Das vorliegende Exemplar ist eines von 60 Exemplaren, die 1978 von der Fasnachtsclique 'Alti Richtig' zum Fasnachtsumzug getragen worden sind. 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. • 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.

Schellmann 26. Signed on the inside pocke. One of 60 copies. Ca. 170 x 60 cm (66.9 x 23.6 in). This piece is one of 60 that were worn by the 'Alti Richtig' carnival group at the carnival parade in 1978. The group's theme was Beuys' envrionment artwork 'Feuerstätte', which the Basel Art Museum had purchased. Joseph Beuys provided a felt suit from the original 1970 edition for this purpose and also took part in the carnival procession. Beuys used several of the suits worn at the time for his new work 'Feuerstätte II', which he donated to the Basel Art Museum. At the time, the young architects Jacques Herzog and Pierre de Meuron suggested a theme for the carnival group. • Other suits worn during the parade are now part of the work 'Feuerstätte II' by Joseph Beuys in the Kunstmuseum Basel. • Felt insulates heat and sound, offers protection and prevents communication. • The felt suit is an extension of the felt sculptures that Joseph Beuys created for his actions.

Here, felt also appears as a heat element or insulator, it is used in all categories of heat sculpture, mostly in connection with fat. And this is a branch of that.

Das verliebte Paar in der alpenländischen Natur, mit den Figuren des Jägers und der Sennerin stellt eines der schönsten wiederkehrenden Motive in Spitzwegs Œuvre dar. Während seiner zahlreichen Wanderungen im Alpenvorland, den Münchner Hausbergen und Tirol dürfte er diesen beiden als Symbolfiguren idyllischer, freier Ländlichkeit des Öfteren begegnet sein. In seinen Skizzenbüchern finden sich etliche Zeichnungen des Paares, deren Zuneigung er in immer neuen Posen arrangiert. Bereits seit seiner Frühzeit variiert Spitzweg das Thema in kleinen Details und Nuancen: mal findet ein Treffen in der Felsenschlucht statt, mal auf einem Gebirgspfad am kleinen Marterl, im Hochwald oder am Brunnen. Die künstlerische Subtilität Spitzwegs zeigt sich in dem unterschiedlichen Charakter der Begegnungen, die als zufälliges Aufeinandertreffen erfolgen, als Stelldichein in nächtlicher Heimlichkeit oder auch tagsüber bei der mittäglichen Rast, wie die Chronik einer Liebesgeschichte in den Alpen, wenn man alles zusammennähme. Die beiden Figuren und ihre Romanze scheinen ihn nicht nur malerisch nachhaltig beschäftigt zu haben, merkt man doch an den zahlreichen Varianten die theatralische Lust am inszenieren und an der Erzählung. Bei einigen der Gemälde steht die Landschaft im Vordergrund, bei anderen - so wie in diesem Fall - treten die Figuren größer im Vordergrund auf. Sie wenden sich, ganz ineinander vertieft, vom Betrachter ab und spazieren in den dichten Wald, hinter dem man - in ganz Spitzwegscher Manier - einen kleinen Ausblick erhaschen darf auf den hinter den Wolken silbrig schimmernden Mond. Deutlicher als andere Variationen des Themas verortet er die Szene hier im Gebirge, wie es sich in der am rechten Rand eingefügten Felswand zeigt. Außergewöhnlich ist im vorliegenden Gemälde auch die Lichtregie, die wie vor einer Waldbühne von vorne zusätzlich beleuchtet zu sein scheint. Neben die in tupfenhafter und lockerer Malweise in den unterschiedlichsten Grüntönen wiedergegebenen Vegetation und dem Anzug des Jägers setzt Spitzweg im Gewand der Sennerin seinen bevorzugten Farbklang aus rotem Rock, blauer Schürze, schwarzem Mieder und weißer Bluse, zurückhaltend hier jedoch in kleinster und subtiler Dosierung. Die beiden Figuren des Jägers und der Sennerin finden sich auch in einzelfigurigen Szenen in Spitzwegs Œuvre, hier finden sie auf heimlich-romantische Art im Gemälde zusammen. [KT] Aufrufzeit: 09.12.2023 - ca. 13.38 h +/- 20 Min.

