Provenance: Through the collection of James A. Schalk, Cincinnati, Ohio; private Cincinnati collection.

N.B. We wish to thank Dr. Jens Christian Jensen for his expertise on the basis of transparencies, a copy of his opinion accompanies the lot. The following is abridged and translated from his German expertise: The present work appears to be the final version of Der Briefträger, which has been known heretofore through a preliminary oil on paperboard study (Wichmann, 515), and an intermediate oil on canvas study (Wichmann, 516). As the largest and most carefully detailed version of Der Briefträger known, it follows the three-step work process (i.e. preliminary oil study, intermediate oil study, final “sales” version) commonly used by Spitzweg, and was likely commissioned for a specific buyer. It is painted on A. Schutzmann canvas, which Spitzweg used almost exclusively for his final “sales” pictures, as it was an excellent quality and expensive support. The discovery of the present work gives context to the studies of Der Briefträger. Compared to the intermediate study, this final version shows not only enriched details and a larger format, but also a concentrated and rich color differentiation, as is characteristic of his major works. The subject of the painting is an enchanting depiction of the excitement of receiving a letter. The anticipation and curiosity that Spitzweg creates in the composition transforms what would be a typical genre scene into a psychological drama. $70,000-90,000

Provenance: Formerly on loan to a New England cultural institution from a private New England collection.

N.B. Robert Spear Dunning, co-founder of the Fall River School of still life painting, was raised in Fall River from the age of five. At the young age of fifteen, he apprenticed with James Roberts in Tiverton, Rhode Island, and at the age of twenty, enrolled in the National Academy of Design where he studied with Daniel Huntington. Upon completing his studies, he returned to Fall River in 1852. Dunning founded the Fall River School with the opening of his studio on Fall River’s Main Street in 1853. By 1865, he narrowed his genre to still lifes, earning accolades and patrons for his lush, meticulously detailed arrangements. He became a master of reflective surfaces. His arrangements were most frequently composed of ripened fruit, often with one cut open, flowers, and opulent Victorian objects set on a highly polished table top. His success, and that of other artists of the area, was further bolstered by the influx of wealth to Fall River following the Civil War, when the city rose to prominence as the largest producer of cotton cloth in the world. It was an unusual choice for Dunning to feature root vegetables—onions, potatoes, carrots, and turnip, the makings of a soup or stew, ready for cooking in the brass pot—set upon a stuccoed brick surface. Dunning elevated the humble status of these vegetables with his meticulous craftsmanship, yet still portrayed them as the honest ingredients of a meal to be made. With the subtle light, restrained palette, and minimal background detail, the painting, in terms of both subject matter and style, was much in harmony with the work of Jean-Baptist Siméon Chardin (French, 1699-1779), whose works were very influential among American still life painters of the 19th century. Dunning’s work was exhibited at the National Academy of Design, the American Art Union, the Boston Art Club, and the Providence Art Club, and is in the collections of numerous museums including the National Museum of American Art. $70,000-90,000

In 1875 he made a summer excursion to visit Boston and to sketch in the White Mountains.

Provenance: Purchased from a private collection, Leyden, Massachusetts.

N.B. Noted American Impressionist Robert Reid was born in Stockbridge, Massachusetts. He studied at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and at the Art Students League in New York, before heading to Paris to the Academie Julian in the fall of 1885. Returning to the United States in 1889, Reid settled in New York to paint and teach. Shortly thereafter in 1892, he began the major public mural commissions which would distinguish his career. In 1898 Reid joined with several other artists, including Childe Hassam and John Twachtman, to found “The Ten,” a loosely-knit group of Impressionists that exhibited together annually until 1919. Reid continued to paint canvases throughout his career, and he exhibited regularly at the National Academy of Design, where he became a full Academician in 1906. Reid’s easel paintings tended to feature single figures, often a young woman holding flowers, set in a landscape or garden, or later dressed in a kimono in an interior setting, but the artist also painted a full range of subjects including landscapes and nudes. The small landscape at hand is dated 1919, about the time Reid relocated to Colorado Springs where he helped to found the Broadmoor Art Academy. Its frame is a manufactured version (compo) of a Stanford White design that was produced by the Newcomb-Macklin Company c. 1920. $12,000-18,000

Sobin), loan no. 49.61.

