* PAT DOUTHWAITE (SCOTTISH 1939 - 2002),THE THIRD EYEpastel on paper, signed and dated '70image size 66cm x 50cm, overall size 93cm x 75cm Mounted, framed and under glass. Note: "She should no longer be seen as an exotic maverick but acknowledged as one of the true originals of Scottish art." A concluding comment on Pat Douthwaite’s 1993 solo exhibition, made by The Scotsman’s art critic Edward Gage. The ‘maverick’ label is often attached to Douthwaite to encompass a variety of the artist’s more striking traits: her troubled personality, the restless, nomadic lifestyle that took her across the world in search of subjects and meaning and her complete disregard for anything that did not further the development of her artwork, despite it making her a difficult figure to manage and work with. A good example is an incident in which she broke into a house and stole back one of her paintings from a buyer whom she did not consider worthy of owning her work. This demanding, uncompromising commitment and all-encompassing focus on her work paid off. She developed and sustained a distinctive, signature style characterised by raw feeling and idiosyncratic lines. Douthwaite was fascinated by historical heroines including Greek deities, Mary Queen of Scots and the aviator Amy Johnson and often depicted them as well as herself. Her images of women remain the most powerful and popular of her works, truly encapsulating the pain and suffering women can experience and endure. This exploration of suffering means there is a violence in the work, yet Douthwaite often manages to retain fun, playful touches in their execution. Born in Glasgow in 1934, Douthwaite’s first exposure to creative expression was in the form of dance classes at the dancing school run by Margaret Morris, the bohemian partner of the Scottish Colourist John Duncan Fergusson. She eventually discontinued dancing and decided, aged twenty-four and with no artistic training, to become a painter. Douthwaite showed her work to Fergusson, who recognised her talent and encouraged her endeavours, though he suggested she avoid art school, as he had done. Thus, both Morris and Fergusson had a major impact on Douthwaite’s creative endeavours. Douthwaite’s ever-present wanderlust quickly took over and she left Glasgow to join an artistic community within William Crozier’s house in East Anglia. An informal artistic training in itself, she was surrounded by fellow artists including Robert Colquhoun, Robert MacBryde and Crozier himself. In her lifetime, her work was recognised and championed by key figures in the Scottish art world; including Richard Demarco, who mounted her first major exhibition in Scotland in 1967; Douglas Hall, the former Director of the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art and the artist and critic Edward Gage. Following her death, her popularity continues to increase as ever more collectors are drawn to her distinctive, expressive style and tales of her mysterious, maverick personality. The prestigious Scottish Gallery (Edinburgh) have long promoted Pat Douthwaite's work and her most recent solo show "Pat Douthwaite, On The Edge" was staged by the gallery between 4th and 27th February 2021.Condition is good overall.

* SHEILA MACMILLAN DA PAI (SCOTTISH 1928 - 2018), GRAZALEMA (Andalucia, Spain)oil on card, signed and dated '05; titled and dated '29.9.05' versoimage size 46cm x 46cm, overall size 64cm x 64cm Framed and under glass.Note: Grazalema is a "white village" located in the northeastern part of the province of Cádiz, in the autonomous community of Andalucia, Spain. It is situated in the foothills of the Sierra del Pinar mountain range.Note: Sheila Macnab Macmillan was born in Glasgow in 1928. She attained a degree in Geography at Glasgow University and went on to train as a teacher. However, she had always painted and her talent was strongly encouraged by her uncle the distinguished Iain Macnab RE ROI (1890 - 1967) who persuaded Sheila to come to London and train under him. Iain Macnab had been Principal at Heatherley's Art School (1925 - 1940) and then went on to be founding Principal of the hugely influential Grosvenor School of Modern Art. Sheila's London influences and Glasgow School foundations evolved into a distinctive and individual style. She usually worked "en plein air" and her work is semi abstract. She focused mainly on landscape where her training as a geographer, allowed her to use her understanding of land formation, the delicate balance of the seasons and the interaction between Man and the environment. Her uncle's concept of "rhythm" is evident in Sheila's work and remained a constant throughout her career. She painted in Scotland, Spain. France and Italy and exhibited widely especially in Glasgow, Edinburgh, London and Newcastle. Her work appeared frequently at the Royal Scottish Academy, Royal Glasgow Institute, Paisley Art Institute annual exhibitions and at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition (London). She won numerous awards and prizes over a long and distinguished career. Recent examples of Sheila Macmillan's paintings in The Scottish Contemporary Art Auctions have included prices of £1700, £1400, £1100, £900, £850 & £800 (all hammer prices) which well illustrates the depth of collector interest in Sheila Macmillan's work.

