Nicholas Richard Brewer (1857-1949). Oil on canvas painting depicting two figures in a walled garden, one shrouded in shadow and the other bathed in sunlight. Signed along the lower right.Lot Essay:Born in a log cabin in Minnesota in 1857, Nicholas Brewer’s work typifies his frontier spirit and love for the American landscape. He grew up on a farm, where his days were defined by hard work, but he still found the time to draw and paint in between chores. At the age of 18, he moved to St. Paul. He received some art training there from Henry Koempel, a local painter and decorator, and ended up marrying Koempel’s daughter. He eked out a living for his swiftly growing family through portrait commissions and teaching.In 1885, Brewer first traveled to New York, determined to make it as a serious artist. He received a small amount of training there; however, he remained primarily self-taught. He began receiving some success in New York, and continued spending winters there for much of his career. His work was included in several exhibitions, and he was inducted into the illustrious Salmagundi Club. In his later career, he traveled the United States, giving traveling lectures and exhibitions, as well as taking portrait commissions wherever he went. During one productive visit to Washington D.C., Brewer even painted a portrait of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt.The main reason for his travels, though, was his love of the American landscape. Although Brewer was never able to fully make a living by landscape painting, it remained his true passion. His agrarian upbringing left him with a sense of reverence for the earth, and he delighted in experimenting with colors and textures to best capture the mood of a landscape. He paid particular heed to the flora he passed by, from the solemn Minnesota prairie grasses to southern blue bonnets to the tiny patches of scrub grass clinging to vertiginous California cliffs. His paintings rarely depict specific places; Brewer instead preferred to paint landscapes that he felt represented an ideal, more the spirit than the actuality of a location. Nevertheless, his travels provided him with a rich backdrop upon which to base his works.Sight; height: 25 in x width: 29 1/4 in. Framed; height: 32 in x width: 36 1/2 in.Condition: There are scattered restorations throughout the artwork; most notably along the upper left quadrant there is a large area of inpainting measuring approx. 1" x 2" in size.

Following deployment in Europe during WWII, Schulz returned to St. Paul and got a job working as an instructor for the Art Instruction Schools. After a short lived comic strip for the St. Paul Pioneer Press, he hit it big with Peanuts in 1950, which was syndicated by United Features. The strip quickly became an enormous success, with legions of fans across the country–and world–falling in love with his quirky cast of characters and charming illustrations.The present lot typifies the characteristics for which Schulz’s comics were best-loved.

Light wear to the frame; framed under glass.Please see the following link for additional condition photographs: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/skolnrxjqihq20l/AADQ-wRj62g0aEv7VjlPclBwa?dl=0

RARE: ROLEX SUBMARINER 6538 'JAMES BOND' STAINLESS STEEL AUTOMATIC WRIST WATCH of early production in 1958, serial number 472882, the round chocolate dial with gilt hour markers, outer seconds track in gilt, black aluminium bezel insert with red triangle marker, 37mm case with distinctive big crown signed 'BREVET', on a stainless steel Oyster bracelet with foldover clasp, in box, lacking papersThe Rolex Submariner 6538 was only in production for four years with this example being one of the first 1,000 models to come to the market. Affectionately referred to as the 'James Bond', this was worn by Sean Connery as 007 in films such as Dr. No, From Russia With Love, Goldfinger and Thunderball. Worn with various straps, this was the timepiece of choice for the elusive spy whilst undertaking his missions. When Dr. No was released in 1962, the Submariner was utilised mainly for its sole purpose of diving and sales were weak in comparison to that of the Datejust. However, thanks to 007 incorporating the Submariner as part of his uniform and highlighting the versatility of the watch whilst wearing it either with nothing but a pair of swimming trunks or a tuxedo, Submariner sales rocketed and Sean Connery was credited as 'the Bond star who sold a million Submariners'. Although the span of the 6538 was short, with supply only spanning four years, this has become one of the most iconic and sought after models that rarely come to the market.Watch is heavily damaged and requires attention.Movement has succumbed to water damage and is rusted. See images.Minute hand sweeps freely (requires attention)Crown fully extracts.Hands cannot be changed.Bezel difficult to turn and comes off easily.Dial and hands are later replacements.Bracelet stretched (likely a replacement).
