*ISABEL LAMBERT RAWSTHORNE (NÉE NICHOLAS) (1912-1992) Double portrait circa 1960s, oil on canvas, 60cm x 50cmProvenance: The picture was inherited by descent from mother to daughter. The mother was friends with both Constant Lambert and Alan Rawsthorne (two of Isabel's husbands), as part of the same music circle. She remained friends with Isabel right up her twilight years when she lived in a cottage in Essex. Indeed the daughter vividly recalls visits, and the kind donation of old canvases to her brother as a young artist.Note: Isabel has been subjected to relative obscurity, probably due to her name changes from three marriages, and from being dismissed by society as merely the striking studio model, lover or muse of artistic icons such as Alberto Giacometti, Pablo Picasso, and Francis Bacon. Despite highly acclaimed exhibitions in the 50s and 60s, she has only recently received serious renewed recognition, which is now gaining pace and several paintings have entered public collections as a result.From a humble background she studied at the Liverpool College of Art, later winning a scholarship to the Royal Academy in London. After working with Jacob Epstein she moved to Paris to study at the Academie de la Grande Chamiere and associated with Giacometti, Tristan Tzara and the Surrealist Circle. Throughout her life she was within leading artistic circles, be they composers, dancers, artists or writers. It is notable that she became a respected scenery and costume designer for ballet and opera productions at the Royal Opera House.From 1949 she and Bacon showcased their figurative brand of modern art at the Hanover Gallery and exhibited in the ICA and British Council. Indeed the critic David Sylvester ranked her alongside Bacon, Lucien Freud, John Craxton and Peter Lanyon.It was during the 1960s and 1970s, with the deaths of Giacometti and her third husband, that the ethereal double portraits emerged and where the distinctive dead and sculpted likenesses evolved. This painting is almost certainly one of a portrait series of her late husband Alan Rawsthorne and his sister Barbara. The spectral faces dissolve into a void-like background, capturing the fragility of the human body. The doubling effect suggests the mirrored ballet studios in which she drew dancers at their craft. The grainy texture, created with sand highlighted with hints of pink, yellow and white, emphasises the shafts of light and the window behind.

Joel epitomised the elegance and innovation of early 20th century furniture design. Her works are known for their distinct art deco style; the designs were modern yet functional, using high-quality woods and detailed joinery; examples can be found in the V&A and Geffrye museums in London. Her great-nephew Clive Stewart-Lockhart has published, this year (2025), a new biography on Joel to mark the 40th year of her passing - showcasing her design, vision and ever-lasting impact on British furniture design.

â–² Edward Burra (1905-1976) The processionwith 'E J Burra' estate stamp u.r., pencil and watercolour, with a pencil drawing of dancers verso65 x 50cm, unframedProvenance: Sotheby's, London, 'Works from the Estate of Edward Burra, Lady Ritchie of Dundee and Associated Owners', 3 July 2002, lot 256;the property of a private collector.Edward Burra was known for his surreal, satirical depictions of modern life. Born in London and raised in Rye, Sussex, he battled chronic rheumatoid arthritis, which shaped both his lifestyle and artistic practice. Despite physical limitations, he developed a distinctive style, favouring large-scale watercolours. His early work focused on urban nightlife, revelling in the grit and glamour of brothels, bars and cabaret scenes.Burra’s fascination with Hispanic culture led him to Spain in 1933, during the turbulent years of the Second Spanish Republic (1931-1939). The country was undergoing radical political change - secular reforms, social unrest and rising tensions that would eventually lead to civil war. He was captivated by Spain's dramatic cultural traditions, particularly its religious processions, bullfights and theatrical Catholic rituals. Spanish art profoundly influenced him, from the eerie mysticism of El Greco to the stark realism of Goya and Zurbarán. Burra immersed himself in the culture, learning Spanish and surrounding himself with Spanish literature. He also travelled to Mexico, where the vibrant folk traditions and imagery of the Day of the Dead reinforced his fascination with ritual and the macabre.His undated drawing 'The Procession' showcases his signature compositional technique. The eye is led diagonally from the upper left to the lower right, where figures seem to move beyond the paper’s edge. This sense of momentum is key to his later religious-themed works. Burra’s cartoonist-like approach is evident - while most of the piece remains an outline, he selectively colours a few figures, particularly a striking, red-skinned face, adding both drama and mystery. This technique teases the viewer, leaving them wondering how the final piece might have looked, a hallmark of Burra’s ability to balance intrigue and narrative depth.Condition ReportThere are several very small, repaired tears to the upper edge. A few light spots of foxing starting to emerge. Very light surface dirt. There is a little pale yellow discolouration in the lower right corner.

