A Parisian cast iron and copper street lamp,late 19th century, with a castellated top over a glass shade, on scroll supports and a large column base,55cm wide374cm highThis Parisian street lamp, believed to date back to the late 19th century, is a perfect example of the ornate lamps that adorn the 'City of Light'. The distinctive lamps of Paris date back to 1594, when the local police took charge of installing lanterns in each city neighbourhood. This lamp features a meticulously restored original crown top, as well as a recreated glass shade and metal frame. Adapted to suit a modern garden, it has a replacement cast iron period pole which has been reduced in size, and a copper reflector rather than the traditional white, giving a warmer light, perfect for a summer's night.

CARLYLE (THOMAS)Three autograph letters signed ('T. Carlyle') to an unnamed recipient [Peter Bayne], the first thanking him for the book, assuring him '...there is nothing in your opinions or in your conduct which can be matter of offence to me...' and commenting '...The longer I live, the more I value pious silence, and that proof of truth which comes from acting it, instead of speaking it, or arguing about it...', regretting '...in my present state of hurry... it will not be well feasible to make your acquaintance...'; the second pronouncing on the value of silence ('...it often seems to me as if the very fountain of our woes lay even there, in this universal wagging of the tongue and pen which has fallen on the British People, and in a degree on all Peoples... nature silently rebukes and inexorably punishes them all; but in the fatal list there is none worth naming beside 'incontinence of tongue'...'); and the last confirming he has received his book of essays and letter ('...If I ever again achieve the least leisure for pleasant reading... I will probably examine your... volume...') and wishing him much success, 9 pages, on two bifolium and a single leaf, dust staining and a few small tears, one old small loss where removed from album, remains of guard on two, 8vo (180 x 110mm.), Chelsea, 23 June 1855, 28 July 1855 and 15 April 1859Footnotes:'I SINCERELY WISH YOU WELL, AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR GOODWILL TOWARD ME': CARLYLE'S 'DEXTROUS POLITENESS' TO A SCOTTISH CRITIC.Despite being critical of Thomas Carlyle's religious views in his preface to the first edition of his The Christian Life, Social and Individual, published in 1855, Peter Bayne, then editor of Witness, sent him a copy of the book for his perusal. Whilst Carlyle's response is polite and indeed lengthy, he immediately sent the book and Bayne's note to Jean Aitken for her amusement, with a covering note depicting a non-too-flattering portrait of Bayne and exhorting her to burn his letter after reading: '...Bayne has sent me his Book, with the enclosed Note; to both of which I make you very welcome... I send you the Letter too, in the chance you may get some kind of entertainment out of the affair. Bayne I guess to be some young Edinburgh Preacher (or the like), with great heart, and probably as yet little stuff on board: I do not dislike him, only judge he may have a good deal of wind just now upon his stomach;—and that if he had written nothing, it would have been still wiser for him. Silence about all this; and burn his Letter, poor fellow. I answered in a kind manner; but evaded (with dextrous politeness) to make an acquaintance just now!