* IAN HUGHES (SCOTTISH 1958 - 2014),LIGHT IS ONLY PRECIOUS DURING DARK INTERVALS (aka DANTE'S INFERNO I)oil on canvas, signed, titled versoimage size 77cm x 133cm, overall size 100cm x 156cm Framed.Label verso: Lynn Painter-Stainers Prize 2009.Note: Painter, art therapist, photographer and installations artist, born in Glasgow. Hughes studied at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art, Dundee, 1976–80. For much of the 1980s he chose to work with the mentally sick, in the art therapy department at Stobhill Hospital, Glasgow, then at Royal Edinburgh Psychiatric Hospital. He had his first one-man show at Andrew Brown's 369 Gallery, Edinburgh in 1985. Famously one of the seventeen artists in the landmark Vigorous Imagination Exhibition (1987) with four paintings, along with Howson, Currie, Wiszniewski, Conroy, Colvin, Mach, Braham, Gwen Hardie and others. In 1988–9 he was invited (above his peers) to be artist-in-residence at The Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, Edinburgh; had a major and celebrated solo show there in 1989 and in that year started to show widely on the continent. Multiple solo shows in London, Russia, Poland, France, Germany and Spain. Several large museums, as well as the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, hold twenty-seven examples of his work in the UK. Many more in prestigious public collections around Europe and in the US. Most of his paintings were deeply influenced by his time with the mentally troubled which can be disturbing but also staggeringly powerful. Hughes was an artist's artist and he worked with scant regard for what might be popular or "commercial". Some of his paintings took years to complete. Perhaps unsurprisingly at the time, his work was more popular in London and mainland Europe than it was in Scotland. Despite this, his work was admired greatly by art critics and his contemporaries, several of whom were his close friends. He won many of the major awards and prizes at public exhibitions in Scotland. Notable private collectors included Sean Connery, Peter Gabriel, Marti Pellow, Madonna, Bob Geldof and others. Known corporate collections include: Shell Investments, Standard Life, Coutts & Co, The Fleming Collection, The Rowett Research Centre and the BBC (Glasgow).Condition is good overall, with no visible signs of restoration, damage, or known issues.

* PETER GRAHAM ROI (SCOTTISH b. 1959),EVENING LIGHTSoil on paper, signedimage size 24cm x 37cm, overall size 37cm x 51cm Framed and under glass.Note: Peter Graham was born in Glasgow in 1959. He attended the Glasgow School of Art, graduating in 1980. In 2000 Peter was elected to Full Membership of The Royal Institute of Oil Painters, R.O.I. Peter has earned a reputation as one of Britain’s most gifted and distinctive Modern Colourists. His work is often related to the Modern Scottish School but Peter has a flamboyant style which is unique, – detailed brushwork combined with loose fluid strokes creating vibrant contrasts of pure colour, line and tone. In the winter months within his studio, he delves deeply into the still life genre, creating some of his most stunning compositions, always with colour as the dominant theme but reflecting the heightened sense of atmosphere and passion that comes directly from painting in the beauty of the Mediterranean. Recently, hugely successful exhibitions in London have allowed Peter to take on extra studio space and his work is being enthusiastically exhibited by many of the UK's most prestigious galleries. Peter Graham's paintings do not appear at auction frequently but Impressive recent auction prices include (a slightly larger example) "Decorations with Flowers" which was sold at McTear's in The Scottish Contemporary Art Auction for £2800 (lot 580, 26th May 2019).