▲ David Hockney OM CH RA (b.1937) 'Pool Made With Paper and Blue Ink' for the book 'Paper Pools' (MCA Tokyo 234)lithograph in colours, 1980, signed and dated 'Hockney 80' in pencil l.r., and numbered '681/1000', published by Tyler Graphics Ltd., Mount Kisco, New York, with blind stamp sheet 27 x 24cmWhen thinking about David Hockney, the subject of the swimming pool is one that comes to mind. It has become one of the defining motifs of his artistic career and an iconic image of modern art. The theme recurs frequently in his paintings, drawings, photographs and prints.Hockney’s fascination with pools began in 1964 when he flew over Los Angeles and was captivated by the vivid expanse of blue pools dotting the Californian landscape - an image starkly different from the scenery of Britain he had left behind. To Hockney, the swimming pool was a representation of pleasure and leisure in the 1960s, and a joyous image to reproduce. Additionally, it provided a creative opportunity to explore the play of light and reflections on water, shaped by ripples, curves and shadows cast by gentle breezes or the movement of swimmers.This motif repeatedly surfaced in his work over the years, including the present lithograph titled 'Pool Made With Paper and Blue Ink for a Book'. This piece was created for the special edition book 'Paper Pools' by David Hockney, edited by Nikos Stangos and published in 1980 by Thames & Hudson. The book delves into Hockney’s 'Paper Pool' series, comprising twenty-nine paper pulp artworks that he created in 1978 while staying with his friend, the printmaker Ken Tyler. Inspired by this new medium, Hockney used Tyler’s swimming pool as the subject for this lithograph. He meticulously studied the pool at various times of the day and night, observing and recording the interplay of light and colour, through drawings and photographs.Though smaller in scale compared to Hockney’s large oil paintings, this lithograph is equally vibrant and demonstrates meticulous precision in its execution. The image was initially hand-drawn by the artist and then printed in six colours from three lithographic limestones and three aluminium plates. This lot is pencil signed and numbered '681' from a limited edition of 1,000 prints with an additional 122 proofs. Condition ReportFramed: 58 x 49.5cmPresents well overall. In our opinion the colours are bright. Slight time staining to the margins. There is some acid discolouration to the extreme edges.

â–² Terence Cuneo (1907-1996) The German surrender at Lüneburg Heath, 4 May 1945signed and dated 'CUNEO/FEBRUARY 1969' l.l., oil on canvas 101.5 x 126.5cm;together with a collection of correspondence relating to the picture between Mr Haworth, of James Haworth & Brother Ltd., and others, including the 1st Viscount Montgomery of Alamein;later correspondence between Mr John Haworth and David McCleave (qty.)Provenance: Mr Haworth;the David and Pam McCleave Collection of Modern British Art.This painting depicts a monumental moment in history, captured at the time with photographs. No official war artist was commissioned at the time, and Field Marshal Montgomery was said to be disappointed that there was nothing more substantial than a few photographs to portray this important meeting. He had mentioned this to Garfield Weston (director of Fortnum & Mason) who then discussed it with James Haworth in 1968. It was Haworth who suggested Terence Cuneo as just the artist to recreate the scene, as can be seen in the accompanying correspondence sold with this lot. Cuneo preferred to work from life drawings, but agreed to proceed with the commission and it is said that 'Monty' was delighted with the painting. Originally, Garfield Weston intended for the painting to be displayed in the restaurant of Fortnum & Mason, but the acquisition did not proceed as planned. Consequently, the painting stayed with the Haworth family until 2006, when it was acquired by David McCleave.Condition ReportFramed: 120 x 145cmSlight rubbing to the edges.
