Henry "Henno" Michael O’Connor (American, 1891-1975). Ashcan school watercolor on artist's paper depicting a stirring WWII battle scene showing the horrors of war and the individual’s heroic reckoning with certain death and the ‘never-back-down’ mentality of American spirit, ca 1940s.Lot Essay:Henry Michael O’Connor was born in Brookline, Massachusetts on March 5, 1891. Early references allude to O’Connor’s skill as a boxer, a favorite sport and source of revenue for his education. He studied at the Massachusetts Normal Art School in Boston and the Boston Museum of Fine Arts School under teachers such as Joseph Pennell, Joseph de Camp, and Frank Benson. O’Connor also assisted Abbot Thayer in Dublin, New Hampshire for two years who then encouraged the young artist to go abroad. In Europe, he studied at the Académie Julian in Paris and practiced etching at the Kensington School in London.Early in his career, O’Connor seems to have been influenced by the Ashcan School of Realists in New York, although he remained active in Boston. The working people and sites of Salem Street in Boston’s North End was a favorite early subject of which he made mostly drawings. His fluid and precise linear quality is evident in several of the early drawings dating from 1914 to1919, which depict working class scenes from Charlestown, Gloucester, and Rockport in addition to Boston. Urban monuments and architecture became more frequent subjects in subsequent works. Some Boston landmarks depicted by O’Connor include Faneuil Hall, State Street, the Massachusetts State House, Harvard, Paul Revere’s House and Trinity Church.Two lithographs dated 1918 provide the first evidence of O’Connor’s activity in New York, although the main body of his New York work begins in the 1920’s. Shortly after the First World War ended, O’Connor opened a studio in the city and soon met Regina Summer, a New York City designer, whom he married in 1924. Due to frequent visits, he was still listed as a Cambridge resident into the 1930’s while he lived and worked in New York City. One of his New York etchings, “Looking from New Jersey to New York†was similarly portrayed by Joseph Pennell and Martin Lewis. O’Connor is also known to have spent time working in Paris in the early 1920’s. Four Parisian etchings appeared at the National Academy of Design in New York City in the 1927 Annual Exhibition.Much of O’Connor’s graphic work reflects his frequent travels. Some of his known trips include Gloucester (MA), Rockport (MA), Philadelphia, Chicago, Memphis, Indianapolis, Paris, London, Nuremberg, Dresden, Rotterdam, Venice, Florence, Siena, and several Canadian cities.As shown in countless prints and drawings, O’Connor was also an avid marine enthusiast. He shared this interest with friend and author Jim Connolly and provided illustrations for two of his volumes, “The Book of Gloucester Fishermen†(New York: The John Day Company, 1927) and “Navy Men†(New York: The John Day Company, 1939). He also designed the cover for the November 1938 issue of ASIA, published by the American Asiatic Foundation. His affiliation with the naval community as a petty officer earned him a portrait painting commission for six naval officers in NACAL. A portrait of Admiral Charles Wellborn Jr. may be located at the United States Naval College in Norfolk, Virginia.Other O’Connor sitters include Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Governor Charles Hurley, Dr. William O’Hanlon (reportedly located at the Margaret Hague Hospital in Jersey City, New Jersey) the Honorable Joseph Tallent, and James Roosevelt. The Roosevelt picture was reported to be somewhere in Boston, Massachusetts, though it is not clear whether this refers to the James or Franklin D. Roosevelt portraitHenry O’Connor died suddenly on February 25, 1975. Funeral services were held in Cambridge Massachusetts, and he may have been buried at the site of the Lakewood Cemetery Association.Sight; height: 23 in x width: 17 1/2 in.

