Attributed to Juan Patricio Morlete (San Miguel el Grande, Guanajuato, Mexico, 1713/1715 - Mexico, 1772"Portrait of Manuel López-Pintado y Almonacid"Oil on canvas.111,5 x 97 cm.Juan Patricio Morlete Ruiz was one of the greatest painters in Mexico during the second half of the 18th century. Although his biography was little known until the 20th century, his work began to be more widely disseminated through various collections, which made it possible to learn more about him. Morlete, with extensive oeuvre in Mexico, is particularly known for his series of caste paintings. The Museo de América in Madrid has a still life by his hand (inv. 2021/04/01).He founded the Academy of Painting in 1753, together with his teacher José de Ibarra, Miguel de Cabrera, José de Alcíbar and other illustrious figures. Two years earlier, in 1751, he had been part of the group of artists who inspected the image of the Virgin of Guadalupe. These two events reflect the artistic and cultural importance, as well as the social and professional recognition of the painter.The iconographic themes of his artistic production are varied. Urban views, devotional and allegorical motifs, sacred history and several portraits known to date, including those of several viceroys and a portrait of King Charles III dated 1760.Focusing on the painting we present here - and delving deeper into the identity of the sitter - the clothing and important coat worn by the sitter in our work behove us to mention two paintings on canvas that we can compare stylistically and help us to date and geographically locate the painting to the first half of the 18th century in New Spain. We are talking about the portrait attributed to the painter Juan Rodríguez Juárez of Viceroy Juan Vázquez de Acuña y Bejerano (1658-1734), Viceroy of New Spain between 1722 and 1734; and the portrait of Viceroy Pedro Cebrián y Agustín (1687-1752), Viceroy of New Spain between 1741 and 1746.The attire and accessories of the sitter in our painting are comparable in quality, materials and design to those worn in the portraits of the Viceroys of the 18th century. From this we can deduce that the sitter enjoys a very high social status, possibly among the nobility or great merchants of globalisation.It should also be noted that our noble and illustrious personage holds a magnifying glass in his left hand. This element and the book of cartography resting on the table next to the silver inkwell with its quills relate the sitter to maritime activity. In this sense, moreover, the design of the decorative patterns of the garments reminds us of the waves of the sea and the symbols on the sleeves are related to the four cardinal points.The proposal suggested to satisfy the mystery of the identity of the man portrayed is that of Manuel López-Pintado y Almonacid, Admiral of the Fleet of the Indies, who was born in Toledo in 1677 and died in Seville in 1745.A portrait of Manuel López-Pintado, dated 21 December 1730, is kept in the Naval Museum in Madrid.As the Royal Academy of History informs us, "The great wealth of López-Pintado, a mixture of sailor, soldier and businessman, originated from the title of silver-master granted to him by Sebastián de Talledo in Madrid in 1704. [...] He was a deputy of the royal fleets until he obtained the title of admiral of the Fleet of the Indies in 1715-1716, and in that post he acquired a large fortune that enabled him to invest in land, buying and improving various estates and mills in different towns in the province of Seville. [...] In 1737, Philip V granted him the title of Marquis of Torre Blanca del Aljarafe, with the previous viscountcy of Cabrejas". Reference bibliography:- Caño Ortigosa, José Luis. (n.d.).