N.B. Schmidt-Rottluff was a founding member of “Die Brücke,” a group which sought to express “faith in the future, the strength of youth, the value of directness and authenticity, and the rejection of the older forces of the establishment” through art.1 Though this group was active only from 1905 to 1911, the radical anti-academic model they championed helped to bring Expressionism into wide acceptance.

By the time Schmidt-Rottluff received public acclaim for his work, the Nazis were growing in power. In the years leading up to World War II, the Nazis denounced his work as “degenerate,” seizing it from German museums and banning him from painting in 1941.2 He resumed art-making after World War II, returning to Germany from self-imposed exile and teaching at the Hochschule der Bildenden Künste in West Berlin. In 1957, a year before the present work was exhibited at the Busch-Reisinger Museum, Schmidt-Rottluff was awarded a civil class “Pour le Merite” medal by the first German Republican president Theodor Heuss. This order, which originated with the Kingdom of Prussia, recognizes the highest German achievements in the arts.

Provenance: Purchased from a private Massachusetts collection c. 1970 by the present Massachusetts owner.

N.B. Jane Peterson was one of America’s leading Post-Impressionist painters. Educated first at the Pratt Institute and the Art Students League, Peterson also studied abroad in London, Paris, and Madrid in the early years of the 20th century. During this time she was exposed to avant-garde movements which strongly influenced the development of her personal style. She was an adventurous, independent artist and an intrepid traveler, who worked beside other prominent painters of her day, including Joaquin Sorolla, Louis Comfort Tiffany, John Singer Sargent, Childe Hassam, and Maurice Prendergast. Painting in oil, gouache, and watercolor, Peterson explored a great variety of subjects. New England harbors, beaches, and gardens, the Florida coast, the piazzas and canals of Venice, scenes from Europe as

well as exotic locales in Turkey and North Africa, all were inspirations for her brush. With transatlantic travel curtailed at the time of the First World War, Peterson looked to America for subject matter. Between 1916 and 1920, she did a series of garden paintings while touring the United States. Although Peterson rarely dated her works, it is thought that this is the period when she likely executed the painting at hand. The model is one that the artist used in a handful of paintings from the time. The painting is also distinguished by its large size and by its selective palette. Jane Peterson’s joy in painting gardens is well known. In the Appendix of his book on Jane Peterson, J. Jonathan Joseph reproduced an article penned by the artist for The Garden Magazine, September 1922, where she wrote, “When a friend who knows me well wishes to give me a real thrill, he has only to whisper, ‘I know of a new garden where you may paint.’ I adore gardens! They are the most elusive art of a nation.”1

Suddenly, a choir boy “with a face of singular beauty” emerges before Donati from the chancel, stepping into a ray of light from the transept window. Thrilled by this angelic vision, Donati asks the boy to return tomorrow to model for his composition. The youth, flattered to be an artist’s muse, bows humbly and replies “Master, I shall not fail you.” $20,000-40,000

By 1924, Mary F. Gill, a prominent Boston Unitarian, and Beatrix Potter had been corresponding for some years as a result of Gill’s activities with “Friendly Links,” an organization promoting intellectual exchange between British and American Unitarians. Potter, a life-long Unitarian,

invited Gill, along with her sister Rebecca Field, her husband William L.W. Field and their two daughters to visit her in Near Sawrey in July. William Field was then the Headmaster of the prestigious Milton Academy. The Field family became an important link for Potter to an unusually distinguished group of artists and intellectuals in the Boston area all of whom appreciated children’s literature and illustration and who visited Beatrix over the next decade. These new acquaintances were each invited to tea at Castle Cottage, allowed to see Potter’s portfolios, and in many instances given drawings to take home.

The present drawing belongs to the style of Potter’s later work, which is loose in form and detail. It was done as a sketch for the back endpaper of Jemima Puddle-Duck’s Painting Book (1925). Undoubtedly Beatrix had a duplicate unused drawing of the endpaper and inscribed it to Gill on the occasion of her visit, which coincided with Potter’s 58th birthday.

