A WORCESTER HEXAGONAL VASE AND COVER circa 1770, painted in colours with exotic birds amongst fruiting plants, the powder blue ground with gilt foliage, 40cm highProvenance: The collection of Sir George ArmytagePreviously sold at Christie's on 4th June 1962, lot 60 and 9th February 1981, lot 122Bought at Kirklees House Sale, conducted by Phillips on 9th June 1987, lot 131The collection of the late Anthony du Boulay FSA (1929-2022)and thence by descent.Anthony du Boulay FSA (1929-2022)Anthony joined Christie's in 1949 and initially worked on the front counter, which gave him a practical education in all things sold at auction. This excellent foundation enabled him to move to on to the furniture department. In 1956 he was appointed Head of the Porcelain Department, which covered all ceramics. He became a Director in 1963 and in 1965 he handed over the running of the European Ceramics department so that he could concentrate on Chinese ceramics, which had become his chief love. He became President of Christie's Geneva in 1967 and set up their saleroom in New York in 1976. Latterly, he spent two years in Paris. After retiring from Christie's in 1980, Anthony became Honorary Adviser on Ceramics to the National Trust of England and Wales. Between 1981 and 1983 he was given the fascinating job of separating items of national importance left to the nation in lieu of inheritance tax from those either given to the National Trust, or still owned by the family.
*HENRI MATISSE (1869-1954) 'Jeunes Filles et Fleurs' two girls sitting at a table with a vase of flowers and an open menu bearing the title 'Thé' (tea), signed and dated "Mai 47" lower left, ink on paper, 36.2cm x 54.6cmProvenance: Schoneman Galleries, Inc. 63 East 57th Street, New York 22, NY., #9196 H. Matisse 'Jeune Filles et Fleurs' ink drwg. (old #6806)This work, number M119 in the Matisse archive has been authenticated by Marguerite Duthuit-Matisse, daughter of the artist, dated Paris, November 2, 1966, stating that the work was executed in Nice. It is not a page from a sketch book, rather a preparatory work for a series of fully realised paintings of a similar size, which date from May and June of the same year and are evidently based on this simple outline.The work offered here appears to be Matisse's first impression of a scene which he subsequently fleshed out in charcoal and then in ink and brush work and later worked up into numerous paintings entitled 'La Lecture' (reading) or which begin 'Deux Fillettes' (two girls) followed by the dominant colours to distinguish one from another - 'Deux fillettes, fond corail, jardin bleu' and 'Deux fillettes, fond jaune et rouge', both in the Barnes Foundation, Merion, Pennsylvania.Henri Matisse (1869-1954) Henri Matisse is commonly hailed, along with Pablo Picasso, as one of the most influential artists of the 20th century. He was instrumental in the development of Fauvism, Modernism and Post Impressionism. This work, however, was produced towards the end of his life but in the midst of what he termed his "second life". He had been diagnosed with cancer in 1941 and the treatment left him wheelchair bound and with various other medical issues but lead to a period of intense creativity. By 1950, as painting became more difficult, he invented a new medium - his famous cut outs.