A MODERN BELLIED WATER JUG GRAHAM STEWART, EDINBURGH 2015 of hand raised and planished baluster form with long tapered spout the handle of curved form with scrolling terminalDimensions:11.5cm high, 11.4ozNote: Note: Not only was Graham Leishman Stewart (1955-2020) one of Scotland’s foremost silversmiths of the late 20th and early 21st centuries, but he was also a master of hand engraving. The inspiration for his forms was mainly nature. He did not replicate what he saw, but it was organic and often intuitively so. He had great respect for words and was a devotee of the Irish bard Seamus Heaney. When he discovered Heaney’s favourite prose was the BBC’s Radio’s Shipping Forecast, this resulted in a series of bowls that have been much admired. He chose and arranged the almost hypnotic words of the Forecast with the flow of a poet. The series was expanded to other themes, the inspiration coming from poetry and Celtic spirituality. The engraving brought life to his bowls. Stewart established his workshop in Dunblane in 1978. He always worked with a small team of skilled craftsmen. His father, an industrial designer, was a leading influence in his life as he had a keen interest in silversmithing. His brother, an engineer, joined him when he retired which explains why Stewart used a hydraulic press, not a tool normally associated with silversmithing, for very large commissions.As visitors enter the Scottish Parliament, they are greeted with the Three Honours a large silver sculpture designed and made by Stewart. It is an impressive, intertwined creation with the three elements representing Scotland’s State Jewels, its crown, sceptre and sword, which are held in Edinburgh Castle. Arguably it has been one of the most viewed pieces of modern silver in Britain today. His commissions reflect the admiration and respect others had for him, including those commissioning the impressive claret jugs which are part of the Millennium Collection for Bute House. His shop in Dunblane provided a great opportunity to meet and chat with Stewart, allowing customers to grow their collections and acquire one-off pieces. With important pieces now included within numerous British institutions including the Aberdeen Museum and Art Gallery, as well as The Pearson Silver Collection (which is devoted to Post-War II British silver), his work is well represented in both public and private collections which supports his place a key contributor to modern Scottish and British silver.

The inspiration for his forms was mainly nature. He did not replicate what he saw, but it was organic and often intuitively so. He had great respect for words and was a devotee of the Irish bard Seamus Heaney. When he discovered Heaney’s favourite prose was the BBC’s Radio’s Shipping Forecast, this resulted in a series of bowls that have been much admired. He chose and arranged the almost hypnotic words of the Forecast with the flow of a poet. The series was expanded to other themes, the inspiration coming from poetry and Celtic spirituality. The engraving brought life to his bowls. Stewart established his workshop in Dunblane in 1978. He always worked with a small team of skilled craftsmen. His father, an industrial designer, was a leading influence in his life as he had a keen interest in silversmithing. His brother, an engineer, joined him when he retired which explains why Stewart used a hydraulic press, not a tool normally associated with silversmithing, for very large commissions.As visitors enter the Scottish Parliament, they are greeted with the Three Honours a large silver sculpture designed and made by Stewart. It is an impressive, intertwined creation with the three elements representing Scotland’s State Jewels, its crown, sceptre and sword, which are held in Edinburgh Castle. Arguably it has been one of the most viewed pieces of modern silver in Britain today. His commissions reflect the admiration and respect others had for him, including those commissioning the impressive claret jugs which are part of the Millennium Collection for Bute House. His shop in Dunblane provided a great opportunity to meet and chat with Stewart, allowing customers to grow their collections and acquire one-off pieces. With important pieces now included within numerous British institutions including the Aberdeen Museum and Art Gallery, as well as The Pearson Silver Collection (which is devoted to Post-War II British silver), his work is well represented in both public and private collections which supports his place a key contributor to modern Scottish and British silver.

