J. Craig Thorpe (American, B. 1948) "Indiana Locomotive" Signed lower left. Original Oil painting on Paper. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting is the original which appeared on the Fleetwood Legendary Locomotives of the 50 States Indiana Commemorative Cover postmarked March 31, 1995. "My first dream as a Hoosier boy was to ride away on the Monon toward the Heaven-piercing spires of Lafayette or Michigan City." Indiana humorist George Ade penned comments such as these to accompany the delightful cartoons of John T. McCutcheon that appeared on the elaborate menus used on the Chicago, Indianapolis & Louisville (CI&L or Monon) route. Its trains served Indiana as well as Kentucky and Illinois, yet its 618 miles of trackage were located entirely within the Hoosier State. Incorporated as the CI&L on March 31, 1897, "Indiana's own railroad" was a conglomeration of several lines. In 1911, the CI&L introduced the Hoosier Limited, which ran between Indianapolis and Chicago. The following year the Red Devil -- an all-sleeping-car train -- was created to carry passengers between the Windy City and the Indiana resort town of French Lick. Other special trains carried riders to the Kentucky Derby and the Indianapolis 500 Speedway races. Although ridership on the Monon remained strong for many decades, the predominance of the automobile and the advent of the interstate highway ultimately led to the demise of its passenger service in 1967. Shown here is CI&L's engine No. 301, pictured at Gosport, Indiana's unusual 1850-vintage station with its portal door for indoor freight-car unloading. This 4-4-2 type engine was built by the American Locomotive Company. Image Size: 14 x 12 in. Overall Size: 18 x 15 in. Unframed. (B14999)

ALEKSANDR DEINEKA (RUSSIAN 1899-1969)Woman with Stroller, Italy, circa 1935oil on canvas board65 x 49 cm (25 5/8 x 19 1/4 in.)signed lower rightPROVENANCEAcquired in the 1960s by the family of the present ownerProperty of an Italian CountessLOT NOTESBy the 1930s Aleksandr Deineka is hailed as a foremost Soviet modernist both at home and abroad, and 1934-35 proved especially fruitful years for international exposure. In 1934, Deineka represents the USSR at the 19th Venice Biennale (where his painting is purchased by the Italian Ministry of Education); features in group exhibitions of Soviet graphic art (Copenhagen) and posters (first in London, then across Italy and France); and the 33rd Carnegie International exhibition at the Carnegie Institute in Pittsburgh, where he is awarded Honorable Mention.In the fall of 1934, Deineka is invited to showcase his works and serve on the jury panel for an upcoming exhibition of Soviet art in Philadelphia, organized by VOKS (All-Union Society for Cultural Relations with Foreign Countries), the Pennsylvania Museum of Art and the American-Russian Institute of Philadelphia. Moreover, VOKS chose Deineka to personally represent the USSR at the exhibition. (A rare opportunity indeed: with the assassination of Sergei Kirov on December 1, which heralded the beginning of the “Great Purge”, fewer and fewer Soviet citizens were allowed abroad. Deineka’s own foreign passport was signed by Genrikh Yagoda, who would be demoted from the NKVD in 1936 and executed two years later). The Art of Soviet Russia ran at the Philadelphia Museum of Art from December 15, 1934 - January 21, 1935 and travelled extensively through 1936 to some two dozen venues across the U.S. and Canada. Aside from Deineka, the show featured works by contemporaries Kuzma Petrov-Vodkin, Aleksandr Shevchenko, Yuri Pimenov and Martiros Saryan.Following his trip to the U.S., Deineka journeys to Europe: first Cherbourg and Paris, then Rome, which he immediately falls in love with. In a letter addressed to his wife Serafima Lycheva, dated April 24, 1935, he writes: Ah, [Serafima], what a city - Roma! Go in any direction and you’ll find dozens of delightful things —some little fountain, street, square. Everywhere, a variety of old marble, various gods, wonderful architecture. The painter’s fascination with classical forms is at the heart of this work, striking a delicate balance between the clean lines of the façade, also echoed by the shape of the manhole and the shadow cast by the baby carriage, and the modelled sculptural bas-relief above the door frame. (A similar building is seen in his 1935 Rome. Alleyway, held at the Kursk State Picture Gallery; click here to view online.) The dusky color palette of brick red, terracotta orange, pale yellow, cream and grey completes the sense of austere and bold beauty.CONDITION Observed in frame, the painting appears in good condition.
