76A Helen Frankenthaler (American, 1928-2011) Tales of Genji III, 1998, total edition of 60, published and printed by Tyler Graphics Ltd., Mount Kisco, New York. Numbered and signed “35/36 Frankenthaler” in pencil l.r., printer/publisher’s dry stamp l.r. Color woodcut with pochoir on gray TGL handmade paper, sheet/image size 47 x 41 1/2 in. (119.4 x 106.7 cm), framed.

Condition: Deckled edges, subtle cockling, floated within the frame, not examined out of frame.

N.B. Helen Frankenthaler was part of the second generation of Abstract Expressionists, and a leader in the Color Field movement. To push herself to grow as an artist she turned to printmaking, beginning with lithography in 1961. The process of drawing with crayon on stone was not a huge leap for her gestural mark making, although other technical issues allowed her to experiment and grow.

40

The shift to the making of woodcuts, beginning with Essence Mulberry of 1977, however, challenged her more. The process of carving and cutting blocks of wood is slow and controlled, making spontaneity and gesture much more difficult. This is to say nothing of the laborious challenge of inking and printing the blocks. From the beginning, her process for making woodcuts was a collaboration, especially with master printer Kenneth Tyler and his workshop.

Jaklyn Babington’s essay for the exhibition Against the Grain: The Woodcuts of Helen Frankenthaler describes the process of creation and collaboration for the Tales of Genji series of 1995: to create “…a woodcut with painterly resonance…Tyler suggested to Frankenthaler that she could communicate to the workshop of printers and more importantly, remain true to her unique style by painting her ideas for the printed works onto pieces of wood.

Additional information and photos at www.skinnerinc.com

Supplied with wood, paint and brushes, Frankenthaler worked alone in the artist’s studio at Tyler Graphics painting the maquettes for the Tales of Genji. From the painted studies, tracings were made and woodblocks were carved by the ukiyo-e trained Japanese carver…In order to create the lush transparent washes of colour, the printers had to work quickly with wet sheets of paper that, under the pressure of the printing press, would force the inks to bleed and blend into one another. Through trial and error and laborious proofing sessions, the workshop gradually overcame these technical difficulties.

With the Tales of Genji series Frankenthaler had placed not only herself but the entire workshop outside of their comfort zone.”1 1. https://nga.gov.au/exhibition/frankenthaler/default. cfm?MnuID=4

Caulfield had used the image in a fold-out spread, where multiple versions of the image demonstrated how a new Kodak home color processing system could be used to manipulate color photographs.1 This presentation would have instantly appealed to Warhol who ultimately reused the image with countless color configurations, just as Caulfield had done in the magazine. The original image was rectangular and depicted seven hibiscus blossoms. Warhol cropped and manipulated it into a square composition of four blooms, even cutting, pasting, and rotating one of the blooms to a new position closer to three of its companions. The shift to a square composition allowed him to play with the composition’s orientation. Warhol also varied the sizes and media of the composition, but always incorporated his screenprinting technique.

An important aspect of Warhol’s manipulation of Caulfield’s image was to dramatically increase the contrast of the image.

The result removed all shadows and highlights from the blossoms and turned the leaves and grasses beneath them into a flat pattern.

Warhol’s first show at the prestigious Leo Castelli Gallery opened in late November of 1964, and focused on the first Flowers paintings. David Bourdon, an art critic for the The Village Voice, described Warhol’s Flowers saying, “The flowers appear to float against a murky background of waving green grass.

They are like cut-out gouaches by Matisse set adrift on Monet’s lily pond.”2 1. Warhol used Caulfield’s image without permission, and in 1966 Caulfield sued. The two settled out of court, and this changed one of the essentials of Warhol’s process. Going forward his work was based on images he composed and shot himself. In his defense, Warhol didn’t merely steal Caulfield’s image. He radically manipulated it to create his own image.

N.B. Adams began making the Special Edition series of prints in 1958. They were approved by him, but made by assistants. He signed them until around 1972 and initialed them until 1974. The Special Edition prints continued to be made, but without Adams’s signature or initials, because he wanted to distinguish them from his fine photographs, which he printed himself. New prints from the series are still made by Alan Ross, who began as Adams’s assistant in 1974. $1,000-1,500 120 Ansel Adams (American, 1902-1984) Old Water Tower, San Francisco, 1961.

Dr. Young served as Senior Vice President of Research and Development, and later as President of the International Division and played a key role in the development and marketing of Polaroid’s revolutionary products.

