* ANGELA LEMAIRE (BRITISH CONTEMPORARY) TWO ACTORS BEFORE WINDOW linocut print, signed, titled, dated '77 and numbered 1/5 in pencil 31cm x 23cm Mounted, framed and under glass. Note: Angela Lemaire was born in Buckinghamshire and went to the Lyçée Français de Londres and Wispers School in Sussex, then to PLC Pymble in Sydney Australia. She returned to Britain in 1962 and went to Chelsea School of Art, London (1963) and Camberwell School of Arts and Crafts (1964-67, Dip. AD.), where she was taught relief printmaking by Michael Rothenstein. After this she went to Morley College, Lambeth, where she continued etching. The wood-engraver Frank Martin, who taught at Camberwell, gave her a box of wood-engraving tools which had belonged to a colleague of his who had died. With these tools she taught herself wood-engraving; it hadn’t been taught at art-school. She was by then already friends with the wood-engraver and letterer Michael Renton and had watched him at work. She decided she would work principally as a printmaker and with text and image. Angela lives and works in the Scottish Borders and has exhibited widely including numerous solo shows at prestigious galleries around the UK and beyond.

Samuel John Murphy (1851-c.1920) The Fruit Seller Oil on canvas laid on panel, 35.5 x 30.5cm (14 x 12) Signed and dated 'S. J Murphy. 1882', lower-left Exhibited: Cork, Cork Industrial Exhibition, 1883, Gallery of Modern Paintings, no. 24, £12 12. Provenance: Mucklow's Gallery, 35, Cranbourn St., Covent Garden, circa 1930s, label, verso. Samuel John Murphy was born in county Cork in 1851. He was a pupil of the Cork School of Art and a contemporary of Joseph Poole Addey (1852-1922) and Henry Jones Thaddeus (1859-1929). Murphy became Head of the Waterford School of Art in 1875 and married Emily Jane Falls in 1878. Later, Murphy became involved in the lace-making industry. Accompanied by fellow Cork artist, James Brenan (1837-1907), then head of the Cork School of Art, Murphy travelled to Alençon, France, whose needle-lace was dubbed 'the Queen of lace.'[1] Here, to study the techniques of the Alençon workers, both men met with Ernest Lefébure (d.1913), a lace manufacturer who would later become the Administrator of the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, Paris. He continued to paint and exhibit during this time, however, and was a painter of scenes of equestrian, genre, and marine interest, as well as portraits. His latest known work is dated 1890. The 1911 Census confirms Murphy resided at 7, Newtown Rd., Waterford City. He remained an Art Master, but had become a widower. An equestrian scene by Murphy forms part of the collection of the Crawford Art Gallery, Cork City (CAG.489). 1] P. Wardle, Victorian Lace (London: Barrie & Jenkins, 1968)

Colin Middleton RHA RUA MBE (1910-1983) Birth of David Oil on canvas, 50.5 x 61cm (19¾ x 24'') Signed; dated verso 4 July 1944 Exhibited: 'An Exhibition of Recent Works by Colin Middleton', CEMA Northern Ireland, 1945-46, catalogue number 6; Associated American Artists, New York, 1947, label verso. Literature: James White, 'Irish Painters of Today', The Studio, March 1950, illustrated. Birth of David was painted in the summer of 1944 during a successful and fertile period for Colin Middleton. In 1943 he had held an ambitious and generally well-received solo exhibition at the Belfast Museum and Art Gallery and in 1945 his first exhibition in Dublin took place several months before another one man show in Belfast, with the Council for the Encouragement of Music and the Arts, in which the present painting was included. The 1945 Belfast exhibition largely maintained the uplifting tone of personal and philosophical integration with which the 1943 exhibition concluded. With its fine draughtsmanship and extensive use of symbolism Birth of David might seem to continue Middleton's earlier surrealism, but its intense mysticism and the interest in the Old Testament demonstrated in the subject matter, also look forward to the period from 1948 when he worked with Victor Waddington. Its symbolism appears more esoteric and less related to Middleton's own life and artistic identity than many works in the 1943 exhibition and, alongside the references to the life of King David, it is tempting to wonder whether the Star of David was also intended as a reference to the experience of the Jews in Europe in the pre-war and wartime years. It is possible that Birth of David was included in an exhibition of contemporary Irish painting held in New York in 1947 at the Associated American Artists gallery, although this was before Middleton began exhibiting with Victor Waddington, who seems to have been connected with the exhibition. Waddington's interest in the painting is demonstrated by its use as an illustration in James White's 1950 article on contemporary Irish art in The Studio magazine. While Middleton questioned Waddington over his decision to provide White with this image, as well as criticising White's description of him as a surrealist, he remained committed to the painting. 'I do not in any way repudiate that canvas. It was a very important one in its period for in it, as in others of that time, I was endeavouring to come to terms with the pathological nature of mysticism.'

