Henryk Gotlib, Polish/British 1892-1966 - Surrey landscape with trees and a gate; oil on canvas, signed lower right 'Gotlib', 63.3 x 77 cm (ARR) Provenance:the Estate of the Artist, no.100 Note: the work is similar in style to the painting 'Surrey Landscape' now in the Government Art Collection. Gotlib was a key member of the Formist movement in Poland, which rejected the seemingly restrictive standards of Realism, still very much dominant in early twentieth-century Polish art, in favour of an expressionism which was heavily influenced by figures such as Egon Schiele and Max Beckmann. The looser, more fluid application of paint which defined Gotlib's best works become even more pronounced in his later decades, as he produced expressive works in a unique style highly informed by the effect of colour. Works by Gotlib are in a number of prominent collections, including those of the National Portrait Gallery, the Tate Gallery, and the Courtauld Gallery in London, the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford, and the National Museum of Wales in Cardiff, among others. The artist had solo exhibitions at Roland Browse & Delbanco and Crane Kalman Gallery in London in the post-war era.
Isabel Rawsthorne, British 1912-1992 - Baboon; oil on canvas, signed with monogram lower right, 77 x 52 cm (unframed) (ARR) Provenance: Private collection and thence by descent Note: the artist was known variously as Isabel Nicholas, Isabel Delmer and Isabel Lambert. This work relates to the 'Baboon and Child, c.1964’ now in the Tate Collection and reflects the unique language of figurative painting Rawsthorne developed alongside her friends Francis Bacon and Peter Rose Pulham in the Post-War period. Bacon and Rawsthorne would go on to share an exhibition at the Hanover Gallery in 1949 and their relationship was a major feature of the recent exhibition 'Francis Bacon: Human Presence' at the National Portrait Gallery. Rawsthorne had made sketches at London Zoo throughout her life and in 1947 was elected Zoological Society of London Fellow. Like Bacon she was drawn to the baboon as a reflection of man's animalistic nature, here the vigorous yet delicate brushwork evoking a tension between physicality and fragility. Rawsthorne returned to the theme in the 1960s as a result of her experiences working at the Zaria Art School in Nigeria. Alongside her painting, Rawsthorne is celebrated for her position in European cultural circles across the 20th century, being associated with and depicted by figures including Jacob Epstein, Alberto Giacometti and André Derain.