N.B. Ansel Adams’s interest in printing mural-size photographs began in the mid1930s. Adams preferred a smooth, matte double-weight paper with neutral tone, and the resulting prints were typically affixed to plywood or Masonite panels and coated with a thin layer of varnish. $4,000-6,000

N.B. Ruff began making portraits around 1980 at a time when the genre had largely disappeared from the curriculum of the Staatlichen Kunstakademie in Düsseldorf where he was a student. He decided on a specific format: bust-length portraits of sitters in their regular clothes with calm, serious expressions on their faces. Between 1981 and 1985, Ruff photographed his subjects against a colored background and made prints measuring approximately 9 1/2 x 7 inches. Beginning in 1986, he began using a neutral background and printing at a much larger scale so that the presence of both the sitter and the photograph become intensified, as is apparent in this monumental image. $2,000-3,000 138

N.B. The lot is accompanied by a letter from Spink & Son, Ltd., London, from 1937, to the American buyer, C.N. Greenough, Esq. of Belmont, Massachusetts, which provides the name of the sitter and some provenance.

The letter suggests that the portrait is “quite possibly by Reynolds.” The American buyer, Chester Noyes Greenough (1874-1938), was a Professor of English and Dean at Harvard University. Also accompanying the lot is a printed photograph of the library at Greenough’s home in Belmont showing the portrait hanging above the fireplace.

The sitter here is different from the portrait of Mr. Wilkinson (cat. no. 1881, done in 1771) included in the Reynolds catalogue raisonné

by David Mannings. The work is closer in feeling to portraits done a decade later. $1,000-1,500 211 Ubaldo Gandolfi (Italian, 1728-1781) Standing Male Nude Seen from Behind, His Right Arm Outstretched Unsigned, with an unidentified red wax collector’s mark with a heraldic motif affixed to the lower edge of the reverse.

220 Jean-Baptiste Greuze (French, 1725-1805) Portrait of a Young Man Unsigned, identified on a label affixed to the stretcher, inscribed “Property of/Stanley N. Barbee/Los Angeles” on the reverse.

Oil on canvas, 18 3/16 x 15 in. (46.3 x 38.0 cm), in a period frame.

Condition: Lined, scattered retouch, craquelure.

Provenance: Ex-collection Stanley Newbold Barbee, Los Angeles, purchased from Felix Goulêd, New York, November 11, 1937; then by family descent; Skinner, Inc., February 3, 2012, Sale 2581B, Lot 314; through to the estate of Robert Wynne, Massachusetts.

N.B. The painting at hand was examined in person by Dr. Edgar Munhall in the autumn of 2011. In his opinion, Dr. Munhall stated that the Portrait of a Young Man was painted by Jean-Baptiste Greuze sometime around 1800. A copy of Dr. Munhall’s written report, including comparable images, is available for inspection and will accompany the lot.

Born in Tournus, Greuze moved to Paris in 1750, where he studied at the School of the Royal Academy and achieved success with genre painting. He was named an Associate member of the Academy in the category of genre painting in 1755.

86

Additional information and photos at www.skinnerinc.com

He received commissions from Mme. de Pompadour and was praised

by Diderot for works that endowed art with morality. Like so many artists of the era, Greuze aspired to paint historical subjects, but did not find the reception for these that he had hoped. The refusal of the Academy to accept him as a history painter led him to withdraw from the Salon for thirty years. He continued successfully to paint portraits and figural works with great sensitivity and finesse.

In his report, Dr. Munhall wrote, “During and after the French Revolution, there was little demand for the serious genre pictures that had been Greuze’s forte throughout most of his career. He therefore turned to portraits, a genre at which he had excelled from his earliest days.

Revolutionary figures, lawyers, nouveaux-riches figures of society, even the young Napoleon Buonaparte sat to him, and though by now in his mid-seventies, the artist was showing no signs of diminishing talents.”

Commenting on the attire of the sitter, Dr. Munhall continued, “Such a British-inspired ensemble appeared in a number of Greuze’s male portraits around 1800...”

The painting is mounted in an 18th-century frame which is listed in the original 1937 receipt from Felix Goulêd. The frame shows signs of having been re-fashioned along the top and bottom edges at some point to accommodate the portrait. $15,000-25,000

Provenance: Private collection, Honolulu, Hawaii, 1950; private collection, Honolulu, Hawaii, 2005; through to the current owner.

N.B. Dr. James Yarnall reviewed this watercolor via digital photographs in 2007 and confirmed its authenticity in an email to the consignor.

A fascination with exotic cultures led John La Farge and his good friend, historian Henry Adams, on an extended journey to the South Seas islands in 1890 and 1891. La Farge said that he was “dreaming of a land of uncorrupted nautral beauty,” and this he found in the culture and unspoiled landscape of Samoa. La Farge was entranced by the lush tropical scenery and beautiful native peoples. He stayed four months in Samoa, considering this time the high point of his South Pacific tour. With precise observation and spontaneous brushwork, he captured their way of life in more than 200 oil paintings and watercolors.

