of Baroness Louise Deconchy, wife of General Vincent Martel Deconchy who died on a battlefied in Spain in 1823. This could perhaps be a mourning portrait of the Baroness and her son or secretary, with the classicized bust of the deceased general on a plinth behind the writing desk. The younger man is holding an official letter in his hand visibly inscribed at the top “MEE Espagne”, again referring to the FrancoSpanish war. Regardless of the identity of the sitters, the portrait’s composition is a sophisticated one for the 33 year-old artist, as the figures face each other tete-a-tete. Even in the handful of multi-figural compositions he would create in New Orleans, the painter usually preferred to have figures frontal, playing to the viewers. Vaudechamp’s palette is brighter and slightly more acrid than the subdued one he would adopt in New Orleans after his 1832 arrival there. This work, like the Langres altarpiece and his later “Portrait of an Elegant Young Gentleman with Cane, presumed to be a Resident of New Orleans (Mr. Robley?)" reflects the artist’s difficulty when presenting a figure at more than bust-length, witnessed in particular by the lady’s lap and the extended leg. What he lacks in understanding of foreshortening, he more than makes up for in the handling of the face, fabric and details, seen in the design on the shawl draped over the chair. New Orleans Auction Galleries would like to thank William Keyse Rudolph, Ph.D., The Dudley J. Godfrey, Jr. Curator of American Art and Decorative Arts at the Milwaukee Art Museum for his generous contribution to cataloguing this lot. [20000/40000] Illustrated

At Buena Vista, Davis and the First Mississippi are credited for having saved the day against overwhelming forces. Locke was the personal bodyguard to Davis, and tended Davis’s injured foot during the engagement. After the war, Locke started a plantation near Gilmer, Texas, and founded the town of Lafayette, Texas. Locke became the Speaker of the Texas House, and in 1860 was elected to the state Senate where he served as a representative to the Texas Succession Convention. At the dawn of the Civil War, he raised 1,000 recruits to make up the 10th Texas Calvary, with whom he served as a commander through the war. After the war, he purchased 1,000 acres of land in Arkansas. In 1887, he was elected Arkansas’ first commissioner of agriculture. [700/1000] Illustrated

1019 Good Tiffany & Co.

Several design elements here - the stylized flowers and ferns, the spiral scrolls - are signatures of Tiffany designer Charles Osborne (1847‑1920). However, the pattern number - 4119 - indicates a design date of around 1876: two years before Osborne worked at Tiffany’s. (From 1871 to 1878 Osborne was a designer at Whiting, where he would return after his departure from Tiffany in 1887.) Whatever the case, this tureen is an excellent example of the stylized floral “Persian” designs produced at Tiffany’s in the Gilded Age. [2000/4000] Illustrated

1020 Tiffany & Co. W.K. Vanderbilt Private Pattern Sterling Silver Salad Serving Set, the pattern designed in 1884 by Charles Grosjean (1841‑1888), New York City, New York, including a salad serving spoon and fork, l. 9”, 10.42 total t. oz. Grosjean designed this pattern for William Kissam Vanderbilt (1849‑1920), whose initials are incorporated into the design of the handle reverse. Grosjean applied for a patent for the design on October 14, 1884, which was granted on January 13, 1885 (Patent #D15715). It is perhaps the most famous of the handful of private patterns Tiffany produced for prominent American families in the late 19th century. For more information, see Charles and Mary Carpenter, Tiffany Silver (New York: Dodd, Mead, 1984), pp. 98‑102, illustration 109.

Four-Piece Sterling Silver Paul Revere Replica Tea Set, the pattern introduced in 1916 after the ca. 1795 original by Paul Revere, Jr. (1735‑1818), including a navette-shaped teapot with conical spout and wooden handle, h. 6‑1/2”, l. 11‑3/4”, a conforming trivet, l. 7‑1/2”, w. 4‑3/4”, a helmet-form cream jug, h. 3‑3/4” and covered sugar urn, h. 9‑1/4”, dia. 4‑1/4”, each with a fluted body engraved with wrigglework and pricked swags and banding, 50.86 total t. oz. (including wooden handle). This set is a meticulously faithful reproduction of a five-piece set (with an additional sugar basket) created by the patriot Paul Revere in the last decade of the 18th century, reputedly for a young Virginia bride. At least, that was the provenance given when Tiffany & Co. helped New York judge Alphonso Trumpbour Clearwater (1848‑1933) acquire the set around 1914. Evidently the set was purchased - or at least loaned to the Metropolitan Museum of Art - in stages, the teapot and trivet first appearing in the MMA bulletin of January 1916, and the cream jug and sugar bowl in June 1918. These dates coincide precisely with the pattern numbers which appear on these reproductions by Tiffany, who evidently created them as a tie-in to Clearwater’s loan of the pieces, which was met with much public fanfare. Tiffany would go on to create several other replicas from the Clearwater Collection, though the set here is regarded as the finest. The Metropolitan Museum of Art acquired Clearwater’s collection permanently after his death in 1933; the Revere set remains on display today in Gallery 750 of the American Wing. For more details on the creation of the Tiffany reproduction, see Charles and Mary Carpenter, Tiffany Silver (New York: Dodd, Mead, 1984), pp. 267‑268, illustration 324 (the cream jug); for more information on the original Revere set, see C.

1033 American Iron Stirrup, the Footplate with the CutOut Letters “HCLAY”, 19th century, presumably for Kentucky Senator, Speaker of the House and statesman Henry Clay, h. 5‑1/2”, w. 4‑1/4”. A similar pair of stirrups is in the Collection of Ashland, the Henry Clay home and museum, Lexington Kentucky. Clay was a prominent horseman, responsible for encouraging horse racing and breeding in Kentucky. Sixteen Kentucky Derby winners can trace their lineage to Clay’s stable. It has been suggested by the staff at Ashland that their stirrups may have been a promotion campaign item for his failed 1844 Presidential campaign. The stirrup may also have been crafted to commemorate one of the greatest horses of the 19th century, “Old Henry Clay”. That horse is sometimes referred to as “America’s National Thoroughbred Trotting Horse” or “The Father of American Trotting Horses”. In the horses 30 year life span from 1837 to 1867 he sired a group of trotting horses that were commonly knows an “the Clay line”. Sometime after the horse’s death, his skeleton was exhumed and preserved. The mandible is currently in the collection of the Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C.

Lorencita Naranjo was born on the Santa Clara pueblo on May 25, 1899, the daughter of Valentine Naranjo (1875-by 1930) and Nestora Gutierrez (1879‑1980). She was presumably taught the craft of pottery from her mother, an accomplished potter (best known as Nestora Gutierrez Silva, after her second husband Adam Silva, whom she married after Lorencita’s father’s death.) Lorencita married first Epifiano Tafoya (1880‑1924) and second, after his death, his brother Margarito Tafoya (1888‑1980); they were the sons of Manuel Tafoya and Maria Deluvina Naranjo, and related to the great Margaret Tafoya (1901‑2001), acknowledged as the matriarch and best of the Santa Clara potters. It was in this great extended family of women artists that Lorencita flourished, enjoying a near fifty-year career spanning from the 1920’s through the 1970’s. She was a favorite subject of pueblo photographer T. Harmon Parkhurst, whose portraits capture a shy beauty (in sharp contrast with Parkhurst’s bold and iconic images of her mother, Nestora, another favorite subject.) Lorencita died on December 16, 1987. Her works can be found in the Museum of Indian Arts and Cultures, Santa Fe, New Mexico and the Lowell D. Holmes Museum of Anthropology at Wichita State University. [200/400]

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.