Simson mit einem Philister, von Pietro und Gian Lorenzo BerniniWeißer, grau geäderter Marmor. Bedeutende zweifigurige Skulpturengruppe auf einer fast quadratischen flachen Plinthe mit etwas abgeschrägten Ecken. Der ehemals erhobene Arm verloren, kleinere Abbrüche an den Zehen. Restaurierungen an den Nasen, den Lippen und den auf dem Rücken verschränkten Händen. H 151, Plinthe B 57, T 52 cm.Rom, Pietro Bernini und Gian Lorenzo Bernini, um 1616 - 1618.Die Darstellung zeigt die biblische Figur Simson, der nach einer Episode im Alten Testament, Buch der Richter (Ri 15,15-17), mit dem Kieferknochen eines Esels tausend Philister erschlug: "Er fand den noch blutigen Kinnbacken eines Esels, ergriff ihn mit der Hand und erschlug damit tausend Männer. Damals sagte Simson: Mit dem Kinnbacken eines Esels habe ich sie gründlich verprügelt; mit einem Eselskinnbacken habe ich tausend Männer erschlagen. Als er das gesagt hatte, warf er den Kinnbacken weg; daher nannte man den Ort Ramat Lehi (Kinnbackenhöhe)." Die vermutlich symbolische Anzahl der 1000 Philister wird hier durch einen Philister verbildlicht, über den der biblische Held triumphiert. Die zweifigurige Gruppe befindet sich auf einer quadratischen flachen Plinthe mit abgeschrägten Ecken. Sie ist in der Weise allansichtig durchkomponiert, dass sie komplett umlaufen werden kann und von allen Seiten einen neuen spektakulären Anblick bietet.Ein Mann mit umgegürteter Tuchdraperie und in den Nacken gelegtem Kopf schreitet über den unbekleideten Mann hinweg, der mit dem Rücken und angewinkelten Beinen auf dem Boden liegt. Der Sieger umfasst mit seiner linken Hand auf dem Rücken das Handgelenk der zur Faust geballten Hand des Besiegten und reißt ihn damit in die Höhe, um ihn so besser mit dem leider verlorenen Eselskiefer zu treffen. Der Bildhauer musste die gewagte Statik seiner Komposition mit einer Stütze unter dem Rücken des gefällten Philisters versehen. Die geschickt genutzte Struktur des grau geäderten Marmors, schräg von links unten nach rechts oben gemasert, unterstützt die Dynamik der Komposition. So wird auch ohne den ehemals erhobenen Arm mit dem Knochen der narrative Zusammenhang deutlich erkennbar. Die Gruppe wurde entweder als Teil eines Brunnens konzipiert oder bei einer späteren Aufstellung mit Rohren für eine Fontäne versehen. Ein Bleirohr endet im Mund des Philisters, Reste eines Rohrs stecken in der Schulter des abgebrochenen Arms. Da der Arm fehlt, ist es leider nicht möglich, mit Sicherheit zu sagen, wie die ursprünglich geplante Erstverwendung aussah. Es könnte sein, dass das Wasser durch den Arm entspringen sollte und dass später - möglicherweise nach dem Bruch des Arms - die Gruppe modifiziert und ein Kanal in die Öffnung gemeißelt wurde. Dies erklären, dass sich der Kanal nicht nach unten öffnet, sondern nach oben verbunden ist. Außerdem scheint ein Kanal durch den Mund des Simson später geschlossen worden zu sein. Die traditionelle Zuschreibung dieser Skulpturengruppe erfolgte an den großen Architekten, Bronzegießer und Bildhauer Pietro Tacca (1577 – 1640). Pietro Bernini wurde 1562 in Sesto Fiorentino geboren, eine Stadt in der unmittelbaren Nachbarschaft von Florenz, wo er auch seine erste bildhauerische Ausbildung genoss. Die „toskanische Matrix“ hat sich in seinem Werk erhalten und findet auch hier ihren Ausdruck in dem stark gekrümmten Körper