Pablo Picasso (Spanish, 1881-1973). Graphite sketch on graph paper titled "Self Portrait with Marie-Therese Walter," depicting two portraits along the front of the artist and his lover and model, Marie-Therese Walter (French, 1909-1977). She was the mother of their daughter Maya Widmaier-Picasso (1935-2022). The verso of this piece renders several sketches of various objects including a wardrobe cabinet, a ball, a cage, a snail, a human figure, a dog, and an elegant hound voiding his bowels.Provenance: The Estate of Marie-Therese Walter, France; Private collection, Minnesota.Literature: Josep Palau I Fabre, "Pare Picasso," Barcelona: Ediciones Poligrafa, 1977.Lot Essay:A multi-faceted artist who worked as a sculptor, painter, printmaker, and theater designer, Pablo Picasso is known as the co-founder of the Cubist movement and regarded as one of the most influential artists of the 20th century.The artist was born on October 25, 1881 in Malaga, Spain to Don Jose Ruiz y Blasco (1838–1913) and Maria Picasso y Lopez. His father was a naturalist painter of birds and game as well as a professor of art at the School of Crafts and a curator of a local museum. From the early age of seven, Picasso received formal traditional artistic training from his father, copying work from old masters and rendering the human body through the use of live models and plaster casts.This training took place throughout Picasso’s childhood. In 1891, his family moved to A Coruna where they resided for four years while his father took a position at the School of Fine Arts there. Picasso’s artistic capabilities grew, and even Ruiz claimed that his son had surpassed his own talents. In 1895, his sister, Lola, died from diptheria, and the family moved once again, this time to Barcelona. As a professor at the School of Fine Arts, his father persuaded the institution to let Picasso take the entrance exam for advanced classes at the mere age of thirteen. Though this process typically took a month to complete, Picasso finished in a short week and was accepted into the advanced courses. At age sixteen, Picasso’s father and uncle sent him to the Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando in Madrid. However, soon after enrollment Picasso stopped attending classes but was instead invigorated by attractions such as the Prado with artistic works by masters Diego Velazquez, Francisco Goya, Francisco Zurbaran, and El Greco.By the time Picasso married his first wife, Olga Stepanovna Khokhlova, in 1918, he had risen to success and acquired some fame and fortune as a forerunner of the Cubist movement, though this contrasted greatly with his humble “starving artist†beginnings and continuing bohemian lifestyle. Khokhlova came from high society and introduced her new husband to formal dinner parties and life of the rich in Paris during the 1920s. This clashed with Picasso’s own world views and inevitably led to the couple’s demise.A long-standing secret affair began in 1927 between Picasso and the then 17-year-old Marie-Thérèse Walter. In 1935, Marie became pregnant and it was then that a friend told Khokhlova about Picasso’s mistress. Khokhlova and Picasso separated, never divorcing, until Khokhlova’s death in 1955. On September 5, 1935, Marie and Picasso’s child, Maria de la Concepcion, called "Maya", was born. Though Picasso financially supported Marie and Maya throughout his life, he never married her and had a number of affairs with other women.Marie was a model and muse for many of Picasso’s paintings, sculptures, and drawings including the sketch seen in this lot. She is typically portrayed as bright and blonde in contrast to the weeping woman persona of Picasso’s other lover, Dora Maar. Though the sketch on the recto of the artist and his lover is masterful and typical of Picasso’s greatest works, the verso renders drawings of dogs, a snail, and other random objects created for the amusement of his daughter, Maya. Both sides demonstrate Picasso’s virtuoso and ability to be playful yet skillful in his artistic works.Height: 5 3/4 in x width: 3 3/4 in.Condition: The drawing is in good condition overall. The drawing is executed on graph paper and has a deckled edge along the right. There is a paper loss along the lower right. A repair to a 1 inch tear that goes from the upper right edge, diagonally downward. Some areas of skinning along the upper left and right corners. Some light surface soiling. Some minor losses and one small tear along the lower edge. The drawing bears light impressions of the drawings on the verso. The drawing is not framed.

The Smiths: A typed letter, hand-signed by Morrissey in blue crayon, written to Mike Hinc of All Trade Booking, dated September 19th [1984], regarding plans for forthcoming live show bookings, reading 'Dear Mike, Thank you for sending the rider. You understand that I no longer have any physical need for gladioli or small greenary [sic] (passe, man), but instead, an insatiable biological need for a small tree. Please include this paltry request on Irish rider (indeed all future riders). The tree itself should be imminently swingable, at least four feet in length, minus thorns or anything likely to maime [sic] a delicate artistic hand.Please send me a detailed list of the finalised Irish dates. It had always been group policy never to return to any given venue, so this is why we frown at the Ulster Hall. I wish something could be done. Is it too late? We have no real passion to visit Londonderry. Can you let me know the finalised ticket prices for all Irish dates? Provenance: From the personal collection of the late Mike Hinc, former booking agent at Rough Trade for Morrissey, The Smiths and others. The lot forms part of an extensive archive of related items on this sale, consigned by the family of Mike Hinc.We feel that the February-March tour should be mammoth. The crew need details of venues as soon as possible. We plan to accommodate a huge screen onstage (this was roughly planned for the three upcoming gigs, but stage area was deemed too small). So although we'd like all venues (practically) to be stand up's, there must be stage space for a vast screen. Sergeant Featherstone can explain further.The main purpose of the Feb-March tour will be to promote the 2nd LP ['Meat is Murder']. If LP is not released by mid-February, we are in deep trouble. I want to avoid antics of Feb-March