— Burn the Letter' (25 June 1855). By the time the second edition was published in 1859, Bayne had added a new preface, listing Carlyle's perceived shortcomings but also recognising the importance of Carlyle's contributions to Christian teaching. Again, despite another polite reply to Bayne, Carlyle has no intention of reading the book as promised in our letter and promptly sends it the same day to Charlotte Williams Wynn, enclosing the note '...there has an eloquent volume come to me this day, by a certain peter bayne: which i judge will suit you much better than me...' (see Duke University Press Carlyle Letters online). By 1861, according to Ruskin's biographer Timothy Hilton, Bayne had become rather 'tiresome' and published a 'foolish pamphlet' entitled Terrorism for Christ's Sake in which he had tried to adjudicate between Carlyle and methodist preacher Charles Spurgeon. Since then Carlyle did his best to avoid him in public: '...in 1861 Carlyle had fled from a dinner with John James Ruskin when his critic suddenly arrived at the house...' (Hilton, T., John Ruskin, 2002, p.330). Our letters are not published in the 2002 edition of The Collected Letters of Thomas & Jane Welsh Carlyle.Provenance: Peter Bayne (1830-1896), and thence by descent.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Öl auf Leinwand 100 x 81 cm. Gerahmt. Signiert 'Jorn'. Rückseitig auf der Leinwand signiert, datiert und betitelt 'Dichter & Denker 1962 Jorn' sowie mit Widmung.Guy Atkins, Asger Jorn, The crucial years 1954 – 1964, London 1977, WVZ-Nr. 1414ProvenienzDirekt vom Künstler; Sammlung Werner Haftmann, Berlin; Privatsammlung, SüddeutschlandAusstellungenHumlebaek 1965 (Louisiana Foundation), Asger Jorn, Ausst.Kat.Nr.112 (mit rückseitigem Aufkleber)Amsterdam 1964/1965 (Stedelijk Museum), Asger Jorn, Ausst.Kat.Nr.109Basel 1964 (Kunsthalle), Asger Jorn, Eugène Dodeigne, Ausst.Kat.Nr. 92 (mit rückseitigem Aufkleber)„Hüten Sie sich vor Asger Jorn, wenn Sie Widersprüche nicht vertragen. Seine trunkensten, freudigsten Farben - glühende Grün, Gelb, Rot und Blau - schatten Traurigkeit. […] Wenn etwas mühselig erarbeitet scheint oder den Eindruck erweckt, man hätte es schon irgendwo gesehen oder wenn es aussieht, als kenne man es nicht - dann ist es kein Jorn. Wenn man nicht sicher ist, ob er tatsächlich höchst persönlich und intim mit jedem einzelnen seiner Trolle, Ungeheuer und Satyre auf vertraulichstem Fuße steht - dann ist es kein Jorn. Erwarten Sie nicht, dass Jorns Kreaturen unbedingt aus den alten nordischen Wäldern kommen müssen, in denen sie einst gehaust haben. Jorn holt sie sich auch aus den großen Städten, aus dem südlichsten Süden […]." (John Lefebre, in: Asger Jorn, Ausst. Kat. Kestner-Gesellschaft Hannover 1973, S. 7). In dieser „Warnung vor Asger Jorn" verortet John Lefebre den Künstler treffend im Spannungsfeld zwischen der mystischen Sagenwelt seiner skandinavischen Heimat, die mit ihrer archaischen Kraft die inspirierende Grundlage seines künstlerischen Schaffens bildet, und seiner europäischen Weltläufigkeit. Umfassend gebildet und interessiert, mehrsprachig, mit den besten Kontakten in die europäischen Kunstzentren und ständig auf Reisen, schafft er mit leichter Hand und unermüdlicher Schaffenskraft ein gewaltiges Oeuvre, das auch Skulpturen, Keramiken und Tapisserien mit einschließt. Ergänzt wird das bildnerische Werk durch seine schriftstellerischen Arbeiten, in denen er sich mit Naturwissenschaften oder Politik ebenso fundiert befasst wie mit Ästhetik und der Symbolwelt der Volkskunst.Als Gegenpol zu seinen intellektuellen