des unterlegenen Mannes. In der Skulpturensammlung Staatliche Museen Berlin, Bode Museum, befindet sich ein weiterer Brunnen mit der Figurengruppe Satyr mit Panther, der Pietro Bernini zugeschrieben wird (Inv. 292). Auf den ersten Blick auffällig ist die Verwendung des identisch gemaserten Marmors mit seinen pyrit- und magnetithaltigen Adern, die in Berlin in ähnlicher Weise in die Komposition miteinbezogen werden. Auch die Körperhaltung des Fauns mit dem nach links oben gerichteten Gesicht und den erhobenen Armen, ebenso wie sein feingliedriger Torso lassen unmittelbare Parallelen zu dem hier vorliegenden Werk erkennen. Bacchi zitiert die Konferenz 1999, auf der der legendäre amerikanische Kunsthistoriker Irving Lavin anhand eines Dokumentes die Skulptur von dem bisher vermuteten Jahr 1615 auf 1595 - 98 vordatiert und die Produktion in das florentiner Atelier Pietro Berninis lokalisiert. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt war Gian Lorenzo noch nicht oder gerade geboren. Bacchi stellt die Vordatierung weiterhin zur Diskussion. Dennoch bleiben die gemeinsamen Merkmale beider Skulpturengruppen, die trotz der stärker verwitterten Oberfläche des Samson erkennbar sind. Im Gutachten zum Samson vergleichen Professor Angelini und Professor Maccherini diese Gruppe mit anderen frühen Werken Gian Lorenzos wie z.B. dem „Jungen mit Drachen“, ebenfalls eine Zusammenarbeit mit dem Vater, aus dem J. Paul Getty Museum (87.SA.42), der Gruppe „Bacchanal: Faun mit Kindern“ in der Sammlung The Metropolitan Museum of Art (1976.92) und dem Hl. Laurentius/San Lorenzo von 1617 aus den Uffizien (Inv. Contini Bonacossi 36). Auch bei diesen Skulpturen sind stiltypische Merkmale Gian Lorenzos festzustellen wie etwa die ähnliche Verwendung der Gradine, die eigentlich ungewöhnlich in der toskanischen Tradition ist, eine "radiale Struktur" der Haare und, unübersehbar, eine ähnliche Fußform mit dem leicht abgestreckten dicken Zeh.In der Vergangenheit wurde der Zusammenarbeit zwischen Pietro und Gian Lorenzo nicht viel Aufmerksamkeit geschenkt. Die frühen Werke von Gian Lorenzo wurden vernachlässigt, selbst von zeitgenössischen Biographen wie Baldinucci. Gian Lorenzo arbeitete aktiv daran, den Mythos von sich selbst als enfant prodige zu schaffen und seine frühe Tätigkeit hinter der Werkstatt des Vaters zu verstecken. Deswegen sind eindeutige Zuschreibungen, wie groß der Anteil des jungen Gian Lorenzo an einem Oeuvre aus dem Atelier des Vaters ist, seit Jahrzehnten eine Quelle für kunsthistorische Diskussionen. Andrea Bacchi setzte sich im Katalog der Ausstellung „Gian Lorenzo Bernini. Regista del Barocco“ im Palazzo Venezia in Rom 1999 mit genau diesem Thema auseinander und griff es erneut für den Katalog der Ausstellung in der Villa Borghese 2018 auf (a.a.O., S. 22 ff.) Ohne Zweifel hat Gian Lorenzo im Alter von 17 Jahren bereits Außerordentliches geschaffen, dennoch sind seine Wurzeln im Werk des Vaters erkennbar. Für die beeindruckende hier vorgestellte Gruppe aus Simson und dem Philister ist die Präzisierung auf einen Schöpfer noch offen, wenn auch Alessandro Angelini und Michele Maccherini den Anteil des großen Gian Lorenzo als maßgeblich bezeichnen.GutachtenAlessandro Angelini und Michele Maccherini, Sansone e il filisteo di Gian Lorenzo e Pietro Bernini, 2003 (wird veröffentlicht).ProvenienzAlbrecht Neuhaus, Würzburg.
