A charming Aubusson verdure tapestrylate 18th centurythe idyllic landscape with verdant foliage and prunus to the foreground, a winding river in the middle distance -disappearing into a dusky landscape, a charming lime -green parrot in the tree to the right with red plumage and game bird to the bottom left, the elaborate border with foliate spray to each corner,320cm x 257cm (the outer border possibly reduced at some point)Footnotes:Provenance: Acquired by the present collector from Keshishians of London, 2011.France in the late 17th century saw an explosion in tapestry production. The 1660s marked a turning point where France became the new centre of tapestry weaving in Europe. Most notably Louis XIV's great minister Jean -Baptiste Colbert set up three main centres -each with a specific type of buyer in mind. The Gobelins in Paris was set up to furnish the Royal Palaces, Beauvais for discerning wealthy clients and Aubusson for less affluent buyers. While Gobelins and Beauvais had a number of notable designers leading a team of weavers, Aubusson's set up was slightly simpler. The weavers produced pieces which followed the fashions of the day -these could extend to not just hangings but upholstery, curtains and cushion covers.The weavers of Aubusson focussed on more 'low warp' work which meant a simpler type of tapestry could be created, and quite quickly. These types of tapestries, like the present lot, were characterised by the popular romantic landscapes and verdures. While many said it simplified the process of weaving and were, in some ways, less fluid, they were attractive and meant that a large portion of the population could imitate the grandeur of the Sun King in their own homes.LiteratureBarty Phillips, 'Tapestry,' Phaidon, London, 1994Edith Appleton Standen, 'Renaissance to Modern Tapestries in the Metropolitan Museum of Art,' The Metropolitan Museum of Art Bulletin/Spring 1987This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: TPTP Lot will be moved to an offsite storage location (Cadogan Tate, Auction House Services, 241 Acton Lane, London NW10 7NP, UK) and will only be available for collection from this location at the date stated in the catalogue.

NAM JUNE PAIK (Seoul, 1932 - Miami, 2006).Untitled, 1992, from the "Suite Olympic Centennial".Lithograph on 270 grams Velin d'Arches paper, copy 58/250.Signed and justified by hand.Measurements: 63 x 90 cm.The Olympic Suite is composed of 50 lithographs and serigraphs chosen to represent various contemporary artistic trends. Edited to commemorate the first centenary of modern Olympism, the chosen artists are defined by diverse pictorial movements and trends.Nam June Paik worked throughout his career as a music composer, but also as a video artist, painter and printmaker. He received his musical training at the University of Tokyo, where he also studied Art History. He later traveled to Germany in the mid-1950s to study music theory in Munich, Cologne and Freiburg. He worked in the electronic music research laboratory of Radio Cologne, and participated in the artistic research groups Happening and Fluxus. In this and other lithographs he investigates the graphic possibilities from the serialization of elements close to the aesthetics of the video game and even the "emoticon".
CELSO LAGAR ARROYO (Ciudad Rodrigo, León, 1891 - Seville, 1966)."Female nude".Oil on canvas.Signed in the upper right corner.Attached certificate issued by the Lagar Archive.Measurements: 68 x 50 cm; 78 x 60 cm (frame).Celso Lagar offers us in this canvas a female nude captured from life. For it he uses an energetic language that seeks above all to capture the volumetry and the geometric game, although he maintains descriptive details that avoid the loss of realism. The woman shows the viewer practically her entire naked body, since only the lower part of her legs remains outside the perimeter of the support.Celso Lagar began his training in the field of sculpture with Miguel Blay in Madrid. His teacher advised him to travel to Paris to complete his studies and, after spending a year in Barcelona, he traveled to the French capital for the first time in 1911. Lagar's career, both personally and artistically, can be divided into four distinct stages, marked by the two World Wars. The first of these periods is that of apprenticeship, in Madrid, Barcelona and Paris, in contact with artists such as Amadeo Modigliani. This stage comes to an end when he is forced to leave Paris at the outbreak of the Great War. He settled in Barcelona but held several exhibitions in the French capital, which served as a letter of introduction upon his return to the city after the war, in 1919. By then Lagar is already a consolidated artist, and settles definitively in Paris. He regularly exhibited in the best Parisian galleries (Berthe Weil, Percier, Zborowski, Barreiro, Brouant, Druet), his style reached its personal maturity and he devoted himself fully to painting, leaving sculpture behind. He developed a painting focused on very specific themes: still lifes, Spanish themes, landscapes and circus scenes. After the period of avant-garde influences (cubist, fauvist, etc.), Lagar reached his own style, marked by the influences of Goya and Picasso. Gradually his palette cools down, but his favorite themes remain the same, and his recognition by the public and critics increases. The beginning of World War II marked the end of Lagar's golden age. He emigrated to the French Pyrenees, and his return to the recently liberated city of Paris did not have the repercussions he had hoped for, as the collecting public demanded new contents and modes. After his wife fell ill in 1956, Lagar fell into a deep depression and was admitted to a psychiatric center. He definitively stopped painting and in 1964 he returned to Spain, spending his last years at his sister's house in Seville. Lagar is represented in the Museum of Contemporary Art in Madrid, the Museum of Art Nouveau and Art Deco Casa Lis, the Patio Herreriano in Valladolid, the Petit Palais in Geneva, the Fine Arts of La Rochelle, Castres and Honfleur (France) and in prestigious collections such as Crane Kallman (London), the Zborowski (Paris) or the Mapfre (Madrid).