§ PAUL NEAGU (ROMANIAN/BRITISH 1938-2004) HUMAN FOOT SHADOW, 1973 Signed, inscribed with title and dated '73 lower left, further inscribed 'Human Foot, 35 cells, GENERATIVE ART GROUP', mixed media on paperDimensions:39cm x 27cm (15.25in x 10.5in)Provenance:Provenance: Gifted by the artist to Silvia Radu and Vasile Gorduz, Romanian artists and close friends of Neagu (work bears inscription from Neagu to the pair verso); Gifted by Silvia Radu to the present ownerNote: Note: Paul Neagu’s legacy within the UK artworld is one of quiet but profound impact, with the generation of students he taught – Rachel Whiteread, Antony Gormley and Anish Kapoor (who authored his obituary), attesting to his influence on their own work. His artistic practice was underpinned by his personal philosophical theory of the world; a sophisticated if esoteric approach which, though valued by curators, institutions and centres of education here from the early stages of his career, was out of step with his contemporaries at the time.As a Romanian émigré, Neagu’s output inevitably had a cross-cultural outlook, and his sculpture, drawings and performances were underpinned by an exploration of the metaphysical, and can be described as straddling craft and conceptualism. Though these features distinguished him and set his work apart, it also meant he did not fit within the general trends in the British art world at this point, to the detriment of his standing amongst collectors of British sculpture today. Kapoor in his tribute remarks that, “…inevitably, he struggled against a British art world that preferred to see the artist as a maker of things rather than, as he saw it, art, and therefore the artist, as a generator of a philosophical world view.”Growing up in tough conditions behind the Iron Curtain, the young Neagu enrolled at the Bucharest Institute of Fine Art in 1963. Social Realism was the official visual language under the Communist regime, and so he was forced to make forays into abstraction in secret. These constraints ultimately led to the development of his core belief that art is an expression of 'desire in the face of the systems that attempt to inhibit it'. Throughout the 1960s he developed his ‘palpable objects’: construction-like box assemblages made out of humble materials and traditional Romanian woodworking techniques; a thread to his practise which he never abandoned and can be observed in the work offered here for sale, ‘Ongoing Hyphen’.His ticket to the West came in the form of an invitation from the now legendary art impresario Richard Demarco to exhibit at his gallery in 1969. A powerhouse behind the Edinburgh Art Festival, Demarco was extraordinarily outward looking for the time and made it his mission to discover and expose talent from Eastern Europe over in the West (other names he is responsible for championing include Marina Abramovich and Joseph Beuys). Neagu settled in the UK permanently in 1970, making London his home. Before long he became a well-respected teacher, most notably lecturing at the Hornsey, the Slade and the Chelsea School of Art, and in 1976 becoming Associate Professor at the Royal College of Art.His work encompassed aspects of performance as well as drawing and construction, and explored the relationship between ritualism and sculpture, as well as spirituality. Sculpture, as Neagu saw it, was to be experienced by all five senses and had the potential to have a profound, spiritual, and potentially healing impact on its audience. In order to convey these aims, he developed specific totemic symbols which he then continued to re-work over the course of his career.The first and most significant of these was the Hyphen form. As Kapoor describes, “…in 1975, Neagu made his first Hyphen - it started life as a three-legged workbench assembled somewhat in the folk tradition of Romanian furniture. Quickly Neagu understood the immense metaphysical potential of this tripod structure. From it he evolved a complete anthropocosmic view which, in parallel with Joseph Beuys in Germany and, previously, Yves Klein in France, suggested a spiritual remedy for the ills of contemporary man.” These reference points are notably European, again underpinning that Neagu’s process was something of an anomaly within the British art movements of the period. This though, as I alluded earlier, is to the advantage of discerning collectors with a more internationalistic outlook today, as his work remains accessibly priced.Lyon & Turnbull are pleased to offer for sale ‘On-going Hyphen’, from 1992. Crafted in some of Neagu’s traditional materials, wood and gesso, it represents a later iteration of the original hyphen form, which Neagu approached again with vigour in this year.We are also pleased to offer one of his ‘human cell’ drawings, ‘Human Foot Shadow’, from 1973 – a further aspect of his ‘Anthropocosmic’ concept which he developed in the early 1970s.In 2003 Tate Britain acquired Neagu’s 30-year archive and exhibited some of his work from the 1970s and 1980s, and his work can be found in public collections including, among others, the British Museum, London, le Fond départemental d'art contemporain, Seine Saint-Denis, Bobigny, France, the Hugh Lane Municipal Gallery of Modern Art, Dublin, the Musee Cantonal de Beaux Arts, Lausanne, Switzerland, the National Museum of Art of Romania, Bucharest, the Philadelphia Art Museum, Philadelphia, USA, and the Tate Gallery, London.
