GEORGE FREDERICK WATTS (ENGLISH 1817-1904) HAYSTACKS (STUDY ON BRIGHTON DOWNS) Oil on canvas 33.5 x 65.5cm (13 x 25¾ in.) Provenance: With the artist 1887 Given by the artist to Frederic, Lord Leighton His sale, Christie's, 14 July 1896 (3rd day), lot 343 Where bought by Sir William Agnew, Bt., for 290 gns Still with Sir William Agnew in 1905 Christie's, London, 11 June 2002, lot 118, where purchased by Robert Kime Exhibited: Grosvenor Gallery, London, 1883, no. 59, as Study on Brighton Downs Manchester, Royal Jubilee Exhibition, 1887, Fine Art Section, no. 249, as Haystacks, lent by the artist Royal Academy, London, Exhibition of Works by the late George Frederick Watts, R.A., O.M and the late Frederick Sandys, Winter 1905, no. 26, as Landscape, lent by Sir William Agnew City Art Gallery, Manchester, G.F Watts Memorial Exhibition, 1905, no. 148, as Landscape, lent by Sir William AgnewLiterature: Times, 30 April, 1883, p.4 Mrs Watts's Manuscript catalogue, vol. I, p.16 as Brighton Downs The present lot was painted in 1882 and exhibited the following year at the Grosvenor Gallery as Study on Brighton Downs, although the name Haystacks was already given to it when it was noticed briefly in a review in the Times, and Watts himself seems to have adopted this title later. No doubt the subject was one he had seen when travelling to or from the town, where he had a winter studio from 1876. Like so many of Watts's landscapes, Haystacks (Study on Brighton Downs) is astonishingly minimal. No other Victorian artist made more daring experiments of this kind; they are one of his work's most original aspects. Haystacks as a subject seem to have been a constant source of wonder and inspiration to Watts. The picture is reminiscent of Evening (Ashmolean Museum, Oxford), a small panel of 1864 in which he introduced some examples he had seen in the vicinity of Little Holland House, Kensington. However, unlike the Oxford picture which has overt literary associations; an armed knight is seen riding by, and the picture's alternative title, 'All the air a solemn stillness holds', taken from Thomas Gray's Elegy, this picture focuses attention on the haystacks alone. Characteristically though, Watts still manages to suggest a symbolist dimension. Stark as it is, the image has none of the objectivity of a painting of a haystack by for example, Monet. Watts must have thought highly of the picture to have sent it to the Grosvenor, and it was still in his possession when he lent it to the Royal Jubilee Exhibition at Manchester in 1887. He subsequently gave it to Sir Frederic Leighton, who had, according to Mrs Watts in her manuscript catalogue of her husband's works, 'admired' it. Leighton and Watts were not only close friends but neighbours in the artists' colony which had developed in the Holland Park area since the 1860s. When the picture appeared at Leighton's posthumous sale at Christie's in July 1896 it was bought by the dealer Sir William Agnew, who apparently wanted it for his own collection rather than stock. He still had it nine years later, when he lent it to the first two venues of the memorial exhibition which toured the country following Watts's death in 1904. Condition Report: The canvas has been lined with a new stretcher, but this is providing good supports and the paint layer is stable, and the old exhibition labels have been preserved. There is a diagonal surface scratch (approx. 4cm) to the upper right corner, and a very small spot of paint loss above it. Inspection under UV light reveals no visible signs of retouching, although the glaze layers and discoloured varnish do make it difficult to read under UV.Condition Report Disclaimer

ROBERT POLHILL BEVAN (BRITISH 1865-1925) THE COURTYARD AT SZELIWY Oil on canvas laid down on board 30 x 23.5cm (11¾ x 9¼ in.)Painted circa 1902-4.Provenance: Larkhall Fine Art A. Tilbrook, from whom purchased by Robert Kime The present lot 'The Courtyard at Szeliwy' was painted during one of the long summers spent visiting Stasia's family in Poland. The body of work produced during these trips was first exhibited in 1905 at Robert Bevan's first one-man exhibition at the Bailie Gallery. The strong and vibrant colour palette was met with some criticism and described in 'Black and White' on 8th March 1905 as 'garish'. However, Bevan was ahead of his British contemporaries and deeply influenced by Gauguin and the other 'fauvist' artists he had spent time with in Brittany. This new approach to painting which played with flat, patterned surfaces and bold vibrant colours was unseen on the London art scene which still regarded Monet as avant-garde.    Condition Report: Canvas is slightly slack. An area of craquelure to the green pigment in the lower right quadrant of the work. Inspection under UV reveals no obvious evidence of restoration or repair. Condition Report Disclaimer

