Rare Coin-Operated Musical Monkey Photographer Automaton by Phalibois Paris, c. 1880, depicting an anthropomorphic photographer with Daguerreotype camera on tripod taking the portrait of his female subject who is seated, with mirror and fan, against a backdrop of holly leaves, potted plants and a whippet, both figures with papier-mâché heads, carved hands and articulated eyes and mouths, on ebonised base with coin box and drawer on the front, going-barrel movement driving fourteen wood cams and replacement pull-string two-air cylinder movement of appropriate type and date, dressed in elaborate mainly original costumes trimmed with brass stars and Dresden paper, under glass dome, height 26 in. (66 cm) x width 23 in. (58 cm), with keys for the movement and the drawer, and placard with text "Figures Work by Dropping a Penny in the Box". The automaton and musical movements have been overhauled and are in excellent working condition. The monkey with a magic lantern was a familiar figure in French popular culture and appeared many times in printed illustrations during the first half of the 19th century. The image came from a fable by Jean-Pierre Claris de Florian which tells the story of a showman`s monkey, Jacqueau, who entertains an audience of farmyard animals with a magic lantern performance while his master is away. Here the idea is carried one stage further. There are fourteen separate movements. The photographer lowers his head as though framing his subject as a brass plate at the back of the camera rises and the lady fans herself, shakes her head and raises the mirror. The photographer then gestures to his subject with two movements of his right hand, the lady pauses in her actions and looks into the lens, the plate falls, the photographer raises his head, looks about and then reveals the "exposed" plate (a miniature watercolor portrait) to his subject, who nods in approval. Both figures blink and move their mouths meanwhile. The coin activation, box and drawer were almost certainly added in England during the first few years of the automaton`s life, possibly by the London wholesaler Silber & Fleming who illustrated Phalibois automata in their catalogues during the 1880s and advertised that for a cost of 20 shillings "mechanical novelties could be made up so that they performed with a penny in the slot action". - Literature: Mary Hillier, "Automata & Mechanical Toys", pp. 114-117. - A complex coin-operated automaton and humorous piece of early photographic memorabilia.Please Watch & Listen on: Youtube.com/AuctionTeamBreker Das Affen-Photostudio - seltener Münz-Musik-Puppenautomat von "Phalibois", Paris, um 1880 Mit Darstellung eines anthropomorphen Affen als Photograph mit Daguerreotypie-Kamera, der sein weibliches Pendant ablichtet. Beide Figuren mit Köpfen aus Papiermaché, geschnitzten Händen und beweglichen Augen und Mäulern. Die Affendame sitzt mit Fächer und Spiegel in den Händen vor einem Hintergrund aus Stechapfelblättern, umgeben von zwei Topfpflanzen und einem kleinen Windhund. Auf schwarz lackiertem Sockel mit Münzeinwurf und Schublade an der Vorderseite. Federwerk für die Mechanik mit 14 Nockenscheiben und Walzenspielwerk für 2 Melodien (Fadenaufzug) in Sockel (passendes Spielwerk ergänzt). Die Puppen sind mit feinen, mit Messingsternen verzierten Kostümen bekleidet (zum größten Teil original). Mit Glasdom, Gesamtmaße 66 x 64 cm. Der Affe mit einer Laterna Magica war eine populäre Figur während der 1. Hälfte des 19. Jh. in Frankreich und wurde oft als Illustration verwendet. Sie geht auf eine Fabel von Jean-Pierre Claris de Florian zurück. Mit diesem Automaten wird diese Idee fortgeführt. Insgesamt 14 einzelne Bewegungen werden ausgeführt. Der Photograph senkt seinen Kopf, mustert sein Motiv und schiebt eine unbelichtete Platte in die Kamera. Währenddessen fächelt sich die Affendame Luft zu, schüttelt ihren Kopf und hebt den Spiegel. Der Photograph macht 2 Handzeichen, um die Dame zur Ruhe zu bringen, was auch gelingt. Die Affendame schaut ruhig in die Kamera, die Platte verschwindet, der Photograph hebt seinen Kopf, schaut herum und holt das belichtete Photo aus der Kamera, zeigt es ihr und erhält ein anerkennendes Nicken. Beide Figuren zwinkern mit den Augen und bewegen ihre Mäuler. Der Münzeinwurf wurde vermutlich vom Händler "Silber & Flemming", London, Ende des 19. Jh. ergänzt. In seinen Verkaufskatalogen der 1880er Jahre sind Phalibois-Automaten abgebildet und mit der Werbung versehen: "Automaten können für 20 Schillinge mit einem Münzeinwurf ausgerüstet werden." - Literatur: Mary Hillier, "Automata & Mechanical Toys", S. 114-117. - Mit Aufzugschlüssel und Schlüssel für die Kassenschublade.

Leonid Borisov, Russian b.1943- Untitled geometric abstract composition; oil on canvas, signed and dated 1986 to verso, 60x65cm Note: Leonid Borisov was initially recognised as a Soviet Nonconformist Artist, he concentrated on geometric abstraction which was closer in style to the nonconformist art in Moscow than his home town of Leningrad. In 1978 the Ministry of Culture granted him a solo show at the Krupskaia House of Culture which was a feat of success in itself as unofficial shows were banned in Leningrad after 1976 particularly. More recently he contributed work in 1991 to the exhibition `Modern Artists-Homage to Malevich`, the State Tretiakov Gallery have two of his paintings in their collection and his work is also in the collections of the Penza State Art Gallery, the Dresden State Art Gallery and the State Russian Museum. Borisov continues to work in a geometric abstract style and lives in St. Petersburg.
