Skinner, Inc. - Conditions of Sale 1. Some of the lots in this sale are offered subject to a reserve. The reserve is a confidential minimum price agreed upon by the consignor and Skinner, Inc. below which the lot will not be sold. In most cases, the reserve will be set below the estimated range, but in no case will it exceed the estimates listed. A representative of Skinner, Inc. will execute such reserves by bidding for the consignor. In any event and whether or not a lot is subject to a reserve, the auctioneer may reject any bid or raise not commensurate with the value of such lot.

2. All property is sold “as is,� and neither the auctioneer nor any consignor makes any warranties or representation of any kind or nature with respect to the property, and in no event shall they be responsible for the correctness, nor deemed to have made any representation or warranty, of description, genuineness, authorship, attribution, provenance, period, culture, source, origin, or condition of the property and no statement made at the sale, or in the bill of sale, or invoice or elsewhere shall be deemed such a warranty of representation or an assumption of liability.

3. Except as provided in paragraph 1 above, the highest bidder as determined by the auctioneer shall be the purchaser. In the case of a disputed bid, the auctioneer shall have sole discretion in determining the purchaser and may also, at his or her election, withdraw the lot or reoffer the lot for sale.

4. All merchandise purchased must be paid for and removed from the premises the day of the auction. Skinner, Inc. may impose, and the purchaser agrees to pay, a monthly storage charge of 1.5% of the purchase price of any lot or portion of a lot not removed by the purchaser within three (3) business days after the date of sale. Skinner, Inc. shall have no liability for any damage to property left on its premises for more than three (3) days after the date of sale.

Provenance Skinner is pleased to present the first of a two-part modern art collection from the estate of Anna Eleanor Roosevelt (née Braman) Grasso of Essex, Connecticut.

Ms. Braman was born in 1929 to Chester Alwyn Braman Jr. (1902-1964), and Anna Eleanor Roosevelt (née Hall) Braman (b. 1903) of New York. Her father worked as a Wall Street stockbroker through the Great Depression, and like his father before, held a management position at the textile manufacturer A.D. Julliard & Co.1 Her mother was a namesake and cousin of Anna Eleanor (née Roosevelt) Roosevelt (1884-1962), also known as First Lady Mrs. Franklin Delano Roosevelt through the marriage of her paternal aunt Anna Rebecca Hall (1863-1892) to Elliott Bulloch Roosevelt (1860-1894). As the First Lady was almost twenty years older than Ms. Hall, she adopted a maternal role toward her—including hosting her introduction to New York society in 1923—and was consequently fond of Ms. Braman, her youngest namesake.2 Ms. Braman was raised on Long Island and Old Chatham in the Hudson River Valley before attending Miss Porter’s School, where Jacqueline Onassis was among her classmates. She continued her education at Vassar College, and upon completion in 1951, married Dr. Thomas Arthur McGraw, a graduate of Yale and Cornell Universities. The couple spent their first married year in North Carolina where Dr. McGraw was completing his residency, but lived thereafter in New York City until Dr. McGraw’s passing in 1966.

The couple’s New York years were formative ones for art and rare book collecting, as they frequented auctions and gallery shows. During this time, Ms. Braman was active in the art scene as a reviewer for a Manhattan publication called Park East. Ms. Braman continued to refine and exhibit her collection with her second husband Mr. Graham H.R. Jenkins of Connecticut, and her last husband of eighteen years, Dr. Thomas A. Grasso of Connecticut, the widower of Connecticut’s first woman governor Ella Tambussi Grasso.

In her middle to late age, she promoted the artistic and literary life of her community in Essex, as the owner of the Clipper Ship Bookshop and member of the Connecticut River Museum. She was dedicated to music as well, and participated in several choral ensembles including the Oratorio Society of New York.

Ms. Braman’s art collection is wide-ranging in medium and style, yet can be characterized as dedicated to avant-garde modernism. She was an aesthete of the visual, literary, and music arts, and avidly committed to all three into her advanced age.

Louis Albert McMillen acquired his collection of Middle East modernist art during the 1960s when he managed the completion of The Architects Collaborative’s University of Baghdad.

The University of Baghdad was conceived in an atmosphere of rapid urban and civic development, funded by a growth in oil production after World War II. The Royal Iraqi government approved plans to build the new campus in 1956, and in the next year, held a design competition that attracted visionary International Style architects such as Frank Lloyd Wright.1 The Development Board, which was Iraq’s public works administration, ultimately chose Walter Gropius and TAC for the project, and in 1957, Gropius began his survey of the site.2 TAC was undoubtedly chosen for their expertise in designing educational buildings, which included Brandeis and Harvard Universities. In its overall form, the design of the Baghdad campus encourages fluid interaction between students and teachers, with classrooms, cultural spaces, and faculty buildings clustered at the core. It may be said that it expressed egalitarian and democratic beliefs that resonated with a population who was growing restless with the British-supported monarchy.

