§ Breon O'Casey (British 1928-2011) Study for Éan Mór, circa 2006 III/V, initialled and numbered (to underside of base), patinated bronze, marble baseDimensions:20cm high, 20cm wide (7 7/8in high, 7 7/8in wide) excluding baseProvenance:When originally purchased from the artist, O'Casey sent a note explaining 'I enclose a token of thanks for all your trouble...It's a maquette of the big one...Breon'.Note: The large scale Éan Mór is situated at Phoenix Park, Dublin. "It’s odd, but although my paintings are almost always abstract, my sculptures arealmost always of some animal, bird or person. I don’t know why this is; but maybepainting is a language - a language writ on hardboard, paper or canvas. The languageof colour and form - as John Wells says: “whereas sculpture is objects”. And an object,unless it be a stone, must be of something." (Breon O'Casey)

§ Émile Gilioli (French 1911-1977) Le Glacier, 1961 signed and dated (to underside), polished marbleDimensions:27cm high, 29cm wide, 20cm deep (10 5/8in high, 11 3/8in wide, 7 7/8in deep)Provenance:Provenance:World House Galleries, New York, 1962;Joseph H. Hirshhorn, New York, 1962-1966;Gift to the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington;Christie's, Modern Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture, 23 February 1994, lot 90 where sold by the Order of the Trustees of the Hirshhorn Museum.Note: Émile Gilioli was one of the pre-eminent sculptors of the new abstract movement in France in the 1950s. He believed that the foremost challenge in sculpture was the synthesis of architecture and art, and that the choice of material, whether it be marble, onyx, bronze, lapis-lazuli, agate, alabaster or cement, was of utmost importance in shaping the form of the object. Having studied at the École des Beaux-Arts in the 1930s, the influences of the pre-war Paris school of artists such as Brancusi and Henri Laurens clearly shine through in his work. After World War Two he associated and exhibited with leading avant-garde artists of the period including Giacometti, Picasso and Soulages. This included being Vice-President of the leading abstract collective, Espace, initiated by André Bloch, Le Corbusier and Fernand Léger. Gilioli went on to exhibit internationally and his work is held at major institutions such as Tate, London, the Museum of Modern Art, New York and the Museu de Arte Moderna, São Paulo. Gilioli was honoured with a retrospective after his death at the Musée National d’Art Moderne, Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris in 1979.

§ Denis Mitchell (British 1912-1993) Untitled, 1969 unique, initialled and dated (to underside of base), brassDimensions:26cm x 2.5cm (10 1/4in x 1in) excluding baseProvenance:Provenance: Commissioned by the artist George Dannatt and thence by family descent;Askew Art, London, where acquired by the present owner.Note: Exhibited: Maltby Contemporary Art, Winchester; Rosenberg & Co., New York.Literature: George Dannatt and Friends, exhibition catalogue, Osborne Samuel, London, 2015, p.50, illustrated p.62; Modern British Masters, Rosenberg & Co., New York,2017.Note: This unique sculpture, dating from 1969, was a commission from Denis Mitchell’s friend, the art connoisseur turned painter George Dannatt. Initially Mitchell’s sculptural work was characterised by direct carving of wood and stone, skills developed in his war service work in the Geevor tin mine, before he spent ten years as assistant to Barbara Hepworth. Mitchell explained; ‘we carved side by side . . . I was her hands.’ By the late 1960s he had developed an assured approach in the casting of both brass and bronze to create polished and dynamic sculpture. His love of pure form shines through in this deceptively simple work; the jagged edges, pierced holes and shining warm surface divide, reflect and reveal the light and space around and behind the slim form, conjuring a potent presence much greater than its stature.