The original tag from the frame backing indicates that this artwork was framed by E.H. & A.C. Friedrichs, Co., New York, sometime after La Farge’s return in November 1891. $15,000-20,000

302 Harry Jackson (American, 1924-2011) Cowboy’s Meditation Numbered, signed, and dated “9./Harry Jackson 64” in the bronze base.

Bronze with dark brown patina, height 22 in.

(56.0 cm), on a stone plinth.

Condition: Dust and dirt to interstices.

Provenance: The collection of Joseph Thomas Alvarez III, California.

N.B. This sculpture relates to Jackson’s two seminal works titled Range Burial, one version a painting and the other a bronze. Described as a study in stillness, Range Burial presented cowboys gathered around an open grave witnessing the burial of one of their own, presumably the victim of a stampede. Each of the figures was conceived by Jackson as an individual portrait. The artist wrote, “From the beginning I did individual figures, first from the overall sculpture...and then in connection with the paintings...

The whole thing has been like a wellspring for me. I wanted to focus on certain figures like you might single out someone at a gathering to get to know them better...”1 In the figure at hand, Jackson maintained that sense of individuality and dignity, with the cowboy’s eyes downcast and his hat in his hand. Even the pose of the horse, with its head lowered and tail down, reinforces the solemn moment.

This bronze relates most closely to the sole mounted figure in the painted version of Range Burial.

311 Harry Jackson (American, 1924-2011) Bustin’ One, alternatively titled Steer Roper, Dally Titled, signed, dated “.../© Harry Jackson/59” and with the artist’s thumbprint, all in the top of the bronze base, identified with the title Steer Roper on a presentation plaque affixed to the front of the plinth.

Bronze with green/brown patina, height 12 in. (30.5 cm), on a contoured metal plinth.

Condition: Dust and dirt to interstices.

Provenance: The collection of Joseph Thomas Alvarez III, California.

311

N.B. Harry Jackson created this bronze early in his career as a sculptor, just after his success with Range Burial and as he was finishing Stampede, finding relief in working on a smaller scale. Steer Roper was worked very broadly and roughly to stress the vigorous action of this everyday task, capturing the determination of the cowboy and the intense opposing movement of the horse and the steer.

Harry Jackson did two versions of Steer Roper, Hard and Fast and Dally, distinguished from one another by the cowboy’s handling of the rope. In the rodeo arena, the roper’s end of the lariat must be tied to the saddle horn “hard and fast,” but when working in the open, cowboys will sometimes wrap the end of the rope around the saddle horn for a couple of turns or “dallies,” tying off firmly only after the steer is down. $3,000-5,000 312 Bill Mittag (American, b. 1935)

316

N.B. This work depicts the smooth-haired Sicilian saluki belonging to the Contessa Jane Gradenigo, which the artist modeled in Rome in 1939. It is thought that the work is unsigned because it was conceived without a bronze base, where the artist would traditionally have signed.

The Justin “Bud” Lyman Cobb III Collection Skinner is pleased to offer a number of paintings (Lots 329–353) from the estate of long-time collector and dealer Justin L. Cobb III. Justin’s passion for collecting began with his New England roots and his love of its history and natural beauty. His collecting focused over time to encompass primarily his interests in maritime history, seafaring, and the countryside of his New England youth. Thanks to his wide network of fellow collectors and dealers, he assembled a collection of marine and landscape paintings by artists prominent in these themes from auction houses, art dealers, and private collections across New England over a career spanning 40 years. He was naturally drawn to the classic ships portraiture of W.P. Stubbs, S.F.M. Badger, and others who so evocatively captured the Golden Age of Sail in New England. His early upbringing in Vermont and Massachusetts (unblemished by its later rapid suburbanization and development) spawned his interest in the natural environment, its countryside, villages, and harbors; he was drawn to Emile Gruppé, Carl W. Peters, Aldro Hibbard, and the Modernists of the Cape Ann School who powerfully depicted this time period. For sheer joy, passion, and expression of action, he sought out the illustrative paintings of Anton Otto Fischer who so figured in fiction and captured the imaginations of many collectors drawn to the sea.

N.B. As a youth in Brittany, Robert Laurent loved the abundance of granite sculpture found in the region. His latent artistic talent had been recognized by Hamilton Easter Field, the American artist and patron who became his teacher and mentor. Seeing the work of Aristide Maillot in Paris in 1905, Laurent was inspired to become a sculptor. Subsequently studying in Rome, he was introduced to carving in wood. He soon developed a talent for carving fine frames, which he supplied to many leading artists of the day. Laurent’s earliest sculptures were decorative panels and figural work inspired

by African art and European Modernists. He did not care for modeling in clay but found inspiration in direct carving.

