Avinash Chandra (1931-1991) Untitled (Paths) Pen and ink, 1959, signed and dated in black ink, on tissue-thin wove paper, sheet 498 x 373mm (19 5/8 x 14 3/4in) Provenance: Collection of the Late William G. and Mildred Archer; thence by descent. Lot Essay Avinash Chandra was born in Simla, India. He studied at the Delhi Polytechnic Art School between 1947-1951, and achieved early recognition for his work. Aged just twenty-one, he held his first solo exhibition at the Delhi Silip Chakra from which one of his paintings was acquired by Museum of Modern Art, Delhi. In 1955, Chandra married Prem Lata, and when she was awarded a scholarship to study at the Central School of Art in London, Chandra moved with her. The works in this sale date between 1959-60, these were critical years in the artist's development when Chandra spent a significant period living in Belfast and began to implement brighter colours and greater abstraction. It was particularly Chandra's application of vibrant inks and wash (see lots 66 and 67), and the presence of compelling mystical figures, that struck a note with collectors. While exhibiting at the Molton Gallery, London, one of his works was acquired by the famous tenor, Sir Peter Pears. Wide critical acclaim followed, in 1962 the BBC broadcast a dedicated documentary (Art of Avinash Chandra) and in 1965, Chandra's 'Hills of Gold' (1964) became the first work by an Indian-British artist to be acquired by the Tate. His career continued to flourish and throughout his life Chandra exhibited widely, including at major museums including Hayward Gallery and Manchester City Gallery. Indian scenery and heritage remained an important reference point for the artist, as is evidenced in these pen and ink drawings, which bear resemblance to his mid-1950s paintings of Pahalgam, a hill station in Jammu and Kashmir. This work comes to us from the collection of William G. and Mildred Archer. Archer was an expert on Indian poetry, culture and art. Born in 1907, he worked for the Indian Civil Service from 1931 until 1947. Between 1949 and 1959, he worked as the Keeper of the Indian Section at the Victoria & Albert Museum, London.

Damien Hirst (British, b1965) Death of God, Galeria Hilario Galguera, 2006 Lithograph printed exhibition poster Signed by artist Measures approx. 59.5cm × 84 cm (23 2/5" × 33 1/10") Damien Hirst (British, b 1965), a poster boy for the Young British Artists who rose to prominence in late 1980s London, is one of the most notorious artists of his generation. He has pushed the limits of fine art and good taste with sculptures that comprise dead animals submerged in formaldehyde; innumerable spot paintings that appear mass-produced and can sell for millions of dollars; and the exuberantly tacky For the Love of God (2007), a human skull studded with 8,601 diamonds. Through his installations, sculptures, drawings, and paintings, Hirst explores themes including religion, mortality, and desire. Since 1988, when the artist developed and curated “Freeze,” a groundbreaking exhibition of his work and that of his Goldsmiths College peers, he has been the subject of major shows at Tate Modern in London, the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. In 2008, Hirst controversially staged “Beautiful Inside my Head Forever,” an auction in which he sold his work directly to the public and raked in around $200 million for himself. His individual works have sold for more than $10 million at auction.

BENJAMIN VAN DE GUCHT (BRITISH 1753-1794) PORTRAIT OF DAVID GARRICK Oil on canvas, feigned oval Signed and dated '1768' (middle left) 55.5 x 44cm (21¾ x 17¼ in.) Provenance: (Possibly) the estate of David Garrick and left to his friend Bartleman Sale, Sotheby's, London, 17 June 1981, lot 61 R. & J. Jones, London Mr Reauvier Mrs Marsden Sale, Bloomsbury Auctions, New York, 'The Paula Peyraud Collection, 6 May 2009, lot 104. Sold Stair Galleries, New York, 30 April 2016, lot 417. Benjamin van der Gucht (1753-1794) was a close friend of David Garrick and painted him on multiple occasions. His posthumous auction `The Property of The Late David Garrick', by Mr. Christie, 23 June 1823, included lot 7, 'V.D. Gucht Portrait of a Gentleman, and Portrait of an old Lady in oils'. The artist was the thirty-second child of the engraver Gerard van der Gucht and studied at St Martins and the Royal Academy. An accomplished painter he was also a successful art dealer and restorer, building an art gallery in Upper Brook Street in 1776. Van der Gucht specialised in painting theatrical scenes and portraits of actors and received significant patronage from the great actor and stage manager (indeed, he once went on a buying trip for Garrick and his wife in Holland and Paris). This portrait is an oval rendition of a threequarter length portrait painted in 1764 by Pompeo Batoni (1708-87), held in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford (WA1845.61). Garrick travelled to Italy in 1763-1765 and like many that went on the Grand Tour had his portrait painted by Batoni as a gift for Richard Kaye in exchange for an antique gem that Kaye had found at the Baths of Caracalla. Garrick is holding an illustrated edition of Terence's 'Comedies' (1736) open at the page showing masks for the Andria copied from a manuscript in the Vatican Library Transcending his modest provincial origins, David Garrick (1717- 1779), the high-spirited, ambitious lad from Lichfield morphed into a theatrical icon, dominating the London stage as a naturalistic and engaging actor for three decades. Later, as the commanding manager of Drury Lane, Garrick was at the epicentre of theatrical debates and cultural politics. Besides his dramatic genius and versatility as an actor, what made Garrick exceptional was the extraordinary scope of his artistic and literary achievements, his professional and social status, and his international celebrity. A theatrical superstar who elevated the art of acting and professionalised the English stage, Garrick was also a talented dramatist poet, artistic patron and collector. After his magnificent state internment in Poets' Corner in Westminster Abbey, Edmund Burke's epitaph encapsulated Garrick's cosmopolitanism, literary talents, and lifelong devotion to Shakespeare: 'Shakespeare was the chosen object of his study: in his action, and in his declamation he expressed all the fire, the enthusiasm, the energy, the facility, the endless variety of that great poet. Like him he was equally happy in the tragic and comic style. He entered into the true spirit of the poets, because he was himself a poet, and wrote many pieces with elegance and spirit. He raised the character of his profession to the rank of a liberal art, not only by his talents, but by the regularity and probity of his life and the elegance of his manners.'[1] Key to his success, Garrick possessed a genius for self-promotion and a mastery of image-making which set him apart from his contemporaries. His features widely disseminated in multiple mediums, thus amplifying his cultural pre-eminence, posthumous reputation and arguably birthing modern celebrity culture
