Orestis KANELLIS Greek, 1910-1979     Woman and flowers signed lower right watercolour on paper 34 x 49 cm   PROVENANCE private collection, Athens   Kanellis was born in Smyrna and died in Athens. He studied for two years at the Medical school, The University of Athens. He abandoned his studies and moved to Paris where he had free studies in painting, mainly at the Academia de la Grande Chaumiere. His subject matter was mainly landscapes with emphasis on olive trees and seascapes. In Paris Kanellis met Stratis Eleftheriades Teriade, a fan of his work, and George Gounaropoulos who taught him a lot on the art of painting. He presented his work in 1934 at The Venice Biennale and in 1954 at The Alexandria Bienale. He exhibited his work in Greece, New York, Moscow, Stockholm, Lugarno, Brussels, and so on. His work can be found in many public and private collections in Greece and Cyprus: notably at The National Gallery, Athens, The Athens Municipality Collection and The Leventis Gallery, Nicosia. 

Tristram ELLIS British, 1844-1922   A view of the Acropolis signed lower right watercolour over pencil on paper 24.2 x 21.3 cm   PROVENANCE private collection, Athens   LITERATURE Exploration & Travel, 16 September 2009, Bonhams, London, lot 152   Ellis was born in Great Malvern in 1844. At school, he excelled in mathematics, and while he did study drawing, he disliked the emphasis placed on copying rather than original art. In 1862, Ellis went to Kings College, London where during his second year earned the highest distinction in the Applied Sciences department in the college's history. He won all the scholarships offered by the college and was awarded the Associateship of Kings College after only two years' study, in recognition of his exceptional achievements. After university, Ellis completed a pupilage under the railway engineer Sir John Fowler and became a partner in a firm of engineers. After several years there, Ellis decided that his calling lay in art. As he had sufficient means to support himself, he abandoned engineering and devoted his time to painting. Several of Ellis's early oil paintings were shown at the Royal Academy. Despite this, he felt his technique needed improvement and moved to Paris to study under Leon Bonnat. After his studies in Paris, Ellis began to travel. In 1878, he spent six months in Cyprus, then under British occupation. He returned with around fifty watercolors that were all sold to a dealer after their exhibition in Bond Street in 1879. This success encouraged him to plan a more ambitious trip, and in 1879 he boarded a steamship for Alexandria with the aim of visiting Syria, Asia Minor and Mesopotamia. After his return to London, he showed about ninety watercolors from his travels, and sold them immediately.Ellis also wrote a two-volume illustrated account of his trip, ‘On a Raft, and Through the Desert’, which was published in 1881. Ellis's next trip was to Egypt in the spring of 1882 where he spent three weeks at the Pyramids. Several years later, Ellis made another trip to the eastern Mediterranean, where he spent time in Athens, and had three watercolors selected by George I of Greece.

A Chinese watercolour on pith paper illustrating the production of tea , China Trade School, circa 1820-1850, originally part of a larger set , framed 63.5cm x 55cm The tradition of Chinese watercolour and gouache painting was one firmly rooted in the export market, where scenes of westerners and western-bound goods were very common, and the finest became some of the most sought after items of the export trade. Particularly in the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, watercolours depicting porcelain, silk, rice and especially tea production were often put together in sets of twelve or more individual sheets. The present sheet follow this tradition firmly, the quality and exceptional attention to detail reaffirming the importance of tea to both China and the West.