A turning point in Iraqi history occurred on July 14, 1958, when a military coup overthrew the royal government and a republic was declared.

In this post-Colonial era, there was “a great atmosphere of hope and new beginnings swept the country. Iraqi artists immediately took up the challenge to create work that would reflect post-revolutionary aspirations and social ideals.”3 As a result, a myriad artistic groups arose (e.g., “The Innovationists,” “The Angle,” “The New Vision,” and “The One Dimension Group”) in the belief that they were pushing new boundaries.

The artists represented in this collection, such as Dia Azzawi and Kadhim Hayder, were innovators in creating a modern Iraqi visual language, both by their practice and instruction. The works can be understood as trying to reconcile enduring aspects of Ancient Mesopotamian and Classical Arabic culture with the pressing artistic and political developments of their day.

Skinner Inc. expresses its sincere thanks to Colleene Fesko for her energy and expertise in helping to gather the works of art for this auction.

Dear Skinner Paintings Clients: As the newly named Director Pro Tem of Skinner’s American & European Paintings department, I present our May auction of American & European Paintings. I started here at Skinner in 1987 (rumor has it I was only 5 years old at the time.) Since then I have seen Skinner grow and change. What remains consistent, though, is the warmth and intelligence of the people who work here, and the personal relationships that the company has maintained with clients over the years.

Relationships between people are very much like the relationships between collectors and their art: the collectors are what make this auction so special. We are featuring two of the finest collections of modern paintings that Skinner has ever offered. The individuals who amassed these collections have wonderful stories to tell, as you can read on the provenance page of this catalogue. Their stories and collections, in turn, tell us about who they are as people.

The first of these is Anna Eleanor Roosevelt Braman Grasso of Essex, Connecticut. Her collection is a tribute to artists of the avant-garde modernist movement, and works to be sold in this auction include paintings by Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, and Henry Moore. Grasso was part of the social and intellectual elite in New York in the 1950s and 1960s, and her collection reflects her refined yet adventurous taste. Skinner’s September auction of American & European Paintings & Prints will feature Part II of this impressive collection.

The second collection comes from Louis McMillan, a renowned American architect. His collection reflects his travels to Europe and well beyond. McMillan was a member of The Architect’s Collaborative involved in the design of the University of Baghdad. Here he amassed a unique collection of modern Middle Eastern works from leading figures of the Modernist movement in Iraq including Dia Azzawi, Kadhim Hayder and Ismael Al-Khaid.

These are just two collections to be offered in this sale–there are numerous others, including some hidden gems. I urge you to seek out what interests you.

I have had the pleasure of working with many of you already in the past twenty years, and am looking forward to strengthening old relationships and forging new ones. Whether you are interested in buying or selling at Skinner, please feel free to contact me. As the director of the department, I am dedicated to the excellence of our staff and a high level of personal service to our clients. I look forward to your suggestions on how we might better serve you, and to seeing all of you at the preview and auction!

Provenance: Descended within the families of William Walters (1819-1894) and/or George Harold Edgell (1887-1954).

William Walters established a grain trading company in Baltimore, and invested heavily and successfully in railroads and banking.

During the American Civil War, he moved to Paris. Here he was immersed in the world of art patronage, and collected both fine and decorative arts. His son Henry (1848-1931), was also a collector, and his collecting interests were even broader than those of his father. The two collections were merged in the creation of Baltimore's Walters Art Museum.

N.B. Gillis Claesz de Hondecoeter most likely received his artistic training from his father, Niclaes Jansz de Hondecoeter.

Continuing the family tradition, he was the father of artist Gysbert-Gillisz Hondecoeter and the grandfather of Melchoir de Hondecoeter. In 1610, Gillis Hondecoeter moved to Amsterdam where he was appointed head of the Guild of Saint Luke.

