Henry "Henno" Michael O’Connor (American, 1891-1975). Ashcan school watercolor on artist's paper depicting a stirring WWII battle scene showing the horrors of war and the individual’s heroic reckoning with certain death and the ‘never-back-down’ mentality of American spirit, ca 1940s.Lot Essay:Henry Michael O’Connor was born in Brookline, Massachusetts on March 5, 1891. Early references allude to O’Connor’s skill as a boxer, a favorite sport and source of revenue for his education. He studied at the Massachusetts Normal Art School in Boston and the Boston Museum of Fine Arts School under teachers such as Joseph Pennell, Joseph de Camp, and Frank Benson. O’Connor also assisted Abbot Thayer in Dublin, New Hampshire for two years who then encouraged the young artist to go abroad. In Europe, he studied at the Académie Julian in Paris and practiced etching at the Kensington School in London.Early in his career, O’Connor seems to have been influenced by the Ashcan School of Realists in New York, although he remained active in Boston. The working people and sites of Salem Street in Boston’s North End was a favorite early subject of which he made mostly drawings. His fluid and precise linear quality is evident in several of the early drawings dating from 1914 to1919, which depict working class scenes from Charlestown, Gloucester, and Rockport in addition to Boston. Urban monuments and architecture became more frequent subjects in subsequent works. Some Boston landmarks depicted by O’Connor include Faneuil Hall, State Street, the Massachusetts State House, Harvard, Paul Revere’s House and Trinity Church.Two lithographs dated 1918 provide the first evidence of O’Connor’s activity in New York, although the main body of his New York work begins in the 1920’s. Shortly after the First World War ended, O’Connor opened a studio in the city and soon met Regina Summer, a New York City designer, whom he married in 1924. Due to frequent visits, he was still listed as a Cambridge resident into the 1930’s while he lived and worked in New York City. One of his New York etchings, “Looking from New Jersey to New York†was similarly portrayed by Joseph Pennell and Martin Lewis. O’Connor is also known to have spent time working in Paris in the early 1920’s. Four Parisian etchings appeared at the National Academy of Design in New York City in the 1927 Annual Exhibition.Much of O’Connor’s graphic work reflects his frequent travels. Some of his known trips include Gloucester (MA), Rockport (MA), Philadelphia, Chicago, Memphis, Indianapolis, Paris, London, Nuremberg, Dresden, Rotterdam, Venice, Florence, Siena, and several Canadian cities.As shown in countless prints and drawings, O’Connor was also an avid marine enthusiast. He shared this interest with friend and author Jim Connolly and provided illustrations for two of his volumes, “The Book of Gloucester Fishermen†(New York: The John Day Company, 1927) and “Navy Men†(New York: The John Day Company, 1939). He also designed the cover for the November 1938 issue of ASIA, published by the American Asiatic Foundation. His affiliation with the naval community as a petty officer earned him a portrait painting commission for six naval officers in NACAL. A portrait of Admiral Charles Wellborn Jr. may be located at the United States Naval College in Norfolk, Virginia.Other O’Connor sitters include Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Governor Charles Hurley, Dr. William O’Hanlon (reportedly located at the Margaret Hague Hospital in Jersey City, New Jersey) the Honorable Joseph Tallent, and James Roosevelt. The Roosevelt picture was reported to be somewhere in Boston, Massachusetts, though it is not clear whether this refers to the James or Franklin D. Roosevelt portraitHenry O’Connor died suddenly on February 25, 1975. Funeral services were held in Cambridge Massachusetts, and he may have been buried at the site of the Lakewood Cemetery Association.Sight; height: 23 in x width: 17 1/2 in.