His first one-man sculpture exhibition at the Bourgeois Gallery in New York in 1922 included works in wood, stone, and alabaster. Alabaster became his preferred medium, admired for its transparency which he said gave it life and vibration. At this period also he found focus in his preferred subject, the female figure, in part guided by the works of Gaston Lachaise. By the 1950s, Laurent developed a new style characterized by flatter, more angular forms inspired

by Cubism and, more specifically, by the work of Georges Braque.1 1. The paragraph above was based upon information in the essay by Peter V. Moak in The Robert Laurent Memorial Exhibition, exhibition catalog, published by the University of New Hampshire, 1972-73. A copy of the catalog accompanies the lot.

Condition: Prominent craquelure and flaking with losses, rippling resulting from being rolled.

N.B. By the mid-1940s, New York painter Norman Lewis had abandoned the figurative, social realist style that he had pursued earlier in his career for abstraction. He employed broad, gestural brushstrokes and looked to diverse sources for inspiration, including music, nature, the work of other modern and contemporary artists, and issues of social justice and equality.

By the early 1960s, his paintings had lost most representational associations, though his rhythmic arrangements of straight and curvilinear lines certainly hint at the figural. This painting is a splendid example of the artist’s mature style, characterized by calligraphic brushstrokes and brilliant color. In 1963, Lewis helped to form Spiral, a group of African American artists including Romare Bearden, Felrath Hines, and Hale Woodruff, that was concerned with their roles in the civil rights movement and the art world in general.

The collective had disbanded by 1966, the year Lewis painted this work; however, he remained concerned with his position as an African American artist associated with Abstract Expressionist art. $8,000-10,000

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. The auctioneer shall have sole discretion to refuse any bid, or refuse to acknowledge any bidder. Any bidder that plans on spending in excess of $100,000 should make arrangements with the accounting department at least five (5) days in advance of the sale, as a deposit may be required to participate.

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 interest charge of 1.5% of the purchase price of any lot or item lot not paid for within thirty-five (35) days of the date of sale.

Skinner, Inc. shall have no liability for any damage or loss to property left on its premises for more than three (3) days from the date of sale. If any property has not been removed within three (3) days from the date of sale, at the option of Skinner, Inc. (a) 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 within the three days, and/or (b) Skinner Inc. may place the merchandise in a subsequent auction, without Reserve, to be sold to the highest bidder, and after deducting the standard commission and any additional charges that may apply, remit the proceeds to the purchaser.

5. Skinner accepts cash or check for payment.

The purchaser agrees to pay Skinner, Inc. a handling charge of $25.00 for any check dishonored by the drawee. Please contact Accounting for additional payment methods. Skinner does not accept payment by credit card for merchandise purchases.

6. If the purchaser breaches any of its obligations under these Conditions of Sale, including its obligation to pay in full the purchase price of all items for which it was the highest successful bidder, Skinner Inc. may exercise all of its rights and remedies under the law including, without limitation, (a) canceling the sale and applying any payments made by the purchaser to the damages caused by the purchaser’s breach, and/or (b) offering at public auction, without reserve, any lot or item for which the purchaser has breached any of its obligations, including its obligation to pay in full the purchase price, holding the purchaser liable for any deficiency plus all costs of sale.

7. In no event will the liability of Skinner, Inc. to any purchaser with respect to any item exceed the purchase price actually paid by such purchaser for such item.

8. Shipping is the responsibility of the purchaser. Upon request, our staff will provide the list of shippers who deliver to destinations within the United States and overseas. Some property that is sold at auction can be subject to laws governing export from the U.S., such as items that include material from some endangered species. Import restrictions from foreign countries are subject to these same governing laws. Granting of licensing for import or export of goods from local authorities is the sole responsibility of the buyer. Denial or delay of licensing will not constitute cancellation or delay in payment for the total purchase price of these lots.

9. Sales in Massachusetts, Florida, and New York are subject to the respective current sales taxes. Dealers, museums, and other qualifying parties may be exempt from sales tax upon submission of proper documentation.

10. A premium equal to 23% of the final bid price up to and including $100,000, plus 20% of the final bid price from $100,001 up to and including $1,000,000, plus 12% of the final bid price from $1,000,001 and over will be applied to each lot sold, to be paid by the buyer as part of the purchase price.

The bidder/buyer consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts and waives objections that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such suit.