Influenced by the paintings of Gillis van Coninxloo and Roelant Savery, Hondecoeter’s landscape compositions, blending aspects of realism and fantasy, convey a strong sense of depth and distance through their atmospheric light. $15,000-20,000

Herring’s use of color, in particular, inspired the young artist. In 1850, Tait, after viewing an exhibition of George Catlin’s paintings of the American West, decided to move to America. He settled in New York, where he painted views of the surrounding Adirondacks. He purchased a farm in Westchester Country, which offered the opportunity to paint animals in their natural environment. Tait is best known for these realistic, narrative scenes, often featuring animals and huntsmen, using rich natural colors. $15,000-25,000

N.B. Alfred Thompson Bricher grew up in Newburyport, a coastal town on the North Shore of Massachusetts. Bricher was largely self-taught although he attended the Lowell Institute in Boston. His earliest known work is from 1856; by 1860 he most likely had traveled to the Hudson River Valley to see first-hand the landscape that so inspired the artists of the Hudson River School. “Studying the scenery and the works of the major Hudson River painters, while perhaps looking over some of their shoulders, Bricher rapidly personalized the styles of Cole, Durand, Kensett and Gifford with amazing virtuosity.”1 A wonderful example of his work from this time, this landscape is both accurate in detail and romantic in its depiction. It conveys the subtleties of light and a rich tonality emblematic of the Hudson River School.

129A. Edward Mitchell Bannister (American, 1828-1901) Headed Home from Haymaking/A Figure Study Initialed “E. M. B.” l.r.

Oil on board, 14 x 10 in. (35.6 x 25.4 cm), framed.

Condition: Board slightly warped, surface grime.

N.B. Following the American and French Barbizon schools to which he was ideologically and aesthetically affiliated, the genre of “peasant life” and the subject of the agricultural worker is a constant in Edward Mitchell Bannister’s paintings and drawings.

The figure depicted here, a dark-haired woman wearing a straw hat to protect her from the sun’s glare and carrying a wooden rake, is returning from a long day of haymaking in the fields. On New England farms in the 19th century, there were strong gender boundaries between men’s work (which included care of the horses and cattle, tillage crops, the use of edge tools and any activities requiring major physical strength) and that of their wives and daughters (comprising of the housekeeping and childrearing, running the dairy, the husbandry of smaller animals, gardening and sewing). The urgency of haymaking, however, meant that these labor divisions collapsed, and women routinely joined their men folk in gathering the stacks. The subject of haymaking was revisited by Bannister and can be seen in other extant and unlocated Bannister works, both preparatory sketches and finished pieces. These include The Hay Gatherers (private collection) and Loading Hay (collection of Smithsonian Institution, Washington D.C.). The model for this piece was most likely Annie S. Monroe (née Jefferey) who posed regularly for Bannister during the 1880s.

This work will be included in Anne Louise Avery’s forthcoming catalogue raisonné on the artist. We would like to thank her for her assistance with cataloging this lot. $8,000-12,000 129A

Provenance: A private New England collection.

N.B. The son of well-known landscape painter Carleton Wiggins, Guy C. Wiggins was able to learn the art of painting early at his father’s side. He first studied architecture and drawing at the Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute, then studied at the National Academy of Design with William Merritt Chase and Robert Henri. His training in architecture may have influenced his affinity for New York cityscapes.

Wiggins started producing images of New York under snowfall in the 1920s. In an interview from 1924 Wiggins described how he was sitting in his New York studio on a snowy winter day trying, unsuccessfully, to paint a summer landscape. He said, “I sat idly looking out of a window at nothing. Suddenly I saw what was before me...”1 Wiggins was enthralled by the hazy views of New York buildings seen through gusts of white snow. While the majority of these views date to the early 1920s, he revisited the subject from time to time, and once told someone that New York during a snowfall was his favorite subject.2 1.

Condition: Subtle toning, not examined out of frame.

N.B. George Grosz is best known for his lively depictions of city life. A Berlin-born artist, Grosz’s work displays the prevailing artistic movements in Europe. His work was “altered by his exposure to Cubism and Futurism, attested to by his enthusiastic adoption of angularity, transparent planes and simultaneous overlappings.”1 Grosz moved to New York in 1933 following an invitation to teach at the Arts Students League. At that time, America was grappling with the Great Depression, the New Deal, “and a naïve desire for Isolationism.”2 Ralph Jentsch writes, “With setting the figure of a black man like a monument in the foreground of this watercolour, the artist demonstrates that this man is also part of the many faces a big city like New York can have.”3 The work will be included in Ralph Jentsch’s forthcoming catalogue raisonné of the artist. A copy of a photocertificate and letter from Ralph Jentsch, both dated May 21, 2008, accompany the lot.

Provenance: Collection of Henry F. and Stella Fischbach, New York; Estate of Anna Eleanor Roosevelt (née Braman) Grasso, Essex, Connecticut.

