Y†  BROADWOOD; A 7'4'' BARLESS GRAND PIANODATED 1904The Arts and Crafts case design attributed to CR Ashbee, the mahogany case with pierced and floral embossed strapwork hinges, on tapered square legs158cm wide, 102cm highProvenance:Sidney Leetham, Esq. Elm Bank, YorkHaslam & Whiteway, LondonJed Johnson, designer and boyfriend of Andy WarholAlan Wanzenberg, New York architectForbes Collection Catalogue Note:Originally supplied to Mr Sidney Leetham, Esq , of 'Elm Bank', York. The Leetham family were wealthy mill owners. The hand-wrought hinges are most certainly the work of the Guild of Handicrafts which was established by CR Ashbee. C R Ashbee was a prime mover in the Arts and Crafts Movement. He founded the Guild of Handicraft in London in 1888. The Guild soon established an international reputation for design and workmanship. In 1902, believing that 'the proper place for the Arts and Crafts is in the country' Ashbee and the Guild moved to Chipping Campden. The only other known grand with a similar case design is in the Cheltenham Art Gallery and Museum. That instrument was designed as a wedding present for Ashbee's wife and is considered to be of such cultural significance that it featured in the BBC program 'A History of the World in 100 Objects'.  The Broadwood 'Barless' grand was an important development in piano design, using a single cast steel frame without crossing frames, to create a freer more responsive instrument. It was highly successful, but they were only made for a short time as it proved too expensive to produce. They are now highly sought after.   布洛德伍德; 一架7'4'' 無杆三角鋼琴標注日期1904藝術和工藝琴箱設計歸因於CR Ashbee,紅木琴箱與穿孔和花卉壓花的肩帶鉸鏈,下麵是錐形方腿

 最初提供給西德尼·裡瑟姆先生,榆樹銀行,約克。利瑟姆家族是富有的磨坊主。手工製作鉸鏈是手工藝行會最肯定的工作,手工藝行會是由CR阿什比建立的。CR阿什比是工藝美術運動的主要推動者。1888年,他在倫敦成立了手工藝行會。行會很快在設計和工藝方面建立了國際聲譽。1902年,阿什比和行會認為"鄉下是藝術和工藝的合適地方",於是搬到了切平坎普登。另一家已知的擁有類似琴箱設計的大鋼琴位於切爾滕納姆美術館和博物館。那件樂器是為阿什比的妻子設計的結婚禮物,被認為具有文化意義,在BBC節目"100件物品中的世界史"中有專題報導。布羅德伍德"無杆"鋼琴是鋼琴設計的一個重要發展,它使用了一個沒有交叉框架的鑄鋼框架,創造了一個更自由更靈敏的樂器。這是非常成功的,但它們的製造時間很短,因為它的生產太昂貴。到後來,它們現在很受歡迎。   Y indicates that this lot may be subject to CITES regulations when exported.

This piano has an intriguing history as it is signed by some of the great musicians of the time, including Annette Essipoff-Leschetizky, Emil Liebling, Ignace Paderewski, Georges Pitsch, Frances Planté, Erwin Schulhoff.

Esipova's repertoire included works by Chopin, Schubert, Mozart, and Beethoven. In later years she taught at the St. Petersburg Conservatory; among her distinguished pupils was Sergey Prokofiev. Emil Liebling was a German-American pianist and composer.Jan Paderewski was a famous virtuoso Polish pianist and composer who became a spokesman for Polish independence. In 1919, he was the new nation's Prime Minister and foreign minister during which he signed the Treaty of Versailles, which ended World War I. Francis Planté was a French pianist famed as one of the first ever recording artists. Planté was born in Orthez. He studied piano under Antoine Marmontel, his career beginning at the age of seven in Paris.  Erwin Schulhoff was a Czech composer and pianist. He was one of the figures in the generation of European musicians whose successful careers were prematurely terminated by the rise of the Nazi regime.   博蘭斯勒, 萊比錫; 一架早期三角鋼琴1854紅木琴箱與穿孔琴譜架,下面是旋轉多面腿和腳輪,有獨特的博蘭斯勒專利活動長213cm, 寬136cm, 高94cm拍品來源:科布收藏目錄注解: 這是一架非常早期的布魯斯納三角鋼琴,由一位重要的製造者製造,他在1853年才開始製造。 這架鋼琴有著有趣的歷史,因為它是由當時的一些偉大的音樂家簽名的,包括安內特·艾希波夫·萊謝蒂茨基, 埃米爾·列伯陵, 揚·帕德路斯基, 喬治·皮奇, 佛朗西斯·普蘭特,埃爾文·舒爾霍夫。據傳它曾在奧古斯特·羅丹的家中呆過一段時間,但這並未得到證實。安內特·艾希波夫·萊謝蒂茨基,俄羅斯一位高級官員的女兒,她進入聖彼德堡音樂學院,在那裡她是希歐多爾· 萊謝蒂茨基的學生(在1880年與他結婚)。從1871年到1892年,艾希波夫主要生活在西歐。1874年,她在倫敦首次亮相;1875年,她在巴黎首次亮相。1876年,她在美國巡迴演出。艾希波夫的曲目包括蕭邦、舒伯特、莫札特和貝多芬的作品。後來,她在聖彼德堡音樂學院任教;她傑出的學生中有謝爾蓋·普羅科菲耶夫。埃米爾·利布林是一位德裔美國鋼琴家和作曲家。揚·帕德路斯基,一位著名的波蘭鋼琴家和作曲家,也是波蘭獨立的代言人。1919年,他擔任這個新國家的首相和外交部長,期間他簽署了凡爾賽條約,結束了第一次世界大戰。佛朗西斯·普蘭特是法國鋼琴家,是最早錄製唱片的藝術家之一。普蘭特出生在奧爾蒂斯。他師從安東莞·馬蒙泰爾,七歲時在巴黎開始了他的鋼琴生涯。 埃爾文·舒爾霍夫是捷克作曲家和鋼琴家。在那一代歐洲音樂家中,他是其中之一,他們成功的事業因納粹政權的崛起而過早地終止了。   Y indicates that this lot may be subject to CITES regulations when exported.