Eugène Boudin, 1824 Honfleur – 1898 DeauvilleBOULOGNE-SUR-MER, LE PORT, 1891 – 93Öl auf Leinwand.45 x 65 cm.Rechts unten signiert und datiert.Wie ein Schiffsbug ragt der Kai in die Bildtiefe. Es ist fast keine menschliche Aktivität zu sehen. Lediglich eine auf dem Kai liegende Person ist zu sehen, die sich mit einer anderen Person auf einem Boot links unterhält. Reparaturarbeiten scheinen für den Moment still zu stehen oder abgeschlossen zu sein, wie die leer stehenden Holzböcke rechts im Vordergrund und das lose Tauwerk auf dem Boden bezeugen. Der Poller, an dem die Taue befestigt sind, bildet in seinem intensiven Schwarz einen visuellen Angelpunkt auf Höhe der Horizontlinie und befindet sich im Zentrum der Komposition. Von links und rechts laufen die Landzungen auf diesen Punkt zu. Besonders in der rechten Bildhälfte befinden sich imposamte Dreimaster, wobei das Schiff ganz rechts in Schräglage während einer Reparatur zu sehen ist und damit die Aktivität des Hafens verdeutlicht.Im äußersten Hintergrund sind die Vorzeichen des sich durchsetzenden Industriezeitalters zu sehen: mit der Rauchsäule aus dem Schlot eines Dampfschiffs, die in ihrer Höhe mit den Dreimastern rivalisiert. Der Maler erzeugt damit Temporalität durch Raumtiefe, indem sich im Hintergrund die Ablösung der Segelschiffe durch das Dampfschiff andeutet.Boudin, Zeitzeuge der Industrialisierung, zeigt auf dem vorliegenden Gemälde seine genaue Kenntnis der holländische Alten Meister der Seestücke, in deren Tradition das Bild steht. Besonders in der Behandlung des Himmels treten diese zum Vorschein. Als genauer Beobachter der Natur erzeugt er aber einen Bruch mit der Malerei des Goldenen Zeitalters, indem er das Dampfschiff mit seiner Rauchsäule in die Malerei einführt.Eugène Boudin gilt als einer der bedeutenden Vorläufer des Impressionismus. Zehnjährig zog Boudin mit seiner Familie nach Le Havre, wo er später Maler wie Constant Troyon (1810-1865), Jean François Millet (1814-1875) und Eugène Isabey (1804-1886) kennenlernte. Sie ermutigten ihn, sich als Maler selbst zu verwirklichen, worauf er 22-jährig sein Ladengeschäft aufgab und sich ausschließlich als erfolgreicher Maler betätigte. 1851 studierte er in Paris, bevor er mehrere Studienreisen in Europa unternahm. Zu seinen Malerkollegen und Freunden gehörten Gustave Courbet (1819-1877) und Claude Monet (1840-1926).

There is almost no human activity apart from one person lying on the pier, talking to another person in a boat on the lower left. Any kind of repairs seem to have come to a standstill or completed for the moment as the empty wood-horses in the foreground on the right and the loose ropes on the floor suggest. The ropes are tied to an intensely black cleat, which forms a visual focal point placed at the centre of the composition and on height of the horizon line. Impressive three mast ships are shown especially in the right half of the painting, with the ship furthest to the right tilted for repairs, highlighting the ports activities.Signs of the emerging Industrial Age show in the very background: a chimney from a steam boat with a column of smoke whose height rivals the three mast ships. By implying the sailing boats replacement by steamers in the background, the painter uses the depth of the painting to introduce the element of time.Boudin, a contemporary witness to the Industrial Age, shows his detailed knowledge of the seascapes of the Old Dutch Masters in whose tradition the present work stands, made particularly apparent by the way Boudin has painted the sky. However, as a close observer of nature, he breaks with the traditions of the Golden Age by introducing the steamer with its column of smoke to painting.

