Attributed to Cecil Kennedy (1905-1997) Still life of flowers in a glass vase Bears signature, oil on panel, 42cm by 60cm Artist's Resale Rights/Droit de Suite may apply to this lot, please refer to our Terms of Business . The painting has received a significant amount of retouching and overpainting throughout large and consistent swathes of the background. There is further fairly heavy handed, albeit less comprehensive, retouching and strengthening to various elements of the floral display and vase focusing more on areas of detail, shadows and definition. Much of the repainting and overpainting has deteriorated and has a different characteristic to other parts. Areas of isolated fine to large sized craquelure and pronounced crazing throughout surface. Some surface dirt and discoloured varnish. Rubbing to parts of outer edges. Sold as found.

Continental School (19th century) Still life of Roses, Carnations and Honeysuckle arranged in a gadrooned vase on a stone ledge Indistinctly signed, oil on canvas, 72.5cm by 60cm See illustration . In fully restored condition. Rather stiffly re-lined, cleaned and re-varnished. The surface is somewhat flattened by the restoration process. Much of the background has been fairly comprehensively retouched and overpainted with a possible other phase of more delicate restoration to old flaked paint. There is a linear area of overpainting just left of the far left hand side white blossom which is approx 3 cm in length. The indistinct signature maybe strengthened or added. The upper section of the urn also appears to have been overpainted as have elements of the foot and general decoration applied to the vase. Whilst a large degree of the left hand side of the ledge has been strengthened/overpainted, the far right third displays retouching more in line with pronounced crazing, whilst some of the general outlining of the flowers and shadows of central parts definitions etc.., appear to have received some general restoration. The degree of intervention compared to the background is seemingly less systematic. Varying sized stable craquelure throughout. The paint is thin/abraded in areas. Some surface dirt and discoloured varnish. For more information please contact the department.

Brian Sanders (British, B. 1937) "Side Trawler -- Fishing Boat" Watercolor on Illustration Board. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting was originally published on the Fleetwood First Day Cover for the Great Britain 18p Side Trawler stamp issue of September 23, 1981. Just off North America's Atlantic Coast extends a wide continental shelf, in some areas reaching as far as five hundred miles from the shore. Large areas of this shelf form underwater plateaus where the fishing grounds are among the best in the world. Annually, fishermen from Canada, the United States and Europe take about nine billion pounds of fish from this area. The Trawler pictured in this artwork is one craft which sails the icy waters of the North Atlantic in search of fish. Once the men locate their prey, they lay out their trawler nets. A huge flat funnel net is dragged on rollers along the seabed while the net's mouth is kept open by water pressure on two door-shaped objects called otter boards. The noise of the net disturbs the fish and they attempt to escape. However, they soon tire and are hopelessly trapped in the net's funnel. Because areas the men fish are so treacherous, they equip their boat with steam hoses and axes which they use to remove ice from the decks and riggings. Should the heavy ice be allowed to build up, the craft would surely capsize. Even though modern trawlers are fitted with many safety devices which offer some protection, it is still quite common for a vessel to be lost at sea without a trace. Although working in the North Atlantic is a dangerous life, the fish are so plentiful that men gladly brave the fearsome hazards of icy, storm-tossed seas to reap great catches.

Don Balke (North Carolina, B. 1933) "Alaska Brown Bear" Signed lower right. Original Watercolor painting on Illustration Board. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting was originally published on the Fleetwood First Day Cover for the U.S. Wildlife of the 50 States 22c Brown Bear/Alaska stamp issued June 13, 1987. Although several species of Brown Bears are native to a number of regions around the world, the largest of these -- and indeed the world's largest living terrestrial carnivore -- is the Alaska Brown Bear. Also known as the Kodiak Bear, these Bears may reach nine feet in length and weigh more than three-quarters of a ton. Preferring a solitary life, when spring arrives, these huge Bears shuffle along well-worn trails to salmon-rich streams where they feed after the winter's hibernation. Frequently, the Bears will quarrel over territorial fishing rights. After disputes are settled, they get down to the business of catching fish. Fishing techniques differ between individuals. Some aggressive Bears wade out among the fish and squat down so that the current boils over them, and when a fish passes by, an effortless head nod or paw swipe yields a meal. Others prefer to wait by the banks for fish darting close to shore so a powerful brown paw can pin it down. Still other Bears refuse to fish at all, preferring to sneak off with an unwary neighbor's catch. One of the most unpredictable and dangerous animals man can encounter in the wild, the Alaska Brown Bear is, nonetheless, a stirring sight. Image Size: 13.5 x 14.5 in. Overall Size: 14 x 17 in. Unframed. (B10607)
Thomas Koether (New York, Florida / Europe, Australia, born 1940) Titled: "Tangier Boudoir" Dated: '98 Oil on canvas. Signed lower right. Overall Size: 31.25 x 31.25 in.In 1960, Koether was accepted to the school of the Art Institute of Chicago at age 20. In 1963 Koether Moved to New York City and started going to the Art Students League. In June of 1966 he graduated with honors from N.Y.U. and was accepted to the N.Y.U. graduate school of Communications Arts in Cinematography under Haig Manoogian. In 1970, he moved to Paris to take a studio space at the American Center on Boulevard Raspail. In July of ’71 Koether went to Italy and did a lot of drawing and watercolors. In Florence he met Italian art restorers and learned a lot about restoration from them. That same year, he participated in a group show at the American Center and sold several pieces – one to director Henry Pillsbury. The work from Ibiza and Paris dealt with attempts to delineate abstraction as a form with his own experience of his own abstractness – landscapes and still-lives of his own psychic and emotional space. This work has a post-psychedelic aspect. In 1974 Koether moved back to New York and worked in N.Y.C. as an art restorer with Roger Ricco Associates. That year, he had a one man show at Ajanta Gallery on East 9th Street. In 1976, Koether moved to Australia and established an art conservation business and worked on the 5 major collections of Oceanic art in Australia.

Howard Koslow (1924 - 2016) "Elephant" Signed lower left. Original Acrylic painting on Illustration Board. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting is the original painting which appeared on the Fleetwood First Day Cover of the 29? Elephant stamp issued April 6, 1993. "Hold your horses, here come the elephants!" This familiar cry signaled the start of the fabulous circus parade. Although cavorting clowns, prancing horses and blaring trumpets entertained the spectators, perhaps the most awe-inspiring attraction was the promenade of elephants. Lumbering two-by-two, linked by trunk and tail, these massive creatures slowly made their way down crowd-lined streets. Often turbaned "mahouts" -- Asian elephant trainers -- added to the animals' mystique as the exotic herds paraded along the route. The Grand Cortege revealed just a glimmer of what was to come. For the real show was under the big top, and there was still much to be done before showtime. In the early days of the circus, elephants played an integral part in setting up the "tent city." Their tremendous strength was a valuable asset that was employed at each stop. The harnessed pachyderms strained against heavy chains connected to the center kingpole. Their herculean efforts would eventually pull the pole and its bale rings into position as the tent began to take shape. Caring for the elephants was a huge task, but often a young circus fan would lend a hand. An industrious child could earn a free pass by hauling water to the thirsty creatures, though just being close to such a great curiosity was probably payment enough. "To see the elephant," a common 19th-century expression connoting sophistication and a vast knowledge of life, sums up the magnitude of this enormous creature's effect on its devoted public. Image Size: 14 x 12 in. Overall Size: 20.25 x 17.5 in. Unframed. (B14173)