The National Trust holds a duplicate of this drawing, which is catalogued as a drawing for the back endpaper of Jemima Puddle-Duck’s Painting Book under the title “Ewe and Lamb meet a Duckling.” This exact drawing is reproduced in Beatrix Potter’s Americans: Selected Letters, edited by Jane Crowell Morse. (1982):142. Linda Lear discusses Potter’s friendship with Mary Gill, the Fields, and the Boston artistic community in Beatrix Potter: a Life in Nature (2007):315ff. $7,500-8,500

Glazed ceramic, sizes to 7 x 6 x 5 in. (17.8 x 15.2 x 12.7 cm).Condition: Restored break to end of cone.


N.B. Gilhooly was at the center of an experimental pottery movement, later known as California Funk, while studying at the University of California, Davis, under Robert Arneson in 1962. According to Gilhooly, “FrogFood was an idea that started off as the FrogWorld idea of a snapshot or photograph of an artistic act done on a vacation. The frogs of the FrogWorld would go on a vacation, make themselves into a food sculpture under the direction of a professional frogartist, and as a souvenir of the occasion, take home a small sculpture. These small sculptures would then be displayed on a shelf somewhere in the home much like our-world’s photo albums. The frogs would then look at these small pieces and remember their vacations. A special type of FrogFood (sort of X-rated) was made by honeymooning couples and was an off-shoot of this original idea.”1

The present works were created in Gilhooly’s first year of the FrogFood series, and may have originally sold through Hansen-Fuller Gallery, San Francisco. We wish to thank the artist for his assistance with cataloguing the lot. 1. http://www.davidgilhooly.com/04frogfood.htm

1. Some of the lots in this sale are offered subject to a reserve. The reserve is a confidential minimum price agreed upon by the consignor and Skinner, Inc. below which the lot will not be sold. In most cases, the reserve will be set below the estimated range, but in no case will it exceed the estimates listed. A representative of Skinner, Inc. will execute such reserves by bidding for the consignor. In any event and whether or not a lot is subject to a reserve, the auctioneer may reject any bid or raise not commensurate with the value of such lot.

2. All property is sold “as is,” and neither the auctioneer nor any consignor makes any warranties or representation of any kind or nature with respect to the property, and in no event shall they be responsible for the correctness, nor deemed to have made any representation or warranty, of description, genuineness, authorship, attribution, provenance, period, culture, source, origin, or condition of the property and no statement made at the sale, or in the bill of sale, or invoice or elsewhere shall be deemed such a warranty of representation or an assumption of liability.

3. Except as provided in paragraph 1 above, the highest bidder as determined by the auctioneer shall be the purchaser. In the case of a disputed bid, the auctioneer shall have sole discretion in determining the purchaser and may also, at his or her election, withdraw the lot or reoffer the lot for sale.

4. All merchandise purchased must be paid for and removed from the premises the day of the auction. Skinner Inc. may impose, and the purchaser agrees to pay, a monthly interest charge of 1.5% of the purchase price of any lot or item lot not paid for within thirty-five (35) days of the date of sale.

Skinner, Inc. shall have no liability for any damage or loss to property left on its premises for more than three (3) days from the date of sale. If any property has not been removed within three (3) days from the date of sale, at the option of Skinner, Inc. (a) Skinner Inc., may impose, and the purchaser agrees to pay, a monthly storage charge of 1.5% of the purchase price of any lot or portion of a lot not removed within the three days, and/or (b) Skinner Inc. may place the merchandise in a subsequent auction, without Reserve, to be sold to the highest bidder, and after deducting the standard commission and any additional charges that may apply, remit the proceeds to the purchaser.

5. Skinner accepts cash or check for payment.

Import restrictions from foreign countries are subject to these same governing laws. Granting of licensing for import or export of goods from local authorities is the sole responsibility of the buyer. Denial or delay of licensing will not constitute cancellation or delay in payment for the total purchase price of these lots.