Lower left with the signature paraph. 33.7 x 24.9 cm (13.2 x 9.8 in). • Probably one of the earliest versions of the 'Hunter and Girl' motif in Spitzweg's work • Effectively staged scene of the rural love couple against the backdrop of the mountain forest • Finely crafted composition, rich in detail, which focuses on the two romantic characters as larger individual figures.

Seedamm Kulturzentrum Pfäffikon September 22, 2002 - January 5, 2003; Haus der Kunst, Munich, January 24 - May 4, 2003, pp. 152-153, cat. no. 69 (fig.). LITERATURE: Siegfried Wichmann, Carl Spitzweg. Verzeichnis der Werke. Gemälde und Aquarelle, Stuttgart 2002, no. 1483 (fig.). Siegfried Wichmann, Carl Spitzweg. Jäger mit Mädchen im Wald. Dokumentation, Starnberg-München, R.f.v.u.a.K. 1984, pp. 12-19, 24-27, Bayerische Staatsbibliothek, München, inv. no. Ana 656 SW 19. The love couple in the Alpine countryside, with the figures of the hunter and the dairymaid, is one of the most beautiful recurring motifs in Spitzweg's oeuvre. During his numerous hikes in the foothills of the Alps, Munich's local mountains and Tyrol, he was likely to frequently encounter these two as symbolic figures of an idyllic rural life. His sketchbooks contain numerous drawings of the couple, arranging their affection in ever new poses. Even from his early days, Spitzweg varied the theme in small details and nuances: sometimes a meeting takes place in a rocky gorge, sometimes on a mountain path at a small shrine, in a mountain forest or at a fountain. Spitzweg's artistic subtlety becomes evident in the encounters’ varying characters. A chance meeting, a rendezvous at night in secrecy or during the day at a midday rest, like the chronicle of a love story in the Alps. The two figures and their romance seem to have been a lasting preoccupation for him, and not just in terms of painting, as the numerous variations thereof testify to his joy in staging and telling the story. In some of the paintings, the landscape is in the foreground, in others - as in this case - the figures appear larger in the foreground. They turn away from the viewer, completely immersed in each other, and walk into the dense forest, behind which - in true Spitzwegian style - we catch a glimpse of the moon shimmering silvery behind the clouds. More clearly than inother variations on the theme, he located the scene in the present work in the mountains, as the rock face in right suggests. The lighting is also unusual in this painting, which appears to be lit from the front, as if in front of a forest stage. Alongside the vegetation and the hunter's suit, depicted in a dabbed and loose painting style in various shades of green, Spitzweg uses his preferred color scheme of red skirt, blue apron, black corsage and white blouse as the dairymaid's apparel, albeit in the smallest and most subtle doses. The two figures of hunter and dairymaid can also be found individually in single-figure scenes in Spitzweg's oeuvre; in this painting they come together in a secretly romantic way.

From The Estate Of Bill Owen (1914-1999) - Last Of The Summer Wine - a complete screen-used Compo costume, as worn by Bill Owen as the iconic character in the classic BBC sitcom. Comprising a custom-made deliberately distressed woollen jacket with label for Bryan Manning of Saville Row, an equally distressed knitted waistcoat, pyjama-type shirt, distressed suit trousers complete with rope belt, and the trademark iconic green knitted woollen hat. The trousers with original 'Stagewear Unlimited of Yorkshire' costumers label, which has 'Bill' written in ink alongside. Believed to have been worn by Owen in the series around the mid-to-late 1990s and is one of his 'final' costumes for the character. There were several versions of Compo's costume over the show's run, and each time the costume wore out the production team would have to carefully source another - the jackets ended up being purchased from a Savile Row tailor (above) and were painstakingly 'weathered' by the production team in order to maintain continuity. A note within Owen's autobiography alludes to the eventual cost of his tailor-made 'scruffy' costume being in the region of two-thousand pounds once completed. With trademark green hat, rope belt and distressed appearance, this screen-used costume represents one of the most inconic and endearing outfit's in British comedy history. Supplied with a photograph of Owen as the character, wearing this costume.

