(2)Luristan bronzes are small cast and decorated objects from the Early Iron Age (first millennium BC) which have been found in large numbers in Lorestan province and Kermanshah in western Iran. They include a great number of ornaments, tools, weapons, horse fittings, and a smaller number of vessels including situlae and are characterized by a wide range of idiosyncratic forms and a highly stylized conception of human and animal representation. Those from recorded excavations were generally found in burials. The ethnicity of the people who created them remains unclear, though they may well have been Iranian, possibly related to the modern Lur people who have given their name to the area. Luristan bronze objects came to the notice of the world art market from the late 1920s onwards. They were excavated in considerable quantities by local people and are found today in many of the world's most important museums.Museum comparison:Compare a closely related Luristan wet stone with a bronze ram finial, dated 1000-800 BC, in the Louvre Museum, accession number AO 20866.

ERIC SLOANE (AMERICAN 1905-1985) CLOUDSCAPEsigned and inscribed ERIC SLOANE A.N.A. lower leftoil on board 59 x 120.5cm; 23 1/4 x 47 1/2in83.5 x 145cm; 33 x 57in (framed)Property from a London CollectionBaptised Everard Jean Hinrichs and raised in New York, as a boy Sloane studied type design and art with his neighbour the noted typographer Frederic Goudy, and thanks to the pioneering aviator Wiley Post experienced flying at a precociously young age, experiences which gave him a love of painting and a life-long fascination for the sky. Sloane first worked in his 'teens as a commercial artist, sign painting and creating advertisements for the likes of tobacco companies Red Man and Bull Durham. Then he enrolled at the Art Students League of New York where he changed his name. Subsequently settling in Lichfield County, Connecticut, where he was inspired by the Hudson River School of artists, Sloane became fascinated by Americana and the American folk tradition. He wrote prolifically on every day life during the Colonial-era, from tools to architecture, farming techniques to folklore and became friends with the landscape painter Andrew Wyeth. In the 1950s he spent time in Taos New Mexico, attracted by the vast desert landscapes and the state's huge ecocative skies. One of his best known works is the skyscape mural, Earth Flight Environment, commissioned by the Smithsonian's Air and Space Museum for its opening in 1976, which remains on display there in the Independence Avenue Lobby. Sloane has a museum dedicated to his life and work in Kent, Connecticut.
