American Impressionist Leads Skinner Sale

August 23, 2011

There are works by better known artists than Theodore Robinson at Skinner’s auction of paintings, prints and photographs early next month – Andy Warhol, Alexander Calder, and Maurice Utrillo are just a few. There are no more highly valued paintings, however, than the noted American Impressionist’s “Hansom Cabs,” an evocative late 19th century depiction of New York carriages that’s estimated at $120,000-180,000.

Among the other highly estimated lots at the September 9th auction are Maurice Utrillo’s Parisian cityscape “Impasse Trainee sous la Neige a Montmartre”(est. $100,000-150,000), Alexander Calder’s playful sculpture “Shoe With Split Heel” (est. $30,000-50,000), and an oil by French artist Eugene Louis Boudin, “Les Bords de la Touques a Troubille Pendant les Grandes Marees”(est. $70,000-90,000). In addition, Skinner will offer several Warhol prints, including “Geronimo” (est. $15,000-20,000), and a 17th century Rembrandt, “Old Man With Beard” (est. $6,000-8,000).

She weighed 4,368 pounds, was 11-feet long, stood 7-feet tall and became famous as she toured England for the yokels who paid to see her. An unknown artist did her portrait that sold at Bonhams London last night for $25,568.

Maritime Art At Bonhams

January 22, 2013

In the mid-19th century, when sailing vessels ruled the seas, stormy voyages were a favorite theme of maritime artists. One of the most accomplished was James Edward Buttersworth, whose masterpiece may be his depiction, circa 1855, of the famous Clipper ship Flying Cloud emerging from a hurricane. When the painting comes up for auction later this week at Bonhams’ Maritime Paintings & Decorative Arts sale in New York, it’s expected to realize $200,000-$300,000.
