* COLIN FRASER (SCOTTISH b. 1956), BREAKING WAVES egg tempera on panel, signed, titled and dated 2000 label versoframed and under glassimage size 78cm x 108cm, overall size 107cm x 137cm Label verso: The Gatehouse Gallery, GlasgowComment: An outstanding and very large work by Colin Fraser and probably the largest example to be offered at auction.Note 1: By repute, the lady is the artist's wife. Colin Fraser's work rarely appears at auction but in 2021 Bonhams, London sold "Warm Light" (61 x 65cm egg tempera) by Fraser for £3000 (hammer) - lot 153, Modern British & Irish Art 28th April 2021 and in The Scottish Contemporary Art Auction of 10th November 2022 lot 61 "Early Morning Light" (a 67 x 46cm egg tempera) by Colin Fraser sold for £2200 (hammer).Note 2: Colin Fraser was born in Glasgow in 1956. He studied art in Brighton while in his twenties before moving to Lund in southern Sweden, where he lives with his wife and children. He exhibits regularly at the Royal Academy Summer Show, Catto Gallery and Petley Fine Art in London, Mira Godard Gallery in Canada as well as at galleries in New York and Glasgow. His work is held in numerous private and corporate collections throughout North America, the UK, Europe and Asia. Ever since his first exhibition in Brighton in 1978, Colin Fraser has worked almost exclusively in egg tempera, which has the benefit of being very long lasting, with examples over two thousand years old still in existence, and was the most widely used painting medium until the sixteenth century, when it was superseded by oils. However, it is also extraordinarily time-consuming. The painted surface must be built up layer by translucent layer, with the paint drying instantaneously and not amenable to manipulation afterwards, unlike oil paints. Although a notoriously difficult medium, it has become a firm favourite of Fraser’s, who says that the “restrictions have been paramount in helping me be more direct in my approach to the work, with the instant drying and transparency of the paint actively contributing to a higher level of spontaneity of execution”. Colin Fraser is particularly drawn to its vitality which reminds him “of the dynamism of the sun – never static, always changing”. “Observed light is usually what attracts me into the process of painting,” he says. “The surface of a work painted in tempera simply has a unique glow which cannot be imitated in other mediums”. Constructing each painting is an arduous process, each beginning with an idea or a chance observation followed by weeks of experimentation with arrangements and preparatory drawings. Many of his scenes are staged with strategic placement of chairs, diaphanous textiles and trays of fruit. He believes that the painter “chooses the content and the arrangement, and then it becomes a question of striving to achieve a particular mood”. The prestigious Catto Gallery (London) has staged highly succesful solo shows for Colin Fraser in 2015, 2017, 2019 & 2022.

* Liber Amicorum of Richard Tate. Compiled while a student at the University of Copenhagen, April to October 1648, 112 leaves including blanks, a total of 41 leaves (50 pages) with manuscript inscriptions, signed ownership inscription to front pastedown, 'Amicorum, Fautorumque Danorum Album, R Tatij' [Album of the Danish friends and patrons of R[ichard] Tate], later pencil note beneath, ‘to the care of the Rector of Kirby Misperton, Pickering, Yorkshire’, burgundy morocco gilt bookplate of W. A. Foyle (detached), contemporary vellum with yapp edges, embossed ownership name in capitals of Richard Tatius and Latin date 1648 to upper cover, rubbed and soiled, oblong 8vo (108 x 140 mm)QTY: (1)NOTE:Provenance: Richard Tate (c. 1625-1680), ownership inscription and embossed name to upper cover. Inserted in the volume is a note of c. 1920 that this is one of two books – ‘the other is in the church chest’ – given to Archdeacon [Willliam Henry] Hutchings, rector of Kirby Misperton in Yorkshire from 1884 to [19]19 ‘concerning the Rev Richard Tate rector of Kirby Misperton in the 16th century. They are interesting and should be kept in the church chest’. Tate was in fact never rector of Kirby, but did serve there as schoolmaster from 1661. W. A. Foyle, Beeleigh Abbey (bookplate).The volume contains brief messages from the faculty of Copenhagen University, the staff of colleges at Roskilde and Køge, five bishops and the incumbents of churches in the city of Copenhagen. Most signatories identify themselves by their office but when they fail to do, Tate had added that information in his distinctive hand.Among the signatories is Ole Worm (13 May 1588 – 31 August 1654), a Danish physician and polymath and founder of the Wormian Museum, who taught Greek, Latin, physics and medicine; Thomas Bang (1600-1661), professor of Hebrew and then of theology, and in his later years Keeper of the Royal Library; the bishops of Aalborg, Lund (Skåne), Ribe, Viborg and Zealand, and Thomas Lindeman, the German pastor at Copenhagen. Almost all the contributors display their erudition by heading their entry with a biblical or classical quotation in Latin, Greek, Hebrew or Arabic.The inscriptions are generally flattering of Tate’s character and learning, and some describe him as a candidate of philosophy and theology. Tate maintained the book during the first ten months of 1648, and almost from the beginning the signatories express good wishes for his safe return to England. Unless he made several journeys home, it should perhaps be assumed that Tate spent what was perhaps his last year in Denmark collecting the signatures.On 1 September 1648 Thomas Bang wrote introducing himself to John Selden (1584–1654, lawyer and historical and linguistic scholar). The letter was to be carried by Richard Tate, a student of sound learning, an Englishman ‘but hitherto a Dane by residence, and by breeding in liberal studies’; he assures Selden will not regret any favour shown to Tate, to whom any reply can be entrusted. The entries in Tate’s Liber show little space for a journey to England and back in the September of 1648. Bang wrote again to Selden on 2 May 1652, expressing Tate’s desire again to be his messenger, to which he has agreed on account of Tate’s ‘irreproachable life among them’ (Seaton).If the identification in Alumni is correct, Richard Tate matriculated at King's Cambridge in 1640, received a BA in 1645 and an MA from Magdalene in 1649, and was licensed as a schoolmaster at Kirby Misperton in Yorkshire (to which the book was presented under the misapprehension that he had been its rector) on 2 August 1661. He was ordained priest by archbishop Accepted Frewen on 17 August 1662, licensed to preach as curate on 23 September and on 14 November inducted as rector of Bilton, just outside York; he was buried there on 1 May 1680. Tate was the father of Matthew Tate (1662-1759), who served several livings in Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Wiltshire. The origins of the family have not been established.See Ethel Seaton, ‘John Selden in contact with Scandinavia’; Saga-Book of the Viking Society for Northern Research 12 (1937-1945), 261-71.