Y†  AN ENGLISH SQUARE PIANO CIRCA 1795 Possibly by Clementi, the satinwood and Kingwood crossbanded case inlaid with marquetry banding and brass beading and inset with Wedgwood blue jasperware plaques depicting classical figures, on fluted tapered legs with ormolu mounts, the 4 ½ octaves action with two hand levers controlling dampers and buff stops, with original green silk dust cover110cm wide, 50cm deep, 80cm highCatalogue Note:This beautiful little piano, only 42 ¾ " by 19 ½" was most likely a special commission or exhibition instrument. The 7 inset Wedgwood plaques are of the highest quality and are set-off the fine case. The Wedgwood pale-blue Jasper plaques sprigged with white ornament: The nation's greatest potter, Josiah Wedgwood's (1730-95) working life coincided with the 18th century's great love of all things 'Antique'. The splendours of Pompeii and Herculaneum were discovered in this century and the great 18th century Scottish architect Robert Adam had the ruins of the Emperor Diocletian's Palace in Split surveyed in the 1760s. In the ancient world, much extravagant ornament, embellishments for furniture and elaborate vessels were made from polished stones or glass so Wedgwood developed a variety of dry stoneware bodies that could be worked and polished in the lapidary manner to resemble jaspers, basalts, marbles etc. of the type that was being excavated all over the Greaco-Roman world. Wedgwood commissioned work from many of the best designers and artists of the day and collaborated with other manufacturers such as Matthew Boulton and architects like Robert Adam. 'Domestic Employment', seen here on the central medallion of the piano, was realized by his modeller William Hackwood after designs by Elizabeth, Lady Templetown from her cut paper patterns. The Potteries Museum and Art Gallery in Stoke on Trent has confirmed such attribution. In addition to Lady Templetown, Wedgwood used the designs of two other talented amateur female artists for designs for the new Jasper body perfected in 1776, namely Lady Diana Beauclerk and Miss Emma Crewe. It may seem unusual for the period for Wedgwood to commission female artists, but for the potter and his business partner Bentley, patronage of fashionable people, be they male or female, made perfect commercial sense. 英式方形鋼琴 約1795可能是通過克萊門蒂,緞木和黃檀樹交叉頻帶的琴箱,鑲嵌著細工鑲嵌條帶和黃銅卷邊,嵌入插圖韋奇伍德藍色浮雕玉石匾牌描繪著古典人物,加上鍍金支架槽錐形腿,4½八度擊弦機帶有兩個手杠杆控制減緩器和緩衝停止,加上原來的綠色絲綢防塵罩寬110cm, 深50cm, 高80cm目錄注解: 這架漂亮的小鋼琴,只有42又3 / 4英寸長,19½英寸寬,很可能是一個特別委託或展覽樂器。7個鑲嵌的韋奇伍德牌匾擁有最高品質,突出的精細琴箱。 韋奇伍德淡藍色的碧玉牌匾上點綴著白色裝飾: 英國最偉大的陶工喬賽亞·韋奇伍德(1730-1995年)的職業生涯與18世紀對 "古董"的熱愛不期而遇。龐貝和赫庫蘭尼姆的輝煌在本世紀被發現,18世紀偉大的蘇格蘭建築師羅伯特·亞當在18世紀60年代對位於斯普利特的戴克裡先皇帝宮殿的廢墟進行了勘察。在古代,很多奢侈的裝飾品,傢俱和精緻的器皿都是由拋光的石頭或玻璃製成的,所以韋奇伍德開發了各種乾燥的炻器,可以用寶石的方式加工和拋光,類似碧玉,玄武岩,古希臘羅馬世界各地都在挖掘的大理石等。 韋奇伍德委託當時許多最優秀的設計師和藝術家進行設計,並與其他製造商合作,如馬修博爾頓和羅伯特亞當等建築師。這架鋼琴的中央大獎章上的"Domestic Employment"是由他的模特威廉·哈克伍德根據伊莉莎白·坦普爾頓夫人的剪紙圖案設計出來的。除了鄧普頓夫人之外,韋奇伍德還使用了另外兩位才華橫溢的業餘女性藝術家的設計,他們是戴安娜·博克拉克夫人和艾瑪·克魯小姐,在1776年為賈斯珀設計了完美的新身體。在那個時期,韋奇伍德委託女性藝術家似乎是不尋常的,但對陶工和他的商業夥伴賓利來說,贊助時尚人士,無論是男性還是女性,都具有完美的商業意義 Y indicates that this lot may be subject to CITES regulations when exported.