MIGUEL ORTIZ BERROCAL (Villanueva de Algaidas, Malaga, 1933 - Antequera, Malaga, 2006)."Micro David", 1971.Nickel-plated metal. With golden metal chain.Signed on the arm.Detachable sculpture: 17 elements.Measurements: 6 x 2,5 x 1,5 cm.Miguel Ortiz Berrocal showed a special predilection for articulated and detachable sculptures. Inspired by the main creative forces of the first half of 1900, the artist sought his own artistic path. He drew his inspiration from science and created works based on mathematical, physical and scientific principles. He also developed the concept of "dismountability", understood as the process of searching for the inner forms of volumes, which implies that sculptures are composed of elements that have to be assembled and disassembled in order to penetrate their invisible space.Berrocal began his training at the Escuela de Artes y Oficios in Madrid, where he was a pupil of Ángel Ferrant. He then went on to the San Fernando School of Fine Arts, where he was a pupil of Ramón Stolz. He complemented his training with work as a draughtsman in the studio of the architect Casto Fernández Shaw and as an assistant to several architects in Rome between 1952 and 1954. During his stay in Paris in 1955, he finally decided to devote himself to sculpture. His early works show the influence of Chillida, while at the same time denoting his preference for articulated and detachable forms in bronze. The difficulty involved in making each of his sculptures led him to decide to produce them in series. With this idea in mind, he produced two hundred copies of the sculpture "Maria de la O", for which he received the prize for sculpture at the Paris Biennale and which was later acquired by the MOMA in New York. In 1966 he settled permanently in Verona, and from 1968 he alternated his work between monumental and small-scale works. Together with several gallery owners, he founded the Società Multicétera, the first industry of small sculptures. He has exhibited in Italy, France, Germany, Spain and the United States, received the gold medal of the Bronze of Padua, the Grand Prize of Honour at the Brazil Biennial, and was named Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters by the French government. He has sculptures in public places in Korea, Bordeaux, Denmark and Switzerland, as well as in various places in Spain. He is represented in the Museums of Modern Art in New York and Paris, the Olympic Museum in Lausanne, the Kunsthalle in Hamburg, the Juan March Foundation in Madrid, the National Gallery in Rome and the Victoria & Albert Museum in London.

17th century Italian school.Christ.Chiselled bronze.Old restorations on both arms. Measurements: 24 cm.Round sculpture representing Christ, still alive, crucified and raising his gaze towards heaven. Formally, the anatomy of Christ stands out, the verism of his anatomical features captured with verism and expressiveness, as well as his position forced by the fastening of three nails. The cloth of purity, with a knot on the right side, is notable for its marked folds and even movement. Throughout the depiction of Christ crucified, the figure of Christ on the Cross was humanised, showing the suffering and pathos with a great sense of naturalism, while at the same time proclaiming redemption and salvation.

Italian Christ, mid-16th century. After models by GUGLIELMO DELLA PORTA (Italy, ca. 1550-1577).Sculpture in gilded bronze and silver cross.Size: 12 x 10 cm (Christ); 45 x 23 cm (cross).The Christ presented here follows the model of the crucifix by Sebastiano Torrigiani, in turn derived from a model by his master Guglielmo della Porta, which is in the church of San Giacomo Maggiore in Bologna. The figure of Christ crucified with only three nails accentuates the drama of the scene. This theatricality is enhanced by the elongation of the upper limbs, which support the full weight of the figure's body.Guglielmo della Porta was a renowned Italian sculptor, architect and restorer of Mannerism. The son of Cristoforo della Porta and his wife Caterina, he received his artistic education from his uncle Giovanni Battista della Porta in Genoa. He worked for the cathedral of Genoa during his early years of artistic training as early as 1531 together with his brother Giacomo and under the direction of his uncle on the statues in the chapel of Saint John the Baptist. In 1537 he moved to Rome and became a pupil of Michelangelo, thus gaining a greater number of commissions. An example of this is the bust he executed for Pope Paul III in 1547, after his death, and the tomb of Saint Peter, which was his principal work, which occupied him from 1555 to 1575, although it was later revised by Bernini. His career as a sculptor to the Farnese court was due to his contact with Mario Maccarone, the overseer of papal building projects. In 1540, as Della Porta he designed the tomb of Vincenzo degli Ubaldi in the church of Santi XII Apostoli. Della Porta was a lay brother of the Cistercians and was called from 1547 to the papal coinage. Among other things, his studio was commissioned to complement the legs of Farnese's torso, which was found in 1546. The result was so convincing to his contemporaries that on Michelangelo's own advice he was approved to link the ancient limbs of the statue, which had been excavated. Today his works are to be found in various places of great historical and artistic significance, such as his sculpture of Moses in San Lorenzo de Fiori, or for example his works in the Giuliano chapel of the cathedral of Genoa, in Santa Maria del Popolo, and his bust of Paul III which is in the Museum of Capodimonte.

