He painted them to understand tonal gradation whilst he was a second year student at the Government College of Art & Craft.

He has held over 81 solo exhibitions and his works have been exhibited in galleries worldwide that include Australia, London, Singapore, USA, Hong Kong, France, Switzerland and Germany to name a few. He has been bestowed with numerous awards including the Padma Shri in 2014, India's forth highest civilian honour. His works are featured in several private and public collections, some of which include the British Museum, London, National Gallery of Modern Art, New Delhi and the Rubin Museum of Art, New York.'..the college was a stickler for tradition and insisted on a mastery over watercolour landscapes... It is a tradition...how they teach you compositions and outdoor studies at the Government Art College, 90-95 per cent of which is based on watercolours... we began with pencil drawings...and the college can prove exhausting for those who don't get a nuance exactly right - 'then graphite, followed by, watercolours.'

Jamil Naqsh (Pakistani, 1939-2019)Portrait of Ali Imam signed and dated 'Jamil Naqsh/12th Sept.79' lower rightwatercolour on paper, framed44.8 x 52.3cm (17 5/8 x 20 9/16in).Footnotes:AN IMPORTANT WORK DEPICTING ALI IMAMProvenanceAcquired from the Indus Gallery in Karachi in the 1990s;Sotheby's, New York 16/03/17 Lot 151;Acquired by the vendor from the above.ExhibitedPasadena, California, Pacific Asia Museum, A Selection of Contemporary Paintings from Pakistan, 1994 LiteratureM.N. Sirhandi, A Selection of Contemporary Paintings from Pakistan, by D. Kamansky, Pacific Asia Museum, Pasadena, California, illustration p. 91Collectors of Naqsh's paintings will be familiar with his skilful representations of nudes, pigeons and horses. He was a prolific artist whose works continue to be admired and sold. To see examples of his works sold in these rooms, see Bonhams, Islamic and Indian Art, London, 11th June 2020, lot 249 and Modern & Contemporary South Asian Art & Art of Pakistan, London, 24th October 2018, lot 123.What however, is not well known is that away from the emphasis on voluptuous nudes and preening pigeons, Naqsh created a corpus of work that focused away from his usual norm. This included male nudes and an acknowledgement of his debt to individuals who had helped him along the way. The work on offer in this auction is one such rare work and pays homage to Ali Imam, the pioneering gallerist in Pakistan who established Indus Gallery in Karachi in 1971 and who was instrumental in patronizing and promoting an entire generation of Pakistani artists amongst them Ahmed Parvez and Bashir Mirza.Ali Imam was the older brother of Syed Haider Raza, the renowned Indian painter (1922-2016); while both were born in India, both brothers left India shortly after independence, Ali to Pakistan in 1949 and Haider for France in 1950.Besides being a gallerist, Ali Imam was a painter in his own right and his works have been sold in these rooms. To see a recent example see Bonhams, Modern and Contemporary South Asian Art, London, 24th May 2022, lot 53.This painting is a tribute by Naqsh to Ali Imam for the gallerist's help in recognizing his skill early on and helping him establish himself in the Pakistani art scene. Imam's posture is reminiscent of Adam in Michelangelo's Creation of Adam and illustrates the importance of Imam in Naqsh's life. Painted after Imam's open heart surgery, it documents a period in the history of Pakistan when the patronage of art was being accepted as a civilizing aspect in the country's consciousness.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Zubeida Agha (Pakistani, 1922-1997)Untitled (Cityscape) signed 'Zubeida Agha 46' lower leftoil on canvas, framed32 x 55.1cm (12 5/8 x 21 11/16in).Footnotes:CELEBRATING ZUBEIDA AGHA'S BIRTH CENTENARYProvenanceThe Collection of Imran R. Sheikh; family of the artist.ExhibitedLondon, Bonhams, Zubeida Agha, 2022, No. 1 PublishedSalima Hashmi for Bonhams, Zubeida Agha: Celebrating an Extraordinary Career, 2022, p.1, No.1A very rare early work by Zubeida Agha, it establishes her ability to respect and enhance the two-dimensionality of the canvas. Part of the Agha family collection, it hints at the vision that will eventually define Zubeida Agha's body of work. In the late 1940s, during the tumult of Partition, many homes were looted in the riots and artworks destroyed. This work, possibly because of its location, survived unscathed. Informally titled Cityscape, the simplified architectural forms suggest the mohalla, a neighbourhood familiar to the artist. There is no attempt to imply deep space, the buildings are defined in flattened, spatial relationships, woven into a composite whole and unfolded across the canvas. The modulated tonal variations and colours suggest a continuity to the city, beyond the limits of the given space. As a young painter, Agha was carefully assembling the forms and assigning them roles as clusters in the city neighbourhood.Art historian Iftikhar Dadi viewed Zubeida Agha as 'an independent painter who stubbornly charted her own trajectory without much influence from other artists or artistic trends.' (Iftikhar Dadi, Modernism and the Art of Muslim South Asia, 2010, p.113) She must have been mindful of the audiences of her time and the preference for more recognisable 'pictures' and the picturesque. She chooses instead to design the image in terms of a flowing line which orchestrates a security of purpose, a mature work for a young painter.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ** VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

A stuffed tench by Griggswith rare Griggs label and dated 1923 37cm high by 60cm wide This piece comesfrom the period before Griggs purchased the Cooper business, when he wasworking under his own name.William (Bertie) Griggs (1884 - 1953) and Lionel Griggs (1915 -1984)Bertie (as he generally came to be known) Griggs is usually regarded as theman who took antique fish taxidermy to its highest level and his work today ishighly sought after, as is that of his son Lionel. Although in business underhis own name for many years, Bertie is best known for the fact that he tookover the famous old firm of Cooper's during the early 1930s. Such was theprestige of the Cooper name that although Bertie Griggs now owned the companyhe continued to label his cases 'J. Cooper and Sons' even though everythingproduced was his work.After Bertie's death during 1953, his son Lionel continued the businessusing the same high standards that he had learned from his father. The businesslasted for several years producing top quality cases but by 1960 taxidermy wasin the doldrums, and in 1962 it was decided to close the doors forever.Natural History, Taxidermy, Fishing

POP MUSIC, rare early pre-production booklet Pink Floyd - The Wall" Movie Promo Book. The film's original format was to be comprised of footage of the band playing live at Earls Court in London, with animation by political cartoonist and illustrator Gerald Scarfe spread throughout the film. Director Alan Parker found the concert footage to be unusable, and Roger Waters wasn't suitable as an actor, replacing him with Bob Geldof. "This presentation is a visual aid to understanding both how the film will be made and how it will look when finished. Of the drawings that follow some are stills from animation already completed but the majority are impressions of live action selected from the script. Alongside the drawings are presented the lyrics of the song which carry the story line as the film is largely mute; and short extracts from the script as clarification.
