[§] JOHN DUNCAN FERGUSSON R.B.A. (SCOTTISH 1874-1961)SEATED NUDE Bronze15cm high (6in)Note:Although a later casting of an edition of 9 made from the plaster is known no other example of this lifetime cast has been recorded. John Duncan Fergusson is acclaimed as a pre-eminent member of the Scottish Colourists - a group of four artists that thrived with their shared interest and training in the French art scene. It is strange to think that a Scottish Colourist would choose a medium so restricted in colour, and he was the only of the four to work in three dimensions. Nonetheless, the period of 1918-22 saw the peak of his sculptural output, in which it can be assumed his Seated Nude mould was made. For Fergusson, sculpture presented new, provoking ways to manipulate and experiment with the human form, the physicality of his sculpture as exciting as the colour in his painted works. Lyon & Turnbull are delighted to be offering three sculptural works by the artist in this auction, all of which reveal Fergusson's fascination with the female form. The pose of Seated Nude is atypical, displaying the woman in a stance of meditation. Her legs are crossed, her arms are outstretched, and her head faces intently forwards. Standing Nude is a more typical pose for Fergusson, a strong and statuesque female figure stands with her arms clasped behind her, bringing one elbow to point up to the sky, the other drawing down by her side. While Head of Meg represents, in three-dimensions, the striking features of his long-term partner and muse, the dancer Margaret Morris.In many ways, the bronze figure of Seated Nude resembles icons of non-Western art - a field by which he was greatly influenced. Recall, perhaps, the ample imagery of sitting Buddha statues that can be found throughout the Asian continent. Cambodia and India, in particular, were of interest to Fergusson whose Celtic roots, he believed, were shared with these peoples. His time working in Paris, Edinburgh and London introduced him to museum collections of objects from foreign lands, and his highly intellectual approach to art certainly expanded his world view.Despite the noticeably continental influence on his work, there still remained this Celtic Spirit which he so passionately championed; his newfound interest in sculpture could be likened to the masonry carving of the Celts, his sculptures often suggestive of a certain primitivism in their figuration and handling. During the First World War, Fergusson spent time in Edinburgh directly carving in stone, following attempts in terracotta and clay throughout his stay in Antibes.Fergusson was producing sculpture alongside his modernist contemporaries working in Paris, such as Jacob Epstein and Constantin Brancusi who were all aligned in their similar choice of material and subject. Nonetheless, judged against concurrent work being produced in Britain, Fergusson's sculptural practice was highly unique in its investigation and rendering of the human form. The offered sculptures demonstrate an assured concoction of influences, cultures, and his intellectual outlook on art. They are one of a select group of pointedly under-appreciated, yet fundamental, sculptures from an artist whose work helped shape 20th Century Modernism.
[§] JOHN DUNCAN FERGUSSON R.B.A. (SCOTTISH 1874-1961)STANDING NUDE Numbered 8/9 (at the base), bronze24cm (9in) highNote: The bronze was conceived c.1914-1919. This work is from a later casting in 2013, which was cast in an edition of nine plus one artist's cast. It was cast at the Art Bronze foundry, with the assistance of the J.D.

A rare and important Bernard Leach stoneware vase engraved with sgraffito kinked lines separated by cut vertical lines with clay and ash glaze, circa 1966, pottery mark only but a very similar vase is illustrated in 'Bernard Leach, A Potter's Work', Jupiter Books reprint 1977 edition, colour plate 5, that example being 14 inches high where as the present is 11 inches high. Bernard Leach's caption reads "Tall Engraved Stoneware Jar. Height 14in. the running glaze on this piece is composed of equal parts of clay and hard-wood ash and was first discovered by the Chinese before the time of Christ. The shape, although unlike any medieval pot I have seen, is none the less is influenced by our noble English tradition. Made at St Ives, 1966"(See illustration) From the Bret Guthrie CollectionOriginally born in Barrow-in-Furness in 1916, to a Russian mother and English father, Bret Guthrie moved to Cornwall in 1926 when his father's work took the family to Falmouth, where he enjoyed his school years before the family moved again to East London. He later returned to Cornwall to await his army call-up for WWII. Whilst living in Nancledra, a cycling accident in St Ives threw him quite literally, at the feet of David Leach, son of the renowned potter. This led to a life-long friendship with both father and son, as well as a job dealing with the pottery's accounts. During his time at the Leach Pottery he also learnt about glazes, clay preparation and fired a few of his own pots. When the original kiln hearth, built by Tsurunosuke Matsubayashi in 1922 came to the end of its useful life, Guthrie and David Leach constricted a new one. At this time, Bernard Leach was away teaching at Dartington and as he and his son were so busy, Bret was tasked with experimenting with clay mixes and glazes and recording the results for the use of the pottery. Through Leach, Bret met and befriended many of the St Ives artists, Peter Lanyon, Naum Gabo, Adrian Stokes, Barbara Hepworth and Ben Nicholson etc. He married, and despite his role as a pilot in the RAF, he survived the war unscathed and took up teaching in 1946. Bret and Wendy became close friends with Francis Horne and her daughter Marjorie. It was Francis a local wealthy philanthropist who lived at Tremorna in Carbis Bay who offered Bernard Leach a capital loan of £2500 to set up his pottery with Hamada and also an assured income of £250 for 3 years and it was from Marjorie that Wendy inherited a cottage and collection of Leach pottery. It is a tantalising thought that some of the lots offered in this sale may have been personal gifts from Leach to his benefactor.Bret followed a productive and satisfying career, teaching in various Cornish schools and enjoying the exciting social life of post-war St Ives. He took an active interest in archaeology and joined many important digs and his work in Cornish pre-history led to his induction as a Bard in the Cornish Gorseth in 1959. In later life, he travelled extensively and involved himself in many local community projects including the creation of the Tate St Ives. It was here at the Tate in 2001, where Bret passed away whilst invigilating.
