Don Balke (North Carolina, B. 1933) "Red Fox" Signed lower left. Original Watercolor on Illustration Board. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting was originally published on the Fleetwood commemorative cover for Balke's Baby Wildlife of the 50 States, postmarked August 10, 1984. Deep in the woodlands of Missouri, four playful Red Fox cubs linger in the evening mist. Born but a month ago, they have spent their first days in the safety of their "earth," a cavity in the ground -- closely guarded by their mother. Their father -- called a dog -- spends much of his time supplying food for the nursing mother. Once these carefully tended pups are weaned, he will bring food for them, too. Frolicking with their parents, the young cubs enjoy their first adventures in the world. The babies are treated to the playful antics of their father who thrives on his role of playmate, even more than their mother, the vixen. Indeed, even as adults, Red Foxes are known for their playfulness. Bounding about, bucking, somersaulting and chasing their tails, they are truly the clowns of the forest. But all of this takes coordination and, being the good parents that they are, the dog and the vixen play games with their young games that will help them develop. For example, when the dog returns with food, the cubs must take it from his mouth -- not an easy trick as the young foxes must jump to reach it. The parents make it even harder by moving their heads from side to side. It all seems to be a game ... as the four cubs jump, bump and tumble about. But they are also exercising their muscles, learning coordinate movements and sharpening senses that they will need later for survival. Image Size: 11 x 12.75 in. Overall Size: 18.25 x 20 in. Unframed. (B08940)

A MINIATURE BRONZE ARROW VASE, TOUHU, YUAN TO MING DYNASTYChina, 1279-1644. The facetted vase supported on a hexagonal splayed foot, the tall neck cast with two sinuous chilong in high relief below a hexagonal diaper pattern covering the handles as well, the body similarly decorated with figures on horseback, one side with a figure inside a pavilion beside a second smaller building. Provenance: A notable private collector in Kensington, London, United Kingdom. Condition: Very good condition with old wear and some casting irregularities, minuscule nicks, occasional light scratches, minor dents, and minimal losses. Fine, naturally grown, dark patina.Weight: 964.1 g Dimensions: Height 18.8 cmThe form of this vase is inspired by archaic bronze vessels used for touhu (lit. 'pitch-pot'), a traditional East Asian game that requires players to throw arrows or sticks from a set distance into a large, sometimes ornate, vessel. The game originated by the Warring States period, probably invented by archers or soldiers as a pastime during idle periods. It began as a game of skill or a drinking game at parties, but by the time it was described in a chapter of the Chinese Classic Book of Rites, it had acquired Confucian moral overtones. Initially popular among elites, it spread to other classes and remained popular in China until the end of the Qing dynasty. Touhu was usually a contest between players, who had to throw arrows into the mouth or tubular handles of the vase, which was placed at an equal distance between two mats on which the players knelt. Touhu vases continued to be produced in the Song dynasty and later, made in various materials including bronze, cloisonne, and ceramic.

Torso of the goddess Diana the Huntress. Roman. 2nd-3rd century AD.Marble.Provenance: private collection, Tel Aviv. Private collection, New York. Purchased at Fortuna Fine Arts, New York, between 1980-2000.Good state of preservation, no restorations.Measurements: 44.5 cm. high; 52 cm. high with pedestal.Roman sculpture in marble. It is the torso of Diana, the goddess of hunting (similar to the Greek Artemis). It is a free-standing piece, worked in the round to be seen from either side, so that the chiton has been masterfully draped with deep naturalistic folds and in different layers, like skilful kolpos at hip level. At the back, a diagonally diagonal garment serves as the strap of the quiver. The goddess of nature, forests and hunting, she must have originally carried a quiver with a bow and arrow, and may have been accompanied by a dog or a piece of game. The influence of Greek statuary is evident.The Romans brought two important innovations to the world of sculpture: portraiture and historical relief, neither of which existed in the Greek world. However, they followed Greek models for much of their sculptural production, a base which in Rome was combined with the Etruscan tradition. After the first contacts with Classical Greece via the Magna Graecia colonies, the Romans conquered Syracuse in 212 BC, a rich and important Greek colony in Sicily, which was adorned with a large number of Hellenistic works. The city was sacked and its art treasures taken to Rome, where the new style of these works soon replaced the Etruscan-Roman tradition that had prevailed until then. Cato himself denounced the looting and decoration of Rome with Hellenistic works, which he considered a dangerous influence on native culture, and deplored the Romans' applause of statues from Corinth and Athens, while ridiculing the decorative terracotta tradition of ancient Roman temples. However, these oppositional reactions were in vain; Greek art had subdued Etruscan-Roman art in general, to the extent that Greek statues were among the most coveted prizes of war, being displayed during the triumphal procession of the conquering generals.
Crompton (Gigi, née Richter, art conservator, botanist and author, 1922-2020).- Collection of material from the archive of Gigi Crompton, including a first edition of A Visit to Morin with a presentation inscription from Greene, printed ephemera, 2 loose photographs, and c.30 letters from various correspondents, letters autograph or typed and signed, some scribbles or creases, folds, v.s. v.d., 1942-1966 (sml qty).⁂ A fascinating and assorted archive of letters with notable correspondents as Graham Greene, Valentine Penrose (née Boué, poet, surrealist artist and first wife of Roland Penrose), Sir John Rothenstein (longest standing director of the Tate Gallery from 1938-64), Gian Carlo Menotti (Italian-American composer and playwright), and Dojean and Peter Smithers (conservative politician and possible inspiration for Ian Fleming's James Bond). Other notable features include a scarce a Penang postage stamp to the Greene postcard, and various curious mentions of Picasso - another figure on the periphery of this group.Though lesser-known herself, Crompton cultivated a close friendship circle of artistic and literary luminaries who write fondly and extensively of their lives across the early 1940s to the 1960s. Highlights of some of the Greene letters include invitations from the writer "is there any chance of tempting you and Gigi on a holiday with me and Catherine? by the luck of the game I've got a lot of kroner in Sweden...", and a brief update regarding his refuge in France after he was swindled by his financial advisor, Tom Roe in 1965 "circumstances have driven me to take up residence in France....I'm not allowed back to England for about fifteen months". The postcard from Graham Greene has a desirable Malaya/Penang postage stamp. Her sister-in-law, Catherine Walston, had a 14-year affair with Greene and the Cromptons rented a cottage on the Walston estate for many years.Other notable mentions feature from Dojean Smithers, "Warsaw tomorrow. Picasso and Eluard are here. Picasso has brought some of his pottery (magnificent). I asked Leger what he thought of it. He said 'trés joli'. Another picturesque figure is to Davidson, American sculptor, who looks exactly like Karl Marx..."; and in another letter she notes "Picasso's play was quite wonderful, though I can't imagine how the London Gallery was able to clean up the mess. WHO played La Tarte?...". Letters from Menotti excuse himself for his late note "I have a weakness for old maids and unanswered letters which explains my aversion to marriage and correspondence"; and copious mentions of concerts - "I've corrected so many pages of score that my eyes began to revolt".Overall an expansive and delightful insight into the lives of a close-knit artistic circle.
