American School (late 18th century)Two figures by a card tablepen, ink and watercolour 15.5 x 22cm (6 x 8½ in.)Probably New England, circa 1790.Provenance:Joan Brownstein, MassachusettsPurchased from the above by the present owner in 2014An 18th Century card table, the top half-open to reveal a red baize playing surface is flanked by two bust-length portraits of a man and a woman. This intriguing picture was most probably created in New England in the late 18th Century. The Pinkers Collection of British, American and European Folk Art This charming collection of folk art takes its name from a diminutive 17th Century cottage on the Kent coast where it has hung and grown in size over the last twenty years. It includes watercolours and oil paintings from the 17th to the early 20th Century. Many are in their original frames and in remarkably fresh condition. Despite its rural location and the provincial subject matter of the works it is a truly international collection and many of the lots have come from some of the most important collectors and dealers in folk art on both sides of the Atlantic including Robert Young, Denzil Grant and Charles Plante in England and David Wheatcroft, Joan Brownstein and Austin Miller in America.Folk Art has been described as 'the unselfconscious creativity of academically untrained artists' (Robert Young, Folk Art, 1999) and it is this quality that gives many of the works an immediacy and playfulness that has chimed with generations of collectors. Some of the pictures, by journeymen artists, artisans or amateurs are provincial reinterpretations of more sophisticated works, such as the early 18th Century Yate family portraits (lot 122). Others have a joyful disregard of accepted ideas of scale, perspective and colouring, giving them a timeless quality which draws parallels with 20th Century artists including Alfred Wallis and John Nash, such as View from La Moinerie (lot 120) and the American School Portrait of a girl (lot 103) has an Outsider Art quality reminiscent of the Art Brut movement founded by Jean Dubuffet. Regardless of their origins this unique and varied collection is the manifestation of the vision and passion of a true collector.Condition Report: The sheet has been wrapped around a piece of card and the whole thing laid down on a card mount.

HERMÈS Eperon. HERMÈS Eperon. France. Ca. 1952. Pig's leather with sailcloth H, 22,5 x 19,0 x 10,0 cm. The Sac EPERON from Hermès is certainly a highlight of the pre-Christmas auction in our house. This model was first designed in black crocodile leather in 1940 for Rita Hayworth by Robert Dumas. Rita Hayworth, Hollywood goddess of the time, was so popular that her face adorned even the bombers of the American army. The international customers of the Hermès company were later able to have a model made individually in various colors and materials. Each bag was a unique piece of craftsmanship from the studios on Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré. The bag offered today was individually ordered by the then customer for his wife in natural pigskin leather in a combination with Toile H, an iconic fabric of the house, and delivered to her before Christmas 1952 with her initials embossed on it. Even the order card still exists and impressively documents the provenance. This piece is a special example of how the classic and valuable workmanship is still just as desirable and highly topical after 68 years. The Toile H combined with Barenia leather is today one of the favorite combinations of true Hermès connoisseurs. Now the wonderfully preserved piece is back on the Christmas table after 68 years. Original packaging enclosed. Condition as good as new.
