PHILIP HEARSEY (BRITISH, B.1946) 'WATERLINES' CONSOLE TABLE; 2007 Ash top, bronze and resin centre, steel legs Artist's monogram in bronze inlayed into back edge 83.5cm high, 87.5cm wide, 40.5cm deep Philip Hearsey makes exceptional and unusual furniture. The work is crafted from reclaimed trees that have died, fallen or been pushed by the wind around his home on the Welsh borders of Herefordshire. He never kills a tree, but rather creates a new life for an otherwise dead one. Forged metal is combined with the wood to give an everlasting quality to the functional object and strength to the form. It is invariably the wood that determines the work. Holding and touching the raw materials and working each piece into being creates an individual character and strong presence, resulting in work that bears evidence of the maker's hand and in sharp contrast to the smooth look characteristic of mass-produced or highly finished furniture. The work is essentially contemporary but uses old materials and traditional skills in a way that brings a modern dimension to ancient crafts.

Around 1955 Tofanari gave Aldo Marinelli, owner of the Marinalli Foundry in Florence, a number of plaster models to cast into bronze. This particular gazelle was amongst them. The agreement was that Tofanari would detail the waxes and oversee the patination. Tofanari died in 1969 but the foundry still cast with the family permission until 1976 when the foundry was sold and the name of the foundry changed. This cast is before 1976, it is signed on the tail as opposed to the raised leg of the later casts, it also has a quality and finish with fine detail. The modern casts of this subject are marked clearly as posthumous after legal action by the heirs.

BERNHARD HOETGER (1874-1949) 'MÄDCHEN MIT REIF', CIRCA 1901 bronze, signed in the bronze with artist's monogram 19cm high Provenance: Jessie Marion King and Ernest Archibald TaylorBy descent to their daughter Merle TaylorEstate of Merle Taylor After studying at the Düsseldorf Art Academy under Karl Janssen, Bernhard Hoetger travelled to Paris and settled there from 1900 to 1907. He became acquainted with artists such as Paula Modersohn-Becker, Käthe Kollwitz, Karl Hofer and Henri Rousseau. He was most interested by Rodin's work, which strongly influenced his visual language in this early phase. As early as 1901, Hoetger achieved his artistic breakthrough with the sculpture “L'Aveugle (The Blind Man)”. This led to the first contact with Julius Meier-Graefe, director of the Art Nouveau gallery "La Maison Moderne", who included Hoetger's sculptures in the gallery's sales catalogue alongside works by George Minne, Charpentier and others. His time in Paris, during which the present example was also created, ended in 1909 with Hoetger's appointment as a professor at the Darmstadt artists' colony.
