Pedro Carrillo Montoya (Huichol, 20th/21st c.) Yarn painting on wood board titled "The Huichol Shaman's Path of Completion," 1992. Created under the guidance of Mariano Valadez Navarro. Signed and dated along the verso. With an additional inscription along the verso reading:"The path of the shaman begins in childhood, when the parents educate the child about the Huichol tradition and the inhabitants of the mystical realm. The children are told of the powers of the hallucinogenic plants and animals with shamanic powers. As the children grow older, their sensitivity to spirit beings increases, and their healing powers begin to manifest. The shamanic apprentices acquire numerous power objects and spirit allies who aid them in their shamanic skills. Most important, they acquire the skills to communicate directly with animal and plant spirits."Provenance: From the Estate of Horst Rechelbacher, Osceola, Wisconsin.Horst Rechelbacher, the founder of Aveda and Intelligent Nutrients, was a pioneer in the field of safe and eco-friendly cosmetics.

S.W.Fores No. 15, for Self, Catcall, Buglehorn, Trumpet, Bell, Rattle, Hiss & Groan, 1 Penny, 1 November 1818, promising to pay ‘Messrs Riches, Wantes & Jem Jackall or Bearer, when the Spirit of a London Audience shall have been subdued by A Hero of the Bushkin, Jew Vagrants & Thieftakers and when private Boxes of a Theatre shall be dedicated to Diana’, signed O.P. and Roarer Row, with a vignette showing a air of imbalanced scales and a grand building, and labelled ‘Justitia Impar’ (odd justice), ‘This is the house that Jack built!” and ‘Egomet! bos cum clitellis’ (Myself!, and something to do with a herd of cows!), staple holes at left, about extremely fine £100-£150 --- This note is referring to the Old Price (O.P) Riots of 1809, at the Covent Garden theatre. The theatre burned down in 1808 and when it was rebuilt and reopened a year later, the owners increased the price. This went down very poorly and there were riots, resulting in a lowering of prices. As with several of the Fores notes, much of the relevance was surely lost by 1818.

* CLAIRE HARKESS RSW (SCOTTISH b. 1970),COASTAL FLIGHTwatercolour on paper, signed; titled label versoimage size 60cm x 90cm, overall size 89cm x 117cm Mounted, framed and under glass. Handwritten label verso.Artist's label verso.Note: Claire Harkess was born in Ayr, Scotland, graduating from Glasgow School of Art in the early 1990s. In recent years her painting has taken her to fragile lands to study and interpret life on the edge. Antarctica, Outback Australia and St Kilda are all places where, in such extreme environments, survival is difficult and the balance of life is delicate. Harkess has also worked on the Galápagos Islands, made famous by Charles Darwin’s ‘The Origin of the Species’. This isolated volcanic outpost remained relatively untouched by man, evolving to become one of the World’s unique ecosystems. The balance present in nature is clearly communicated through Claire's paintings. Painting in watercolour or gouache offers a unique directness; the essential qualities of light and energy present in the natural world are the very essence of the medium itself. The delicacy of her palette and oriental economy of her mark-making creates a subtle tension representing a world that is ‘holding still’, giving a sense of freedom, spirit, time and place. Claire's work is exhibited at The Scottish Gallery, where her most recent highly successful solo show was in July 2020, and at other prestigious galleries around the UK.Condition is good overall, with no visible signs of restoration, damage, or known issues.

It was widely reported in the Scottish press that the current owner is a Russian Oligarch albeit one who was among the first to openly and strongly condemn the war in Ukraine. The property boasts a heated swimming pool, two tennis courts and an 18 hole golf course. The press and media also reported that The Tower of Lethendy was acquired by the current owner in 2016.Note 2: Julian Barrow was a painter, adept at catching the spirit of a place, who travelled widely. He was born in Longtown, Cumberland, and studied at RWA and Signorina Simi’s Academy in Florence, Italy. He was a full member of Chelsea Arts Club, living nearby, and from 1988 for 23 years was President of Chelsea Art Society. Group shows included RA Summer Exhibition, 1961–99; Paris Salon, 1965; and NEAC, 2002. He had solo exhibitions at Hazlitt, Gooden and Fox 1972–74–77; Morton Morris & Co, 1982–85; Leger Gallery, 1989–92–95; and Fine Art Society 1999–05, plus many others in America and the Middle East. For decades he lived, with his wife Serena, in a magnificent studio on Tite Street in Chelsea (London) in the building formerly occupied at various times by Sargent, Whistler, Glyn Philpot and Augustus John. Julian Barrow was described by James Lees-Milne as “a country house painter par excellence” and his commissions for interiors and exteriors of country estates took him all over England, Scotland, Ireland, and America. He also painted many of the private clubs in London and New York. John Julius Norwich, in his introduction to the catalogue of a one-man show at the Fine Art Society in London in 2005, notes that Barrow’s pictures “radiate a love of life, a joy in light and shade and colour, a grateful appreciation of all the blessedness that lies around us if we can only make the effort to see it. They warm us; they cheer us; they convince us that whatever terrible things happen in the world, there is a beauty there a-plenty for the asking – and for the taking.” Barrow was commissioned to paint "Her Majesty the Queen Addressing Both Houses of Parliament on the Occasion of Her Golden Jubilee in Westminster Hall" (2002) having previously been commissioned to paint "HM The Queen in Westminster Hall Receiving the Jubilee Address on the 25th Anniversary of Her Accession to The Throne" (1977). Both held in the UK Parliament Art Collection. Julian Barrow's paintings are held in large numbers of prestigious private, corporate and public collections in the UK, US, Middle East, India and the Far East.Condition is good overall, with no visible signs of restoration, damage, or known issues. Additional images have been uploaded to our website.