Frédéric Bazille, the French painter born in 1841, stands as an intriguing figure in the Impressionist movement, leaving a lasting imprint on the world of art despite his untimely demise. Renowned for his dedication to capturing the ephemeral effects of light, color, and atmosphere, Bazille's art encapsulates the essence of Impressionism. His close friendships with fellow artists like Monet, Renoir, and Sisley not only enriched his artistic journey but also fostered a collaborative and innovative spirit within the movement. Bazille's unique approach often intertwined figures with natural landscapes, blurring the lines between portraiture and outdoor scenes. His versatility is evident in the diverse range of subjects he tackled, from intimate portraits to leisurely gatherings. Although his career was tragically cut short by his untimely death at just 28 years old during the Franco-Prussian War, Bazille's legacy continues to thrive through his contributions to the evolution of modern painting and his enduring influence on the Impressionist movement.Measures 40 x 16.

Claude Monet (1840-1926) was a renowned French painter and one of the founders of the Impressionist movement. He was born in Paris and developed a passion for art at a young age. Monet is best known for his landscape and outdoor scenes, particularly his series of paintings depicting water lilies, haystacks, and the Rouen Cathedral. Monet's style was characterized by his innovative use of light and color, capturing the transient and atmospheric effects of nature. He often painted en plein air, working directly from nature to capture the changing qualities of light and atmosphere. This approach, along with his loose brushwork and emphasis on capturing the essence of a scene rather than precise details, was highly influential and marked a departure from the more traditional artistic conventions of his time. Monet's most famous works include "Impression, Sunrise" (which inspired the name of the Impressionist movement), "Water Lilies," "Haystacks," "Rouen Cathedral Series," and "Japanese Bridge." His art had a profound impact on the development of modern art and continues to be celebrated for its beauty and innovative approach. Monet's paintings are widely exhibited in museums and galleries around the world, and his legacy as one of the greatest painters of all time remains influential to this day.

Auguste Rodin (1840 Paris - 1917 Meudon) nachDenkmal für BalzacBronze, dunkel patiniert. Bez.; Verkleinerte Nachschöpfung des berühmten, imposanten Balzcac-Denkmals, Guss Anfang 21. Jh.; 1891 erhielt Rodin den Auftrag zum Denkmal von der Société des Gens de Lettres, 1898 stellte er in Paris das fast 3 m große Gipsmodell des Denkmals aus, das für Rodin die überwältigende, geistige Präsenz des Schriftstellers darstellen sollte. Die damaligen, konservativen Kritiker verrissen es, die meisten Besucher waren entsetzt, nur Künstlerkollegen wie Cézanne, Toulouse-Lautrec und Monet unterstützten ihn. Rodin lagerte das von der Société abgelehnte Gipsmodell daraufhin in seinem Wohn- und Atelierhaus in Meudon ein. 1939 wurde das Modell erstmals in Bronze gegossen und auf dem Boulevard du Montparnasse in Paris aufgestellt. Weitere monumentale Güsse befinden sich heute u. a. im Musée Rodin in Paris und im MoMA in New York. H. 63 cm.After August Rodin (1840 - 1917). Patinated bronze. Contemporary, early 21st C. cast, inspired by the monumental monument to Balzac.

His style can be characterized in the genre of landscape print, innovated by his early contemporary Hokusai (1760-1849). Hiroshige can be attributed to having created over 5,000 prints of everyday life and landscape in Edo-period Japan. Inspired by Katsushika Hokusai's popular Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji, Hiroshige took a softer, less formal approach with his Fifty-Three Stations of the Tokaido (1833-34), completed after a trip he made between Edo and Kyoto, which is acclaimed to be perhaps his finest achievement.He made numerous other journeys within Japan and issued a series of such prints, expressing in great detail the poetic sensibility inherent in the climate and topography of Japan and its people. Hiroshige's prolific output was somewhat due to his being paid very little per series. Still, this did not deter him, as he receded to Buddhist monkhood in 1856 to complete his brilliant and lasting One Hundred Famous Views of Edo (1856-58). He died in 1858, 10 years before Monet, Van Gogh, and a lot of Impressionist painters became eager collectors of Japanese art.Literature comparison: A near identical print is in the collection of The British Museum, Museum number 1915,0823,0.758. Another is in the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, accession number 21.5278.
