Aaron Bohrod (American/Wisconsin, 1907-1992), "Silver Horse, Golden Horse", 1977, oil on panel, signed lower right, titled and dated on artist label and handwritten inscription "Bradley Galleries - June 1977" en verso, 8 in. x 10 in., framed; accompanied by copy of Bradley Galleries, Milwaukee, WI receipt and The Milwaukee Journal article "Bohrod Wizardry, at 70, He's Still Fooling the Eye", Feb. 5, 1978. Provenance: Bradley Galleries, Milwaukee, WI, 1977; thence by descent. Note: The 1950s marked a shift in Aaron Bohrod’s artistic style. While originally employing much looser brushstrokes and focusing on grander scenes of quintessential American life, Bohrod shifted to the tight precision of trompe l’oeil paintings, a style he was so successful at executing that his works would often be accompanied by insistent “do not touch” signs when on exhibition. In the lot presented here, Bohrod’s exquisite attention to detail is on full display in the crisp quality of this trompe l’oeil still life of two toy horses. The work is almost photographic in terms of composition, with a close crop on the figures pinned amongst paint blobs and cutout graphics, the whole of which coalesces into a cryptic shrine invoking childhood and its associated frivolity.

George Bauer Dunbar (American/New Orleans, b. 1927), "Untitled", 1960, clay, silver leaf and mixed media on board, signed and dated en verso, 11 in. x 11 in., original frame. Note: After World War II, while studying in art in Philadelphia during the week, George Bauer Dunbar would spend his weekends in New York surrounded and influenced by the likes of Jackson Pollock, Franz Kline, and Willem de Kooning. “He wanted his art to possess a sense of tactility and manifest a reverence for organic materials that he did not see in the art of the New York School. Dunbar discovered that through natural materials like metal and clay, he could take Pollock’s drips and dribbles of paint and Kline’s stark calligraphic abstractions, and give them their own sentience.” Dunbar took what he learned in Philadelphia and New York and brought it back to New Orleans, where he joined forces with other like-minded local artists such as Lin Emery and Robert Helmer to form the Orleans Gallery, which is credited with introducing abstract and contemporary art to the region. Dunbar, in particular, excelled in melding local aesthetics with what was at the time a national art movement. “His gilded abstractions brought unfamiliar art terms into the fold of New Orleans art, and did so in a way that blended seamlessly with New Orleans’ stately historical homes and heavily patinated local portraiture.” It is his focus on texture and the idea of chance throughout his artistic career that has driven an interesting evolutionary arc in his works: starting out with the gilded layered clay pieces from the 1950s and 60s, then moving on to his highly improvised rag series and clay torso reliefs, all the while punctuated by his perfectly smooth and technical geometric clay surfaces. In the lots offered here, we are treated to a veritable mini-retrospective highlighting several milestone eras in Dunbar’s long and prolific oeuvre.

Wendt, who produced some of the finest silver of his day, had a special relationship with Ball, Black & Co., much like that of John Chandler Moore with Tiffany & Co. Wendt did not use a maker's mark. Wendt is thought to be the originator of die-stamped "Medallion" flatware: the 1862 U.S. design patent 1580 was issued in his name. The Wendt flatware features variations in the medallion portraits, as also seen on this coffee and tea service. Ref.: Soeffing, D. Albert. Silver Medallion Flatware. pgs. 12-13, 76-78 and 98-99.
