Erik Nitsche (Swiss, 1908 - 1998) "Marina San Gorg in Malta" Signed lower right. Original Mixed Media on Illustration Board. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting was originally published on the Fleetwood First Day Cover for the Malta Europa 1987 Modern Art - Architecture stamp issued April 15, 1987. The strategic position of the Maltese Islands, situated at the crossroads of Europe and the Islamic World, is reflected in its overall architectural character. The synthesis of these two cultures provides the basis for the Maltese architectural and cultural identity. With the arrival of the Knights of St. John of Jerusalem in the sixteenth century, the introduction of both the massive fortifications of European royalty and the intricate elegance of Islamic design were wed. The architectural culmination of this union can be seen throughout the islands, and especially in the old city of Valletta, Malta's capital. Valletta's structures contrast sharply with the modern designs championed by native-born Maltese architect, Richard England. England has been in the forefront of Malta's modern architectural movement during the past twenty years. He has designed and built most of Malta's modern buildings. This artwork depicts England's Marina San Gorg Apartments built in 1981. It relects the synthesis of Malta's architectural heritage with modern design concepts. Image Size: 14 x 12 in.

Property of a Gentleman. Landscape with Fishermen. William Alfred Delamotte (1775-1863). Oil on canvas. In gilded frame. William Alfred Delamotte (Weymouth 1775-1863 Oxford) was an English painter and engraver. Delamotte was the son of a French refugee. His remarkable drawing skills were apparent from an early age and he enjoyed the royal patronage of King George III. After having exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1793, he enrolled at the Royal Academy Schools the following year, becoming a student of Benjamin West, another of the King's protégés and the President of the Royal Academy. Even during these years of study, Delamotte chose to turn his attention to architectural and landscape work. From the Academy he moved to Oxford, depicting its buildings in numerous sketches. In 1803 he accepted the post of Drawing-Master at the newly established Royal Military College, Sandhurst, a position he held for forty years. Besides producing watercolours and a few oils, he turned to printmaking by way of etching, lithography and soft-ground etching.

Architectural Capricii with Figures amongst Classical Ruins. A pair. Oil on canvas. Giuseppe Zocchi. Italian, 1711-1767. Pair documented in Giancarlo Sestieri's Capriccio Il Architettonico in Italia nel XVII e XVIII secolo catalogue raisonné; pgs 342-343; 18a, 18b. Zocchi is best known for architectural capriccios and also vedute, or topographical views, particularly of the city of Florence and its surroundings. His output was both prodigious and varied and as a young man, he came under the protection of the Marchese Andrea Gerini (1691 - 1766), an intellectual and patron of the arts from a noble Florentine family, who sent the artist to study the works of his contemporaries in Bologna, Rome, Milan, and Venice during which time Zocchi was exposed to the work of artists such as Canaletto, Marieschi and Panini. On his return to Florence, the Marchese commissioned Zocchi to produce the Selection of XXIV Views of the principal Districts, Squares, Churches, and Palaces of the City of Florence and of Views of Villas and of Places in Tuscany; a two fold series of engravings of the city and its environs intended to give to visitors as a memento of their stay in the city. In the years following publication of this series in 1744, Zocchi embarked on one of the most industrious periods of his career. He produced drawings and engravings for various printed works such as the Azioni gloriose degli uomini illustri fiorentini espresso co'loro ritratti nelle volte della Real Galleria di Toscana, amongst others, he took part in the decorative scheme of the church of San Carlo dei Barnabiti and completed numerous other public and private commissions throughout Tuscany including the decoration of the archbishop's palace in Pisa and the Palazzo Rinuccini in Florence. From 1750 onwards, Zocchi was taken on by the 'Galleria dei Lavori in Pietre Dure' in Florence to supply drawings and painted models for the Grand ducal workshop. He remained in this position until his death from the plague in 1767. Provenance: Collection of Dimitri Sursock, Beirut, and London.

Eugène Berman (American/Russian 1889-1972) Set design with a classical colonnadesigned with initials and indistinctly dated (lower right)ink and gouache24 x 32cmFootnote: The stepson of a wealthy banker and art collector, painter, illustrator, printmaker and sculptor, Eugène Berman received his early artistic training in Switzerland, Germany, and France. Together with his brother, Leonid, Berman also received training in his native Russia from venerated realist painter, P.S. Naumoff. In 1918, fleeing the Bolshevik Revolution, the family relocated to Paris where Berman studied at the Académie Ranson under Pierre Bonnard and Édouard Vuillard, both of whom would become crucial influences upon Berman’s artistic practice. At the Académie Ranson, Berman also studied under the instruction of architect and designer, Emilio Terry. Famed for pioneering the ‘Louis XIV’ style of architecture and design which combined different historical styles to create a richly decorative and fantastical aesthetic, Terry would inspire in Berman a love of architectural design that would become especially evident in his later work. In 1935, Berman, who had previously been living and working in Paris, moved to New York where he expanded his repertoire to include stage design, creating sets for several ballet companies and, notably, for the Metropolitan Opera. Often steeped in pathos and drama, Berman’s vaporous work presents a uniquely singular visual language and demonstrates a confluence of influences, from surrealism and neo-romanticism to neo-classicism and baroque architecture.
