ALMA-TADEMA LAWRENCE: (1836-1912) Dutch-born English Painter. Vintage signed and inscribed sepia cabinet photograph of the artist in a head and shoulders pose. Photograph by John Collier of New Street, Birmingham and bearing his imprint to the lower mount (his name crossed through in ink) and verso. Signed ('L Alma Tadema') in ink to a light area at the base of the image. The inscription, to a Dr. Williamson, is a little light although reasonably legible. Together with an A.L.S., L Alma Tadema, one page, 8vo, Grove End Road, St. John's Wood, 11th November 1891, to Dr. Williamson. The artist states that he has returned home and feels much better as a result of his correspondent's care and the rest he enjoyed at Ventnor, further adding 'I wish not to be quite forgotten in the Isle of Wight & send you therefore my portrait which please keep as a memento of one who is happy to have made the acquaintance of you & yours…..'

RENOIR PIERRE-AUGUSTE: (1841-1919) French Impressionist Painter. A fine, lighthearted A.L.S., Renoir, one page, 8vo, n.p. (Paris), n.d. (1892), to Paul Berard (‘Mon cher ami’), in French. Renoir announces ‘I just ran into the American in Graincourt, and suddenly I asked her if she wanted to come over for lunch tomorrow, and have some Wagremont hare. Aah! Aah! For real. This good Sir and this good Madam are well, how nice’ and further adds ‘We are going to have fun. Tomorrow will be a big celebration in Montmartre, and we’ll drink your health’. In a postscript, again signed by Renoir with his initial R, he informs Berard that he has arrived at his destination and that ‘rabbit and hare reunited’. With blank integral leaf. Accompanied by the original envelope hand addressed by Renoir to Berard at the Chateau de Wagremont. A letter of good association. VG Paul-Antoine Berard (1833-1905) French Banker and Renoir’s most important patron. After meeting in 1878 the two men became good friends and Berard commissioned several paintings from Renoir, including his own portrait completed in 1880. The artist was a frequent guest at Berard’s lavish family estate at Wagremont, near Dieppe in Normandy, during the 1880s where he was given the freedom to paint without interruption. Curiously Renoir writes ‘bonne Monsieur’ and ‘bon Madam’ in the present letter, confusing the masculine and feminine adjective agreements, perhaps as a private joke between himself and Berard to mock the way Anglophones (or the American referred to in the letter?) mix up the gender of nouns when speaking French.
WHALE JAMES: (1889-1957) English Film Director of Frankenstein (1931) and other horror films. An excellent, rare original pencil and watercolour drawing signed (‘J. Whale’) by Whale, one page, small 4to, n.p., 1920. Whale has drawn a fine costume image of the actor Dirk Daniell wearing a tweed checked suit and purple cravat and waistcoat as he lumbers forwards with his long arms hanging before him, the sleeves of his suit jacket evidently too short. Annotated in pencil by Whale at the side ‘Dirk Daniell as “Mr. Hawkins”’ and signed and dated in pencil at the foot of the sketch. Autographs of James Whale are extremely rare in any form and this is a particularly desirable example. One minor crease to the upper left corner and with some extremely minor traces of former mounting to the verso, otherwise VG Dirk Daniell (d.1926) English Actor, son of Frank Daniell (1868-1932) English Portrait Painter who exhibited at the Royal Academy between 1889-1921. Following the end of World War I, Whale returned to England (having been a Prisoner of War) and tried to find work as a cartoonist. Unable to secure a permanent position, in 1919 he embarked on a stage career, working as an actor, set designer and stage director and it is from this period of Whale’s career that the present drawing dates. It has long been debated as to whether it was James Whale or make-up artist Jack P. Pierce who created actor Boris Karloff’s familiar on-screen appearance as Frankenstein’s monster, with his shortened coat sleeves and awkward, lumbering gait. These characteristics are certainly evident in the present drawing and would certainly indicate that it was in fact Whale who devised the monster’s look for his 1931 movie.

Annotated in pencil in the hand of a collector to the verso, ‘Obtained for me in 2007 by Frank Auerbach. Freud hated signing & apparently this is the best F.A. could do for me!’. Rare. Very slightly irregularly trimmed to the lower edge, otherwise VG Frank Auerbach (1931- ) German-British Painter.

Pegoud') in bold, purple fountain pen ink with his name alone to a clear area at the head of the image.

ENGLISH SCHOOL PORTRAIT MINIATURE OF JOHN LOCKE wearing a dark blue jacket over an open collared white shirt, the blue enamelled reverse set with the sitter's name and dated 1694 in beads or micro-pearls, 6.5cm x 5cm in a brass frame surmounted by foliate c-scrolls and a scallop shell John Locke (1632-1704) was an English philosopher and physician, widely regarded as one of the most influential of Enlightenment thinkers and commonly known as the 'Father of Liberalism'
REMBRANDT HARMENSZ VAN RIJN (1606-1669) 'Jan Cornelis Sylvius', signed and dated 1633 within the plate, the reverse inscribed in ink with a monogram in a 17th century hand, etching, the sheet 17.5cm x 14.75cm, mounted on a card, the top corners stuck down; together with another etching 'Peasant in a high cap, standing on a stick', signed and dated 1639 within the image, 8cm x 4.5cm (2) Jan Cornelis Sylvius (1564-1638), a preacher in the Dutch Reformed Church in Amsterdam beginning in 1610, was the legal guardian of Rembrandt's wife-to-be, Saskia van Uylenburgh, at the time this portrait was made. It was to Sylvius that Rembrandt made his appeal for Saskia's hand. This portrait undoubtedly helped engineer the old man's consent, for Saskia and Rembrandt married the year after its completion. His hands clasped over his Bible and his head covered by a skullcap, the early Sylvius (Rembrandt executed another, posthumously, in 1646), conveys the asceticism of this religious scholar.