2017, mixed media, with the original receipt of purchase from the Walled Off Hotel in Palestine, digital print and concrete relief.25.5cm x 25.5cm (10in x 10in) including frameFootnote: * The relief element is an original piece of the separation wall that divides Israel and Palestine, which is sprayed with graffiti. The Walled Off Hotel is an independent leisure facility set up by Banksy. It overlooks the separation wall. Biography: Banksy is a contemporary British street artist, activist, and film director who has maintained an anonymity, despite his international fame. Although details of the artist’s life are largely unknown, it is thought that Banksy was born in Bristol, c. 1974, and began his career as a graffiti artist in the city in the 1990s. His work traditionally acts a form of cultural criticism; a political and social commentary through satirical street art and stencilled works. His work, which mysteriously appears on location, combines graffiti and epigrams and has been featured publicly on streets, walls, and bridges of major cities throughout the world. Although Banksy no longer sells photographs or reproductions of his street graffiti, his public installation pieces are regularly offered for sale, even if it means removing the wall they were painted on. A small number of Banksy's works are also officially, non-publicly, sold through Pest Control, a handling service acting on behalf of Banksy. Banksy's documentary film Exit Through the Gift Shop (2010) debuted at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival and he was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Documentary the following year. Banksy continues to create work worldwide, winning awards and notoriety. He was awarded Person of the Year at the 2014 Webby Awards and, in 2015, opened Dismaland Bemusement Park, a temporary art exhibition that functioned as a theme park and included collaborations with fellow artists. One of the artist's most famous stunts was his shredded painting in 2018. As a painting by Banksy was sold at auction for $1.4 million, a mechanism was triggered that caused the artwork to partially shred, resulting in a new piece titled Love in the Bin (2018).* This lot was originally bought by a private collector who acquired from the Walled Off Hotel in Palestine.Artists’ Resale Right (“droit de suite”) may apply to this lot.Condition report: The artwork is in very good, original condition with no obvious faults to report. The artwork is framed and glazed.

* ANGELA LEMAIRE (BRITISH CONTEMPORARY) TWO ACTORS BEFORE WINDOW linocut print, signed, titled, dated '77 and numbered 1/5 in pencil 31cm x 23cm Mounted, framed and under glass. Note: Angela Lemaire was born in Buckinghamshire and went to the Lyçée Français de Londres and Wispers School in Sussex, then to PLC Pymble in Sydney Australia. She returned to Britain in 1962 and went to Chelsea School of Art, London (1963) and Camberwell School of Arts and Crafts (1964-67, Dip. AD.), where she was taught relief printmaking by Michael Rothenstein. After this she went to Morley College, Lambeth, where she continued etching. The wood-engraver Frank Martin, who taught at Camberwell, gave her a box of wood-engraving tools which had belonged to a colleague of his who had died. With these tools she taught herself wood-engraving; it hadn’t been taught at art-school. She was by then already friends with the wood-engraver and letterer Michael Renton and had watched him at work. She decided she would work principally as a printmaker and with text and image. Angela lives and works in the Scottish Borders and has exhibited widely including numerous solo shows at prestigious galleries around the UK and beyond.