Attributed to Henry Brocas Snr. (c1760 - 1837) “Watermill, thought to be the O’Sullivan Flax Mill at Blarney,” c. 1810, watercolour on paper, 66cms x 47cms (26” x 18 ½”). Dating from the early nineteenth century, this watercolour painting of a mill by a river can be confidently attributed to Henry Brocas the Elder. The location of the building (not given on the watercolour), has been identified by Alison Muir, researcher on the history of Irish mills, as likely the five-storey mill that once stood in the village of Blarney, beside the River Martin. Owned by James B. O’Sullivan, this flax mill flourished for several decades. However, today little or nothing remains of the buildings depicted by Brocas, as O’Sullivan’s mill was demolished to make way for the Blarney Woollen Mills. The watercolour is therefore an important document relating to Ireland’s industrial archaeology. The location is idyllic, and the artist clearly intended to represent how nature has been improved through the addition of these buildings and industrial works. Although best known for his portraits, mainly of actors, politicians and lawyers, Brocas also depicted landscapes in watercolour, using a rapid technique of representing leaves and trees that relates to the present work. In this painting, he depicts a range of industrial and domestic buildings, set in a woodland landscape beside a bridge. In the foreground, a party consisting of a man, woman and child, walk along a curving riverside path, viewing the mill and its surroundings. Rising five storeys, the mill is an impressive building, with the top of the waterwheel visible just behind the five arched bridge. It is protected by a high wall, extending along the riverbank. Brocas has enlivened the scene by adding in the figure of a man fishing by the bridge, and three men, also fishing, in a boat. Beside the mill are two bird houses, or dove cots, raised high on poles. Beyond the bridge is a three-storey house, seen from the rear. Another domestic house is visible on the left, a two-storey building with outbuildings attached. On the brow of the hill, behind the mill, is a ruin. At the time this watercolour was painted, there was an early eighteenth-century wing of Blarney Castle falling into ruin. Only a circular tower survives today, some distance from the castle. The windows on this eighteenth century wing correspond to Brocas’s view. On the extreme right in the watercolour is a series of low buildings. Including at least five artists, over two generations the Brocas' were influential in Dublin’s art world. Henry Brocas Snr was born in Dublin in 1762, the fifth son of Robert Brocas and his wife Bridget (neé Taylor) Largely self taught as an artist, in the 1790’s he lived in the Grafton Street area of Dublin, before settling around 1825 in Henry Street. In 1800 he was appointed to teach landscape and decorative painting at the Dublin Society’s Drawing Schools, a post which he kept until his death in 1837. Brocas set an example to students at the School by making sketching tours to beauty spots around Dublin, and sketching scenes from life, rather than working exclusively in the studio. His four sons were pupils at the Dublin Society and also became professional artists, giving the family a long association with the Schools. The family was also associated with the Society of Irish Artists, with the third son, William, serving as President. William was also a member of the RHA, elected in 1860. Brocas’s other three sons were James Henry Brocas, born c 1790, Samuel Frederick, born in 1792, and Henry Jnr, who was born six years later.  Samuel Frederick Brocas is best known for his views of Dublin, while James Henry Brocas was a landscape, portrait and equestrian painter: his landscapes and paintings of horses and cattle were shown at exhibitions in Dublin between 1801 and 1816. John Henry studied at the Dublin Society's Drawing Schools, winning awards in 1802 and the year following, as well as a medal for etching. He moved to Cork around 1834. The youngest son Henry Brocas Junior (1798-1873) succeeded his father at the Dublin Society’s Schools, where he taught for around two decades. A detailed account of the Brocas family is given in Patricia Butler, The Brocas Collection, (NLI, Dublin, 1997).

Mortimer Luddington Menpes, RI, RBA, RE, Australian / British 1855-1938- The young mother, 1911; pencil, watercolour and bodycolour heightened with white on paper, signed 'M.L. Menpes.' (upper right), 22 x 15.3 cm. Provenance: Private Collection, UK. Note: Menpes was an Australian-born British artist who worked in part as an illustrator, and who was known especially for his drawings and etchings. He studied under James Abbott McNeill Whistler (1834-1903), whose influence is evident in his embrace of the medium of etching, indeed with Menpes himself serving as a central figure in the etching revival of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Menpes’s output is defined by his small-scale, highly observational drawings, of which the present work is a particularly charming example. This work demonstrates the artist’s sensitive approach, using a plain background to focus the entirety of the viewer’s attention on the two figures.Please refer to department for condition report

Mahoney, ‘The Drawings of Salvator Rosa’, New York and London, 1977, no.46.4 (illustrated), 'A man turned to the left resting his right arm on a high block and holding a staff in his left hand'.Note: The present drawing relates to Rosa's preliminary studies for his set of 62 etchings of genre and military subjects entitled 'Figurine' - a group of 62 etchings of soldiers, peasants and other figures, depicted either individually or in groups of two, three or more - on which he was working from 1656 to 1657. It has been suggested that, apart from helping to spread Rosa’s fame, these 'Figurine' etchings may also have served to rebut claims, made by the artist’s critics, that he was merely a landscape painter without the ability to depict figures. As Richard Wallace has noted, ‘Rosa was very touchy about his reputation as a figure painter...With the Figurine he undoubtedly meant to show everyone, including his detractors...that he could master the human figure in an almost infinite variety of poses and expressive states.’ Often acquired as a complete set of prints and bound into albums, Rosa’s 'Figurine' etchings remained popular with collectors well into the 18th century.This study was probably drawn from life on the same scale as the etchings in preparation for Bartsch 43. In the finished etching the soldier wears a helmet and leans on his lance which he carries in his right hand. The essential pose of the body remains the same. Rosa’s individual studies for the ‘Figurine’ are characteristic of his graphic style in general. They are all drawn with swift pen strokes and feather-light touches of wash and they all display the same economy of line from which they derive their spontaneity and vigour. Rosa’s inspiration for the ‘Figurine’ stems from the etched work of Jacques Callot (1592-1635) and Stefano della Bella (1610-1664). The figures, many of whom are soldiers, are frequently turned away from the spectator, as in this drawing, as if secretly brooding some plot or conspiracy. As Dr Mahoney pointed out in the Hayward Gallery’s 1973 ‘Salvator Rosa Exhibition Catalogue’, the ‘Figurine’ gave Rosa the opportunity ‘to express several of his most important artistic attitudes, his most obsessive desire to be known as a master of the human figure in all of its aspects… and his wish to display his originality of invention, his ‘capriccio’’.Please refer to department for condition report