N.B. Matisse was deeply influenced by the sights he encountered in Morocco during the winters of 1911 through 1913, and nostalgia for this time inspired his later work depicting lush Oriental interiors.

The present work is characteristic of Matisse’s female portraits of the twenties that show an Arabesque interior with women, frequently in exotic costume “dozing or chatting there, with a dreamy look in their eyes…without a care in the world other than setting a calm, luxurious mood for the delight of a man who exists only negatively, only as he is reflected in the woman’s availability and expectancy.”1 At the same time, in this particular work, there is a subtle aggressiveness to her pose in her frontal display of wealth and direct gaze that may challenge the typically passive gaze of the viewer.

Exhibitions: Impresario Ambroise Vollard, The Museum of Modern Art, New York, June 9– September 7, 1977 [cover illustration for exhibition brochure]; Krannert Art Museum, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, January 15–February 19, 1978 (lent to the traveling exhibit by Mr. and Mrs. Graham H.R. Jenkins [Anna Eleanor Roosevelt Braman] on February 28, 1977).

N.B. The present work was one of eight original drawings included in the sale of a presentation copy of Souvenirs d'un marchand de tableaux by Ambroise Vollard, published by Éditions Albin Michel in 1937, which was pen inscribed and gifted to his chauffeur Marcel Z. Meraud.

Ambroise Vollard was amongst Picasso’s earliest dealers, beginning their relationship in 1901 and ending with Vollard’s tragic death in 1939. He was influential in introducing Picasso to prominent collectors, such as Leo and Gertrude Stein, as well as works by artists he represented such as Paul Cezanne, Paul Gauguin, and Henri Matisse. Though his role as Picasso’s primary dealer waned after 1911, Vollard continued to promote him over the decades through his work as an éditeur of editioned bronzes, prints, and art books.1 The Vollard Suite, a series of 100 etchings commissioned by Vollard in 1927 and completed in 1937, is among Picasso’s most ambitious print work in scale and subject. In the series, one of the themes examined is the artist’s relationship to his muse. While allusions to his lover Marie-Thérèse Walter figure prominently, three profile portraits of Vollard serve as an end cap to the series, presumably as a salutatory gesture.

Picasso was known to have made only a small number of portraits of Vollard in various medium, including the aforementioned etchings.

His best known portrait of Vollard is also his earliest, dating to 1910, which is a paradigm example of Picasso’s “analytic cubist” style. A graphite portrait on paper dated to 1915 is also known, which is a naturalistic rendering of Vollard in a formal seated pose. The present work, in its synthesis of facets and lines, strikes a balance between the fragmented depiction of 1910 and the meticulously composed portrait of 1915. It captures a moment of domestic absorption between Vollard and his cat. The frenetic lines masterfully convey the cat’s attempts to right itself from its vulnerable, cradled position, while the heavy contours of Vollard’s hand expresses Vollard’s attempt to tame its wildness.

The present portrait, a recently rediscovered work, may have been the inspiration for the etching with aquatint entitled Vollard et son Chat, c. 1960, as well as an undated oil painting in a private collection of the same subject.

Exhibitions: Romare Bearden: First New York exhibition, opening Monday Oct. 8 extending thru Oct. 27, Samuel M. Kootz Gallery, New York City, New York, 1945.

N.B. In 1945, Bearden was given a one-man show by Caresse Crosby at the G Place Gallery in Washington D.C. entitled “The Passion of Christ.” The works in this show “marked the beginning of a new phase of Bearden’s resolution of problems of composition, color, and theme in his art” and was “the first of four important series, all inspired by literary themes, which were to be exhibited in the midst of the down town New York art scene in the mid to late 1940s.”1 On Crosby’s introduction and encouragement, Samuel Kootz hosted a show of “The Passion of Christ” series a few months later, to great critical press. Nora Holt noted that “…[Mr. Bearden] feels his series, “The Passion of Christ” presents a symbol expressing the emotional events of that cycle-tragedy, love, hatred, fear, sadism, and sacrifice-shorn of literalism as a device, but conceived and designed in his own creativeness.”2 1.

N.B. Homer’s The Iliad was the inspiration for one of Bearden’s four literary series created between 1945 and 1948.

An exhibition of “The “Iliad” series was held at Niveau Gallery in November 1948. Stylistically, the works were consistent with his earlier literary series, where the colors were “prismatic, enclosed by the architectonics of the lines separating them” akin to the stained glass windows of Chartres cathedral.1 1.

Salvador Dalí (Spanish, 1904-1989) The Annunciation Signed and dated “Dalí 1954” l.c.

