ROPEOne-Sheet (27" x 41")Fine Folded Warner Bros., 1948Here is a great one sheet for this classic film, the second of Hitchcock's "limited settings" films (the first being Lifeboat [1944]) and the first of his films to be shot in color, with a great color image of Stewart that is sure to please any fan of Hitchcock, Stewart, or classic cinema.From the Hitchcock thriller, this folded poster is unrestored. It only has some insect damage in the lower border but does not affect the image or copyright. This would be a perfect candidate for restoration.The film follows two students (John Dall and Farley Grainger) who kill a former classmate in an attempt to prove their intellectual superiority by committing a "perfect" murder. They hide the body in a trunk in their living room and then host a dinner party - complete with the murdered boy's parents as guests - with the trunk containing the body used as a buffet table. James Stewart must sift through the web of lies to uncover the truth. Hitchcock filmed the picture in such a way that it seems to be shot in a single continuous take, allowing the audience to follow the events of the party in real time as the inevitable conclusion looms ever closer.

â—† SAMUEL JOHN PEPLOE R.S.A. (SCOTTISH 1871-1935) STILL LIFE WITH TULIPS Signed, oil on canvas Dimensions:51cm x 51cm (20in x 20in) Provenance:Provenance: Mr & Mrs John B. RankinPrivate Collection ScotlandExhibited: Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, Edinburgh, S. J. Peploe 1871-1935, 26 June - 8 September 1985, no.78 Note: Still Life with Tulips is a remarkable painting by Samuel John Peploe, in which he brought to bear the Edwardian sophistication of the work with which he made his professional name in turn-of-the-century Edinburgh, the lessons he learnt at the heart of the Parisian art world before World War One and the progress he made during the conflict from which he emerged as a Scottish master of modern art.In an image of striking design, which remains as arresting now as when it was painted, Peploe set up his still-life arrangement in front of a sheer black background. This shows the silhouettes and bright colours of the cloth-covered table, glass vase and tulips to the greatest possible effect. He had used this approach in a celebrated series of still lifes painted in the early 1900s, such as Coffee and Liqueur (Kelvingrove Museum and Art Gallery, acc.no.35.586), Peonies (National Galleries of Scotland, acc.no. GMA 1946) and Still Life (Edinburgh Museums and Galleries, acc.no.CAC4/1964), in which Peploe paid his respects to Dutch Old Masters such as Frans Hals and to Eduoard Manet. Paintings such as these proved extremely popular when included in solo and group exhibitions in Edinburgh and London of the period, establishing Peploe as an artist of note and accomplishment.Encouraged by his friend and fellow Scottish Colourist, John Duncan Fergusson, Peploe spent two key years in Paris from 1910 until 1912. He was welcomed into Fergusson’s avant-garde Anglo-American circle of friends, the Rhythmists, and immersed himself in the very latest developments in French painting, experienced at first hand. Such was the pace of his development that he was elected a sociétaire of the cutting-edge Salon d’Automne in recognition of his contribution to the modern movement. His paintings became bolder in technique, colour and design, their progressive nature quite unlike anything that had been created, or seen, in the Edinburgh art world to which he returned two years later.Declared medically unfit for service during World War One, Peploe used the period for continuing experimentation, when canvas and paints could be sourced. Rich colour, spatial compression and a strong structure became the foundation of his still lifes, with furrowed brushstrokes and pronounced outlines coming to the fore. In 1917, he moved studio to 54 Shandwick Place in Edinburgh, where he was to remain until 1934. The following year, his election as an Associate member of the Royal Scottish Academy secured his place within the Scottish art establishment.As Alice Strang has written ‘The still lifes which Peploe painted during the period between approximately 1918 and 1923 are the works for which he is best known…Peploe changed his technique, adopting an absorbent gesso ground and reducing the amount of medium in his paint. He pushed his use of colour to the extreme and obsessively arranged objects – such as blue-and-white Chinese porcelain vases, filled initially with tulips and then usually with roses; fans; books; fruit in a variety of dishes…to create finely balanced compositions.’ (Alice Strang et al, S. J. Peploe, National Galleries of Scotland, Edinburgh, 2012, p.23)Still Life with Tulips dates from this exceptional immediate post-war period, before Peploe settled into the rose still lifes which he painted, exhibited and sold in great numbers during the 1920s. During this period he worked particularly closely with his other fellow Scottish Colourist, F. C. B. Cadell and the two shared an interest in a style which was to become known as ‘Art Deco’ following the Exposition international des arts décoratifs et industriels modernes held in Paris in 1925.At this point, tulips were Peploe’s preferred flower, often bought from stalls on nearby Princes Street. His enjoyment of their strongly-coloured stems, leaves and heads comes to the fore in their balletic presentation here. Their reaching, curving and swooning qualities, in all directions, is played out in the very frontal plane of the image to the right and in an effusion of movement from the vase. The simplified forms of the boldly-coloured petals play against the black and white planes in front of which they are positioned.Throughout, Peploe plays with notions of the space beyond the canvas, with just the angled corner of the table included, whilst the cropped fan, red tulip above it and emerging tulips to the right allude to a continuation of the narrative beyond the viewer’s gaze. The realisation not only of the translucency of the water in the vase and the stems within it, but also its reflection of the space within which the artist was working, is a tour de force passage.Given the brilliance of his tulip still lifes, it is little surprise that his painting, Tulips, of 1923, was acquired for the British national collection in 1927 (Tate, acc.no. NO4224), the year in which Peploe attained the rank of full Member of the Royal Scottish Academy. His appointment was announced in the Glasgow Herald, which described him as ‘an artist of the new movement, Mr Peploe is outstanding in Scotland, and his work has received recognition in London and abroad as well as at home.’ (10 February 1927) Indeed, Peploe’s legacy is primarily based on his mastery of the still life genre, of which Still Life with Tulips is an exceptional example.

