Seán Keating PPRHA RSA RA (1889-1977)Don QuixoteOil on board, 73.5 x 84cm (29 x 33'')Signed versoProvenance: Boston (1927); British Artists Association, Buenos Aires (1928); Helen Hackett Gallery New York (1929); Grace Horn Gallery, Boston (1929).For Irish artist, Seán Keating, the artistic and allegorical possibilities offered by literature were endless. A fluent French speaker, his interest in all things Spanish was ignited on meeting his future wife, May Walshe, in 1916. Raised in a convent in Spain, May was so immersed in the culture that the language of her dreams was Spanish. It was hardly surprising that he would turn to one of the best-known works of Spanish literature to critique issues such as self-invention, social change, questions of truth, and the cult of individualism at the time.Miguel de Cervantes published the first part of Don Quixote in 1605, followed by a second volume in 1615, and ever since the central eponymous and comical character has been popular as a satirical metaphor for those not enamoured of the political classes, or of the self-satisfied. Formerly Alonso Quijano, the delusional old man read so many chivalric novels that he lost his mind. Led by his over-ripe imagination, he decided to transform himself into a knight. He created a cardboard helmet and found himself an ancient horse and an old suit of armour. In the guise of Don Quixote he took to the roads to serve his nation as a chivalric knight, but failed miserably in the face of a series of catastrophic events. Along the way he acquired the services of an elderly assistant, Sancho Panza, otherwise known as the magician, whose role was initially self-serving, yet ultimately, he helped his master through the reality of the terrible tribulations that they encountered. The first image in a series of three relating to Don Quixote was El Prestigiador Despojado (The Magician), a portrait of Sancho Panza, which was painted by the artist in 1918. It is now in the collection of the Crawford Gallery in Cork.Keating did not return to the theme again until the late 1920s, and when he did, it was Don Quixote’s character that offered him the opportunity to allegorically critique the impractical pursuit of idealist goals by politicians, and individuals amid the socially, economically, and politically problematic years of the late 1920s and 30s. Indeed, it was Don Quixote who gave his name to the term ‘quixotic.’ Thus, this version, Quixote, was the first of two images of the unlucky knight. Painted in the artist’s home in Killakee in the Dublin Mountains in 1927, it was initially sent to an exhibition in Boston organised by the then President of the RHA, Dermod O’Brien.Quixote is a quiet and contemplative painting in which the eponymous antihero appears without his suit of armour. He sits in an undefined but decorative interior setting, his hand on a book, his sword and helmet on the table, thinking about his future, and of his supposedly chivalric deeds. But he has yet been fully taken over by the delusions that haunt the character in the book. That was to come in the second version of the painting, which Keating produced amid major political change in Ireland in 1932, and titled Don Quixote (sold in Adams in 2010).Don Quixote is described in the novel as tall and gaunt. Keating always chose his models to suit the character he wanted to portray. In this instance, he used a man with suitable physical attributes from among those that modelled the Dublin Metropolitan School of Art. The same man appears in this version, Quixote (1927), in Quixote Model’s Interval (1927) (private collection), in Good Old Stuff (1928) (private collection) and in Don Quixote (1932).Dr Éimear O’Connor HRHAAuthor: Seán Keating: Art, Politics, and Building the Irish Nation (IAP, 2013).Director: The Tyrone Guthrie Centre at Annaghmakerrig.

William John Leech RHA ROI (1881-1968)Self Portrait with Window and TableOil on board, 50 x 38cm (19¾ x 15'')SignedProvenance: Taylor Label on back. Listed as No.5 “Self-portrait with window and table” in the list compiled by Leo Smith of paintings by W.J.Leech in his studio at Clandon, 5 September 1968, for Greenwood & Loryman. Accountants, London for death duty purposes by the Dawson Gallery, 4 Dawson St., Dublin 2.When William (Bill) Leech, with his wife May Botterell, moved out of London to live at West Clandon, near Guildford in Surrey, in 1958, Leech was already in his late 70’s. Moving into his newly built studio, in the garden, gave him renewed energy to paint and his subject matter was mainly his garden and his self-portraits. These “Self-portraits” depict Leech wearing his black hat, to cover his white and balding head, looking searchingly out towards the viewer, sitting posed in front of his ‘Aloes’ series, painted in the 30’s. He is questioning his life’s work as a painter.In this “Self-portrait” Leech is not wearing his debonair black hat, but captures himself in his casual jacket and open neck shirt, framed by the lighted window onto the garden. Always aware compositionally, he sits to the right, with the edge of the table forming a strong diagonal towards the upright metal bar of the window. Clothes draped casually over the edge of the chair to the left and the green ceramic vase with its darker green plant, all create his studio environment.Leech’s searching expression is now more haunted, with a hint of despair, perhaps reflecting on his long life as a painter, during which he did not achieve the promise of his early success. When he wrote to Leo Smith, of the Dawson Gallery in 1966, he recognized this failure; “You see not much success really but you cannot be a recluse all your life as I have been and have worldly success. I had an idea when young, that if the work was good enough it would sell in the end. The end is the word……”This is one of the last “Self-portraits” Leech painted and it maintains all the dexterity and skill the painter possessed. When his second wife May died on 10th July 1963, aged eighty-three years, Leech was a very lonely man and 5 years later on 16th July 1968 at age eighty-eight, after being diagnosed as terminally ill, Leech fell from the railway bridge at West Clandon onto the tracks below.Dr Denise FerranAugust 2021

