WELLS (H.G.) AND DAVID LOWA collection of 9 large original artworks by David Low for H.G. Wells' novel The Autocracy of Mr. Parham, published in 1930, pen, pastel crayon, ink and body colour on drawing paper, captions, proofing corrections and amendments in the margins, each signed ('Low') lower left or right, 435 x 695mm., [1930] (9)Footnotes:The artwork produced by the great British cartoonist David Low for H.G. Wells's political novel The Autocracy of Mr. Parham, published in 1930. Low's striking large format images were greatly reduced in size when published as double-page spreads in the printed novel. Wells's satire of autocracy and fascism, big money and the inadvertent slide into the commencement of a World War brought about by 'the imaginations of a modern British imperialist of the university type' (Wells, Experiment in Autobiography, 1934), was based on recognisable caricatures of figures such as Lord Beaverbrook (Low's employer at the Evening Standard) and Mussolini, and differences in outlook between Britain, America and Europe, themes eloquently illuminated by Low with background of jazz dancing, flappers, grandstanding heads of states, the mobilising of military forces, and their consequences represented by the collapse of Nelson's column in Trafalgar Square. The book was published in London by William Heinemann (July 1930), and in America by Doubleday Doran (June 1930).For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

BRUCE LEE - Bruce Lee's Hand-Drawn and Signed Flying Kung Fu Warriors IllustrationA rare, ornately detailed hand-drawn illustration by martial arts legend Bruce Lee. Lee, a gifted visual artist who loved to draw martial arts-related subjects and themes, hand-rendered this alluring illustration of four classical Kung Fu warriors in mid-fight, with each one brandishing a signature weapon. The drawing is beautifully articulated in Lee's distinctive style and features his personal signature in the top left corner in green ink. Lee gifted this drawing to his younger brother, Robert, between 1968 and 1970, shortly before he returned to Hong Kong to launch his groundbreaking career in film with Golden Harvest Studios. In the years before his death, Lee had been developing a script entitled "Northern Leg, Southern Fist," a film intended to showcase his extraordinary abilities with classical Chinese weapons. The artist also engaged in two historic photoshoots - one at Golden Harvest Studios and the other at Shaw Brother's Studios - in which he dressed as iconic historical, literary, and pop cultural Chinese characters or archetypes. As he hoped to star in, direct, and produce a film in the popular martial arts sub-genre, it is likely such a project as "Northern Leg, Southern Fist" was on his mind when he created this evocative illustration. Bruce Lee drawings with this level of detail are extremely rare. This illustration exhibits significant creasing and tanning along the right edge, and mild tanning and creasing along the left edge. The main body of the illustration and the signature, however, retain their original clarity and vibrancy. Dimensions: 10.25" x 8" (26 cm x 20 cm)Sold without copyright; see copyright notice in the Buyer's Guide. Estimate: $8,000 - 12,000This lot will be auctioned on Tuesday, June 21st.

Thomas Theodor Heine 1867 Leipzig - 1948 Stockholm Ein Patriot. 1901. Tuschzeichnung, Graphit und Gouache. Links unten mit dem Künstlermonogramm. Auf festem Velin. 36,9 x 14,7 cm (14,5 x 5,7 in), Blattgröße. Originalentwurf, publiziert in Simplicissimus, Jg. 6, Heft 25, 9.9.1901, S. 197. Wir danken Herrn Prof. Dr. Thomas Raff für die freundliche wissenschaftliche Beratung. PROVENIENZ: Privatsammlung Schleswig-Holstein. Nach dem Studium an der Kunstakademie Düsseldorf beginnt Heine in München als Karikaturist und Illustrator für humoristische und künstlerisch-literarische Zeitschriften wie die 'Fliegenden Blätter' und 'Pan' zu zeichnen. Als er 1895 den Verleger Albert Langen kennenlernt, heben die beiden die politisch-satirische Zeitschrift 'Simplicissimus' aus der Taufe, für die Heine die bekannte rote Bulldogge als Emblem kreiert. Im 'Simplicissimus' publiziert Heine seine Zeichnungen zu politischen und sozialen Themen, wobei er in der ihm individuellen Linienführung Elemente politischer Karikatur, künstlerischer Grafik und Illustration vereint. Heine gehört in der publizistischen Landschaft der für die Zeit so charakteristischen Zeitschriften und Magazine, denen ein hoher künstlerischer als auch sozialpolitischer Anspruch innewohnt, sicherlich zu den bedeutendsten und stilprägendsten Figuren, die das Zeitgeschehen nicht mit Worten, sondern mit präzisem Zeichenstift kommentieren.
