Benedict Chukwukadibia Enwonwu M.B.E (Nigeria, 1917-1994)Anyanwu bronze et résine95 x 32 x 19cm (37 3/8 x 12 5/8 x 7 1/2in) sans la base.Footnotes:ProvenanceAcquis directement auprès de l'artiste par le Dr. John Akar (1927–1975), ambassadeur de Sierra Leone aux USA.Vente: Bonhams, 21 mai 2014, lot 47Collection privée, FranceAnyanwu est l'une des œuvres les plus accomplies et les plus reconnaissables de Enwonwu. Le mot Anyanwu (« œil du soleil ») fait référence à la pratique Igbo de saluer le soleil levant en l'honneur de Chukwu, le Grand Esprit. La figure féminine est la puissante déesse de la terre Igbo Ani. Pour Enwonwu, la sculpture était une façon d'exprimer ses espoirs pour une nation en route vers l'indépendance :'Mon objectif était de symboliser notre nation montante. J'ai essayé de combiner matériaux, artisanat et traditions, pour exprimer une conception basée sur la féminité - la femme, la mère et la nourricière de l'homme. Dans notre nation montante, je vois les forces incarnée dans la féminité ; le début, puis le développement et l'épanouissement jusqu'à la stature la plus complète d'une nation - un peuple ! Cette sculpture est de conception spirituelle, rythmique en mouvement et tridimensionnelle dans son cadre architectural - ces qualités sont caractéristiques de la sculpture de mes ancêtres.'-Ben EnwonwuLa représentation de la déesse par Enwonwu, avec son corps allongé et sa tête stylisée, témoigne de son appréciation des traditions artistiques Igbo, en s'appuyant sur d'anciennes sculptures sur bois et des portraits de la reine mère d'Edo. Le père d'Enwonwu était un homme spirituel et avait fréquemment sculpté des images pour les sanctuaires d'Onitsha. Les souvenirs de ces sanctuaires ont laissé une marque indélébile sur le jeune Benoît et ont façonné son point de vue selon lequel l'art et la religion étaient inextricablement liés. Dans la tradition Igbo, les sculpteurs étaient considérés comme des intermédiaires entre le monde des humains et celui des esprits. Ils ont travaillé dans un état de transe, inspiré par des poussées intenses d'énergie mentale.La forme de la sculpture lui est venue dans une vision tôt un matin alors qu'il oscillait entre le rêve et l'éveil :'Une forme féminine souple et gracieuse émergeant du soleil dans une brillante pluie de lumière... elle se dressait vers lui dans un large arc curviligne... à l'horizon, s'effilant jusqu'à un point...'Les circonstances entourant la création d'Anyanwu - l'inspiration spirituelle d'Enwonwu - le relient à la tradition Igbo de l'artiste en tant que médium spirituel. Souvent désigné comme le « père du modernisme africain », Enwonwu était très préoccupé par la forme et l'expérimentation stylistique. Cependant, contrairement à ses contemporains européens, il n'était pas motivé par le principe de « l'art pour l'art ». En s'engageant dans les traditions de ses ancêtres, Enwonwu investit Anywanwu d'une signification sociale plus complexe.La première sculpture Anyanwu (1954-5), réalisée pour le Musée national de Lagos, a reçu un tel succès qu'une autre a été commandée pour le siège des Nations Unies à New York (1966). Cette version apparaît dans plusieurs grandes collections publiques et privées, démontrant souvent une variété de patine et de petites différences dans les bras et la longueur de la coiffure « bec de poulet ».Click for an instant shipping quoteFor further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

HENRY J. MORGAN (England, 1839-1917)."HMS Duncan at Sheerness," 1891.Oil on canvas.Signed and dated in the lower right corner.Measurements: 50 x 74 cm; 58 x 82 cm (frame).In this occasion we present a magnificent view of the English locality of Sheerness in which it is reproduced, with all detail, a nautical scene that reflects the foreign trade and the English naval fleet. The imposing ship of the Royal Navy crowned by flags, with its sails swollen by the wind, moves away from the dock while it fights against the voracious movement of the tumultuous waves, with the city of Sheerness in the background. It is a scene immersed in the dynamism and movement that characterized this type of marine compositions, in which other smaller vessels appear to complete the careful composition. The scene in general is treated with a descriptive and highly narrative language. This is due to the genre itself, since the main purpose of this painting is to relate a historical fact, and not to capture the beauty of nature. The aforementioned dark sea is joined by the proliferation of characters, such as the crews of nearby ships, perfectly represented leaning over the side. Landscape painting acquired a remarkable importance in Europe from the second half of the 17th century and throughout the 18th and 19th centuries. During this period artists produced both urban views or architectural interiors where the human presence was non-existent or completely secondary, as well as rural or country landscapes and seascapes.

ALEJANDRO FERRANT Y FISCHERMANS (Madrid, 1843 - 1917)."Young man with parrot", 1854.Oil on canvas.Presents period frame.Signed and dated in the upper right corner.Measurements: 34 x 23 cm; 54 x 46.5 cm (frame).Scene of interior that stands out for its sobriety in the architectural conception, contrasted with the luminosity of the figures that conform the scene. The painting itself has been conceived by the artist as a game of opposites, not only for what has been mentioned, but also for the protagonists themselves; a woman dressed in regionalist clothes that allude to the deepest traditions of the land, and right next to her a parrot, representing a great exoticism. It should be noted that both harmonize in color, the bird thanks to its plumage and the woman due to the skirt, which is somewhat reminiscent of the clothing of the painting "La Ciocciara", painted by Alejandro Ferrant in 1881 and currently belongs to the collection of the Prado Museum.Alejandro Ferrant y Fischermans studied with his uncle, the artist and academic Luis Ferrant y Llausas, at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of San Fernando. He was a protégé and pensioner of the Infante Don Sebastián. In 1874 he traveled to Rome to reinforce his studies when he was pensioned by the government of Spain in the first promotion of painters of the Spanish Academy of Fine Arts in Rome, together with Francisco Pradilla, Casto Plasencia, Manuel Castellano, Eduardo Sánchez Solá and Jaime Morera. He was director of the Museo de Arte Moderno de Madrid, which became part of the Museo del Prado in 1971. His son Ángel Ferrant was an outstanding sculptor of the Spanish avant-garde. As a decorator it is worth mentioning his ornamental work in the Linares Palace in Madrid and the Miramar Oratory in San Sebastian, among others. His best known work as a decorator was the church of San Francisco el Grande in Madrid, where he worked with Manuel Domínguez and Francisco Pradilla. He excelled in drawing, but also in different painting techniques such as watercolor, oil and fresco. He captured a sober and elegant coloring, which in the case of portraits is linked to the baroque tradition by the use of a varied artistic theme in history, genre, religious and landscapes, as well as in portraits and decorative painting. He presented works and obtained several medals in national and international exhibitions. Among his works are Sibyls and Prophets in the dome of San Francisco el Grande, Madrid, The Last Communion of San Fernando, The Burial of San Sebastian and Cisneros, founder of the hospital of Illescas, the latter painting with which he won the first medal at the National Exhibition of 1892.
