* ALEXANDER GOUDIE RP RGI (SCOTTISH 1933 - 2004),BRITTANY LANDSCAPEoil on canvas, signed, titled versoimage size 49cm x 74cm, overall size 64cm x 89cmFramed. Note: Alexander Goudie was born in 1933 at Paisley and, as a child, showed a prodigious talent for drawing. He studied at Glasgow School of Art when William Armour was head of drawing and painting and David Donaldson was the ubiquitous influence. Goudie, as a student at Glasgow, demonstrated his extraordinary ability. He received the Somerville Shanks Prize for Composition and, later, his draughtsmanship and sense of colour was recognized with the award of the Newbery Medal. As a young artist he grew up admiring three great masters, Sir John Lavery, George Henry and James Guthrie; all artists who had bridged the gap between Glasgow and Paris. It was these artists’ glorious virtuoso control of oil paint that appealed to Goudie, as well as their genre and realist subject-matter. Alexander Goudie was elected a member of the Glasgow Art Club in 1956 and a member of the Royal Society of Portrait Painters in 1970. He painted a portrait of the Queen for the Caledonian Club, London (1992/93), and exhibited widely, showing at Harari and Johns, in London, the Fine Art Society, Glasgow, and the Musee de la Faience, in Quimper. Sir Timothy Clifford, former Director of the National Galleries of Scotland, said: ''At his best, Goudie could draw better than any of his rivals in Scotland. There was magic and vision in his art and, I expect, history will be kind to him.'' Collections: 79 of Goudie's paintings are held in UK public collections.Condition report: Condition is very good overall, with no visible signs of restoration, damage, or known issues. Provenance is from a private Scottish collection.

* GRAEME WILCOX (SCOTTISH b. 1967),FAITH HEALERoil on canvas, signed and titled versoimage size 102cm x 112cm, overall size 116cm x 126cmFramed. Note: Painted in the early 2000s this work was completed during a time of self-reflection and meditation for the artist, and a desire to "fix ourselves". The painting represents the same figure as both patient and healer in an attempt to represent this process of human reflection. After graduating from Glasgow School of Art in 1993, Wilcox continues to prosper as a painter based in Glasgow. He exhibits regularly in solo shows and group exhibitions throughout the UK and Europe. Recent work depicts people and events experienced in public spaces around the city. These paintings show figures engaged in ambiguous actions in half-remembered spaces. These situations and scenes have lodged in the memory due to some resonance or poignancy that can't quite be dismissed. The resulting paintings are partly an attempt to balance a sense of stillness with a sense of movement; a tension that hopefully generates a heightened feeling of the strangeness of everyday life and those around us. Graeme has collaborated on a number of multimedia projects with Mischief-la-bas-performance group and with other artists, culminating in projects at the Arches and Tramway in Glasgow and the Albany Theatre in London. He has also organised two large scale mural projects in collaboration with the East End Community Arts for Glasgow Health Board and devised and ran "Face to Face" photography project in Glasgow. This Arts Council funded project culminated in a temporary public artwork at the East End Festival in Glasgow. In 2011 he completed a prestigious portrait commission for the newly opened Conway Hall in London. Graeme's work is held in private collections in Europe, the USA and Canada and in public collections in Petrezovodsk, Russia and the Gulf State of Qatar. He is also held in the Corporate Collection of the Royal Bank of Scotland, Edinburgh. The most recent example of Graeme Wilcox's work we have offered was "On the Same Page" (a 112 x 102 cm oil on canvas) which was sold in The Scottish Contemporary Art Auction of 28th March 2021, lot 722 for £5000 (hammer).

* ALEXANDER GOUDIE RP RGI (SCOTTISH 1933 - 2004),A NIGHT AT THE OPERA oil on canvas, signedimage size 81cm x 86.5cm, overall size 92cm x 98cm Framed. Provenance: We are grateful to Lachlan Goudie, artist, writer, broadcaster and the leading authority on the work of his father for authenticating this painting and confirming "A Night at the Opera has been in the private collection of a long term collector of my father’s work, probably for around 40 years. The client was a keen opera fan and attended Covent Garden regularly. I believe it was a commission. The top hat was my grandfather’s. In my opinion, it's such a strong still life."Note: Alexander Goudie was born in 1933 at Paisley and, as a child, showed prodigious talent for drawing.

