Francesco Lojacono (Italian, 1841-1915)Sunlit grove signed 'F. Lojacono' (lower right) oil on canvas60 x 99cm (23 5/8 x 39in).Footnotes:ProvenancePrivate collection, Italy.The distinctive Saracen olive trees of Sicily were a subject that Lojacono, a native of the island, returned to numerous times throughout his career, and the present lot is possibly one of these canvases. His love of the subject was evidenced by his breaks from commissions, to paint in the Sicilian fields, and his preference for this tree in particular, either by itself or within a grove, inspired a new stylistic language. Painted en plein air, the trees are often tenderly depicted - like human forms. Paintings of olive trees were submitted to exhibitions; for example Ulivi saraceni was included at the Venice Biennale in 1897. Lojacono's paintings of olive trees convey a sense of stillness, as evidenced in the present lot. The majestic trees, captured with their natural veins, knots and tones are realistically depicted; yet set within a grove dappled with light, they are also poetic.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: PP This lot is owned by a private individual.

Edward Lear (British, 1812-1888)Venice, looking towards San Giorgio Maggiore inscribed, dated and numbered '18 - 20. Novr 1865. 3.30-4.30.PM./(43)' (lower right)pen, ink and watercolour over traces of pencil30 x 49.5cm (11 13/16 x 19 1/2in).Footnotes:ProvenancePrivate collection, UK. Got a gondola for the day ... it was very cold ... bright gorgeous - but cold weather(Edward Lear diaries, 13-16 November 1865).The present watercolour dates from Lear's second trip to Venice in November 1865. Lear first visited the city in 1857, returning eight years later on his way to Malta, to make studies for an oil painting which had been commissioned by Lady Waldegrave, one of his most loyal patrons. Lear went out onto the lagoon in a gondola, producing a series of studies of the city's famous landmarks: see for example Sotheby's, London, 3 July 2013, lot 184, Christie's, London, 5 July 2016, lot 121, and Venice 13 November 1865, (private collection, illustrated in Vivien Noakes, The Painter Edward Lear, Newton Abbot, p. 87).In the present lot, as with others of this series, Lear uses tight hatching lines in sepia ink to depict the landmarks, contrasted with freer areas of wash to portray the sky. As Noakes comments, 'In much of the work he did in Venice, Lear worked directly in often quite wet watercolour, laying in flowing washes which most accurately captures the shifting colour and light of the canal scenery'1.1 Vivien Noakes, The Painter Edward Lear, Newton Abbot, p. 87.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: PP This lot is owned by a private individual.