Nina Hamnett (British, 1890-1956)Rooftops signed 'Hamnett' (lower left)oil on canvas53.4 x 36.8 cm. (21 x 14 1/2 in.)Footnotes:ProvenanceThe Artist, from whom acquired byFrank Griffith, thence by descentPrivate Collection, U.K.Nina Hamnett was born in Wales and studied at the London School of Art and also in Paris. During, and following, her studies she forged friendships with a wide circle of the most respected creatives of the time including Henri Gaudier-Brzeska (for whom she posed nude), Ezra Pound, Pablo Picasso and Jean Cocteau, in addition to sexual relationships with Amadeo Modigliani and Roger Fry to name but two. She gained notoriety for a wildly unconventional attitude (having once danced naked on a café table in Montparnasse 'just for the hell of it'), was a heavy drinker and openly bisexual and promiscuous, all of which earned her the informal title of 'The Queen of Bohemia'. Yet in spite of her flamboyant reputation, she was a serious artist in her own right and greatly admired by Walter Sickert, who attempted (and failed) to guide her professional development. Her work was exhibited widely during the First World War at both the Royal Academy in London and the Salon d'Automne in Paris and in 1932, she published Laughing Torso (an auto-biographical account of her controversial life) which became a bestseller in the U.K. and U.S. Sadly, however, in the years that followed she was consumed by alcoholism and met an untimely end in 1956 having fallen out of her apartment window and become impaled on the railings below. One of the more interesting characters of the period, Hamnett's work is rarely seen on the open market with the present example having previously been in the collection of her artist friend Frank Griffith (1889-1979) whom she met in Paris.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ARAR Goods subject to Artists Resale Right Additional Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

An important Chamberlain Worcester cabinet plate by Thomas Baxter, circa 1820In the 'Regent' body, the rim moulded with shells and gadrooning picked out in gold, the cavetto fully painted with an arrangement of seashells on a richly grained wooden tabletop, the shells including a paper nautilus and a wentletrap, the panel outlined with a fine black line and surrounded by a wide gilt band and a formal classical border, 21.4cm diam, red script mark referring to New Bond Street addressFootnotes:ProvenanceBonhams sale, 7 December 2005, lot 254Twinight CollectionIllustrated by John Sandon, Worcester Porcelain (2009), p.21. For the same shells arranged on a grey marble table top, see the celebrated Swansea plate by Thomas Baxter in the National Museum of Wales (NMW A 38267), illustrated by John O Wilstead and Bernard Morris, Thomas Baxter The Swansea Years 1816-19 (1997), p.38. Baxter returned to Worcester after leaving Swansea, working first for the Flight, Barr and Barr partnership before moving to Chamberlain where he replicated this extraordinary still life scene.In the Museum of Royal Worcester is a pair of Chamberlain plates painted by Thomas Baxter with still lives of fruit. These had remained in the works collection and were acquired by R W Binns for his first museum. The panels on these plate and the present lot mirror a style that Thomas Baxter had used on Coalport plates painted twelve years earlier while he was in London. In June 1820, Chamberlain supplied to John Eversley '30 dessert plates, gadroon and gold with fine paintings of fruit', at a cost of £2 17s. 6d. each- a considerable sum. Presumably these thirty plates had different still life subjects by Baxter and it is likely the present lot with shells was part of this special commission.Baxter is justifiably famous for his shell painting. Examples painted while he was at Flights factory include panels that were titled by Baxter himself 'shells from nature'. In other words, instead of just copying prints of shells, Baxter drew real shells and he would have borrowed actual specimens from collectors. Lewis Dillwyn, proprietor of the Swansea factory owned a notable shell collection, but as Wilstead noted (op cit, pp.37-38), it is unlikely Baxter's Swansea plate was painted from any of Dillwyn's shells. The precious wentletrap shell, named from the Dutch for 'spiral staircase', was once considered to be extremely rare and in the mid 18th century some specimens were sold to collectors for enormous sums. Even as late as 1786 an example belonging to the Duchess of Portland sold at auction for seven guineas. Placing a wentletrap among his shell composition, Thomas Baxter was possibly appealing to wealthy patrons from his time in London, who would have appreciated such a valuable specimen.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ** VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
