λ DAVID BOMBERG (BRITISH 1890-1957) STUDY FOR THE PALESTINE RESTORATION FUND POSTER Ink, watercolour and wash 39.5 x 26.5cm (15½ x 10¼ in.)Executed in 1923. Provenance: The artist's family D. Mole Davies-Rees, Private Collection Denys Wilcox Fine Art/Court Gallery, Somerset Exhibited: Chichester, Pallant House Gallery, Bomberg, 21 October-4 February 2017, travelling exhibition to Newcastle, Laing Art Gallery; London, Ben Uri Gallery until September 2018 (lent to the exhibition by the Court Gallery)Literature: MacDougall, Sarah; Dickson, Rachel, Bomberg (London: Ben Uri Gallery and Museum, 2017), no. 62, p. 105 Like many others, Bomberg found himself unsettled in the aftermath of the First World War. Support from The Tate in 1923 through the Duveen Drawings Fund saw two works by Bomberg enter the permanent collection boosting morale to the struggling artist. Nonetheless, it was his friendship with Muirhead Bone, whom he had met through the Canadian War Memorial Project, which spearheaded Bomberg's involvement within the Zionist movement. Artists such as Jacob Kramer following the 1917 Balfour Declaration were employed as official artists to produce works in support of the establishment of a Jewish homeland in Palestine. However, despite Bone's support of Bomberg and negotiations with Leonard Stein, the political secretary of the Zionist Organisation Bomberg was turned down as an official artist. Bone persisted and managed to arrange a commission from the Palestine Foundation Fund (Kere Heyesod) who were focused on recording 'Zionist Reconstruction.' With financial support from Bone, Bomberg and his wife arrived in Jerusalem in 1923, via Alexandria and Jaffa. Bomberg was immediately struck by the contrast between the architecture of Jerusalem in both the modern and historic quarters set against the dramatic landscape. This fascination with the landscape continued over the coming years whilst Bomberg studied the Judean Hills trekking into the desserts of Petra and Jericho. Bomberg lived in the Old City of Jerusalem looking out across to the Mount of Olives.It is possible that this present study for the Palestine Restoration Fund Poster was produced before Bomberg arrived in Jerusalem as a sample to illustrate his skills for the Zionist Organisation, which he was eventually turned down from. Comparisons have been drawn to a design for Coterie Magazine that Bomberg produced in 1919, depicting a lone figure constructed of angular lines set against a composition of geometric shapes. This work was in fact never published. The present lot is filled with a subdued colour palette with earthy tones of brown and mauve possibly inspired by the rich soil and landscape of Jerusalem. The lone figure fills the left side of the composition, the right arm stretched high above their head to read the proclamation. A beacon of light shines brightly overhead representing hope. Condition Report: Unexamined out of glazed frame. The sheet appears to be stuck down at the four corners and to the centre of both the left and right edge. Some staining to the sheet throughout most evident to the upper edge, right edge and upper right corner. There is a small tear to the centre of the left edge. Some dark spots of staining scattered across the upper right quadrant. Condition Report Disclaimer

Braddock. Sergt. R.M.L.I.) heavily polished and worn, otherwise fine or better (7) £12,000-£16,000 --- Importation Duty This lot is subject to importation duty of 5% on the hammer price unless exported outside the UK --- --- Provenance: Dix Noonan Webb, June 1998. C.G.M. London Gazette 2 July 1915: ‘Behaved with distinguished gallantry on May 1st during operations south of Achi Baba. When the enemy in greatly superior numbers attacked an outpost of 30 men he volunteered in company with Lieutenant Cheetham and one other man to counter-attack the enemy on a flank in the open under heavy fire, thus assisting to save the outpost line.’ Charles James Braddock was born in London on 11 March 1887, and entered the Royal Marine Light Infantry at the recruiting depot in Deal in March 1904. Posted to the Chatham Division, he started to make a name for himself as a talented boxer in the period leading up to the Great War, winning numerous bouts by knockout. And that fledgling career in the ring – which eventually extended until 1923 - led to him purchasing his discharge in May 1914, when he was enrolled in the Royal Fleet Reserve. Recalled on the outbreak of hostilities, he joined the R.M. Brigade in the Royal Naval Division and served in the Dunkirk and Antwerp operations in September-October 1914. But it was for his subsequent deeds in Gallipoli that he was awarded the C.G.M., following the award of a certificate by the G.O.C. of the Royal Naval Division ‘for courageous and gallant conduct in the Field’ on 1 May 1915. On that occasion, when the Royal Marines bore the brunt of Kemal’s third attack on 29 April to 1 May 1915, the Chatham and Portsmouth Battalions suffered 337 casualties. The History of the Royal Marines in the War of 1914-1919 takes up the story: ‘On 1 May, the Turks attacked again at 4 a.m., but this was broken by fire. Another attack was made at 4 p.m., along the front of Quinn’s Post and Lone Pine trenches. The Turkish attack came across Johnston’s Jolly and 1000 Turks attacked Chatham R.M.L.I., who opened rifle and machine-gun fire, which broke the Turkish attack when about 200 yards off, and by 6 p.m., the enemy had retired. Lieutenant J. Cheetham was awarded the D.S.C. for his courage and initiative in the defence of this position. Private (acting Sergeant) C. J. Braddock (Chatham), the well-known heavy-weight boxer, was awarded the Conspicuous Gallantry Medal, for volunteering, in company with Lieutenant Cheetham and one other man to counter-attack the enemy on a flank in the open under heavy fire, thus assisting to clear the line.’ Braddock was advanced to Corporal in October 1915 and saw further action in France, being specially promoted to Sergeant ‘for good services in the Field’ in February 1917. He returned to the U.K. six months later and remained employed on depot duties for the remainder of the war, in which period he no doubt continued to hone his boxing skills. Having then served as a Barrack Police Sergeant and been awarded the L.S. & G.C. Medal in July 1920, he was discharged in June 1922. Recalled on the renewal of hostilities, he was appointed a Colour-Sergeant in April 1940 and served as an orderly at Deal. Sold with the recipient’s original parchment Certificate of Service, together with a Certificate for Wounds and Hurts for fractures received in a gymnasium accident in December 1917.
The rare Second War fall of Crete D.C.M. group of four awarded to Marine B. V. Jones, Royal Marines, who was decorated for downing an enemy aircraft with his Bren gun, prior to being wounded in making a solo bayonet charge against seven German parachutists Distinguished Conduct Medal, G.VI.R. (PLY.X.100514 B. V. Jones. Mne. R.M.); 1939-45 Star; Africa Star; War Medal 1939-45, edge bruise to the first, otherwise good very fine (4) £14,000-£18,000 --- Importation Duty This lot is subject to importation duty of 5% on the hammer price unless exported outside the UK --- --- One of two D.C.M.s awarded to the Royal Marines for Crete. D.C.M. London Gazette 4 November 1941. The original recommendation states: ‘Crete: At his gun position S.W. of Canea on 21 May he displayed outstanding courage, by shooting down an enemy aircraft by firing a Bren gun from the shoulder. Later in the day he made a lone bayonet charge against seven parachutists armed with sub-machine guns who had landed in a glider close to the gun position. He was wounded in this action. This prompt action displayed great bravery and was a fine example to all ranks.’ Benjamin Vaughan Jones was born in Neath, Glamorganshire on 22 September 1916, and is believed to have seen service as a gunner in the Territorials in the 1930s. If so, he transferred to the Royal Marines soon after the outbreak of war, for in the summer of 1940 he joined the Mobile Naval Base Defence Organisation (M.N.B.D.O), in which capacity he was embarked for Suez in the following year. Subsequently embarked for Crete, as a member of 23 Light Anti-Aircraft Battery, 2nd Royal Marine Anti-Aircraft Regiment, he was awarded the D.C.M. for the above cited deeds south-west of Canea on 21 May 1941. His wounds were extensive - the Neath Guardian later reporting that he was hit by four bullets in his solo bayonet charge - and he appears to have been evacuated to the U.K. in the hospital ship Almanzora. Having the attended the R.N.H. Aberdeen, he was discharged from the corps in November 1941. He died back in Glamorganshire in April 1972. Sold with typed Admiralty D.C.M. citation, mounted on card together with his enamelled D.C.M. League lapel badge,
