Coat of arms of Catalonia, XVI century. In marble. Signed "M.Salas" on the side. Measures: 32 x 23 x 14 cm. Shield of Catalonia represented in relief in a block of marble. On the four bars, a scalloped vegetal line stands out. It is signed "M. Salas". It could come from the facade of a Catalan town hall. It is from the Renaissance period. Given that the configuration of Catalonia does not occur in its current form until the 15th century, a single heraldic symbol was not developed for the entire Catalan territory. In this territory, unlike others of the Crown of Aragon, the Catalan counties and their holders maintained a high degree of political presence, and whose heraldry has endured in the areas in which they extended, as in the case of the arms of the County of Urgel or Ampurias. The heraldry of the Crown granted the permissions so that some cities could bear in some field the four clubs of gules as well as institutions of the crown. This is the case of the Generality of Catalonia, which adopted the coat of arms of the monarch practically from the beginning. However, the cross of Saint George (in silver field, a cross of gules) also began to be used, as the Generality was gaining political weight, since this saint is highly venerated and patron saint of Aragon (and also of Catalonia). This symbol was initially used by the city of Barcelona in its coat of arms as a symbol of the city (which also combined with the arms of the king), and by extension would symbolize the County of Barcelona. Often the representation of the Catalan Generality was made by means of two separate coats of arms, one the royal and the other that of St. George (perhaps consistent with the pacitist doctrine of this governing body), as well as, later, combining them by means of cross quartering. Since this representation coincided with that of its capital city and main county, during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries territorialized symbols appeared that represented this coat of arms as a symbol of Catalonia as a whole. Other arguments justify this coincidence with the attribution of this sign of the city of Barcelona in some maps and portolanos later reproduced without contrasting.

Marc Chagall (1887-1985)Printemps au Pré, from Daphnis et Chloé (Mourlot 314; Cramer Books 46) Lithograph in colours, 1961, on Arches wove paper, signed and numbered 12/60 in pencil, printed by Mourlot, published by Tériade, Paris, the full sheet with a deckle edge at right and below, with minor light-staining, the colours still strong and vibrant, in good conditionImage 420 x 640mm. (16 1/2 by 25 1/4in.); Sheet 538 x 756mm. (21 1/4 x 29 3/4in.)Footnotes:Marc Chagall is recognised as one of the leading lithographers of the 20th century. The following collection highlights the artist's fascination with printmaking in Paris from the 1950s to the 1980s and his close collaboration with master printmaker Charles Sorlier and the Mourlot Studios.It was a fascination that mainly came about later in Chagall's career when he had reached the grand aged of 63. After returning to France in 1947, having escaped Nazi-occupied France for the United States six years earlier, he took up printmaking with the aid of both Atelier Mourlot director, Fernand Mourlot, and expert printmaker, Charles Sorlier. Sorlier would become Chagall's most important creative collaborator, assisting him in the Mourlot atelier. Together they would come to create an exceptional body of lithographic work, illustrating Chagall's most recognised and favourite subjects from matrimony, birds, animals and flowers to biblical scenes and the circus. Within this important private collection, assembled over two decades from Northern Germany, is offered a selection of prints from Chagall's first major colour portfolio, Daphnis et Chloé (Lot 33-42). The 42 lithographs that make up the vibrant book are based on the Greek poet, Longus' retelling of Daphnis and Chloé love story. Commissioned by one of the most important art publishers of the 20th Century, Tériade believe Chagall would be perfect at capturing a tale of love over adversity and he was not wrong. After a trip abroad and inspired by the light and landscape of the Greek islands he visited, Chagall returned to Paris with a series of preparatory studies to produce the portfolio with Sorlier. It has since come to be regarded as one of the most important and beautifully illustrated books of the last century – and a highlight of Chagall's storied career. As Chagall and Sorlier's relationship strengthened, Sorlier would evaluate the quality of the lithographs and numbering of the proofs, destroying any excess, after which Chagall would hand sign them. Devoted to the process and insistent upon rigorous standards, Chagall would work and rework the plates and colours until he was completely happy, standing with Sorlier at every step of the process. Sorlier once wrote 'the great integrity he invests in his work...requires that the plate bear my name each time he has not directly participated in the transcription to stone'. For this reason, most of the afterworks are signed by Marc Chagall and in the stone by Charles Sorlier. These so-called afterworks are currently some of the most valuable and sought after works of Chagall's entire artistic oeuvre (Lot 53-54). Such collaborations exemplify the close and harmonious bond between the artist and the master printer.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: * AR* VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.AR Goods subject to Artists Resale Right Additional Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
