Rare George II Carved Cuban Mahogany Gentleman’s Library Armchair
attributable to Elwick & Wright English c.1755.
Price: £26,500
The chair has a fine 18th Century serpentine shaped back with carved arms and ancanthus leaf decoration to the supports. The unusual cabriole leg with upturned leafwork is crisply carved and of the highest quality and sits brass castors.
The antique chair was at one time owned by the Antiques Dealers, J & W Tweed.
James W Tweed and Harold Tweed joined BADA (British Antique Dealers Association) in July 1952 trading as J. and W. Tweed, 408 and 410 Leeds Road BD3 9RE in Bradford. In 1984 the listing changed to Ilkley, J. and W. Tweed Antiques (H Tweed), 4 Corn Mill, Menston, LS29 6BY. James William Tweed, Harold's brother, died in March 1977 after an illness. Harold continued trading until 1985 and from 1986 was a retired member of BADA (British Antique Dealers Association) Harold then died suddenly on 13 December 1995.
Note: The Wakefield based partnership between Richard Wright & Edward Elwick lasted between 1747-1771 and was the most prominent in Yorkshire in the second half of the 18th century with the same levels of patronage within the county that Gillows was to develop within Lancashire. Their list of patrons was indeed lengthy and distinguished and included the likes of Sir Rowland Winn at Nostell Priory, the Duke of Norfolk at Worksop Manor, Viscount Irwin at Temple Newsam House, John Spencer at Cannon Hall and most notably, the Marquis of Rockingham at Wentworth Woodhouse. This early antique piece bears all the hallmarks of the Wright & Elwick workshop, a Chippendale design with fine early construction.

In May 1977, two years after the death of the dictator Franco, Miró said "Now I have great hopes for the future. Aidez l'Espagne, which I did in 1937, is exactly forty years old. It's clear now that the lines I wrote about the drawing of the Catalan peasant were prophetic; I can already see the immense creative resources of the Spanish people imposing themselves against the obsolote forces with that impulse which will surprise the world. And in Catalonia it has already started, with more force than before, with a great power of invention." And it was he himself who brought out a potent energy in redefining his alphabets, insisting on his obsessions, affirming evermore is role as painter and amplifying his pictorial universe. This painting refined luminosity of the background of the japanese paper in this work.

Bronze sculpture with brown patina

Size: 15⅜ ins ((39 cms) high)
Conceived in 1965 and cast in an edition of 6
Frink began exploring the theme of birds of prey in the late 1950s and continued throughout the 1960s. It proved to be a particularly fertile theme for her, and one which enabled her to express and convey her attitudes to war and, in particular, aggression.
Unlike contemporaries such as Reg Butler and Lynn Chadwick who similarly explored this theme, Frink was able to imbue her works with a strong physiological content and latent terror. Her birds are shown as though stalking their prey, raised on long thin legs as in New Bird II; the body, head and beak are reduced to one form, transforming the bird into a fighting machine and an image of invincibility.

Jackson painted this view of Mont Blanc from the top of the Chamonix valley above Argentière. The Aiguilles de Chamonix, or Needles of Chamonix can be clearly seen to the left of Mont Blanc. Jackson visited Switzerland twice, in 1854 and 1858, when Chamonix was still a small village. Although the first luxury hotel was built in 1816, it only gained proper road access in 1866 under the reign of Napoleon III, when the first horse-drawn coaches alighted in the village square.