ALEXANDER SAMOKHVALOV (RUSSIAN 1894-1971)Portrait of Sergei Aleksandrovich Rinkevich,oil on canvas87.5 x 100 cm (34 1/2 x 39 3/4 in.)PROVENANCECollection of Sergei RinkevichThence by descent in the family LOT NOTESSold along a signed and notarized letter of provenance from the grandson of Sergei Rinkevich (copy available upon request)When Samokhvalov produced this work in the early 1950s, he was renowned for monumental Socialist Realist history paintings, as well as intimate portraits in interior settings, including the present and Girl in an Interior (sold for $131,000, including buyer's premium, at Shapiro Auctions, December 10, 2016, lot 7). The sitter, Professor Sergei Rinkevich, was an eminent electrical engineer and professor, best known as the purveyor of the electrical drive in the USSR. Dr. Rinkevich marshalled the founding of the world's first university department dedicated to the improvement of the drive, which, under his directorship in the 1920s and 30s, launched the rapid electrification of the Soviet heavy industry and navy.According to the letter provided by the sitter's grandson, Igor Sergeevich Rinkevich, who witnessed the making of the work, Samokhvalov painted the image over several sessions in the family's Leningrad apartment in the early 1950s. (See ref. 1 for a photograph of Igor Rinkevich together with the work). Capturing the likeness of one of the nation's distinguished scientists, Samokhvalov shows Dr. Rinkevich deep in thought, his fingers bookmarking a red volume -- a pose reminiscent of Renaissance and Baroque portraits of scholars, such as Bronzino's Portrait of a Young Man with a Book in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum. With characteristic economy of brushwork, Samokhvalov pictures his subject attentively and at a considerable scale, demonstrating his hand as a leading Soviet portraitist.Alexander Samokhvalov, one of the foremost representatives of the Leningrad school of painting, began his artistic career in 1914 at the Higher Art School at the Imperial Academy of Arts, where he studied under Kuzma Petrov-Vodkin. Unlike many of his peers at the academy and the Mir iskusstva circle, such as Eugene Lanceray, Anna Ostroumova-Lebedeva, or Alexander Osmerkin, in the late 1920s Samokhvalov enthusiastically embraced the development of Socialist Realism for which he is remembered. As in his most recognizable work — Girl in a Football Shirt, awarded the gold medal at the International Art Fair in Paris (which also exhibited Pablo Picasso's Guernica) — his paintings from the 1930s often showcase the first generation of Soviet women as the face of modernity and strength.CONDITIONUnframed, the painting is in age-appropriate condition.

Max Ernst (1891 Brühl - 1976 Paris) (F)'Chéri Bibi', 1973, Bronze, schwarz patiniert, Maße 33 cm x 17 cm, signiert, Gießerstempel, 52/175 nummeriert, partiell restauriert, Gießerstempel verschlagen, Kaufbeleg anbeiProvenienz: Die Galerie, Offenbach a.M., Privatsammlung Hannover,Literatur:Pech, Jürgen: Max Ernst - Plastische Werke, Köln 2005, S. 20.Spies, Werner: Max Ernst. Skulpturen, Häuser, Landschaften, Ausst.-Kat. Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen 1998, S. 183 (mit Abb.).Hauptsächlich für seine innovativen Techniken im Bereich der Malerei bekannt, war der deutsche Künstler Max Ernst genauso experimentierfreudig in der Bildhauerei. Spielerisch setzte er alltägliche Gegenstände wie Löffel, Muscheln oder Töpfe zusammen, um sie in Form seiner zugleich humorvoll wie mysteriös erscheinenden Bronzefiguren neu zu interpretieren. Als Pionier der Dada- und Surrealismus-Bewegungen, schätzte Ernst das Medium der Skulptur für die Freiheit und beschrieb diese als "mehr pures Spiel als die Malerei". Geboren in Brühl in der Nähe von Köln, entdeckte Ernst früh ein Interesse an der Kunst und brachte sich Malerei und Zeichnen als Autodidakt neben seinem Studium der Philosophie und Kunstgeschichte bei. Während seiner Studienzeit lernte er August Macke kennen und durch die Unterstützung des Künstlers und seinem Freundeskreis wurde Ernst ermutigt, sich als Maler zu betätigen. Er hatte seine erste Ausstellung 1912 in der Galerie Friedmann in Köln, doch seine Karriere wurde schon 1914 durch seine Einberufung im Ersten Weltkrieg unterbrochen.Die Rückkehr aus dem Krieg empfand Ernst als eine Art Wiedergeburt und gründete kurz darauf 1919 die Kölner Dada-Gruppe zusammen mit befreundeten Künstlern. Die Bewegung verstand sich als eine bewusste Ablehnung von bürgerlichen Normen und Idealen aber auch