THE ONE-PIECE BATHING SUITBritish Quad (30" x 40"); AKA Million Dollar MermaidFine+ Folded MGM, 1952The folded British quad offered here, using the alternate title, features a stunning image of Williams, one that is similar to the domestic one sheet but not the same. The folded poster shows a chip from the lower right corner border. There are pieces of brown paper tape on the verso.Better known as Million Dollar Mermaid (1952) and starring Esther Williams, this is the story of Australian swimming star Annette Kellerman, who was one of the first women to wear a one-piece bathing suit (instead of the more acceptable pantaloons) and was one of the leaders in popularizing the sport of synchronized swimming. Williams desperately wanted to bring Kellerman's story to the screen and, taking Kellerman with her, successfully pitched the project to MGM. Williams considered this her favorite film and named her autobiography after it. This lot will be auctioned on Thursday, December 7th.

COMMANDER CODYOne-Sheet (27" X 41"); From the Leonard Maltin Collection Chapter 12 - The Captives of the Zero HourVery Fine+ Folded Republic, 1953The classic poster offered here is from the final chapter, "Captives of the Zero Hour," and boasts a dynamic image of Cody in his "futuristic" space suit. Other than pinholes in the top two corners, and some slight wrinkling to the right edge, the poster is in excellent condition.By 1953, the serial format, so popular in the 1930s and 1940s, was ending, succumbing to the rise of television. However, the format still had some life left in it, as proved by this classic science-fiction adventure about Commander Cody (Judd Holdren), a masked scientist/adventurer who sets out to find the cause of dangerous weather and climate changes ravaging the earth. He discovers an alien plot to conquer the planet, aided and abetted by a gang of Earth-born crooks. The Commander Cody character was first seen in an earlier Republic serial, Radar Men from the Moon (1952), starring George Wallace, and continued in Zombies of the Stratosphere (1952) with Holdren before transitioning to television.

FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGHOne-Sheet (27" x 41")Very Fine- Rolled Universal, 1982While lead actor Sean Penn may have distanced himself from his surfing slacker character in Fast Times At Ridgemont High, collectors don't have to follow suit. In fact, owning this iconic rolled poster featuring Jeff Spicoli front and center is awesome. Totally awesome.While this rolled poster does display some slight horizontal creasing in the background, this doesn't take away from the overall appearance. There is a small stain in the background to the left of the film's title, some edge wear to the upper right, and some staining in the upper left border.Seminal coming-of-age comedy directed by Amy Heckerling and written by Cameron Crowe. Sean Penn's breakout role as high-school stoner-surfer Jeff Spicoli remains iconic.This lot will be auctioned on Friday, December 8th.

Milner celebrates 'randomness' and is interested in both controlled and accidental mark making. The immediacy of printing and the results of accidental mistakes that occur from this practice suit her painterly style. The artist's work focuses on turning what might be perceived as banal and unremarkable into something special. Milner is fascinated with the commonality of clutter and drawn to the detail of mundane experiences that surround identity and everyday life.The edition 'Slimmers Toffees' was selected for the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition 2023.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

An important Coalport dessert centre dish, from the Nicholas I Service, circa 1845 made by command of Queen Victoria for presentation to Czar Nicolas I of Russia, painted in enamel colours and decorated with gilding, painted with the badge of the Russian Order of St. Andrew with panels to the rim with Orders of St. George, St. Alexander of Nevsky, St. Vladimir, St. Stanislaus and St. Anne, printed retailer's mark for A B and R P Daniell, 129 New Bond Street and 18 Wigmore Street, London, 40cm wide (restored) Provenance: Ivor Southorn Collection. Notes: This dessert dish originates from a service commissioned by Queen Victoria for Tsar Nicholas I during his official visit to England in 1844. This set, referred to as the 'Coalport Service' in Russia, consisted of 62 plates and was presented to St. Petersburg the following year. The design of the plates closely imitates the William IV service crafted by Flight, Barr, and Barr, which was initially designed to commemorate the Coronation of King William IV in 1831. However, the British emblems on the original design were substituted with Russian Orders to suit the occasion.The Tsar was so captivated by the elegance of the service that he decided to order an additional 124 matching plates from the Imperial Porcelain Factory. These plates were intended for use during official state banquets. Subsequently, in 1849, a coordinating dinner service was commissioned from Coalport. In 1934, a selection of plates from the original service was sold by the Narkomat for Foreign Trade. Nonetheless, a substantial number of the surviving pieces can be found in the State Hermitage Museum. Condition:Both handle areas restored with obvious re-gilding and over-painting. Two cracks to foot.