§ JOAN EARDLEY R.S.A. (SCOTTISH 1921-1963) LANDSCAPE WITH TREES Signed, pastel Dimensions:20cm x 25cm (8in x 9.75in) Provenance:Provenance:The Artist’s EstateAcquired from the above by Cyril Gerber Fine Art, Glasgow from where acquired by the present owner in 2003 Note: This work is one of a series of studies relating the paintings The Little Larchwood (I) and (II), both of c.1955 (see Chrisopher Andreae, Joan Eardley, Lund Humphries, Farnham, 2013, p.145). It is likely to have been executed in situ whilst Eardley was visiting her friend, the photographer Audrye Walker, as Christopher Andreae has explained: ‘The ‘little larchwood’ paintings were done during one of Joan’s visits to Caverslee, the shepherd’s cottage in the Borders used as a country retreat by the Walker family.’ (op.cit.)

Alan Davie (1920-2014)Upsurge No.3, 1952dated '20 8 52' (upper left), signed, dated, and inscribed 'Alan Davie/Aug 52/SPEED SPACE' (to reverse)oil on board 122 x 101cm. Provenance:The Artist's Estate;Private Collection; Bonhams. London, Modern British and Irish Art, 22 June 2022, lot 60. Literature: Alan Bowness, Alan Davie, Lund Humphries, London, 1967, cat.no.147 The present lot is the third in a sequence of works titled Upsurge and subtitled Speed Space, each painted by Davie in 1952. The critic Robert Melville observed that Davie's work of this period relates to the fascination with science fiction prevalent among the artists of the emerging Independent Group, as well as the sacrificial imagery of Francis Bacon. Across the Upsurge pictures, Davie's application of paint is thick, the final image resultant of process rather than design. Upon the acquisition of another work from 1952 (Black Mirror), which matches approach and palette of the Upsurge series, the Tate gallery interviewed Davie. He elaborated on his practice around this date: "The paintings of the period that remain are few — the outcome of violent and mainly destructive work — most of them have many various paintings underneath them... each successive image being the result of the destruction of the previous one (obliteration by a new image, not removal of). At that time I felt the need to produce a work by a flash of intuition — if it didn't come off I did another on top. There is no doubt that many good things were destroyed in the process — but the result could never have been achieved by any other way." (Alan Davie quoted in The Tate Gallery Report 1972–1974, Tate Gallery London, 1975). The painting and board appear in very good condition with no sign of damage or paint loss. The edges of the board have very minor wear consistent with the age. The frame has age and has some wear.

Chillida, Eduardo -- Homenaje a PicassoAquatinta auf Arches-Velin. 1972.33,8 x 36,7 cm (76 x 57 cm).Signiert "Chillida", mit dem Künstlersignet sowie bezeichnet "E.(preuve d')A.(rtiste)".Van der Koelen 72016.Einer von 8 Künstlerabzügen außerhalb der Auflage von 186 Exemplaren, gedruckt von E. Arte und herausgegeben vom Propyläen-Verlag, Berlin. Chillidas graphisches Werk steht meist im Dialog zu seinen Skulpturen. Die zusammenhängenden schwarzen Formen bestehen aus schweren, breiten Balken. Noch sind sie eher kantig, ebenso wie die im Jahr 1972 von ihm errichtete monumentale Basaltskulptur "Campo Espacio de Paz II (Raumfeld des Friedens II)" in Lund. Einige Jahre später begann der gebürtige Baske mit der Arbeit an seiner wohl berühmtesten Skulptur "El peine del vieno" an den Klippen von San Sebastián. Es ist der Charakter des Metalls, dessen Oberfläche durch den Prozess verändert wird, die körnige Struktur der schwarzen Formen im Kontrast mit den hellen Flächen, durch die Chillidas Radierung "gewaltig" wirkt. Prachtvoller, intensiver Druck mit ausgeprägtem Relief, mit dem vollen Rand. - Wir bitten darum, Zustandsberichte zu den Losen zu erfragen, da der Erhaltungszustand nur in Ausnahmefällen im Katalog angegeben ist. - Please ask for condition reports for individual lots, as the condition is usually not mentioned in the catalogue.
