She joined the London Group in 1922, where she met the Belgian brothers Gustave and Léon De Smet, apparently declaring that 'English art then bored me to tears'. In 1926 she moved to Paris and changed her name, as a tribute to the Romanesque basilica in the town of the same name in Burgundy, residing there until the outbreak of war. At the time the present work was executed, Vézelay was in an intense relationship with the surrealist André Masson whose ideas and creativity influenced her greatly. In the early 1930s she became one of only a few British members of Abstraction-Création and began a long working relationship with Jean Arp and his wife Sophie.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ARAR Goods subject to Artists Resale Right Additional Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

English School, late 18th century ‘ Portraits of the Reverend Dr Durand Rhudde and his brother Anthony Rhudde, a pair, bust length, pastel, oval, 26 x 20cm (2) Provenance: Gilding's, Market Harborough, July 13, 2010, £423 The Revd Durand Rhudde, DD (1734-1819), Rector of East Bergholt, Suffolk and Chaplain in Ordinary to King George III. A wealthy and controlling man, Rhudde was strongly opposed to the proposed marriage of his granddaughter Maria Bicknell to the artist John Constable on the grounds that Constables father and he had quarrelled, Maria's family were socially superior whereas the Constable's were 'trade' and John Constable was a friend of an atheist. When they eventually married, in spite of his long hostility to the union, in 1816, Rhudde accepted the fact and was to bequeath Maria Constable £4000 on his death three years later. Rhudde married Mary Shergold (1738-1811). Their daughter Harriet married Edward Farnham of Quorndon, Leicestershire. His brother Anthony (1738-1816) lived at Uttoxeter House, Uttoxeter, Staffordshire Both in good unrestored condition, long undisturbed in what are possibly the original giltwood mounts and giltwood and composition frames, each with later engraved brass tablet

Albert Marquet 1875–1947 Boulogne dans la brume, 1930 Öl auf Leinwand unten links signiert marquet 60,2 x 81,4 cm Provenienz: Albert Marquet, ParisGalerie Druet, Paris (14.10.1930 direkt beim Künstler erworben)Jacques Guenne (23.7.1938 bei obiger Galerie erworben)Privatsammlung, Genf (1949)Hans Angehrn-Bechtler, ThalwilPrivatbesitz, Schweiz (durch Erbschaft an die heutigen Besitzer) Ausstellung: Sammlung Geschwister Bechtler, Winterthur, Kunstmuseum, 19.8.–30.9.1956, Kat.-Nr. 74, mit Abb. Das Werk wird vom Wildenstein Plattner Institut, Paris, in das sich in Vorbereitung befindende digitale Werkverzeichnis der Werke von Albert Marquet aufgenommen. Eine Echtheitsbestätigung vom Wildenstein Plattner Institut, New York, vom 7.6.2021 liegt vor. Boulogne dans la brume zeigt einen Ausschnitt des Hafens von Boulogne-sur-Mer in der Region Hauts-de-France. Es ist ein Beispielbild der Werke aus Marquets späterer Schaffensphase, in der er seinen Fokus vermehrt auf zurückhaltende Farben und einen linearen Stil legte.Der Betrachter blickt von einem erhöhten Punkt auf ein Hafenbecken, während die Stadt im Hintergrund im Dunst des regnerischen Wetters verblasst. Das Bild ist zum grössten Teil in ebenfalls blassen Pastellfarben gemalt und wird nur punktuell durch kontrastreiche Blau-, Grün-, Rot- oder Gelbtöne durchbrochen. Der Hafen als zentrales Bildthema taucht bei Marquet immer wieder auf und scheint ihn über die Jahre hinweg zu begleiten. Auch auf seinen Reisen nach Deutschland, Skandinavien oder Nordafrika hielt er immer wieder Szenen mit fliessenden Gewässern fest.Boulogne dans la brume montre une partie du port de Boulogne-sur-Mer, dans la région des Hauts-de-France. C’est un bel exemple de la dernière période de Marquet, dans laquelle il utilise une palette de couleurs sobres et un style linéaire.Le spectateur observe le bassin portuaire depuis un point élevé, tandis que la ville à l’arrièreplan se fond dans la brume d’un temps pluvieux. Le tableau est peint pour l’essentiel dans des couleurs pastel pâles ponctuellement relevées par des touches plus contrastées de bleu, de vert, de rouge ou de jaune. Le port, en tant que thème pictural central, apparaît à plusieurs reprises dans l’oeuvre de Marquet et semble l’accompagner au fil des ans. Cette fascination pour l’eau et sa représentation l’accompagnera toujours notamment lors de ses voyages en Allemagne, en Scandinavie ou en Afrique du Nord.

Artist: Wifredo Lam (Cuban, 1902 - 1982). Title: "Composicion". Medium: Mixed media (Gouache, pastel, and crayon) on paper. Date: Composed 1973. Dimensions: Overall size: 16 1/8 x 12 in. (410 x 305 mm).Lot Note(s): Signed and dated, lower right. Tan wove paper. Very good to fine condition. Provenance: Through the artist Max Ernst; Private collection, Vera Cruz, Mexico. Comment(s): Our example undoubtedly removed from a sketchbook. Lam, like many of the most renowned artists of the 20th century, combined radical modern styles with the "primitive" arts of the Americas. While Diego Rivera and Joaquin Torres-Garcia drew inspiration from Pre-Columbian art, Lam was influenced by the Afro-Cubans of the time. He dramatically synthesized Surrealist and Cubist strategies while incorporating the iconography and spirit of Afro-Cuban religion. Image copyright © The Estate of Wifredo Lam. [30170-3-5000]
