ERNI UPTON,FAVOURITE VIEW, MULL FROM NORTH IONAoil on canvas, signed, further signed and titled versoimage size 51cm x 101cm, overall size 72cm x 122cmFramed. Artist's label verso.Note: A Scot, born in Ayrshire in 1936, Erni Upton has been painting since childhood. Schooled at Ayr Grammar & Ayr Academy, much of his youth was spent with the fisherfolk of West Scotland and their boats and he still cruises these waters each year. He trained at Glasgow School of Art, where he studied under Donaldson, Mathieson and Robertson. His work reflects their influences and those of the Scottish colourists who like him, spent much time in the wonderful light and colours of the West Coast. Painting in this tradition, he works with oils on canvas, using both brush and knife. In 1985, after many years in banking, he returned to Art & Design when he established an interior design company in Shrewsbury, Shropshire. He continued to work in oils, mainly commissions for corporate and private clients, but it was not until 1999, when the company was sold, that more time became available for painting. His work is successfully shown in many galleries in England, Scotland and abroad, most recently in Istanbul, where he was invited, as a result of commission work, to have a solo exhibition at the British Embassy, and a subsequent solo at one of the premier galleries in the city. He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society for Arts, London, in November 2004. In recent years exhibition venues have included: Rowles Fine Arts, Strathearn Gallery, Greens & Blues Gallery, Morningside Gallery, Annan Gallery, Iona House Gallery, Alpha Gallery, Queens Gallery, Gigha Gallery, Holyrood Gallery and Frames Gallery. In The Scottish Contemporary Art Auction of 9th May 2021, two Iona paintings by Erni Upton (lots 787 & 789) sold for prices of £2000 & £2800 (hammer).

* CONSTANTIN KLUGE (RUSSIAN/FRENCH 1912 - 2003),FLOWER SELLERS, NOTRE DAMEoil on canvas, signedimage size 45cm x 60cm, overall size 63cm x 79cm Framed.Note: Constantin Kluge was a Russian-born French painter best known for his naturalistic scenes of Paris and the French countryside in a style reminiscent of Albert Marquet. Kluge was born to a wealthy military family on January 29, 1912, in Riga, Latvia, which was then a large, industrial Russian port city. He spent much of his childhood and young adult life between Manchuria, Beijing, and Hong Kong, where he discovered a love for brush and ink painting. Kluge studied architecture at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris and earned his diploma in 1937. Upon graduating, he painted the city’s riverbanks and streets before returning to Shanghai. With the rise of Communism in China, the artist fled to Paris in 1950 and began exhibiting in French Salons. He was a success both artistically and financially. Of his many awards, he received the Gold Medal, Salon des Artistes Francais and was made Chevalier de la Legion d’Honneur by the French Government. He died on January 9, 2003, in Paris, France. Kluge’s works are in the collections of the Musée d’Orsay and the Musée d’Art Moderne in Paris, among many others. In The Scottish Contemporary Art Auction of 26th May 2019 "Notre Dame, Paris" (lot 547) by Kluge sold for £4200 (hammer).

Working exclusively in acrylics, Mary Batchelor, produced paintings with vibrant and compelling colours. Mary was constantly inspired by the Scottish landscape. She loved bringing the ever changing Scottish countryside to life in her paintings. Mary also found great inspiration from travel abroad, enjoying the challenge of capturing unfamiliar scenes and different light. Mary Batchelor paintings are influenced by the strong tradition of Scottish colourists. She credited Scottish Colourists - Cadell, Peploe, Fergusson and Hunter as a source of great inspiration in her paintings. She admired the bold use of colour and texture, and the confidence exuded in every brush stroke which has contributed so richly to the tradition of Scottish painting.