tour '84 where LP was released mid-tour.Instead of playing two (or more!) nights at a London venue, can we not play a London date early in the tour and London date at latter half, playing two separate venues? Also, for Manchester, can we wheedle in a concert hall date and a club date?Please think about these two points.RT [Rough Trade] release a compilation LP mid-November of radio sessions, but otherwise a record release before the end of this year is unlikely.As a matter of total trivia, although waves splash abound, The Smiths as a unit have never been so unified and determined. Plus, we still get heaps of fan mail (especially me). Love (I expect), Morrissey.' A second typed letter, (facsimile text and signature), dated May 21st 1985, reads: 'Dear Mike, The final Spanish date was the worst 24 hours of our career. As a direct result, please discard any notions of the Smith ever doing any European hikes. Enough is enough.We will never work with Stuart James again. Please produce a choice of three tour managers for America. We can quite easily conduct swift interviews in Manchester and finally brand the luckless candidate.We will never take a flight on a gig day; our ears are precious. We rely on them. Please apply this to the US jaunt.It was good to see you in Madrid, but clearly Scott left the country without altering his notions of US Tour Presidency. I rely on you fully to clean this issue up and get it out of the way.To re-tell the San Sebastian incident is to re-live it. Naturally, our Spanish promoters turned into our worst enemies. We were inches away from imprisonment. Everybody in the entourage deserted the group.We do not want a caterer for the US tour. If the promoters don't provide ample basic food, we're going home to our Mothers.I think that demanding there be no barriers and very modest 'heavies' at US gigs is a wholly reasonable request. The absolute purpose of this tour is to incite stage invasions.Please let me know the situation with James. Has a second 'major' group been added to Dublin? Please confirm with Scott that Jim Connelly is available for America. After all, we need at least one person to be on our side.Finally, our strongest thanks to Hilary for all her brainpower throughout the Spanish hotel siege. Too sincerely, Morrissey.'

Josefa Sánchez (active between 1639 and 1652, possibly in Castile).Carved and painted wooden cross for a monk / nun's cell.  At the feet of the crucified Christ, we find the representation of Saint Anthony with the Child Jesus.56.7 x 37.3 cm.Attached is a certificate from Dr. Cathy Hall-van den Elsen, dated December 20, 2024. Numerous women artists in this and any other field of art and society throughout history have faced indifference, ignorance and collective contempt, most of them will never be recognized, as they have fallen into inexorable anonymity. The artist, María Josefa Sánchez, is no exception to this unfair rule. Fortunately, however, in recent years the work of women artists of great renown such as María Josefa Sánchez has been revisited, shining the spotlight where shadows have always reigned. This arduous task, made more difficult by the scarcity of information, was begun by Mrs. Carmen G. Perez-Neu in the case of our painter (and many others) in her book “Universal Gallery of Women Painters” (1964), a start that seemed the beginning of a long journey through the desert, but that has borne fruit.  In fact, welcome news came recently of the acquisition, by the Meadows Museum of Dallas, of a cross for private worship by Josefa Sánchez, in the summer of 2024. This piece, which was purchased along with a still life by Josefa de Ayala, “demonstrates her artistic skill [and] highlights her role in shaping the religious expression and spirituality of the period,” the museum states in the release announcing the acquisition.Both the cross (inv. MM.2024.10) from the Meadows, a museum that “houses one of the largest and most complete collections of Spanish art outside Spain”, and especially another magnificent painted cross, signed and dated 1646, exhibited at the Art Institute of Chicago (inv. 2018.52), have an undoubted resemblance to the cross we present in this auction. María Josefa Sánchez (active between 1639 and 1652, probably in Castile) specialized, in fact, in the production of crosses like this one, popular objects for private worship in Spain and Latin America, widely used in 17th century devotional painting.The first artwork by Sánchez, which put her on the map of relevant artists of the Spanish Golden Age was made known by José de Mesa and Teresa Gisbert in their publication, in 1970, for the Spanish Art Archive (volume 43, no. 169). As the art historian Fernando Collar de Cáceres points out in his article “Sobre algunas cruces pintadas de María Josefa Sánchez” (Pursuant to some painted crosses by María Josefa Sánchez) (1989), the aim of this publication was not to extol the quality of the piece, a cross signed and dated 1639, but the “contribution of the name of this unknown artist to the meager repertoire of Spanish painters”. In addition to numerous iconographic and stylistic contributions by Collar -we strongly recommend reading the article- the historian reveals that this first piece ended up being two: a signed copy located in the Monastery of San Antonio el Real in Segovia, with a slender, upright Christ that “responds to late 16th-century models [such as] those of Tristán or Bartolomé de Cárdenas,” with Adam's skull at the lower end of the cross and the Immaculate Conception between the two; and the second one is the painted Christ of the Convent of Santo Domingo el Real, from 1649, with, at His feet, “a young woman dressed in white and kneeling on a weightless sphere wrapped in fire [who] receives into her heart the blood that flows from the Christ's side”.This cross is accompanied by Dr. Cathy Hall-van den Elsen's certificate detailing the small but rich corpus by Josefa Sánchez, an artist whose legacy arouses great interest, as evidenced by her presence in exhibitions such as “Spain: art and empire in the Golden Age” (San Diego Museum of Art, 2019) and “Leaving her mark: a history of women artists in Europe, 1400-1800” (Baltimore Museum of Art and Art Gallery of Ontario, 2024).This lot has a valid export license from the Spanish Ministry of Culture. Reference Bibliography:- Collar de Cáceres, Fernando.

