Frederick Leslie KENETT (1924-2012) From The Parthenon Marble Sculptures; Sculptures of A Group of Racing Horses, Two reclining Greek Figures, The Standing figure of a Greek Man and The Study of The Head of A Horse. Four albumen prints of sculpture mounted on board, each studio stamped to verso, each image approximately 39 x 50cm, mount size approximately 43 x 54cm. (4)Frederick Kenett is one of the most important and yet undervalued postwar British artists of the twentieth century. He was invited by the Egyptian government in the sixties to photograph the Tomb and artefacts of Tutankhamen*, and was the first person to photograph the treasures in the tomb housed in the museum in Cairo. He travelled widely in Europe photographing classical scenes and sculptures in Spain, France, Italy, Germany and Holland often negotiating with governments.In the early sixties Kenett befriended Henry Moore and instructed Moore on Photography in return Moore helped Kenett by instructing him on the methods and techniques around sculpting. It was during the early sixties that both Moore and Kennet toured together visiting France and the low countries. Following their time together and from the mid sixties Kenett transferred his skills to sculpture and started producing his own work. Comparing both the sculptures of Moore and Kenett it is clear to see the influence that Moore had on Kenett. Frederick Kenett has been described as ‘Unquestionably the greatest photographer of Sculpture in the World who himself became a scuplture’. The Listener, T.G Rosenthal* Sunday Times Colour Magazine Book Review 1963 Acquired by the present owner from the artists estate shortly after the artists passing in 2012. Areas of light discoloration can be found on a number of the mounts (mainly to the backs), a number of bumps can also be found to the corners. Other than this the prints are in good condition.

Some very light yellowing can be found in a number of the corners, this can be seen in the original images. But nothing that deters from the overall appeal of the charming prints. Other than this they are in excellent condition.
Jason Wason (1946). Bowl Unglazed with applied stud decoration, impressed personal seal mark, height18.5cm, diameter 35cm. Mollie & Graham met in Wimbledon in 1978. He, a Cornishman, born in Gulval in 1930, acquired an early appreciation of art visiting Newlyn Gallery with his family. In his early career Graham worked in London writing for the Daily Express and he was responsible for one of the first Arts columns in a tabloid paper, but in 1960 he opened an antique shop in Chelsea. Inspired by trips to Italy, he displayed early furniture and antiquities in an uncluttered modern setting, a technique he later utilised in his own home. The Darks moved back to Cornwall in 1980 and at their home in Flushing, and later Truro, curated an impressive body of art and antiquities with a particular focus on Cornish artists such as Paul Feiler and Terry Frost, who both became close friends. The paintings were displayed alongside mid-century modern designer furniture by Eames, Bertoia and Magistretti, and arrangements of antiquities, thought of as ‘ensembles’ by Graham. Warm, charming, and generous hosts, they entertained their artistic circle of friends in their exquisitely arranged home, and it is a privilege for us to handle their beautiful possessions today. We hope to present them to you with as much care and consideration as the Darks used, and that those two remarkable connoisseurs would have approved.Graham Dark 1930-2015Mollie Dark 1928-2024 The stud decoration displays some wear. One has a rather large chip to the tip, and the others suffer loss to the black decoration.