A gilt-metal mounted Meissen porcelain rectangular snuff-box and cover, c.1755-60, the exterior painted with figures in landscape gardens next to monuments and sheep, within rococo scroll-moulded cartouches, the interior of the cover stippled with a portrait of a finely dressed lady seated by a table and holding a saucer of steaming coffee up to her mouth, a Meissen coffee pot beside her, within an elaborate gilt floral cartouche, 9cm wideFootnotes: Note: For a scalloped-shaped Meissen snuff-box stippled on the interior of the cover with a lady within a similar gilt cartouche, see Sarah-Katharina Acevedo et al., Meissen Snuff Boxes of the Eighteenth Century, Munich, 2013, pp. 328-329, Cat. no. 100, where it is noted that the interior scene is derived from an engraving by Johann Esaias Nilson, Zeit-vertreib der Frauenzimmer (The Amusements of the Fair Sex).  The painting style of the lady on the interior of the cover is the same as the lady on the interior of the present box, suggesting that the same painter was the author of both interior scenes. Condition Report: The lid has been broken and professionally restored, examination under UV light reveals two repaired cracks across the left and middle.  Possible further restoration to the box interior.  A chip to the reverse bottom edge of the box.

In the manner of Benjamin Zobel, German-British, 1762-1830, a sand picture of a recumbent tiger, early 19th century, with inset glass eyes, framed and glazed, the picture - 34.5 x 43.5cm, the frame - 41 x 50cm Footnotes: Note: The ancient Japanese art of creating bon-kei or 'tray pictures' was already known, but it is Benjamin Zobel (1762-1831) who is credited with introducing the technique of sand painting in England. A native of Memmingen in Bavaria (Swabia), Zobel was employed by the Prince Regent's chef Louis Weltje, as a 'Table Decker' at Windsor Castle. The custom of 'Table Decking' had been introduced into England by George III and it involved the cloth at dinner being elaborately decorated with ephemeral designs of coloured sands, marble dust and powdered glass or bread crumbs. Zobel also became a skilled confectioner and was entrusted to create pictures in coloured sugars to decorate huge tarts served at Royal banquets. The method he employed for making sugar patterns was apparently identical to that which he used to make his sand pictures.

DIAMOND SINGLE-STONE RING, 19TH CENTURYThe Peruzzi-cut diamond, weighing 6.56 carats, mounted in silver and gold, ring size IFootnotes:The first brilliant-cut diamonds were introduced during the mid-17th century. This new style of cutting was known as the 'Mazarin'. The Mazarin-cut featured seventeen facets on the crown and the resulting fire and brilliance was incomparably better than the earlier rose-cut had achieved. It is largely agreed that Vincenzo Peruzzi, a diamond cutter from Venice, was the first person to cut a diamond with 56 facets, a table, and a culet, for a total of 58 facets. The resulting 'Peruzzi-cut' significantly increased the fire and brilliance previously achieved in the 'Mazarin-cut'. Peruzzi-cuts are exceedingly difficult to find because they were only made for about 20 years during the late 19th century. For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

It is possible that he may have been an apprentice in the workshop of Castellani, an idea supported by the clear similarities in styles and subject matter. In 1846 he opened his own shop in Florence, later moving to a Renaissance palazzo at 20 Piazza di Spagna, next to the Spanish Steps in Rome. Today the building is a national monument and regarded as one of the most important historic buildings in Rome. Renamed Palazzo Pierret, his name can still be seen above the entrance. His pieces are marked either with a monogram or signature, both of which are applied to the piece on a small gold plaque or tab.Please note, this lot has VAT at the prevailing rate on both the Hammer Price and Buyer's Premium.