Juan Baptista Franconio. Late 16th century, based on the casting of Michelangelo Buonarroti's model."Christ"Gilded bronze sculpture with silver perizonium.22.5 x 21 cm.Cross Size: 52,5 x 29 cm.Magnificent gilded bronze Christ. This is one of the pieces obtained by casting bronze from the model by Michelangelo, which Juan Baptista Franconio, an Italian silversmith, brought to Seville in 1597 from Rome, where he settled.The significance of the Christ by Michelangelo was such that it was one of the inspirational works of art that led Juan Martínez Montañés to create his Christ of the Chalices. Francisco Pacheco recounts this in his posthumously published "Art of Painting" in Seville in 1649.He mentions that Martínez Montañés made this sculpture following the posture of another Christ, describing it as follows: "Michaelangelo, the illustrious light of painting and sculpture, made a crucifix with four nails for a model, which we can now enjoy. Juan Baptista Franconio, a brave silversmith, brought it to this city, cast in bronze, in 1597, and after enriching all painters and sculptors with it, he gave the original to Pablo de Céspedes, a canon of the Holy Church of Córdoba, who held it with great esteem around his neck." It is now known that the original is, for the moment, unaccounted for.Pacheco also specifies in his writing that he applied on January 17th (1600) a matte polychrome to the first of these four-nail crucifixes he cast.One of the painters whose work was enriched by being able to capture such a sculptural marvel on canvas, was Diego Velázquez, due to family ties, as he was Pacheco's son-in-law. In Anselmo López Morais' article “Crucifijo de Miguel Ángel (Un ejemplar en colección particular de Orense)” (Crucifix by Michelangelo (A specimen in a private collection in Ourense))' the 'two portraits he made in 1620 in Seville of Mother Jerónima de la Fuente (one in the Prado Museum in Madrid and another, where [the crucifix] can be seen clearly, in the Fernández Araoz Collection, also in Madrid)' are mentioned.Precisely this article is very useful in order to contrast similarities between this sculpture and the one mentioned by Michelangelo cast by Franconio. Among other things, it states: "The news from Pacheco was collected by Manuel Gómez-Moreno who, intrigued for a long time by a series of metal images obtained by casting, attributes them, with many doubts, to the Granada sculptor Alonso Cano, but later identifies them as those obtained from the Crucifix by Michelangelo mentioned in the 'Art of Painting'."López Morais continues quoting Gómez-Moreno to define the detailed characteristics of the 22 cm Crucifix: "it imposes by its very sobriety of resources, an imposing start that enlarges such a small work, [and] the body hangs limp, with absolute mass symmetry, as in real life; the head, which is small, falls on the chest and leans slightly to the right; the hands contract, clenched; the left leg crosses over the right, as revealed by Saint Brigid, flattening the calf upon contact, and the foot is deformed by the pressure of the nail; the almost embryonic nature of his virile organs matches a narrowness of hips that gives predominance to the chest over the other members; the belly sinks, and the complexion, emaciated, accentuates bony reliefs rather than muscles, except in the arms where tension makes even the arteries visible, but it is all modelled with unsurpassed delicacy and art."In Spain, there are several known silver or bronze specimens considered to be original castings from Franconio. Originals are found in the Museum of Caminos in Astorga, Palacio de Oriente in Madrid, the Gómez-Moreno Museum in Granada, the Caja de Ahorros de Segovia, the Cathedral of Seville, and the Ducal Palace of Gandía, among others. Some others are unsure whether they were cast from the original or even at that time.The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York has a Christ and the two thieves in its collection with the registration number 37.28a–d, and currently attributes authorship for this figure of Christ as based on a model by Michelangelo Buonarroti. The question arises as to whether it was a casting made in Rome, a hypothesis supported by the context of the set, or whether, like ours, it is one of the examples made from Franconio, which is based, according to the MET, on "the quality of modeling and casting, both crisp and fluid, [which] brings it closer to numerous surviving silver copies in Spain". Reference bibliography:- López Morais, Anselmo.
