WALTER RICHARD SICKERT, ARA (1860-1942) MORNINGTON CRESCENT Signed and inscribed with title, pen and brown ink with black crayon 34.5 x 24cm. Provenance: London, Thos. Agnew & Sons Ltd (label on new backboard) * Dr Wendy Baron observes that this is almost certainly an independent drawing which does not relate specifically to any known painting. It was drawn at 6 Mornington Crescent, where Sickert lodged and painted in rooms on the ground floor from autumn 1905 onwards. In spring 1907 he was able to rent the first floor rooms to use as a studio. He kept his Mornington Crescent studio rooms until around 1912 but tended to use his many other Camden Town painting studios more from 1908-09 onwards. Stylistically, the drawing can most convincingly be dated c.1909, when Sickert drew and painted several isolated studies of the standing nude, often holding the metal footrail of a bed. At that period Sickert used broken dashes of pen and ink and rough hatching to emulate the broken crusty touch of his contemporary oil paintings and to convey the effect of reflected light breaking down the barriers between figure and furniture. The drawing probably represents the model called Sally, painted and drawn by Sickert in several works of c.1909. Her messy hair, and the way she holds her head (bent forward), are similar. We are very grateful to Dr. Wendy Baron for compiling this footnote. ++ Slight time-toning of the paper

Exhibited: Paul Maze Exhibition, Wildenstein & Co. Ltd., London, 16 June - 8 July 1977 [exhib. cat. no. 33] Paul Maze was born in Normandy, the birthplace of impressionism. Fittingly, his biography is titled ‘The Lost Impressionist’, although he is also frequently described as a Post-Impressionist. His immersion in both movements is unsurprising. He knew Monet and Renoir, and Pisarro was an early teacher. He friends included Derain and Bonnard and he sketched with Raoul Dufy. George Braque was a lifelong friend and he was particularly close to Vuillard who encouraged his use of pastel. Maze had a strong Scottish connection; his first army post was as a volunteer interpreter with the Scots Greys. He served in both world wars and was a much-decorated hero who was awarded the Croix de Guerre, Legion D’honneur, the Military Medal and the Distinguished Conduct Medal. He developed a close friendship with Winston Churchill, whom he taught. He was a frequent visitor to Chartwell. Churchill wrote the preface to Maze’s autobiography and the forward to his 1939 New York exhibition. Then, he wrote “with the fewest of strokes, he can create an impression at once true and beautiful” His work was in the collection of the late Queen Mother and is held in many public collections, including the Tate and at Glasgow. This collection came from the artist’s family. It includes his favourite subjects, Trooping the Colour, still life, yachting, the Sussex landscape of his adopted country and, especially, his beloved wife, Jessie.