Auseinandersetzungen schwingen phantastische Mythen in Jorns Gedankenwelt stets im Hintergrund mit, er entdeckt verborgene Phänomene überall im alltäglichen Dasein und lädt die ihn umgebenden Dinge mit magischer Bedeutung auf. In seinen bildnerischen Werken brechen sich diese tiefliegenden metaphysischen Wahrnehmungen in einem automatistischen Malprozess Bahn. In dieser Auktion können vier Bilder von Asger Jorn angeboten werden, die die Entwicklung seiner Malerei über zwei Jahrzehnte hinweg nachzeichnen. Das frühe, unbetitelte Gemälde von 1942 (Lot 65) steht in seiner lichten Farbigkeit und den frei gesetzten Farbflächen noch unter dem Einfluss der École de Paris, die Jorn während seiner Zeit in der französischen Hauptstadt 1936/1937 als Schüler von Fernand Léger und als Mitarbeiter von Le Corbusier intensiv kennenlernt. Die sich von links in die Bildfläche hineinschiebenden verschatteten Bereiche kündigen bereits die nach und nach in sein Schaffen vordringenden mysteriösen Themen der Traum- und Sagenwelt an.Die beiden Arbeiten aus den 1950er Jahren sind ganz diesen dramatischen Mythen verschrieben und stehen damit im Einklang mit den Grundsätzen der COBRA-Bewegung, die Jorn 1948 mitbegründet. „Ohne Titel" aus dem Jahr 1953 (Lot 66) reißt in seiner starken Bewegtheit den Betrachter mitten hinein in ein unbekanntes, rätselhaftes Abenteuer: ein Schiff im Sturm, eine zerrissene Landschaft, das mit Zähnen bewehrte Maul eines Ungeheuers lassen sich herauslesen. Die Darstellung ebenso wie die Signatur scheint in fiebriger, urwüchsiger Kraft auf den Malgrund geworfen zu sein.Zwei schwarze, dämonische Gestalten bahnen sich in „On suit son chemin" von 1956 (Lot 68) ihren Weg durch eine helle Landschaft. Die Geister, Ungeheuer, Masken und Chimären, die in Jorns Bildern präsent sind, entstammen der Volkskunst und den uralten Legenden, die er und seine COBRA-Mitstreiter als fundamentalen Bestandteil der Alltagswelt begreifen. „Man kann nur zur Wahrheit kommen, indem man seine Phantasie für die unglaubwürdigsten Bilder wie die von Bosch und Brueghel einsetzt, aber dann in einer bildnerischen Sprache wie bei den alten Indianern, Wikingern, Primitiven und nicht in einer surrealistisch-naturalistischen Sprache. Wir sollen keine Beschreibungen des Menschen als Tier geben. Aber sollen uns selbst als Tier beschreiben. Das ist unser Weg.", schreibt Jorn 1950 an Constant (zit.nach: Ausst.Kat. Asger Jorn 1914-1973. Gemälde, Zeichnungen, Aquarelle, Gouachen, Skulpturen, Lenbachhaus München 1987, S. 34f.).„Dichter & Denker", 1962 entstanden (Lot 67), ist ein Brustbild, dem Kunsthistoriker Werner Haftmann gewidmet, und diesen wohl darstellend. Gemalt in langen, geschmeidigen Pinselbahnen vor einem nahezu monochromen Hintergrund, zeigt es sich deutlich beruhigter als die früheren Arbeiten und fällt in eine Schaffenszeit, in der sich der Künstler vielfach mit Porträts beschäftigt. Als umfassend belesener und selbst schriftstellerisch tätiger Mensch setzt sich Jorn Zeit seines Lebens mit den Schriften von Natur- und Geisteswissenschaftlern, Philosophen und Lyrikern auseinander, zugleich schätzt er die freie, gleichsam archaische Phantasie hoch ein. „Allein die Phantasie kann das Denken zu etwas Lebendigem machen. […] Die Intelligenz und das schöpferische Denken entzünden sich, wenn sie auf das Unbekannte, das Unerwartete, das Zufällige, das Ungeordnete, das Absurde und das Unmögliche stoßen", schreibt er 1958 in seinem Essay „Pour la forme" (zit. nach: Jorn, Lenbachhaus München, München 1987, S. 87).