als eine Rebellion seitens der Künstler gegen die Kunst selbst, in einer Gesellschaft, von der sie sich aufgrund ihrer Kriegserfahrungen immer weiter entfernt fühlten. Dada blieb jedoch als Bewegung relativ kurzlebig und schon 1924 unterzeichnete Max Ernst in Paris das "Manifeste du Surréalisme". Ähnlich der Dadaisten verwendeten die Surrealisten den Zufall als wichtiges Prinzip in ihren Arbeiten mit dem Ziel - ausgehend von den psychologischen Theorien Sigmund Freuds und Carl Jungs - den Prozessen ihres Unterbewusstseins bildhafte Form zu verleihen. Obwohl Max Ernst schon 1938 aus der Bewegung wegen persönlichen Differenzen austrat, blieb dieser psychologische Ansatz für seine Werke von großer Bedeutung.Im Spätwerk "Chéri Bibi" lächelt eine kükenartige Fratze dem Betrachter entgegen. Obwohl sie aus blockhaften geometrischen Formen zusammengestellt ist, wirkt die Figur lebendig und verschmitzt. Der spitze Schnabel und die glänzenden Augen erinnern an die Vogelmotive, welche sich wie ein roter Faden durch Ernsts gesamtes Oeuvre ziehen. Die vielleicht berühmteste Vogelfigur des Malers war der Charakter "Loplop", den der Künstler fast selbstporträtartig in vielen seiner Gemälde als symbolische Darstellung seines eigenen Egos integrierte. Der Titel dieses Werkes bezieht sich auf Gaston Lerouxs gleichnamige Romanfigur Chéri Bibi: Ein Metzgerjunge, der mehrmals aus dem Gefängnis ausbricht, nachdem er unschuldig verhaftet wurde. Max Ernst (1891 Brühl - 1976 Paris) (F)'Chéri Bibi', 1973, bronze, dimensions 33 cm x 17 cm, signed, foundry stamp, numbered 52/175, partially restored, foundry stamp indistinctly struck, with purchase receiptProvenance: Die Galerie, Offenbach a.M.; private collection, HanoverLiterature:Pech, Jürgen: Max Ernst - Plastische Werke, Cologne 2005, p. 20.Spies, Werner: Max Ernst. Skulpturen, Häuser, Landschaften, exhib. cat. Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen 1998, p. 183 (illus.).Although primarily known for his innovative techniques in the field of painting, German artist Max Ernst was equally experimental in sculpture. He playfully assembled everyday objects such as spoons, shells, and pots to reinterpret them in the form of bronze figures, which appear both humorous and mysterious. A pioneer of the Dada and Surrealist movements, Ernst valued the medium of sculpture for its freedom, describing it as ''more pure play than painting.'' Born in Brühl, near Cologne, Ernst discovered an interest in art at an early age and taught himself painting and drawing alongside his studies in philosophy and art history. During his time as a student he met August Macke, and through the support of the artist and his circle of friends, Ernst was encouraged to pursue painting. He had his first exhibition in 1912 at the Friedmann Gallery in Cologne, but his career was interrupted in 1914 when he was conscripted for the First World War.Ernst perceived his return from the war as a kind of rebirth and shortly thereafter founded the Cologne Dada group together with artist friends in 1919. The movement propagated a conscious rejection of bourgeois norms and ideals but also as a rebellion on the part of the artists against art itself, in a society from which they felt increasingly distant due to their wartime experiences. Dada remained relatively short-lived as a movement, however, and as early as 1924 Max Ernst signed the ''Manifeste du Surréalisme'' in Paris. Similar to the Dadaists, the Surrealists used chance as an important principle in their work with the goal - based on the psychological theories of Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung - of giving pictorial form to the processes of the subconscious. Although Max Ernst left the movement as early as 1938 due to personal differences, this psychological approach remained of great importance for his works.In the late work ''Chéri Bibi'', a chick-like creature smiles crookedly out towards the viewer. Although composed of stark geometric shapes, the figure appears lively and mischievous. The pointed beak and shining eyes are reminiscent of the bird motifs that run like a thread through Ernst's entire oeuvre. The painter's perhaps most famous bird figure was the character ''Loplop'', which the artist integrated almost like a self-portrait in many of his works as a symbolic representation of his own ego. The title of this piece refers to Gaston Leroux's eponymous novel character Chéri Bibi: a butcher's boy who escapes from prison numerous times after being arrested for a crime he didn't commit.