Ink, graphite, and watercolor on STEE-VEE illustration board, sight size 30 x 44 in. (76.2 x 111.8 cm), framed.

Condition: Subtle toning, small crease to l.l. corner.

Provenance: From the collection of Louis Albert McMillen.

N.B. The present work is characteristic of Dalí’s artistic vision of the 1950s which he called “Nuclear Mysticism.” This concept integrated Dalí’s interpretation of quantum mechanics with Old Master craftsmanship to create a new kind of spiritual art-making and viewing experience.

In 1951, Dalí published his “Mystical Manifesto” where he affirmed, in ecstatic prose, his belief that through Renaissance pictorial organization and subject matter an artist can express the immaterial “soul” of painting. Dalí writes, “…with the unity of the universe having been confirmed, clear as the aesthetic of Luca Paccioli or Vitruvius…it being observed that, every quarter of an hour and of a second, matter is in constant and accelerated process of dematerialization, of disintegration, slipping out of the hands of scientists and thus proving to us the spirituality of all substance, for the physical light of Dalí’s ParanoiacCritical Activity, this too, is ‘wave and corpuscle’ at one and the same time.”1 In the present work, matter and anti-matter is represented in the forms of Mary and the Archangel Gabriel, where the former is in the process of dematerializing (transforming from mortal to divine) and the latter as already dematerialized.

Nicolas Descharnes has kindly confirmed the authenticity of this work, and a certificate from Mr. Descharnes accompanies the lot.

N.B. Dia Azzawi was one of the founders of “The New Vision,” a group that aimed to create a pluralistic Arab aesthetic that looked to all Arabic traditions for inspiration and revision. In their 1969 manifesto Azzawi writes, “Let us remember the arts of the Fertile Crescent, Syria, and the Nile, and let us reject the world of rigidity and imitation to create a true and lasting relationship with our generation … We must tear tradition apart to bring it into existence anew … we must challenge it to surpass it.”1 Azzawi studied archeology at the University of Baghdad, graduating in 1962, while studying art at the Institute of Fine Arts, Baghdad. He was deeply influenced by early Mesopotamian culture and employed its “historical forms.” Azzawi notes, “I felt especially close to the Sumerian ideas. I loved the simple lines, the great big eyes...”2 In the present work, Sumerian influences can be seen in the flat, pattered arrangement of the mosque and other buildings, as well as the rounded forms of the woman dressed in hijab. Both human and animal are gazing to the sky, which may inform the title of the work, loosely translated as “the one who determines our fate.”

Azzawi currently works in London, where he has lived since 1976. He has had numerous solo and group exhibitions from 1965 to the present, and most recently participated in the 6th Annual Abu Dhabi Music and Arts Festival in the United Arab Emirates.

Oil on canvas, 36 x 50 in. (91.4 x 127.0 cm), framed.

Condition: Surface grime.

Provenance: From the collection of Louis Albert McMillen.

N.B. Hayder was amongst the younger members of La Société Primitive, better known as “The Pioneers.” The group, which flourished in Baghdad between 1950 and 1974, was comprised of artists who sought to “abandon the restricting and artificial atmosphere of their studios and paint directly within and from their outdoor environment.

Nature, city and village scenes as well as traditional Iraqi country life became their main focus for their works.”1 The Pioneers were the first of many artistic groups that arose in the 1950s out of a desire to establish a native Iraqi artistic language, and can be understood against the political backdrop of growing dissatisfaction with the British-backed constitutional monarchy.

Hayder received his BA in painting in 1957 at the Institute for Fine Arts, Baghdad’s first school exclusively for the visual and dramatic arts. From 1961 to 1962, Hayder studied theater design and printmaking in London at the Royal College of Art with such contemporaries as Barbara Hepworth and R.B. Kitaj. Upon his return to Iraq, he taught at the IFA as well as the Academy of Fine Arts in Baghdad. Hayder would later establish the design department at the AFA in 1974, and served for a year as department chair of Plastic Arts there. In addition to his academic career, he worked to promote Iraqi and pan-Arab artistic identity by serving on such organizations as the Society of Iraqi Plastic Artists, Union of Iraqi Artists, and Union of Arab Artists.

N.B.

He worked for most of his life in the figurative tradition, creating portraits and genre scenes of Provincetown, but in the early 1950s began to experiment with abstraction. The present work is an example from his Weather Map series, where he used New York Times daily national weather map forecasts as the basis for his depictions of the Cape and Islands.1 1. http://www.lenglefinearts.com/biographies.html