David Burliuk (1882 Semirotowschtschina bei Charkow - 1967 New York)'Sturm im Frühling', Öl auf Leinwand, 94,5 cm x 69 cm, um 1910/1911, craqueliert, Farbabplatzer, Leinwand scheint partiell durch, partiell mit kleinen Löchern, partiell restauriert, Kopie der Echtsheitsbestätigung vom Sohn des Künstlers anbeiProvenienz: Privatsammlung HannoverAusstellungen: "Der Blaue Reiter und sein Kreis", 18. März 1977 - Mai 1977, Leonard Hutton Galleries, New York (verso Ausstellungsetikett)Literatur: Ausst.-Kat. "Der Blaue Reiter und sein Kreis", Leonhard Hutton Galleries, New York, 1977, Kat.-Nr. 4 (mit Farbabb.).Burliuk wurde am 21. Juli 1882 in Russland geboren und gehört zu den maßgeblichen Künstlern der russischen Avantgarde. Nach dem Studium von 1898 bis 1902 an den Kunsthochschulen in Kazan und Odessa ging er 1902 an die Münchner Kunstakademie. Anfangs der futuristischen Bewegung bzw. dem Cubo-Futurismus, wie es in Russland heißt, verbunden, stieß er in München zu den Künstlern des Blauen Reiters, für deren berühmten Almanach von 1912 er einen Beitrag über "Die Wilden Russlands" verfasste. 1907 kehrte er nach Russland zurück und beteiligte sich an zahlreichen Ausstellungen. Von Anfang an gehörte die Landschaftsmalerei in sein künstlerisches Repertoire. 1922 ließ er sich dauerhaft in den USA nieder. Obwohl seine Bilder auch weiterhin in der Sowjetunion ausgestellt wurden, erlaubte ihm die Regierung erst 1956 wieder eine Einreise in sein Heimatland. Das frühe expressionistische Landschaftsbild zeugt von der engen Verbindung David Burliuks zur Kunst des Blauen Reiters. Es entstand nach einer Bestätigung seines Sohns Nicholas Burliuk aus der Zeit um 1910/11, also kurz nach der Rückkehr des Künstlers aus München nach Russland, und zeigt einen Waldweg aus der Umgebung von Moskau. Hauptmerkmal ist eine auf Farbkontrasten basierende Bildfindung, wie sie zeitgleich in München etwa von Marianne von Werefkin und Alexej Jawlensky praktiziert wurde. Vom empfangenen Natureindruck ausgehend, ist das Bild aus Farbsetzungen in Rot, Gelb und Grün aufgebaut, die mit dem Pinsel und anderen Gerätschaften kraftvoll aufgetragen sind und in ihrer Materialität und als Farbkontraste Wirkung entfalten, hinter der der Abbildcharakter zurücktritt. David Burliuk (1882 Semyrotivka near Kharkiv - 1967 New York)Storm in Spring, oil on canvas, 94.5 cm x 69 cm, with a copy of a confirmation of authenticity by the artist's son stating that the work was painted in Moscow in 1910/11, with craquelure, losses of pigment, small holes in the canvas, partially restoredProvenance: Private collection, HanoverExhibitions: ''Der Blaue Reiter und sein Kreis'', 18th March 1977 - May 1977, Leonard Hutton Galleries, New York (with exhibition label on the reverse)Literature: Exhib. cat. "Der Blaue Reiter und sein Kreis", Leonhard Hutton Galleries, New York, 1977, cat. no. 4 (with colour illus.).Burliuk was born in Russia on 21st July 1882, and was one of the defining artists of the Russian avant garde. After studying from 1898 to 1902 at the art academies in Kazan and Odessa, he went to the Munich Art Academy in 1902. Initially associated with the Futurist movement, or Cubo-Futurism as it was known in Russia, he joined the artists of the Blaue Reiter in Munich, for whose famous 1912 almanac he wrote an article on ''The Wilds of Russia.'' In 1907 he returned to his homeland and participated in numerous exhibitions. Landscape painting was part of his repertoire from the beginning. In 1922 he settled permanently in the USA. Although his paintings continued to be exhibited in the Soviet Union, the government did not allow him to re-enter Russia until 1956. This early Expressionist landscape painting attests to David Burliuk's close association with the art of the Blaue Reiter. According to a confirmation of authenticity by his son Nicholas Burliuk, it was created in around 1910/11, shortly after the artist's return to Russia from Munich, and shows a forest path in the surroundings of Moscow. Its main feature is a pictorial invention based on color contrasts, as practised at the same time in Munich by Marianne von Werefkin and Alexej Jawlensky, for example. Based upon the initial impression provided by nature, the picture is built up from colour compositions in red, yellow and green, lavishly applied with a brush and other tools to develop both a structural effect and colour contrasts, behind which the character of the image recedes.
