Keith Jansz MFPA (b.1961)Studio Still Life with RosesSigned with initials CKJ (lower left)Oil on canvas47 x 37cm (framed) Horatio's garden will receive 100% of the hammer price on this lot. Two months after running the London Marathon for Barnardo’s in 1995, Keith Jansz broke his neck in a car accident which left him paralysed from the chest down. He spent six months in Stoke Mandeville Hospital, coming home to adjust to a new way of life. The gift of a book about the Mouth and Foot Painting Artists inspired him to start learning to paint by mouth and Keith progressed rapidly, surprising himself, painting in oils and sketching in pastel and charcoal. His style is influenced by his heroes the Impressionists, his work being reproduced around the world, and his paintings have been exhibited from Shanghai to Vienna, Mexico City to Copenhagen.

József Rippl-Rónai (Hungarian 1861-1927) Portrait of a Young Man Wearing a Cap signed (lower right), pastel on paper Dimensions:43cm x 31.5cm (17in x 12 3/8in) Provenance:ProvenancePrivate Collection, London. Note: ‘The Hungarian Nabi’: József Rippl-Rónai (1861–1927)József Rippl-Rónai’s lifetime work can be seen as an important articulation of a pan-European approach that incorporated elements of Art Nouveau, Fauvism, Expressionism and in particular the Post-Impressionist painters known as Les Nabis. Born in Kaposvár, Hungary in 1861, he studied at the Akademie der Bildenden Künste in Munich in 1884, before moving to Paris in 1887. There he continued his studies under the Hungarian Realist painter Mihaly Munkácsy then living in the French capital. By 1889 Rippl-Rónai made a brief visit to Pont Aven and soon cut ties with his earlier style embracing a new aesthetic buoyed by Paul Gauguin and his circle. He became friends with artists such as Aristide Maillol, Pierre Bonnard and in particular Édouard Vuillard whom he met at the Académie Julian in Paris. He joined the Nabis, whose influence can clearly be felt in his work.Rippl-Rónai returned to Hungary in 1902 and the current work dates from this early period back in his homeland, but continues to bear the impression of the Nabis, with a gentle intimacy and a fondness for decoration. Possibly a self-portrait, the painting is dated to 1905 and communicates his interest in materials and clothing. He believed that not only was the artist’s full body of work of importance, but also his public persona and mode of living, including the way he dressed. Rippl-Rónai’s Post-Impressionist tendencies, including his use of two-dimensional representation and contouring, continues with this portrait, as well as his playful use of a painting within a painting motif, a technique that can be seen in a number of his important works.The artist took part in public life throughout his career, including designing posters and tapestries and contributing to many successful exhibitions both at home and abroad, including those mounted in his home town of Kaposvár. Indeed, the current work bears the remains of a label which suggests an exhibition held there, which might relate to his solo shows of 1905 or 1913. After the World War One, Rippl-Rónai gave up oil painting in favour of pastels and his mastery of this medium reached its pinnacle with a series of portraits of literary friends. Rippl-Rónai’s continuing importance is that he succeeded in remaining a Hungarian artist who was faithful to his historical roots, whilst embracing modern art tendencies from his close associations with French artists linked to Paris at the turn of the century.

§ Colette Morey de Morand (Canadian/British 1934-2022) Stunning Streak, 1986 acrylic polymer and Caran D'Ache Neocolor oil pastel on paper Dimensions:76cm x 56.5cm (30in x 22 1/4in) Provenance:Provenance The Estate of the Artist Note: Colette Morey de Morand was born in Paris in 1934, to a French father and Ukrainian mother. Whilst she was an infant her family moved to Canada, where she was to spend her formative years. Whilst she always had designs on being an artist, her mother made her take a science degree at the University of Toronto as a more ‘sensible’ option. Morey de Morand, however, was not to be deterred and not long after graduating she moved to New Zealand, first studying at Wellington University and later establishing a reputation for herself as a landscape painter. Whilst in New Zealand she met Clement Greenberg, the high priest of Abstract Expressionism, an encounter that could well have been significant in her shift in direction towards abstraction, which she was to explore for the rest of her career.On separating from her first husband, Morey de Morand travelled overland through India and the Far East with her two young children, arriving in London in 1975, where she was to stay for the rest of her life – although she carried on showing in New Zealand, where her work continued to be highly regarded. She was soon ensconced in the London art scene – albeit the part of the scene that set itself against the prevailing fashion for Minimalism and Conceptualism. She had met Anthony Caro and his wife, the painter Sheila Girling, in New Zealand and they were to remain close friends throughout their lives. Both artists’ approaches at that time – loose, lyrical (even for Caro when working in heavy slabs of metal) – were to find confluences in her painting of the same period.

Edward Lear (British, 1812-1888)View of Janina watercolour and pastel29 x 45.5cm (11 7/16 x 17 15/16in).Footnotes:ProvenanceWith J. Leger & Son, London, 1959 (as Janina, Turkey). Private collection, UK.Ioannina (or Janina) which lies on Lake Pamvotis is part of modern day Greece, the major city of the province of Epirus. When Lear visited in 1848 it formed part of Albania but the area had been surrendered to the Ottomans in 1430 and remained under their rule until the early 20th century. One of the most recognisable landmarks of the town is the minaret and dome of the Fethiye Mosque which houses the tomb of Ali Pasha (1740-1822), ruler of the Pashlik of Ioannina. When in his 80s, his views and actions brought growing disapproval from the Ottomans who arrested him in 1822 at the St Panteleimon monastery on Lake Pamvotis, and killed him (see lot 11 for a portrait of Ali Pasha). The mosque and minaret, silhouetted on a promontory that extends into the lake, are at the very centre of Lear's composition in this watercolour.In 1848 Lear embarked on an impromptu sketching tour of Albania and Greece which took him from Salonica in the north, westwards to Corfu and down to Mount Olympus. He travelled very much off the beaten track with his manservant Giorgio, staying mostly at simple roadside khans where he regularly shared his quarters with farm animals. In luckier moments he enjoyed the hospitality of Turkish pashas or Greek dragomen. In his diary for 5 November 1848 he describes his dramatic approach to Ioannina: '..amid rolling thunder and flashing lightning did I gallop on, across the treeless level, till the sky cleared suddenly, and ... I saw from a slight eminence the lake of Yannina [sic] unexpectedly spread below me......There lay the peninsula stretching far into the dark grey water, with its mosque, its cypress tufts, and fortress walls; there was the city stretching far and wide along the water's edge; there was the fatal island, the closing scene of the history of the once all-powerful Ali.' He stayed in unaccustomed luxury at the British Consulate, remarking 'After the khans and horrors of upper Albania, the spacious and clean rooms at the Vice-Consulate were delightful to repose in; and newspapers, letters, joined with all kinds of comfort, suddenly and amply atoned for all by-gone toils and disagreeables.'A similar view by Lear, taken from a point closer to the town, is in the Derby Collection at Knowsley.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