A Chola bronze figure of Shiva as Chandrashekhara South India, 12th/ 13th Centurystanding in sampada on a circular base, his principal right hand in abhayamudra and left hand resting below his waist, his upper hands holding the axe and antelope, wearing a short dhoti secured by a multi-stranded belt with festoons and sashes, adorned with elaborate jewellery, his face with serene expression and almond-shaped eyes, straight aquiline nose, the hair piled into a high headdress, backed by a halo, mounted on a stand 18.3 cm. high excluding standFootnotes:Provenance George Sheridan Collection, formed between the 1950s and 80s.Private US collection. George Sheridan (1923-2008) was one of the founding members of the artistic community of Deià in the Balearic island of Mallorca, among such illustrious residents as the poet Robert Graves. His painting style reflects the colour and rugged beauty of his adopted home in Spain, having spent many years working as an artist in London and Paris after leaving his native America. His influences included the art of India and the Himalayas, which he collected avidly and whose themes he incorporated into his work. He frequented Spink and Son whenever he was in London, becoming close friends with the legendary head of the Indian and Southeast Asian department, Anthony Gardiner, from whom he bought regularly. When in Paris he would buy from the leading dealers of the day, Jean-Claude Moreau-Gobard and Josette Schulmann. His eye for Asian art extended from the Buddhist sculpture of Gandhara, Nepal and Tibet, through classical Indian sculpture to the magical world of Indian miniatures.Having come to power in the mid-ninth century in the Tanjore District, Tamil Nadu, the Cholas built an empire that dominated the region and became the locus for great strides in bronze casting, resulting in elegant figures that balanced idealised forms with naturalistic modelling (see P. Pratapaditya, Indian Sculpture, Volume 2, Los Angeles, 1998, p. 230). The present lot demonstrates these elegant forms, depicting Shiva as Chandrashekhara, 'Lord of the crescent moon', a connection forged by their shared symbolism of fertility and healing. A sculpture of Shiva Chandrashekhara dated to the 10th Century is in the Brooklyn Museum, New York, acc. no. 2007.2. Another example also featuring Parvati and dated to the 13th Century can be seen in P. Pratapaditya, Indian Sculpture, Volume 2, Los Angeles, 1998, pp. 284-5, cat. 152.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ** VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

The present lot may depict Uchchaihshravas, the vehicle of the god Indra. Uchchaihshravas is most commonly depicted with seven heads, however this number is subject to change, as evidenced by the changing heads of the horse/horses who guide Surya's chariot (the number is most commonly seven, however images of him with a nine-headed horse also occur, such as in the lot sold in these rooms, Bonhams, Islamic and Indian Art Online Sale, 18 May 2022, lot 226). The discrepancy in the number of heads featured within the present lot may be due to the difficulty of producing such a complicated scheme via the medium of sculpture.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ** VAT on imported items at a preferential rate of 5% on Hammer Price and the prevailing rate on Buyer's Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

