Isaac Pailes (French, 1895-1978)Still life signed 'Pailes' (upper left)oil on canvas73 x 50cm (28 3/4 x 19 11/16in).Painted c. 1913Footnotes:Isaac Pailes grew up in a family of goldsmiths. His maternal grandfather was a wood engraver. At the age of thirteen, following in the footsteps of his grandfather, Isaac took an interest in engraving and in sculpture. His first sculptures are exhibited in museums in Kiev. In 1910, he enrolled in the School of Fine Arts in Kiev, where he met Issachar Ryback and Max Kaganovitch, who became his dealers forty years later. With his father's help, Isaac Pailes arrived in Paris in 1913. He shared a room with Mané- Katz and studied sculpture for a year at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris. One year later, he decided to return to Kiev and stole money from in the Russian embassy to go to Russia via London, Norway, Sweden, and Finland. When the Revolution broke out in Russia, he was sent to the Crimean front. As he refused to fight, he escaped and managed to embark on a ship without any papers or ticket. In exchange for a gold ring, the captain dropped him off in Constantinople. Pailes' dream was to return to Paris where he arrived in 1919 and went straight to the café La Rotonde to meet his friends Michel Kikoine and Isaac Dobrinsky. Initially, he worked as a model in order to earn his living. In 1920, he gave up sculpture for painting and started to collect tribal art. He then got in touch with the art lovers of the time: police chief Zamaron and dealers Paquereau and Georges Bernheim. Attached to his Slav origins, Pailes participated in the activities of the Russian Artists Society, which was set up by Russian artists in Montparnasse and presided by Wildhopff. When World War II broke out, Pailes settled in the Pyrénées - Orientales and later in the Auvergne region. He then joined a group of Resistance fighters in Rochefort. Following the Liberation, he returned to his studio in Montparnasse and continued to paint. In 1948, Isaac Pailes produced his first abstract works.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

George Catlin (1796 - 1872) "Buffalo Hunt on Snow Shoes" [Pl. 15] London: 1844. Hand-coloured lithograph by Day & Haghe. A fine image from Catlin's 'North American Indian Portfolio', one of the most important accounts of Native American life. "In this plate is illustrated the mode... of the Indians hunting in the depth of the winter, running on their snow-shoes, which support them on the surface of the snow, whilst the great weight of the buffalo and other animals sinks them down and fastens them in the drifts of the snow." [From Catlin's text, North American Indian Portfolio.] Catlin summarized the Native American as "an honest, hospitable, faithful, brave, warlike, cruel, revengeful, relentless, -- yet honourable, contemplative and religious being". In a famous passage from the preface of his North American Indian Portfolio, Catlin describes how the sight of several tribal chiefs in Philadelphia led to his resolution to record their way of life: "the history and customs of such a people, preserved by pictorial illustrations, are themes worthy of the lifetime of one man, and nothing short of the loss of my life shall prevent me from visiting their country and becoming their historian". He saw no future for either their way of life or their very existence, and with these thoughts always at the back of his mind he worked, against time, setting himself a truly punishing schedule, to record what he saw. From 1832 to 1837 he spent the summer months sketching the tribes and then finished his pictures in oils during the winter. The record he left is unique, both in its breadth and also in the sympathetic understanding that his images constantly demonstrate. A selection of the greatest of images from this record were published in the North American Indian Portfolio in an effort to reach as wide an audience as possible. The present image is one of the results of this publishing venture and is both a work of art of the highest quality and a fitting memorial to a vanished way of life. Image Size: 12 x 17.75 in. Overall Framed Size: 21 x 25.5 in. Framed behind glass.
