Angus was one of the few men that posed completely naked for Freud, and in fact one of the first ones to have done so. Freud made seven etchings of Angus, including the one presented here. This work closely relates to another two etchings made the year before in 1987, Naked Man on a Bed (state I), and Naked Man on a Bed (state II), albeit in the present version the focus is on the sleeper's head, emphasizing the infantile effects of sleep on a grown-up man's facial features, and wonderfully conveying Freud's liking for 'people to look as natural and as physically at ease as animals' (Lucian Freud, quoted in Feaver, Lucian Freud, 2002, pp.41-42).This is the first time an impression of this etching has come to the market since 2013.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

BARBARA HEPWORTH (1903-1975)The Aegean Suite The complete set of nine lithographs printed in colours, 1971, on wove paper, each signed and numbered 30/60 in pencil, printed by Curwen Studio, with their blindstamp, published by Marlborough Fine Art, London, the full sheets, with pale time and light-staining, the colours slightly attenuated but still good, in overall good condition, framedSheets 810 x 585mm. (31 7/8 x 23in.) (9)Footnotes:ProvenanceChristie's Contemporary Art, London, June 1976. Acquired directly from the above, thence by descent to the present owner. The Aegean Suite is one of only two major sets of lithographs completed by Barbara Hepworth during her lifetime. Although her graphic output was limited, she enjoyed printmaking as the intricacy of its layering process would allow her to develop ideas on space, abstraction, form and texture that she would later translate into her sculpture. Hepworth had started work on the suite in 1970 in St Ives, Cornwall, and completed it with master printer Stanley Jones at the Curwen Studio in London the following year. The apparent ease with which she combines the drawn line and the lithographic wash is a testament to her skills and dedication to the medium. The title and geometric forms choreographed across all nine works of the present set also convey the artist's fascination with the sites of antique Greece, while the abstracted suns and moons are reminiscent of her interest in the celestial; a theme she keenly explored in her graphic oeuvre. This complete set with all nine works presented in their original frames was purchased from Christie's Contemporary Art exhibition in June 1976 and are offered alongside the Christie's original Certificates of Authenticity, a brochure printed in colours about the prints, a typed letter by David Case introducing the June 1976 collection and the exhibition pricelists.The 1976 exhibition focused on Barbara Hepworth who had died the year before, presenting her alongside other contemporary printmakers, notably Julian Trevelyan and Dorothea Wight.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
After Fernand Léger (1881-1955)Visage à une main fond ocre (cf. Saphire 111) Painted and glazed ceramic relief, circa 1950, titled and numbered 124/250 with the 'Musée National F. LEGER_BIOT' stamp verso, France, in very good condition445 x 307mm. (17 1/2 x 12 1/8in.)Footnotes:Fernand Léger was a painter, printmaker and sculptor, who developed a strong visual language of shape and colour to interpret his view of modern life and is perhaps best known for his distinctive brightly coloured subjects outlined in black. He liked to experiment with other media including book illustrations, stained glass and ceramics. In 1949 he began working in collaboration with the ceramicist Roland Brice at Biot, near Antibes. Léger conceived the designs and Brice produced the moulds which were then shaped and coloured by Léger. The designs were partially inspired by motifs already used in his paintings and prints, with two favourite subjects being the circus and head of a woman. These two ceramic reliefs show his use of vibrant colours to contrast with the white glazed ceramic of the figures and black lines to emphasize the three dimensionality of the work. Shortly after Léger's death in 1955, his wife Nadia built the Musée national Fernand Léger in Biot, which now houses the French national collection of his work, including several ceramic pieces.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
Marc Chagall (1887-1985)Printemps au Pré, from Daphnis et Chloé (Mourlot 314; Cramer Books 46) Lithograph in colours, 1961, on Arches wove paper, signed and numbered 12/60 in pencil, printed by Mourlot, published by Tériade, Paris, the full sheet with a deckle edge at right and below, with minor light-staining, the colours still strong and vibrant, in good conditionImage 420 x 640mm. (16 1/2 by 25 1/4in.); Sheet 538 x 756mm. (21 1/4 x 29 3/4in.)Footnotes:Marc Chagall is recognised as one of the leading lithographers of the 20th century. The following collection highlights the artist's fascination with printmaking in Paris from the 1950s to the 1980s and his close collaboration with master printmaker Charles Sorlier and the Mourlot Studios.It was a fascination that mainly came about later in Chagall's career when he had reached the grand aged of 63. After returning to France in 1947, having escaped Nazi-occupied France for the United States six years earlier, he took up printmaking with the aid of both Atelier Mourlot director, Fernand Mourlot, and expert printmaker, Charles Sorlier. Sorlier would become Chagall's most important creative collaborator, assisting him in the Mourlot atelier. Together they would come to create an exceptional body of lithographic work, illustrating Chagall's most recognised and favourite subjects from matrimony, birds, animals and flowers to biblical scenes and the circus. Within this important private collection, assembled over two decades from Northern Germany, is offered a selection of prints from Chagall's first major colour portfolio, Daphnis et Chloé (Lot 33-42). The 42 lithographs that make up the vibrant book are based on the Greek poet, Longus' retelling of Daphnis and Chloé love story. Commissioned by one of the most important art publishers of the 20th Century, Tériade believe Chagall would be perfect at capturing a tale of love over adversity and he was not wrong. After a trip abroad and inspired by the light and landscape of the Greek islands he visited, Chagall returned to Paris with a series of preparatory studies to produce the portfolio with Sorlier. It has since come to be regarded as one of the most important and beautifully illustrated books of the last century – and a highlight of Chagall's storied career. As Chagall and Sorlier's relationship strengthened, Sorlier would evaluate the quality of the lithographs and numbering of the proofs, destroying any excess, after which Chagall would hand sign them. Devoted to the process and insistent upon rigorous standards, Chagall would work and rework the plates and colours until he was completely happy, standing with Sorlier at every step of the process. Sorlier once wrote 'the great integrity he invests in his work...requires that the plate bear my name each time he has not directly participated in the transcription to stone'. For this reason, most of the afterworks are signed by Marc Chagall and in the stone by Charles Sorlier. These so-called afterworks are currently some of the most valuable and sought after works of Chagall's entire artistic oeuvre (Lot 53-54). Such collaborations exemplify the close and harmonious bond between the artist and the master printer.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: * AR* VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.AR Goods subject to Artists Resale Right Additional Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