STATUETTE DE MANJUSHRI EN ALLIAGE DE CUIVRE DORÉNépal, XIVe siècleA RARE GILT COPPER ALLOY FIGURE OF MANJUSHRINepal, 14th centuryHolding his hands in the teaching mudra, he gently looks down and enters a state of meditation, while a slight contrapuntal sway of his head and torso, his sword (now missing) and sutra emerge from two prominent lotus flowers by his shoulders and seated on a double lotus base. 12cm (4 3/4in) high.Footnotes:Provenance:Robert Rousset, Paris (1901-1981), acquired from The Handicrafts & Handlooms Exports Corporation of India Ltd., New Delhi, 17 August 1965Jean-Pierre Rousset, Paris (1936-2021)Manjushri is one of the most important and popularly invoked bodhisattvas in Mahayana and Vajrayana Buddhism. The Bodhisattva of Perfected Wisdom is represented here in a gem-like gilded image.The sculpting of the figure's powerful yet supple physique and the exquisite detailing of his regalia are hallmarks of Newari master craftsmen from the Kathmandu Valley working for Tibetan patrons. His robust body type and broad forehead conform to classic Nepalese aesthetics, as does the compressed lotus base with plump petals and ornamented lower register embellished with inset flower motifs. His necklace, armbands, and earrings, bedecked with inset stones supported by double beaded bands, complete the sculpture as a testament to the artist's skill.Another example is a 14th century gilt-bronze Maitreya or Manjushri in Drigung Monastery (U.von Schroeder, Buddhist Sculpture in Tibet, Vol.II, Hong Kong, 2001, pp.1032-1033, no.256D-E). Compare with a closely related Manjushri published in U.von Schroeder, Indo-Tibetan Bronzes, Hong Kong, 1981, p.376, no.100C.Manjushri est l'un des bodhisattvas les plus importants et les plus souvent invoqués dans le bouddhisme Mahayana et Vajrayana. Le bodhisattva de la sagesse parfaite est représenté ici dans une image dorée semblable à un joyau.Le travail du corps de la statuette est à la fois puissant et souple, et la précision des détails de ses insignes royaux est la marque de fabrique des maîtres artisans newaris de la vallée de Katmandou travaillant pour des mécènes tibétains. Son corps robuste et son large front sont conformes à l'esthétique népalaise classique, tout comme la base décorée d'un lotus aux pétales charnus et le registre inférieur orné de motifs floraux incrustés. Son collier, ses brassards et ses boucles d'oreilles, ornés de pierres incrustées sur des bandes perlées doubles, complètent la sculpture comme un témoignage de l'habileté de l'artiste.Un autre exemple est un Maitreya ou Manjushri en bronze doré du XIVe siècle au monastère de Drigung (U.von Schroeder, Buddhist Sculpture in Tibet, Vol.II, Hong Kong, 2001, pp.1032-1033, no.256D-E).

