A Northern French or possibly Mosan polychrome painted limestone Sedes Sapientiae, probably 14th/early 15th century, the fragmentary, draped Virgin portrayed on a stylised throne and balancing the Christ Child, wearing a tunic, on her knees, on a rectangular section plinth with indistinct inscription, 36cm high overallThis frontal, formal portrayal of the Virgin with the Christ Child standing on her knees has its roots in Byzantine iconography. Statues of the Virgin seated on a Solomonic throne were part of French liturgical practice, and are often executed on a smaller scale so they could be moved and carried.The heavy folds of the draperies and incorporation of a low-backed chair shares similarities to examples from the Meuse valley, note for example Sotheby's London, 9 July 2015, lot 9 (in oak).For further reading on this iconographic type, mainly centred on wood sculpture though citing some examples in stone, please see I. H. Forsyth, Throne of Wisdom, Princeton University Press, 2019.Condition Report: Fragmentary, some losses to finish, old repairs.Plaster repair to rear of socle.Lacking heads.Condition Report Disclaimer

Nevill Johnson (1911-1999) Kilkeel (c.1946) Oil on canvas, 40 x 60cm (16 x 24'') Signed with monogram; inscribed verso Kilkeel was probably included in the first exhibition Nevill Johnson took part in with Victor Waddington in 1947, soon after he was taken on as a gallery artist. It belongs to a small group of paintings in which Johnson included the most appropriate of the driftwood, shells and stones he collected in the mid-1940s from the shores of Lough Neagh. Their arrangement suggests unease or struggle between these anthropomorphic forms into which human and animal life has been mutated by some apocalyptic event. Painted in response to the Second World War, this group of works also express a more profound consciousness of the fears and despair of the atomic age. This is the existential psychological landscape of the post-war world, at the edge of sea and land and illuminated in a mysterious, nocturnal glow, and there is an interesting comparison with Francis Bacon in the blurred, turning profile of the left-hand 'head' of the large driftwood form. S.B. Kennedy wrote of Johnson's paintings in this period that 'along with Jack B. Yeats' Tinker's Encampment: The Blood of Abel, 1940, Kenneth Hall's Après la Guerre and Middleton's Our Lady of Bikini [they] are amongst the most poignant images of war and its effects painted by any artist in Ireland in the modern period'. (S.B. Kennedy, 'Irish Art and Modernism 1880-1950', Irish Academic Press, Queen's University, Belfast, p.139) Dickon Hall

Daniel O'Neill (1920-1974) Horseman Pass By Oil on board, 51 x 69cm (20 x 27¼'') Signed; inscribed verso Provenance: Purchased from the artist in 1971 by George and Maura McClelland; sold privately c.1980; The Irish Sale, Sotheby's, 21st May 1999, Lot 365; Sale, Whyte's, 26th April 2005, Lot 69. Exhibited: 'Daniel O'Neill: Recent Paintings', Dawson gallery, Dublin, 12-31 May 1971. Literature: 'Daniel O'Neill (1920-1974): Landscape and Figure Painter', by Gena Lynam, Irish Arts Review, Volume 15, 1999, Page 141. Illustrated in new monograph on artist 'Daniel O'Neill Romanticism & Friendships' by Karen Reihill Fig. 320 Page 151. (Available to purchase at reception.) Daniel O'Neill was a largely self-taught artist, beginning his journey by experimenting with watercolours at the age of fifteen. He educated himself in Art History, researching the Renaissance through reference books in his local library. In the 1940s, O'Neill took up work as an electrical engineer with the Belfast Corporation Transport Department. This provided him with an opportunity to work night shifts, leaving him free to paint during the day. In 1945, this demanding timetable came to an end when O'Neill was offered a contract by gallerist Victor Waddington. O'Neill gladly ceased work as an electrician and turned to art fulltime. Waddington presented Daniel O'Neill's first solo show in 1946 with great success. With a high sale rate, O'Neill was firmly established as one of Ireland's great upcoming artists. In 1958, O'Neill moved to London. He continued to work and exhibited largely in Montreal through the Waddington Gallery. Optimising on his strong international market, Daniel O'Neill's name began to fade from the Irish art scene. However, in 1970, George McClelland convinced O'Neill that it was time for him to return. The Belfast that he now encountered was not the same as the one he had left twelve years earlier. The underlying tensions had been given full reign to ravage the city as the Troubles spread fear and violence through the streets. Against this backdrop, O'Neill maintained his artistic drive, re-entering the Irish market through a one-man exhibition which opened on May 12th 1971. Thirty-two works were presented, amongst which was 'Horseman, Pass By'. The show brought acclaim from critics, many of which were pleasantly surprised by O'Neill's bold use of colour which contrasted so greatly to the sombre tones of the 1950s. In particular, the current lot was picked out by The Irish Press for its 'atmosphere' and 'mystery'. With an eye for remarkable pieces, the work was purchased at the time by George and Maura McClelland. Despite its colourful disposition, 'Horesman, Pass By' reads as lament on mortality. The title itself is borrowed from the poem 'Under Ben Bulben' by W.B. Yeats, a piece in which the poet finishes by describing his own resting place. Yeats implores any visitors to the spot to Cast a cold eye / On life, on death / Horesman, pass by!. These lines are now immortalised as his epitaph. Given the political climate against which this work was produced, it is hard not to read the painting as a cry for a dying Belfast. Striding through the centre of the piece a man, possibly a self-portrait of O'Neill, sits atop a white horse. This horse is resemblant of the white charger often pictured alongside William of Orange and, thus, is a direct connection to Belfast's religious apartheid. Led by a faceless woman, perhaps the representation of artistic muse, the horse and rider move past the city and the skeleton that keeps guard. Staring directly ahead the man seemingly shows a stoic indifference to what is around him, however, the firm set of the jaw belies the exertion that it costs to do so. As is characteristic of his works, O'Neill utilises the landscape in this piece to depict the concerns of the central figure. The city, which he leaves behind, is lit up, emphasising its importance in this saga. To the front of the rider, a shadowed wood awaits, beckoning him forth into an unknown. It is up to the viewer to decide this horseman's fate. By Ciaran MacGonigal
