Fragments of a Zeppelin metal, boxed, shot down in 1916In the First World War Britain suddenly became vulnerable to aerial attack. Alf Wilkinson records a memorable turning-point in the battle against the Zeppelin menace.On the night of the 2-3 September 1916 Lieutenant William Leefe Robinson became the first pilot to shoot down a Zeppelin raider over Britain. He was immediately acclaimed as a hero and awarded the Victoria Cross. He was feted wherever he went, and received a bounty of £4,200 – an absolute fortune at the time. What was so special about Lieutenant Robinson’s action, and did he deserve a VC?We are used to talking about the Blitz during the Second World War but in 1914 nothing like aerial bombing had taken place before. It was only a few years since Bleiriot had managed to cross the Channel, and the old idea of Britain as an ‘island fortress’ was still strongly held. And yet, soon after the start of the war, the German Navy had bombardedeast-coast ports – especially Hartlepool – inflicting casualties. Count von Zeppelin had been developing airships since 1900 and both the German Navy and Air Force had ordered some, seeing them primarily as airborne reconnaissance, although one did bomb Brussels in August 1914. The Kaiser was very reluctant to order bombing of Britain, feeling that the reaction of neutral countries would have an impact on Germany

Statement about AOAP Submitted Artwork The painting shows and is named after the 'House of Reeves', an independent furniture store in Croydon south London, run by the same family for over 150 years London. On 8th of August 2011, during the London riots, the store was burnt down. In this painting I used a found photograph showing the store on fire, but replacing the arsonists and rioters with flying saucers, and AT-St Walkers/Tie-Fighters from Star Wars. This work is coupled with another image I did in 2020, made during the Black Lives Matter protests, in which the rioters are shown as they are, and the authorities replaced with Star Wars AT-AT walkers. These kinds of themes are generally very unusual in my work, but give me an outlet for looking at social issues and my interest in sci-fi - creating images that combine cinema, surrealism and social realism.

Erlund Hudson (Eleanor Hudson) 1911 -2012). A well worked charcoal on paper portrait of woman, probably a fellow canteen volunteer. Dated 1944 and signed twice. H.63 W.48cm Hudson was a watercolourist, etcher and designer and is notable for her depictions of women at work during the Second World War.

Though not an official war artist her drawings were purchased by the War Artists’ Advisory Committee with the help of Robert Austin. Her works can be found in collection of the Imperial War Museum and British Museum. Hudson has written the sitters name ‘Bella’ but her surname is illegible. Further research is needed. Provenance: from the collection of Trevor Frankland 1931 - 2011. Frankland was president of the Watercolor Society of which Hudson was a member. She has signed and inscribed the picture to him circa 1980.

OSCAR MURILLO (B. 1986)Untitled (Fried Chick) 2012 oil, oil stick, spray paint and dirt on canvas 248 by 181 cm.97 5/8 by 71 1/4 in.This work was executed in 2012.Footnotes:ProvenancePrivate Collection, LAPrivate Collection, UK (acquired directly from the above in 2013) Sale: Bonhams, London, Modern & Contemporary Art, 27 June 2019, Lot 33Acquired directly from the above by the present ownerCompelling, spirited and grand in scale, Untitled (Fried Chick) (2012) is foundational work by the Colombian-born, Turner Prize nominated artist Oscar Murillo; exhibiting all the hallmarks of his energetic and spontaneous style that combines raw panels of canvas, flashes of text and colour with aggregated dirt and impressions from the studio floor. Rising to artistic maturity and institutional acclaim in monumental fashion, his inclusion in such major exhibitions as The Forever Now: Contemporary Painting in an Atemporal World at the Museum of Modern Art, New York, in 2014, in addition to solo exhibitions at the Centro Cultural Daoíz y Velarde, Madrid and the Institute of Contemporary Arts, London, has cemented Murillo's international standing as one of the foremost contemporary painters currently working; culminating in his nomination for the Turner Prize in 2019 for his exhibition Violent Amnesia at Kettle's Yard, Cambridge. Untitled (Fried Chick) is an elegant example of Murillo's collaging of surfaces and techniques that flaunts the dirt from the artist's studio floor, bringing the painting to life through its closeness to the 'authentic' detritus and rubble of Murillo's workspace. In the present work, the raw support of the canvas plays host to an almost performative mark-making, suffused with a palpable energy that channels the automatic motions of Jackson Pollock, complemented by a revisionist ideology that Murillo credits to the Neo-concretism of Lygia Clark, Lygia Pape and Hélio Oiticica. The present work comes to market following Murillo's nomination for the Turner Prize in 2019 – a significant recognition of the artist's distinguished practice and place amongst his contemporaries. An exemplary early work by Murillo, Untitled (Fried Chick) is an immense painting of masterful austerity, eliciting all of the methods and conceptual hooks that has made Murillo such an internationally lauded artist.Activating the more static, Modernist modes of abstract painting through installations, social gatherings and interactive artworks, Murillo's multifaceted practice has continued to express the artist's experiences of displacement and multiculturalism, demonstrated in the present work with a bravura charm and dynamic materiality. For Murillo, the process of painting provides a method of accumulation; composing his works through a build-up of material, of folds, marks and daubs of paint that illustrate the artist's own relationship to his itinerant lifestyle and 'layering' of identity. Born in La Paila in South East Colombia, Murillo remains deeply influenced by his roots and his arrival in London as an immigrant at the age of ten. The present work represents a superbly nuanced evocation of these themes, employing single words or phrases that encourage a reading of Murillo's paintings through the lens of cultural critique. Where words such as 'pollo,' 'yoga,' 'milk' and 'mango' appear across Murillo's oeuvre, they become aesthetic devices in tandem with their implicit meaning – impactful hand-sketched lines of text that divide the canvas in a similar vein to the paintings of Jean-Michel Basquiat. Murillo interprets his own unique style thusly: 'the words are very displaced. Like cultural displacement with performance, in painting it's material displacement, object displacement [...] I also like to think that these paintings also imply a displacement of time. They're like rugs. An unstretched painting is a kind of abstract thing, one that suggests that it perhaps has been found or comes from some other space or time. But while it has this aura of being a historical thing when placed out of context, it just comes from the studio' (the artist in conversation with Legacy Russell, 'Bomb Magazine', www.bombmagazine.org, 1 Jan 2013).This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: AR TP ▲AR Goods subject to Artists Resale Right Additional Premium.TP For auctions held in Scotland: Lots will be moved to an offsite storage location (Constantine, Constantine House, North Caldeen Road, Coatbridge ML5 4EF, Scotland, UK) and will only be available for collection from this location at the date stated in the catalogue.