STATUE DE DIVINITÉ FÉMININE EN GRÈS, POSSIBLEMENT DURGACambodge, époque angkorienne, style du Koh Ker, Xe siècleA SANDSTONE FIGURE OF A FEMALE DEITY, POSSIBLY DURGACambodia, Angkor Period, Koh Ker style, 10th centuryThe robust figure stands in samabhanga, elegantly carved with hour-glass form torso, with full breast above delicately incised lines to indicate slight rolls of skin and sumptuous wide hips. She wears a long straight garment (sampot) flaring slightly at the bottom, with a large curling flap and incised vertical lines to indicate the fine pleats, stand. 90cm (35 1/2in) high. (2).Footnotes:Provenance: Robert Rousset, Paris (1901-1981), acquired from Smit Gallery, Bangkok, 19 April 1965Jean-Pierre Rousset, Paris (1936-2021)Published, Illustrated and Exhibited:Sherman Lee, Ancient Cambodian Sculpture, Asia House Gallery, New York, October 1969, p.50, no.12The Koh Ker temple complex, approximately 80km northeast of Angkor, was the capital of the Khmer Empire from 928-944 under the kings Jayavarman IV and Harshavarman II. Koh Ker's sculptural style is distinct from those developed in Angkor's immediate vicinity. The stone sculpture, often monumental in size, is imbued with a heightened sense of movement and a suppleness of form. The broad flap of pleated fabric that hangs over the sash at the waist, a fashion which first appeared in the last quarter of the ninth century, then became the convention in the tenth century during the Koh Ker period and can also be seen on the male figure from Banteay Srei.Given the dominance of the Shaivite cult throughout the Koh Ker temple complex, it is most likely that this four-armed figure would have been Durga – the wrathful female aspect of Shiva. Compare with the complete cast bronze figure of Durga in the Cleveland Museum of Art (1996.27), and another fragmentary figure described as Durga in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York (2003.605). Also compare with another female deity in the Linden-Museum, Stuttgart. The hieratic monumentality of this rare female deity is balanced against the soft fleshy skin and flair of the curling flap that Jean Boisselier, in his review of Koh Ker sculptural style (Asie du Sud-Est, 1966, p.248) characterised as 'dynamic equilibrium'.Le complexe de temples de Koh Ker, situé à environ 80 km au nord-est d'Angkor, a été la capitale de l'empire khmer de 928 à 944 sous les rois Jayavarman IV et Harshavarman II. Le style sculptural de Koh Ker est distinct de ceux développés dans le voisinage immédiat d'Angkor. La sculpture en pierre, souvent de taille monumentale, est imprégnée d'un sens aigu du mouvement et d'une souplesse des formes. Le large pan d'étoffe plissée qui pend sur la ceinture à la taille, une mode apparue dans le dernier quart du IXe siècle, puis devenue la convention au Xe siècle pendant la période Koh Ker, est également visible sur la statue masculine de Bantreay Srei. Compte tenu de la prédominance du culte shivaïte dans l'ensemble du complexe de temples de Koh Ker, il est fort probable que cette statue à quatre bras soit Durga, l'aspect féminin courroucé de Shiva. Comparée avec la fonte complète de Durga en bronze du Musée d'art de Cleveland (1996.27), et avec une autre statue fragmentaire décrite comme étant Durga au Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York (2003.605). Comparée également avec une autre divinité féminine au Musée Linden, Stuttgart.La monumentalité hiératique de cette rare divinité féminine est contrebalancée par la douceur de la peau charnue et l'élasticité du rabat enroulé que Jean Boisselier, dans son analyse du style sculptural de Koh Ker (Asie du Sud-Est, 1966, p.248), qualifie d'« équilibre dynamique ».柬埔寨 吳哥時期 科克風格 十世紀 砂岩或杜爾加立像來源:巴黎Robert Rousset(1901-1981)舊藏,於1965年4月19日得自曼谷Smit藝廊巴黎Jean-Pierre Rousset(1936-2021)舊藏展覽著錄:Sherman Lee, 《Ancient Cambodian Sculpture》,Asia House畫廊,紐約,1969年10月,頁50,編號12科克寺廟建築群位於吳哥東北約八十公里,928至944年間為闍耶跋摩四世與哈沙跋摩二世統治下高棉帝國之首府。科克雕塑風格與吳哥鄰近地區截然不同,常見砂岩雕像尺寸較大,造型靈活並充滿強烈動感。褶襉圍裙寛闊的上擺向外翻出垂在腰間,此服飾最早出現於九世紀下半葉,至十世紀科克時期已成慣例,於女王宮內神像上亦可見。 鑑於崇拜濕婆之風主導科克寺廟群,故此四臂像應為杜爾迦—濕婆女神憤怒相。比較一例完整的杜爾加銅像,藏於克利夫蘭藝術博物館(1996.27)、另見一例杜爾加像殘件,藏於紐約大都會藝術博物館 (2003.605)。再比較一例女神像,藏於斯圖加特林登博物館。 此尊罕見女神像極具宗教藝術的神聖宏偉,與其柔順飽滿的肌膚及摺裙的捲邊上擺互起平衡作用,Jean Boisselier在《Asie du Sud-Est》,1966年,頁248的科克寺雕塑風格評論中稱之為「動態平衡」。For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
