William Kentridge (born 1955)Colonial Landscape - Waterfall, 1995-1996 signed 'KENTRIDGE' (lower right)charcoal and pastel on paper 122 x 160cm (48 1/16 x 63in).Footnotes:ProvenanceGoodman Gallery, Johannesburg, South Africa;Private Collection, London;Acquired from the above by the current owner.ExhibitedRome, Cittá/ Natura: mostra internazionale di Arte Contemporanea' , 21 April - 23 June, 1997.LiteratureCarolyn Christov-Bakargiev, William Kentridge, (Brussels: Société des Expositions du Palais des Beaux-Arts de Bruxelles, 1998), p. 182 (illustrated)William Kentridge, 1997, CD-ROM, (Johannesburg: David Krut Publishing, reproduced along with various images of drawings and graphics)The present lot is one of several drawings created by William Kentridge between 1995-1996 for his Colonial Landscape series. The series came after the theatre production, Faustus in Africa (1994), where Kentridge looked at depictions of Southern African landscapes in the era of colonisation. For example, the 1891 publication Africa and Its Exploration: As Told by its Explorers by Mungo Park, David Livingstone and others featured several engravings of idealistic scenes in Southern Africa. The engravings were produced and translated by professional engravers in London and were also reproduced in The Illustrated London News. The studies of Victoria Falls by Thomas Baines (1820-1875) are arguably comparable to Kentridge's Waterfalls from his Colonial Landscape series. In the early 1860s Baines produced a handful of sketches and oil paintings from his expedition along the Zambezi to Victoria Falls. These images were romanticised and idealistic visions of the Southern African landscape, that can be argued as often disguising the exploitative nature and brutality behind colonial rule.The imagery referred to here has undergone manifold technical steps in its production from sketch to engraving, all under the colonial, romanticised gaze encompassed by its creators. Parallel to this, the images circulated in Great Britain but were also redistributed back to Southern Africa. Kentridge has admitted to being fascinated with this geographic migration of colonial imagery, stating 'I was interested partly in the translations, the temporal and geographic dislocations that happen...'. Thus, the Colonial Landscape series became much more than a simple critique of colonialism. The works in this series were all created on high-quality, handmade Korean paper with deckled edges at the upper and lower margins. It's rare to find a part of the paper that hasn't been worked in with charcoal, which typifies the dense style that bleeds across the entire sheet and masterfully utilises the qualities of the charcoal, including the smudging and erasure that are evident so often in his work.'But if there hadn't been that first almost sensual pleasure in what it is to be working with that charcoal dust, that you can put into the spew of a waterfall, and the way lines in an engraving or in a drawing are like the lines of the sediment of a rock, and the way the rock meets the idea of a drawing or a graphic mark halfway, and the way the erasure works and a lot of other things – and, yes, obviously it relates to colonial images of Africa, but it's also a treat. A form in which I could let myself draw the beautiful, big landscapes, rather than the bleak, flat Highveld landscape.'Within this landscape Kentridge includes a large, red circle with associated red marks which dominate the page and forces the viewers gaze inwards. 'The new red marks are both beacons erected in the landscape and the surveyor's theodolite markings of the image in the viewfinder'. Kentridge has even stated that these red marks are 'bruising on the landscape', conjuring notions of conflict within a sublime landscape. Kentridge also puts his own stamp on the landscape by using motifs that he repeats throughout his oeuvre such as a megaphone and pylon that are all visible on the horizon. BibliographyMargaret K.

Salvatore Fiorello Cloud Lake, 2022 Gouache and Ink on Paper Signed verso 10 x 15cm (3¾ x 5¾ in.) About Salvatore's work deals with perceptions of time, memory and place. He makes paintings that depict often overlooked sections of suburbia, edgelands and semi/rural landscapes reminiscent of faded snapshots. Creeping shadows and spectral forms denote odd or uncanny scenes, like recollected memories or nostalgic day dreams. Salvatore graduated with an MA in Painting from the Royal College of Art in 2000.

'Pale House' features an out building on the grounds that had undergone recent restoration work. The unusually clean façade took on an ephemeral ghost like appearance, this along with the walled perimeter and falling shadows helped conjure a sense of the uncanny which drew me in. The second painting; 'Cloud Lake' features a view of the artificial lake created by Capability Brown in the 1760s. The foreboding sky and dark silhouetted tree line reminded me of earlier oil sketch landscapes painted during the era.

Eugenia Cuellar Pensive, 2022 Watercolour and Pencil on Arches Paper Signed verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About Eugenia Cuellar's paintings are mainly focused on women and the challenges they have to face in a contemporary world. Women interacting with men and women, in different settings and situations, in non-places, subjected to other people and to social and cultural norms. Sourced from own images, collages or mass media imagery, the people depicted in her compositions are either real or imagined. Her work can oscillate from painful or abusive situations to idyllic ones that make up a kind of parallel world that surround us. A world of beauty and pleasure that create a new unreachable standard, an unavoidable mirror in which to look oneself at. Education Turps Banana Art School CC 2017/2022.

Ryan Mosley Big Cat, 2022 Acrylic on Paper Signed verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About Born in 1980, Chesterfield, UK Lives and works in London, UK. Mosley synthesizes art-historical themes, styles, and movements into surreal, folk-inspired paintings that are wholly contemporary, yet appear timeless. Mosley does not sketch his paintings beforehand, instead treating his paintbrush as a pencil to build large-scale images through layers of translucent washes for a batik quality. This spontaneous technique results in theatrical spaces and fantastic scenes, at once whimsical and tragic, ambiguous and intriguing. Mosley's work features recurring images of heads and masks, as well as harlequin-inspired, diamond patterned clothing, which serve as liberated and somber symbols of carnival and release.

Sophie Wake Mother Earth (Sketch), 2022 Gouache on Paper Signed verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About I am a contemporary British artist, working from my studio in Ashburton, Devon I worked for almost 20 years as a busy freelance illustrator. Today however my fine art practice responds to the rhythms of meditation and ancient tree tea ceremony which has become a fundamental companion to my creative approach.Guided by direct somatic experience my works are instinctive and intuitive, each one a process of deep self enquiry and profound reflection. Working with oil on canvas or gouache on paper, my paintings imbue a liminal quality, a sense of in-betweenness that delights in intangible wordlessness. My fine art practice has become suffused with my spiritual practice. Any subject matter is treated as divine, iconic, and dances, uninhibited in its own light. Birds rejoice in liberation, female figures bathe in their own inner beauty and freedom. Influences of Shamanism, African rock art, Ancient clay models, and Greek pottery can be felt throughout the collections, which celebrate the power of storytelling and basic human emotion in simple and authentic form.

Music.- Sketch of the Life (A) of C. Eulenstein, the celebrated performer on the Jew's Harps, first edition, engraved portrait frontispiece, errata slip at end, foxing and marginal staining, modern cloth with old paper label stuck to front cover, 8vo, James J. Welsh, 1833.⁂ A former pastry chef, Eulenstein was the most celebrated performer of the Jew's Harp of his time, although it had a severely detrimental affect on his teeth and forced him to give up the instrument and teach guitar instead. The Jew's Harp - neither Jewish in origin, nor a harp - is the ancestor of the mouth organ and is one of the oldest instruments in the world. It is believed the instrument derived it's name from 'Jaw's harp' or perhaps the French 'jeu-troupe' meaning toy trumpet.