Joseph Beuys - - 1921 Krefeld - 1986 Düsseldorf Filzanzug. 1978. Filz. Vgl. Schellmann 26. Auf der Innentasche signiert. Eines von 60 Exemplaren. Ca. 170 x 60 cm (66,9 x 23,6 in). Das vorliegende Exemplar ist eines von 60 Exemplaren, die 1978 von der Fasnachtsclique 'Alti Richtig' zum Fasnachtsumzug getragen werden. Die Gruppe thematisiert damit das vom Basler Kunstmuseum angekaufte Environment 'Feuerstätte' von Beuys. Joseph Beuys stellte dafür einen Filzanzug aus der ursprünglichen Edition von 1970 zur Verfügung und beteiligt sich auch selbst am Fasnachtsumzug. Etliche der damals getragenen Anzüge verwendet Beuys für sein neues Werk 'Feuerstätte II', das er dem Basler Kunstmuseum schenkt. Den Vorschlag zur Themenwahl der Fasnachtsgruppe bringen damals die jungen Architekten Jacques Herzog und Pierre de Meuron ein. [EH]. • Weitere Anzüge, die bei dem Umzug getragen wurden, sind heute Bestandteil des Werkes 'Feuerstätte II' von Joseph Beuys im Kunstmuseum Basel. • Filz isoliert Wärme und Schall, bietet Schutz und verhindert Kommunikation. • Der Filzanzug ist eine Erweiterung der Filzplastiken, die Joseph Beuys für seine Aktionen geschaffen hat. AUSSTELLUNG: Joseph Beuys: Wo ist Element 3?, Ketterer Kunst, Berlin, 26.3.-22.5.2021. 'Ich habe eigentlich eine ganz andere Wärme gemeint, nämlich geistige oder einen Evolutionsbeginn' Joseph Beuys, zit. nach: Jörg Schellmann, Joseph Beuys. Die Multiples, München 1992, S. 19. 'Der Filzanzug ist nicht nur ein Gag, sondern eine Erweiterung meiner Filzplastiken, die ich auch in Aktionen gemacht habe. Hier tritt der Filz ja auch als ein Wärmeelement oder Isolator auf, unter allen Kategorien von Wärmeplastik wird er da benutzt, meistens im Zusammenhang mit Fett. Und davon ist das ein Abzweiger. Also hat einen Bezug zum Wärmecharakter.' (Joseph Beuys, zit. nach: Jörg Schellmann, Joseph Beuys. Die Multiples, München 1992, S. 16) Aufrufzeit: 19.06.2021 - ca. 12.31 h +/- 20 Min.

From an edition of 60 copies. Ca. 170 x 60 cm (66.9 x 23.6 in). This copy is from an edition of 60 copies worm by the carnival group 'Alti Richtig' in a parade in 1978, addressing the acquisition of Beuys' environment 'Feuerstätte' by the Basler Kunstmuseum. For this action Joseph Beuys provided a felt suit from the original edition from 1970 and also took part in the parade. Beuys used many of the suits worn back then for his new work 'Feuerstätte II', which he donated to the Basler Kunstmuseum. The idea for the theme of the carnival parade came from the then young architects Jacques Herzog and Pierre de Meuron. [EH]. • Today other suits worn in the parade are part of the work 'Feuerstätte II' by Joseph Beuys at the Kunstmuseum Basel. • Felt isolates heat and sound, offers protection and prevents communication. • The felt suit is another felt sculpture that Joseph Beuys created for his actions. EXHIBITION: Joseph Beuys: Wo ist Element 3?, Ketterer Kunst, Berlin, March 26 – May 22, 2021. 'I actually meant a completely different kind of heat, I meant a spiritual one or a beginning of an evolution.' Joseph Beuys, quote from: Schellmann, Joseph Beuys: Die Multiples, Munich 1992, p. 19. 'The felt suit is not just a gag, but an extension of my felt sculptures, which I also made in actions. Here, the felt also acts as a warming element or insulator. In all categories of heat sculptures it is used for this purpose, mostly in connection with fat. So there is a connection with the warming character.' (Joseph Beuys, quote from: Jörg Schellmann, Joseph Beuys. Die Multiples, Munich 1992, p. 16) Called up: June 19, 2021 - ca. 12.31 h +/- 20 min.
